I really wish Gale Strike were a down+B move. Swordfighter would become really effing versatile.

I'd rather it be a side b even though that would mean losing a reflector

I really need proofread before posting. The Direct made me too hype. BALANCED PATCH. There is still hope in man.

DAT MAJORA'S MASK

EDIT: Huh weird. Swordfighter gets twice as much costumes than the other classes. We get Monkey Suit, Dunban Suit, Link Suit and Majora Suit. That is 4 Suits compared to Brawler and Gunner which are both 2 suits each.

I stand corrected. Swordfighter gains 4 Suits - Smash, Monkey, Link, and Dundan. Gunner gains 3 Suits - Smash, Blues/Protoman, and Megaman X. Brawler gains 2 Suits - Smash and Cat. The Majora's Mask is universal. Looks like the Sakurai knows who needs more attention. I am seeing a buff on the horizon.

No... we must go deeper than that.
Give him pikachu's tail and fox's boots. This will create the Ultimate Smash Character. I might actually drop Swordfighter is he becomes top tier (which we all know would not happen but just so you know).

For all you GTO fans, I've already made a Mii that looks exactly like our silly teacher Onizuka. And for those of you who haven't watched the anime yet, WATCH IT RIGHT NOW. I never really cared much for the Mii outfits, especially since I think most of them (especially Mii Swordsfighter) are ugly but I'M SO FLIPPIN HYPED RIGHT NOW FOR THAT MONKEY OUTFIN MUN.

Good to know. Welcome to the team.
I've always been a Mii Swordsfighter person so it's not something new, I've just never really thought of coming here to talk about him but I'll probably start being more active on here and on Smashboards in general. On the other hand, hopefully I can practice my Mega Man and Mii Swordsfighter enough in next few weeks so they'll be ready for my tournament. Luckily the DLC will be coming out before my tournament too :D

Ever since last year, I've been using my lightsaber swordfighter. Man, getting 5th with him was like a miracle. I'm still gonna stick with him as a pocket. I've learnt a lot over the months thanks to you guys.

These days, I'm unsure whether I actually like the character or it's costumes...

For the costume just wait for the monkey suit. Like I am just as hype for the Suit as I am for mewtwo.

I'm not terribly hyped for the current collection of costumes, but I am hyped for the prospect of future costumes.

I just hope Miis are a part of the balance patch and aren't still considered back-seat characters (see: For Glory) (I also hope, for that matter, that they just use a guest Mii for online play. Why is that so hard to do? Or is this a weird packet issue regarding Mii sizes?).

I just realized that with the monkey costume I can have a goku for each mii style (fighter uniform for brawler, dragon armor for gunner). Power pole!!! :D

I'm back y'all. The buffs to swordfighter were good and I picked him up as a secondary/tertiary again. Dunno when he'll ever be tourney-ready, but he's much more fun to use now.

Yes !

He's definitely a bit better with the buffs he got.

Lol Secondary... I wish. Welcome back! What else has Swordfighter improved other than Nair and Dtilt?

Hero's spin out of shield or after jab2 kills really early. The damage increases really helps with making plays and can even edge you out with spacing wars against some other characters. I am also getting into power thrust, since it is falcon kick with better reward.

His poor air speed, absurdly long fox trot, and other mediocre moves need to be worked around. Trela made me see how some moves had more applications than I thought.

With these buffs, would you say swordfighter is (somewhat) usable or nah?

Nope :p
Swordfighter still can't pressure shields you can still hold shield and watch Swordfighter struggle
