Social Mother of the Cosmos: Rosalina [General/Social] Thread (Closed)

[ChikoLad]

So I have to get off for a bit, but I went through most of Rosalina and Luma's moves (individually), and if the values in the complete coverage thread are correct, nothing has changed regarding how much damage attacks do.

I can't accurately test knockback yet, but I'll try later. I'll test on Wii U before I update, and compare to 3DS, which is updated.

EDIT: I tested everything I possibly could between the Wii U (outdated) and 3DS version (updated), and yes, Rosalina & Luma are unchanged as far as I can tell, knockback and everything. I didn't check customs though, I'll leave that to someone who knows them better.

And I would still appreciate if other people tested her just to double check, hopefully with better conditions for doing so (testing things simultaneously is hard with one person).

I think I wait for a moment to update...

So apparently Mew2King is playing as Rosalina in this tournament right now. I'm slightly surprised:

Smash n' Splash - Midwest Wii U National Tournament - AT A WATERPARK!! Feat. M2K, Ally, and more!

He did use Rosalina before... but yeah, sort of surprised.
And it's grand finals already?

Is.....is he any good with Rosa or does he just spam up air?

Yep. He also went Diddy Kong at the last minute. No surprise there.

Grand Finals
[Winners] 2 - M2K & Ally / BoScotty & GreenB - 1 [Losers]

 

[ChikoLad]

That's a pleasant surprise. M2K always said he "couldn't do the character justice".

 

[mario123007]

He's not that good like Dabuz, he's just ok...
And he's using Diddy again...

That's a pleasant surprise. M2K always said he "couldn't do the character justice".

What does that mean?

 

[Shirma Akayaku]

Well he spammed up smash a bit and neutral air. He did mess up his recovery a couple times, but got saved by his teammate.

That's a pleasant surprise. M2K always said he "couldn't do the character justice".

Well he did win a lot with her from what I saw (not Grand Finals though). He mainly played the defensive role in teams. Although his Rosalina isn't great, it wasn't that bad either. He held his own pretty well.

He's not that good like Dabuz, he's just ok...
And he's using Diddy again...

Well of course he switched to Diddy. He needed to secure that victory or else there would be another set of Grand Finals. Also, his Rosalina was okay. Not that bad. However, when he was alone vs 2 other characters, he tried to be aggressive with Rosalina and ending up losing a game.

Well, looks like he still won the tournament...

Diddy apparently has been nerfed hard. ZeRo is claiming he's not top tier material any more.

His hoo-hah move still has a KO potential though...

Well technically Zero put him as 5th in his tier list, so that seems to be top tier material, but he's just not the top anymore. It does make me wonder if M2K will go a different character. Sheik? Maybe Rosalina?

I think he's gonna go to main Sheik.

No, I mean today's patch actually nerfed Diddy yet again, and ZeRo is saying straight up he isn't top tier anymore, at all. He's not Top 8, apparently.

His Up Air got decreased sideways range, decreased knockback again, and 2 extra frames of landing lag. Dunno if that's all they did but yeah, the Hoo-Hah is completely dead now.

Oh damn. Another nerf?! Jeez... So could this mean that ZeRo, M2K, and other tournament players are gonna main someone else? By the way, is there a thread with the recent patch notes?

You'd probably have to look at the other forums for the full answers.

Dunno about here, but I think /r/smashbros is. Also ZeRo is noting stuff on Twitter.

Also he's saying Rosalina's Up-Air should be nerfed, and that he might "main Rosalina and Pikachu to make sure they get nerfed". I hope that's a joke.

Rosalina's u-air doesn't need nerfs, since you actually need to time it just right for it to KO stuff. Strike too soon, and it'll pack less power and knockback.

 

[ChikoLad]

Yeah I know, it's like Zelda's F-air/B-air.

Also, Nintendo World Championships are happening. Get in here! Hopefully a surprise Galaxy 3 reveal or something!

I think most of the new E3 stuff won't be shown until later this week; probably on Tuesday.

The last NWC was where Super Mario Bros 3 was first announced.

They are going to give us ONE new game.

That was a long time ago. What makes you think that?

Yeah.. Rosalina was never a popular choice in tournaments, if a lot of them use Rosalina and won a lot of tournaments, she might get nerfed.
This make us realized why Sakurai don't like competitive Smashscene....

Yeah I know, it's like Zelda's F-air/B-air.

This first game was Splatoon(2015)... so could the next game be.. Smash Bros (2014)?

You have got to be ****tin' me.

Tell me about it.

I have never remember that time since I was never familiar with 1990 NWC.

They just confirmed new games are at the tournament.

They also announced a port of the original Earthbound, which is out today.

Finally got my first match against Ryu. It was a pretty interesting match up. It was the boxers vs. The blonds

Also he's saying Rosalina's Up-Air should be nerfed, and that he might "main Rosalina and Pikachu to make sure they get nerfed". I hope that's a joke.

Does he honestly think his performance alone could get someone nerfed?

Edit: well I wouldn't know I how balances are determined but I hope something like that won't happen.

I can see why Sakurai is so dead against the "competitive" scene.

He thinks Diddy and Falcon were nerfed because of him, when he used them at that tournament in Japan. Sakurai was in attendance there.

Is Ryu hard to fight with?

You can say that again.
And I saw how Mew2King use Rosalina, some of his techniques are most focus on Rosalina, unlike Dabuz that can utilize Luma very well. He is really good on edgeguard.

Edit:
Arin is using Rosalina in MK8!
Argh... he's so bad at using her... 200cc sure is a pain...

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!Smash Bros!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my... It's Reggie!

He should learn to stop falling off the map

Yeah...
Man.. that Shulk was just...awesome!

Update:

They hyped Rosalina up in Mario Kart.

It's too bad that the Rosalina player did rather poorly in 2 of the 3 races. Also, I think the Championship developers did poorly with making sure that everything was unlocked in that game, as I noticed that certain parts weren't available to use. Even Smash Wii U gave players a chance to use ANY fighter.

 

[ChikoLad]

Earlier today I made my contribution to the Miiverse stage:

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

I made the following drawing earlier.

 

[NintenRob]

Yeah, those leaks really took everything away from that direct. All we got that wasn't leaked was

Hyrule Castle 64
Peach's Castle 64
Amiibo's
Info of Tournament

Its interesting that we currently know of no other characters that are coming later.

Those stages were unexpected, but not that hyped.
We are already expected they will reveal amiibos anyway.
So is the tournament.
