Marth: Did he just trip over himself?

It's obviously Sakurai's little way of saying "Don't dash dance! You're ruining MY GAME!"
It's not an advantage, it's a new approach to the "cheap" argument that I never thought we'd see. The producer getting directly involved :psycho:

Just like declining damage and knockback is aimed at laser spammers and sword tippers.
Actually, after watching a few videos, it seems like it may be an autohandicap of sorts...
I watched some Marth vs. Wolf vid on youtube, and the marth was ahead the whole match, and he was the ONLY one who tripped.

The tripping starts at 2:45 ish, after his 2nd kill to the wolf's first.

He trips 4 more time, twice in the three minute range, one late in the match.

My best guess is that it's an autohandicap.

I actually like the idea. But if they are going to go Mario Kart on us, don't even bother calling it a competitive game. Oh, that's right.... :laugh:

There is no ink dropping. It was a joke technique to begin with, it never actually worked in E4All and it works even less now. This is tripping.
