New Smash Bros for WiiU

[Conviction]

Regarding character moveset
I see there being two main things to it.

Distinction- Characters' having movesets that are distinct to games they been in. Things that most people think about when making a character moveset. An example being, Link's Skyward Strike. That move is distinct from a game that most people would recognize or call iconic.

Creation- LOL didn't really have a better word to describe my thought process. This is where characters like Fox, Captain Falcon, etc. just have made up moves cleverly disguised borrowed moves. This factor is the reason any character can have a moveset. Long as someone can punch or kick, give the character to someone with a little creativity and the character will come back with a moveset.

In my opinion I rather characters with more of distinction instead of creation. I love it when I see a character that holds moves relative to their respective gaming series. This is one of the reason I'm severely disappointed in Sonic's moveset. No Light Dash, No Bounce Attack? I say, the more distinction you can give a character in the moveset the better. There's nothing wrong with creativity though.

I don't see her being slow and powerful. Besides, there's more than a few ways to make a character. I think Rosalina was made heavy because she's the tallest of all the girls.

Have you seen her freaking staff? Her attacks involving PHYSICALLY hitting someone with her staff, and her walking/running seems like it would be slow.

 

[Conviction]

You guys could always just compensate by doing this.

Slow start-up, fast slow-down. So, she's vunerable trying to start attacks but has low recovery time giving her a chance to defend if she whiffed a move/move away/start a new attack

 

[Metal Overlord]

Mypants, they're probably gonna come out at the same time

And I would LOVE for Sonic to have his Bounce Attack, I remember when me and y. toonlink were talking about that

 

[Deleted member]

I still say Magnus > Palutena, but whatever.

It would be nice.

THANK GOD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE, damn.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Oh you

Cool matches though boys. Shame for the lag later on.

 

[Metal Overlord]

I prefer Magnus over Palutena, too

Actually, I would prefer both Magnus and Medusa over Palutena, but all of them would be badass

 

[Conviction]

Man where the hell were you *****s, when I was screaming Magnus when they first announced him? LOL

 

[prettynice]

Medusa...

 

[Mypantisgone]

I just checked a few of the old pages,i'm,late but i'm the youngest and i know it!

I wonder because the 3DS may have a shorter developement,so why would they keep it as long as the wii u one.

 

[Red(SP)]

I'm going to side with GY on this one.

Magnus > Palutena for some pretty damn obvious reasons.

 

[Metal Overlord]

How old you be, Mypants, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Kantrip]

Man where the hell were you *****s, when I was screaming Magnus when they first announced him? LOL

Calling him lame and boring if I recall correctly.

 

[Conviction]

Word, so it's a Magnus movement. I know Beserker is with us on this because he was with from the start XD

@Kantrip: Oh well at least people are starting to recognize hahaha

@Red: You're back??

 

[Deleted member]

The perfect Smash duo.

 

[Conviction]

Brb looking at some crazy shuffling moves

Golden has the right idea though

 

[Metal Overlord]

I think Golden was born a badass

 

[prettynice]

Lol.

 

[Pieman0920]

Magnus is alright, but did you guys even play Uprising? Palutena's the better character. :V

 

[Conviction]

Herp, I'm going to play it but even after looking at all the spoilers and playthroughs I like Magnus.

Oh which reminds me using a sword as a reflector like a lightsaber? So fresh. Someone make a Magnus moveset with that feature in there.

So essentially make his sword also work like a Club weapon for some moves, right?
Genius.

EDIT: Chapter 18 denounces whatever argument you have for Palutena for me, Pieman.
I don't care that she's a boss, I don't care if she had some fighting prowess in an OVA, playable Magnus beats that in my eyes.

 

[Mypantisgone]

I'm 13,meta!

The thing is,Magnus looks really like he would fight,not Paletuna!

 

[Conviction]

Oh yes, that's exactly what I mean.

Tomorrow, me and you will make a moveset. I would today but more focused on moving past the basics of shuffling.

speakin of wh-wtf someone is 13 here?

 

[Aaven]

The perfect Smash duo.

kid Icarus has a handful of worthy and fitting Smash characters after Uprising, for sure.

Hell if I could, I'd add Palutena, Medusa AND Magnus.

[prettynice]

I'm the oldest here.

 

[Diddy Kong]

I doubt it. HyperFalcon is oldest as of now.

 

[Starphoenix]

I don't think Magnus is the best choice, but I can support him as long as he has this song as an alternate theme.

Spoiler

I actually liked using the dog a bit more. Its like unlimited dash all the time, mang.

Also you should probably spoiler all that.

But seriously, did you play the game? You guys really have to play it before coming to these conclusions. Palutena's constantly there, and she's really enjoyable too. Magnus is nearly a bit character, and he's technically got less screen time/importance than another playable character who isn't Pit

Spoiler

(kinda)

.

EDIT: Oh yeah, but his theme is boss....but so are a lot of other songs in the game!

 

[Conviction]

I'm still going to end up behind Magnus afterwards Just sayain.

 

[Metal Overlord]

Let's add every single Kid Icarus character ever conceived into Smash

 

[Mypantisgone]

I can't watch videos,i'm on my 3DS(again,because cr*py computer is cr*py)

 

[Red(SP)]

@Red: You're back??

Yeah, haha.

I'd play Uprising if I had a 3DS or something. The best I can do is LP's.

 

[prettynice]

I wouldn't get my hopes up for that. But definately Magnus.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Magnus could keep Ikes playstyle while Ike himself gets a slight power nerf and a projectile sword wave attack. Or get removed?

Ganondorf can now also become a Magnus clone lol

 

[Metal Overlord]

I was joking, prettynice

 

[prettynice]

I honestly didn't really care for Ike so if he gets replaced with Magnus then so be it.

 

[prettynice]

I was joking, prettynice

Oh. I feel dumb now.

 

[Red(SP)]

I honestly didn't really care for Ike so if he gets replaced with Magnus then so be it.

But to ask; is that really worth it?

I've often said that Marth and Ike are the most prominent of their respective series. The bond could last another game with an added Krom, but I think it's a bit too early to say that.
