Smash qustions for you guys. With Lucina, should I be focusing on using air attacks when closing the distance, or instead sprint/roll to out maneuver? I have been doing the later, and seems to work (and the former tends to end with me getting smacked out of mid air), but in all the videos I hav seen people do the former, so maybe I just suck.
Its preference, really. I prefer sprinting right at them and if I see them attack I either counter with a Super Armor move or just roll behind them for a grab. Then again I mainly use Ganon and you're wanting help with Lucina.. soo;

Most people who fight with Lucina (That i've seen in For Glory) is a mix, some jump, some sprint, some roll to me which makes me laugh a bit. Find one that fits you best and use it to your advantage.

All I can say about that, really. If you feel better at going aerial, go for it. If it feels awkward, stay to your roots and build on that.

Its really weird too that aerial feels awkward for me, since I also main Toon Link who is all about air fighting and stuff. Yet for some reason it feels weird when playing as Lucina.

Also, Fluffyeevee, you should totally use this pic as your avatar, it fits the name perfectly.

Well some characters just feel better doing some things. Some characters feel more Aerial than others, whom feel more as Ground Fighters. Then again if you build enough talent with that character you can do just about anything.

Heh, i get that.

To be honest half the reason I brought it up was as an excuse to link that picture again, since its kinda adorable as all hell.

I think I have that picture somewhere already in my deep folder of Morgan.

On subject here; Just fought a Lucina who seemingly counter'd my Wizard Punch, but the counter didn't... "Counter" all of it? I guess? It hurt her too, and we took no Knockback from it. Gonna go to training real quick and see if I can reproduce it.

Edit: Okay so I went Lucina vs a Ganondorf AI and countered the Wizard Punch, but the same thing didn't happen, it just counter'd normally. I'm confused now. Was it lag or something?

It was lag, probably. Unless the counter, by some weird chance, missed and did something strange.

I feel like there's a couple of online strats that Marth really struggles with because of the terrible combination that is FD only, no customs, and online latency. Campy Samus and Greninja play can also difficult to crack if they're actually competent with those characters.
Yeah. Like I could've done better. If I'm not at least hitting peoples shields with stuff, I'm not doing things correctly. I don't mind Greninja beyond his dumb up smash (that outranges swords horizontally, lol) on wifi, and Samus isn't a potent killer, so all that one fears is her charge shot (can't react to it in lag :p). I struggle with those strats basically because I have to respect those characters 30 frame start up kill moves that aren't possible to react to or punish in lag (not being able to react to wizard's foot? Joy). Just in general, the best characters on wifi are those with long range kill options, even if those moves are completely ass in a proper competitive setting, they're single button presses that do all the work for you :<
This was all with Lucina though. I keep Marth to like last matches with people before I leave.

After a satisfying 2 wins in a row, my win rate is now at about a comfortable 30%.

And to think my teacher told me I would never amount to anything.
I know the feeling! :D
kawaiishot.png


(It twas less to gloat and more a "It's possible!" Lucina can handle it all on wifi) [up to a certain amount of lag].

But I'm a tournament-going player, and am one of the best players in my country. I don't rely on throwing out an attack and then just immediately using counter, I don't rely on just charging shieldbreaker at a distance, I don't rely on rolls. I walk, use jabs and tilts and try to play reactively and just use my experience to pick the right action. How many people playing For Glory are competitive/tournament going players? Probably less than 1%, it's obvious to me that I'm going to be a vastly better player than over 99% of the people I play on wifi.

Oh my gosh, if Morgan is Yarne's sister... True, they get a different support, but still all the torture poor Yarne must go through...

M!Morgan and Lucina's non-sibling support is so heartwarming, speaking of Morgan.

And now, the single cutest Lucina fanart in the history of the universe.

I once did this IRL, genders flipped, me in Lucina's position. :love:

There were dubious claims that someone was rushing for their lives outside my classroom that day.

I just faced a Shulk on For Glory. On the first stock, I went with what @ Shaya Shaya had said in his video. Auto-cancelled Fairs and patient spacing to determine what the Shulk player was going to do, assuming he had any patterns. After seeing his play-style and each losing our respective first stocks I switched from defense to full offense and he could not keep up. My observations on the first stock indicated that he was reliant on getting a Monado Art up. He relied heavily on that. By going full aggression, I removed that option from his game-play completely and subsequently took the match.

Remember: there is no auto cancel on forward air.
But I guess you're right it's a lot simpler of a term to use than saying "landing after the move ends" I guess?

Good job though, making me proud ;)

Ike's games are pretty good I've heard. Who did :4robinm:marry?
I've heard that to actually. Radiant Dawn I heard was fun and path of radiance has the best story apparently. My Robin hasn't married anyone yet, but Lucina is the one I want to when I get to the point she joins your team. She's a great character, I feel bad for some of the pain she has and I feel my avatar is the right match for that to bring happiness. Also so I can get Morgan on the team.

Ike's games are good but damn expensive. FE7 (the first one released internationally on the GBA, with Lyn, Eliwood and Hector) is available on the Wii U VC I believe, so that'd be a good bet.
If you qualified for the 3DS Ambassador games, you should already have Sacred Stones - if you want something similar to Awakening to ease you into the older games, it's the closest you'll get outside of the Japan-only ones.
Heroes of Light and Shadow (the DS Japan-only one) is also good, and was the first game with a playable avatar and casual mode, and the fan translation is pretty good. But it's Japan-only. There are ways of getting it, but... yeah.
When it does come out on the virtual console in the states. Fire emblem 7 is the one that interests me the most. I've heard that Sacred Stones is a great one for beginners actually. That one interests me to actually.

She'd be banned in a heartbeat, though! I'm still rooting for Morgan alts for Robin if we ever get DLC alts, though.


Honestly, one of my favorite things about Awakening is the awesome female characters. Robin can be female herself and not just a blank slate, and all the other females have diverse personalities and are strong in their own way. Sumia is determined to be strong for her friends despite her clumsiness, Panne is aloof after witnessing the death of her species outside of her but still learns to see past species in some cases, Maribelle is very ladylike and can come across as snooty but truly is a good person who cares for Lissa, and so forth. It always makes me happy when a game, movie, show, or so forth can have female characters without just having "the token girl" or treating them as some sort of gimmick.

I think it's only in Europe right now, sadly. Come on, America! Give us it on VC too! Or rerelease some of the games now that the content in SSB can help promote it.
Ah, first playthrough. Good times. I sorta other thought it on my first playthrough, coming up with elaborate pariing charts to figure out who was going with who, since I am a dork like that.

Also, who do you plan to pair your Robin to?
I know right. It makes me happy to see very interesting and colorful female characters and not ones that are poorly written or are only their for disturbing, violent plot provoking. I am admittedly a bit of a feminist in that I want female gamers to feel welcome and have stuff that can appeal to them and not just males. I was surprised how cool and interesting they all were. Sumia's funny clumsy moments and scenes with Chrom were reasons I married them and the fact she strives to get better. I loved the support conversations between the two, they just felt like a great pairing to me. I felt bad for Panne to an extent and felt bad for Cordelia. I felt horrible when Nowi mentioned she was basically nothing but an entertainment tool to make money for bar folks and seeing her cry and struggle in fear when running away made me go "What the h$$$ is wrong with them?". I love it when you feel human connection with another character. It's about time game designers start reaching out more to female gamers and put effort into female characters.

I am having a lot of fun for my first playthrough! I am a dork to in that I like to have pairings I feel fit the characters the best or are adorable pairings that give the best conversations to move characters forward.

I plan to marry Lucina when she joins the team and I can't wait.

Save for the Morgan part, this is exactly why I married Robin to Lucina. They compliment eachother so well and I think they'd fine true happiness after the events of the story are done n' done.

The only part that hurts my heart is that there probably wont be a FE:A 2 or a sequel because of how hard it would be to do so without either a Memory Reader function that acts sort of like TT's The Walking Dead, o5 just doing a sort of "Who did the Tactician marry?" "Who knows." thing on us. We can only hope though!

By going full aggression, I removed that option from his game-play completely and subsequently took the match.
Speaking of Shulk, I had a really, really good match against one as :4samus:(sadly, considering what happened), where I pulled off what I can only describe as "insane mindgames on ledges".

Basically, when I was at 112% on my first stock, I was at an edge and began edgehogging like a maniac. All the Shulk did was Usmash until he switched it up to 2 fsmashes and then a neutral air, by which point I took him by surprise with a Screw Attack and regained my footing. I then proceeded to kill him, and him me.

On our last stocks, I repeated my tactic. He went for nair, fsmash x2, dsmash and then a usmash when I was hanging on the ledge. His fatal error, since I capitalized on the hit, dropped quickly and fsmashed him over the edge, far enough that using his jump and recovery wouldn't save him. My point? Shulks are very easy to predict once you read them on ledges, making them counter bait. I tried this with Lucina afterwards and managed to KO eager Shulks with counters 80% of the time. Definitely something to consider.

Well Morgan is always Robin's kid no matter who he/she marries (with there being two versions of Morgan, Female Morgan for Male Robins and Male Morgan for Female Robins) . Though Lucina as Morgan's mother leads to arugably one of the most powerful versions of Morgan in terms of stats and the fact she gets Aether.

Don't forget Galeforce and whatever god forsaken game breaking abilities that you have that in turn Lucina has.

Morgan's not a human being. Morgan's a friggin tank.

Well, the saves record who marries who anyways, with this information saved in your spotpass even if you don't have the game in your 3DS. So they could totally do an sequel with save imports, Mass Effect and The Walking Dead style

Thought to be 100% honest, I predict we are more likely to see a prequel taking place 1000 years previously detailing what went down during the first time Grima appeared. Since we know nothing about where Grima came from, and the fact that that the purpose of the Fire Emblem and the Dragon Table completely changed in FE:A meaning something big happened to cause this. Also there's the fact the First Exalt is never named (nor do I think gender was ever mentioned), which screamed to me as "future protagonist"

The only cross over I know of is Smash Cut, which is about Robin interviewing all of the other Super Smash Characters from all four games, having been hired by Master Hand to decide who ends up in the game.


Also, while purely an Fire Emblem fanfic, shameless promotion to my own story. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10639580/1/A-Future-Disowned

Its a retelling of the Future Past DLC, but with a added twist based upon my super elaborate headcanon based on a super elaborate fan theory that explains all the things.

Really didn't like Smash cut, only read the Link chapter and it sucked, though I might read yours, though I am yet to get the DLC packs. It saddens me

That, or just stick with the default looks for the kids and make the parents ambiguous. That would be difficult though with characters who can potentially be siblings, like Lucina with Cynthia/Morgan/Inigo/Brady/Kjelle. I'd love a FE:A 2, but the original story was pretty closed already aside from what possibly happened to Lucina in her unmarried ending.

Just in general, the best characters on wifi are those with long range kill options, even if those moves are completely *** in a proper competitive setting, they're single button presses that do all the work for you :<
Exactly. So many of my losses come down to a jump/shield/dodge/counter coming out just barely too late thanks to latency, and it's infuriating. I'm no top player, but it sucks feeling like you lost due to latency.

...though losing because I can't seem to switch between Smash games efficiently is probably even more infuriating, because that's entirely on me. I hopped on for a few Smash 4 matches after an evening of PM late last week and got my ass handed to me for my troubles. Couldn't get a good flow going at all.

Radiant Dawn I heard was fun and path of radiance has the best story apparently.
I love PoR. RD is cool but the shifting roster is kind of odd and supports are relatively limited.

Depends on the Shulk.
This. One of the guys I play against on a regular basis is a Shulk main and he's no slouch.

Future Past is really good. Basically has you going to a third timeline in which the future Characters never went back in time, and help them defeat Grima there. However, it has some weirdness that my fanfic sets out to explain...
SPOILER
Like the fact that in the DLC both F!Morgan and M!Morgan exist and are working for Grima, both of them recognizing Robin. Further more Robin can talk to the Morgan of the same gender as the Morgan you have on your team, giving her his copy of his favorite book... which she already has a copy.

... weird thing is, a conversation during the Hotspring Scramble has Morgan discover that she has two copies of the same book, with no idea where the second copy came from

Also, get the hotspring scramble map. It has a freaken adorable Robin x Lucina scene that is completely different from their non married version. It is probably the best scene between the two of them in the entire game.

Thats why they do a prequel and then frame the story as being Chrom telling it as a bedtime story to LittleLucina. It would be perfect.

Also, if you need suggestions for other good FE:A fanfics, I can point you in the right direction.

Also also, here is my other fanfic, which is just a single Lucina x Robin fanfic, in case you don't want to spoil the DLC. I say fanfic, since it is really just condensed fluff and adorableness. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10761074/1/Love-Across-Time


Okay, I will stop the shameless promotion now.

Oops, forgot about that. I meant to say for the best stats.

Also, for those who played fe7, Sacred stones, and Path of radiance, what stood out to you guys or what did you like about those games?

Speaking of how to counter Shulks. Did anyone go on for fun mode on Sunday or over the weekend or in for glory and fight a user named Eric? Because that user is me. I'm the one that usually fights with Lucina, R.O.B., Peach, and Duck Hunt, and Pac-man, Mr. Game and watch, and Greninja as occasional secondaries.

Also, what did you guys think of the interview with Sakurai where he explained his reasons for why the similar characters got in and how they were transformed from costume swaps to playable characters during development due to fans liking them and having different attributes in the models that promoted them to a roster spot? I honestly thought it was a great read and I thinks it's fascinating they became full fledged playable characters and makes some sense since it would be weird to play as a costume swap with differences in gameplay from the main character. Unlike the Melee similars, they were always going to be in since the beginning, just not as playable characters. I can understand his frustration due to those who think they took a spot from another when they didn't due to not being time consuming and very easy to make and being bonus characters. I'm not the biggest fan of Dr. Mario or Dark pit's inclusion, but I've warmed up to them and it isn't so bad. I feel bad to for how stressful it must be and how incredible it is that he's able to do those things. As a person in college at MMI. Learning stuff such as modeling and game design related things can be very time consuming and at times stressful. It's amazing how they can make certain things look and work great in such fast time frames. He really understands development costs and time management really well to.

Hey, even a similar character can be fun and there's nothing wrong with some of them and it's okay to like them or for others to. Heck, I see people want Roy back, just saying. Because they seemed to be bothered by the similar characters despite wanting a similar character back, and he made Dr. Mario playable due to his fans and the melee fans which shows he cares for them. I know plenty of people who like Roy over Marth, my cousin likes Dr. Mario and my other cousin likes Ganondorf. Heck, I like brawl Falco, Luigi, and Lucina more than their counterparts. In fact, I really enjoy playing as Lucina despite the similarities to Marth. In fact, she's become my favorite character and I was thinking Greninja and Pac-Man Would be my primary mains while she would be my secondary, but after playing as her, I've grown very attached to the character just like I have R.O.B., Peach, and Duck Hunt, who was always going to be a primary main of mine (Like R.O.B., I have a special connection or attachment to Lucina.) I'm honestly glad they made her fully playable and my theory is not only was she a well liked and requested character, but she has different height and the design of her Falcion to the development team felt wasn't fitting for the tip of the blade mechanic. He mentioned that the whole electroshock arm and final smash bit for Dark Pit and pills for Dr. Mario as well as the fans who liked him in melee.

Remember, Ryu, Ken, and Akuma also have their own fan bases and prefer those particular differences from the other two. Same with Luigi and Mario in the original smash bros. While uniqueness is nice, it's okay if a character is similar with some minor differences and someone likes them and they can be fun to.

Thats why they do a prequel and then frame the story as being Chrom telling it as a bedtime story to LittleLucina. It would be perfect.



Also, if you need suggestions for other good FE:A fanfics, I can point you in the right direction.

Also also, here is my other fanfic, which is just a single Lucina x Robin fanfic, in case you don't want to spoil the DLC. I say fanfic, since it is really just condensed fluff and adorableness. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10761074/1/Love-Across-Time


Okay, I will stop the shameless promotion now.
Yeah, I've been thinking of writing a fanfic of either (non of them romantic shipping)

1) Young Link or Adult Link in FE:A Universe (well, this might have:4robinm:x:4lucina:)

2)Zelda and Kid Icarus Uprising crossover (don't know if I should use SS Link or Adult OoT link)

or

3)A Super smash bros 4 one based around Robin's view.

I might do 1 or 2, though 3 sounds nice. opinions?

How about 1 and 2 together, something and something happens and they get sucked into a different universe or something. May sound cheesy but it can come up with some great quality work.

Im also interested in 3 because I like getting a diffrent aspect on the Smash cast.
