Kirby needs to be able to copy more abilities. Like when he swallows items there should be specific powers Kirby gets. Even with smaller Pokemon and Assist Trophies too.
Do you realize how much programming that would require?

Kirby would take the space of at least three potential characters.

Okay from what it looks like, he has all of his same special moves except for Inhale. I did not see that yet. Prob because it's way too early in development. Also....

Sooo damn CUTE!!!

Kirby was overpowered. With the last smash games balancing is getting perfected. Maybe just some adjustments. Like making B-Up more like Ike's

what is this "over powered"? I never needed to buy one of these "over powered"s. heck I still have my "well-timed attacks" and "learn-to-dodge/mind tricks" in my back yard and they've never failed me yet. :troll:

but really Kirby isn't OP.
but if you eat rocks and tree bark as if they were candy like I do, nothing is OP. :ganondorf:

Mike Kirby would still be easy to avoid, probably. It would probably look the same as tabuu's attack.

Freaking LOL saying kirby is overpowered. I've played him since '12 and he hasn't done anything drastic since the first smash bros.

But he could use it three times? Under certain time limit. Also the soundwaves would travel through the stage, getting bigger by every mike scream.

Kirby for high tier MINIMUM! I'm probably gonna main him yet again, but this time I live in the US instead of PR, and in Cali no less! I'm gonna make sure to represent like crazy and develop his new metagame jntil he's banned. Just letting you guys know!

Now if ZSS makes a reappearance... Come on ZSS...

You better not leave me alone, bro. I may not have reshaped the Brawl Kirby metagame, but this is my chance!

I think that since he wasn't effective in brawl unless he was close quarters they should give him a little more priority and allow his moves to come out faster. He really was at a disadvantage distance-wise unless he was able to capture a decent copy from a good opponent with a good projectile.

besides that i would like his air speed to be faster. he's sluggish on the ground and his air speed was slow enough to be predictable. if they could make his air speed as fast as jigglypuffs, then i think he would be more effective. oh more more priority on his moves sound nice too.

i think it'd be neat if kirby got powers based off of his existing kirby powers in his games - i doubt that'd happen, but it'd be cool.

Eat a mario or bowser and get kirby's traditional fire powers - eat a fox or a samus and get the plasma power - i dunno.

That could be fun.

Kirby is an awesome character, I just hope he's fun.

I would like that indeed. Get Plasma, run back and forth (with no tripping! YEAH!), and shoot a Samus-esque blast, or a homing arrow, etc etc... Plus all the other moves, as well. That would make me very happy.

I'm comin' back to rep Kirby as well as soon as this awesome game comes out! Sorry about the 5-month hiatus, fellow Kirby buddies, I just saw Brawl as a dead-end job at this point...

Anyway, only thing I'd want changed in Kirby's arsenal would be his d-tilt. I want the little footslide hit he has in just about all of his games. It would have so much combo potential. Aside from that, I guess they can tinker around with his B attacks, but I wouldn't want anything changed from his smashes or aerials...aside from maybe the speed and priority of them lol.

Kirby's usmash could be altered a bit, imo. Besides that, dsmash and fsmash are good to go.

Looks like his dash is the same as in Brawl. Was kinda hoping the dash would be different to keep with tradition of Kirby always getting a new dash in each edition.

I think they should give Kirby an extra utility with the little star he pops out when he taunts with a power.
the little star should become a throwable item, kinda like Kirby 64.

What I want for his moveset.

More moves from Hammer. When he dashes, he should do the Hammer Spin. And two versions of the airborne Hammer Swing. Simply jumping, he wing the hammer vertically. But, when he jumps after dashing, he swings it horizontally.

Now, for Cutter. On the ground, he should do the cutter combo(Cleaving, Nonstop, Final). hold the B button to throw the Boomerang Blade. in the air, he simply does the Final Cutter.

Also, make his Upward Strong Attack the Stone Uppercut from Return to Dream Land, since he has the ability.

There seems to be alot of good ideas for Kirby so far to add to his gameplay. The one thing about his slowness and lack of priority that people seem to forget is it kinda shows off his cute and innocent appeal. I think all the smash games did a wonderful job representing his adorableness. In the trailer last week there was a shot of Kirby running with his stubby arms in the air trying to keep up with everyone else, so cute ^-^

As for a final smash, ultra sword or and improved cook Kirby would work. I also wouldn't mind seeing the mass attack, when 10 Kirby's pile onto an enemy from said game. It would also add to the cuteness if they said "poyo" while doing so.

Finally, can we have the Melee "hii-aai-iii" back?

☯ Finally Kirby has changed from his Melee appearance to look... much more gummy and edible? I will still have Kirby as my main of course. If he looks this good in Smash Bros, I can't wait to see what he will look like in his games, just imagine what Plasma and Tornado Kirby caps will look like.
