It's funny, cause the alt that's used for the Kaptain Spirit Battle is the exact one I looked at all those weeks ago and thought "I'm using this; the color scheme reminds me of his Kaptain outfit."
I kinda always anticipated that. It wouldn't make sense otherwise. Either way, the fact alone that K. Rool has not only his superarmor, but ANOTHER option to power through moves that is independent of the armor is pretty big in itself. I imagine that if you become good at utilizing your armor to anticipate and power through attacks, you'll be able to use the kounter just as easily, making it a good mixup tool. Not to mention using it camp out armor regen, if you're really hurting for the armor.
That's nair's job, though. Counters have never been the best method to escape pressure for most characters because having one baited out can mean death. Nair is still a great option because it'll recover much faster (unless it'll be crack #3, of course).
I'm hoping you're right.
I don't even play Zelda and I would still feel bad for Zelda players.
True, though Bayo wound up negating a large chunk of the roster all by herself.
She may still have an explosive advantage state, but looking at all those nerfs, most of her best stuff loses to shield now. So being cautious, yet not giving her too much respect for the stuff she used to get away with in 4 is the key for everyone.
And then you have people who think that Smash Wii U is dead as well. But it is worth noting that that game fixes up a lot of the problems that Brawl suffered from; Smash Wii U handled the roster balancing better than Brawl, the Autolink Angle is much better, grab immunity periods were added, and stale-move negation is far less penalizing with its knockback reduction penalties.
Yeah, and Bayo telegraphs horizontal witch twist like CRAZY when recovering, meaning KKR should be able to intercept and counter it reliably.
All of this can be true but the sad truth is that all it takes is one oppressive, unfun to watch character to sink the entire game's pro scene.
It would still seem weird for Smash Wii U to die because of Bayonetta. I don't know how active Brawl's competitive scene is, but if it can still live on, regardless of how cheap Brawl Meta Knight is, then there might be hope for Smash Wii U to keep on going.
I mean, I'm sure Brawl events still happen in some places, but the real question is whether or not SSB4 will still have a spot at next year's Evo and I doubt it will at this point.
I guess only time will tell. Accessibility would clearly be the biggest problem in this case.
I feel like the scarier threats are Young Link and Pikachu.

If it has trouble snapping the ledge like the site says, wouldn't caving her skull in with bair be even better?
Almost nothing she does is as safe as it used to be. She can't cancel Bullet Climax until it's fully charged, making it more predictable. She doesn't get more Afterburner Kicks on shield, reducing her recovery mixups and shield pressure. Shielding Heel Slide will give you a big punish no matter what. Witch Twist is slower, and most damning of all is that she's probably the only character to mainly have her landing lag increased instead of decreased. Only her bair got less there, but it's laggier in the air as a trade-off. Even if these are based on E3 observations (since no one seems to be using her in this build at the moment), it's safe to assume her showing there did not prove they were unjustified.
I'm assuming I'll have plenty of chances to test it (just not soon enough, urggghhhh...).
! Happy birthday to one of my favorite villains in gaming! It still feels surreal that he's in, I'll only believe it when I actually get to play as him for the first time! And here's to another congrats to all my fellow Kampaigners who brought him back from the dead!
Since it`s the 24th Anniversary ofSince the original DKC is 24 years old today, this goes the same for our beloved Kommander
, I want to ask you guys a question. I`m sure it has already been discussed in this board before, but what were your first memories with the Kremling King? , Rayman and (the good ones obviously). So I was hungry for more DKC since then. I then went to my GBA emulator and discovered I could finally play the original SNES DKC1 on the GBA. I fully played it, and I arrived at Gankplank Galleon. The music was great, the boss is great and just when I thought I beat him, he caught me off guard and killed me before the start of phase 2 (glad they referenced it in his Ultimate reveal trailer). After I managed to beat him, I really had a big smile on my face. Something about King K Rool really felt special to me, and I began to truly love him as a vilain. He`s smart, he still tries really hard to come with new plans despite them failing and he's goofy. Since then, I became a huge DKC fan due to its amazing controls, amazing and creative level design, challenging difficulty, a lot of charm behind the game and of course, the AMAZING MUSIC by David Wise. I haven't even played DKC2 and DKC3 at this point in time (wish I could tbh ), but I`ll play DKC Tropical Freeze soon. is not just a iconic vilain in the DK series, but he`s also one of my favorite video game villains of all time, up there with Hades from Kid Icarus Uprising and Dr Eggman from the Sonic The Hedgehog series. Obviously, I wantedin the next Smash game (I came really late, but better than never), so when he was shown in the August Direct, I literally scream out of joy.
Wait how are people getting these images?
