Dragonite, Axew, Hydreigon, and Garchomp disconfirmed.
And Hydreigon. It's behind Meta.

Anywho



"Looks like there was an impostor in the earlier posts, so I introduced him to my sword!" ...I'll leave it up to your imagination if he really said that or not. The veteran hero, Meta Knight, returns to battle!! We didn't forget the Battleship Halberd either!!



Meta Knight's Up Special Move, Shuttle Loop, changed quite a bit in this game. The glide is gone, and the attack slashes opponents twice while spinning in a large loop. This has turned into a highly technical and effective move.

Meta-Nerfs confirmed.

Meta Knight returned with a version of Shuttle Loop that sounds way risker to throw out on block? What a fantastic update; Shuttle Loop was one of the three core reasons MK was way too good in Brawl.

Man, I went though all the trouble carving out each and every name (of the members at least) into all these tombstones to commemorate those who lost their lives in the Hype Train Massacre of August 13th, 2014. And for nothing!

A few minutes before the Meta Knight reveal, my Internet went out for some reason. I had to follow this thread through my iPad's cellular service. What awful timing. At least it's back up now.

So Meta Knight, huh? Like many have said, it was definitely worth the wait. I have to say that I love the detail they gave his sword slashes. I'm sure many are happy to see him return.

I guess we know why it took so long, not only a veteran, but all of the info.

gosh...site is crashing!!!

I hope this message gets trough.

Ok, I check things:

4 sections were added.

First is meta knight page and now, it;s broken (no background and the render is off). I wasn't able to view the 10 images large, but you may try.

Second is a section about basics controls that really, is boring.

Third is very interesting. The branching path mode is indeed classic mode and there's other new info in there about modes.

Finally, some stages. I want to point out that nor pyrosphere, nor Paper Mario stage is present on this page. This means that thiose might have been ignored for teasing. It's not that much in itself, but it's worth mentioning. Most of the stages are already known teases.

That explains the delay to update so much info. And even then, the MK page is unfinished so it should have been even more late.

However, I think it points towards a direct very soon. We're getting so much that they can't all do in potd, but they want to tease us for more. I predict a low chance this week, but VERY likely next week.

That's what I gathered, but I was really quick so I skipped some parts.

EDIT: the MK page is fixed now!

I guess explaining that S Flag on Tuesday was so dang important that the punchline to the Meta Knight tease had to wait a day.

Couldn't sleep; had to see what pic was.

To find that Meta Miércoles happened.

With some extra info pages (which explains the long wait).

Great to have Meta Knight back, quite a random day for his reveal haha. Guess it's a no-no for Ganondorf tomorrow now. Ah well, maybe something else Zelda-related then.

Ok, wow. This was one of the funnest experiences I've ever had awaiting for the Pic of the Day. The absolute, unadulterated hype was fantastic, and the pay off was so amazing with all the new news on the site, I can't wait for tomorrow! Maybe still Ganondorf reveal...?

Just wait until we find out MK's landing lag has been reduced as a result of the feedback received from the Invitational. Not everyone else's, just MK's.

Wow, at least this late pic amounted to something pretty great! Meta Knight is looking sweet, especially with the battle damage and those (random) gauntlets. Who wants to bet that those'll be used to explain how Meta-Knight is now "slower, but a harder target to KO." :awesome:

I'm really hoping he ditches the mach tornado in favor of a sword beam...

Amy Rose also has a trophy on the solo mode page.

Not that she really had a chance of playable status or anything.

Target Blast Angry Birds thing but no regular Break the Targets? Maybe it's a Wii U exclusive thing? Hopefully each target test is individualized again.
