New Smash Bros for WiiU

[Aaven]

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

Wut.

I don't think it Magnus would be too interesting as a Newcomer if he stole another characters moveset and then gave him the boot, I know that's been done in the past but not usually by two characters from different universes/game series.

Plus, Ike's boss, I couldn't see something like that happening.

 

[Metal Overlord]

Ike can't be replaced by Magnus, they aren't even from the same series lol

 

[Hoots]

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

Except I think we should all be against arbitrarily stuffing characters into other characters' movesets just because they're remotely similar. What's the point of having Magnus if he is just the new Ike? Anyone that has a unique moveset that is actually relevant to the character deserves to not be replaced IMHO.

 

[prettynice]

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.

Well, possibly.

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!

There is this wonderful Trope called Your Mileage May Vary. While you find Palutena the better choice because of more screen time, I do not.
Even if I play the game, it wouldn't change my viewpoint. Especially considering I've spoiled myself silly of the game itself.

For example, Cranky Kong is always there in the DK series. Hell, he's even the original Donkey Kong. Is he very likely as well and the best choice for a candidate?

 

[prettynice]

But they don't neccessarily have to give Magnus the same moveset as Ike. We can all agree that Magnus and Ike's moveset is fairly different.

 

[Pieman0920]

You guys....seriously should shut up about Magnus until you've played the game.

Magnus himself doesn't have that many normal melee moves, but what he does have isn't like Ike because his sword his about three times the size. Its also a lot more headbutt heavy. The Magnus Club though actually has certain special attacks associated with it (though these can only be used by Pit). Like most weapons, it has a projectile attack, though its also notable that its back projectile doesn't really shoot out, but rather Pit slams Magnus' sword (club) into the ground cause a tornado to shoot up. Also in air there's the special attack that all clubs can do where it summons several different tornados. There's also Pit's dorky little multi-club swing. And yes, when a club hits a projectile they can send it back, and Magnus' club isn't an exception.

EDIT: My mistake. Magnus' had a three swipe combo has his normal attack and a flying round house kick as his dash and back dash attacks. No headbutts. :V

Any last hope you had for your case has been shredded by this statement.
Especially considering that playing the game would change nothing for me, since I already know what's going to happen. It's only going to be me controlling Pit instead of someone else; that's the only change.

 

[Conviction]

Golden beat me to the statement. Anyways what happens when I play the game and I still support Magnus. Are you going to say me agreeing to your terms but having the same outcome is still wrong?

 

[Metal Overlord]

^^^^ You heard that guys? Apparently, we need to play Uprising extensively to form an opinion on this guy

 

[Deleted member]

And you know who you sound like, Pieman? Diddy.

Just replace Palutena with Impa and replace Uprising with Skyward Sword in your statement.

 

[Red(SP)]

^^^^ You heard that guys? Apparently, we need to play Uprising extensively to form an opinion on this guy

Pretty much.

Because watching Let's Plays are irrelevant these days.

 

[Conviction]

After re-reading your post thanks for giving me a better idea on how to form Magnus's moveset.

Like you said, all clubs repel projectiles. You called Magnus's weapon "The Magnus Club" so having him specifically have normal moves that repel projectiles sounds pretty distinct to the character and the game he debutted in.

 

[Aurane]

*Reads on about the arguement*

You guys....seriously should shut up about Magnus until you've played the game.

I just want the sexy goddess is all.

 

[Deleted member]

So you want Medusa, eh asage?
JK, I know who you mean.

 

[Pieman0920]

...Toise is right about this place. Did I catch this thread at a bad hour when people were going to act particularly dumb? I wasn't even talking that time about what mindset you have to be in to prefer Magnus but rather how people were jumping to the conclusion that he would take Ike's moveset, and that's stupid if you haven't actually played the game.

And no, you won't change your opinion because its more about proving me wrong at this point, rather than forming it naturally by playing the game. >_>

 

[Deleted member]

Seriously Pieman, if you're going to be a ****, get out.

Especially since you can't just leave a vauge statement and expect people to interpret the way you intended.

And again, as you don't seem to grasp, I don't need to play the fricking game to have an opinion, as I've already seen everything that the game has in terms of the story with my own eyes.
Me controlling Pit isn't going to magically change it.

 

[Conviction]

I think Diddy is the only who wants to have Magnus take Ike's moveset.

Please try not to generalize us with him. LOL

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Magnus-talk?

Pfft.

Spoiler

Viridi please.

 

[prettynice]

Oh boy....

 

[Metal Overlord]

"Heard of Magnus before? Maybe through outside sources? Think he's cool? WRONG, you need to play Kid Icarus: Uprising before you can say that he's cool!"

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Magnus is damn good, but I dunno should he be made playable. Feels slightly forced to put more Sakurai's creations.

Okay, we could say same about every character in Uprising expect Palutena, Medusa and the Underworld Army.

 

[Disfunkshunal]

I think pieman was just saying that right now yalls opinions and ideas are groundless and superficial and that after playing the game yall may realize this and change your minds. I.e. what happened with medusa for a lot of people here.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Disfunk: I agree 100% with that. This game's much, MUCH more than you can imagine if unspoiled. (-l_l-);

 

[Deleted member]

Which is completely idiotic, as I've said CONSTANTLY that I've already seen the whole damn thing, and me being the one to control Pit instead of someone else won't magically make things different.
We get what he's saying. It's that what he's saying is nothing short but insulting.

 

[Conviction]

I understand his position but there is nothing that I can really feel from playing it besides stating the fact I have.

Omochoa is annoying if I'm playing the game or if I'm watching someone play the game. You feel me? haha

 

[Aurane]

JK, I know who you mean.

Should I be wrong?

...And here's where we'd put a ****.
IF WE GAVE ONE!

Oh, sorry. Did we offend you?

I think Diddy is the only who wants to have Magnus take Ike's moveset.

Please try not to generalize us with him. LOL

See my recent picture of Dimpa?

Nuff said.

 

[Deleted member]

That particular drawing isn't very flattering, in my opinion, but yes, Palutena is attractive.

 

[Conviction]

That face is terribad.

Anyways, the I'm in the BR he is talking about. Only difference from here to there is things are a lot more calm there. Plus we get a bit more done there but it's not some holy sanction.

 

[yani]

That's a pretty good point. I see Magnus as an AT imo

 

[Aurane]

Crisis averted.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

I wonder if the next Adventure Mode could be similar to Uprising's Solo Mode? 3D Roaming, maybe Powers-system, hopefully BETTER PLOT than SSE, and even dialogue would be nice IF DONE RIGHT.

 

[Deleted member]

Crisis averted.

HNNNNGNNNNNNNNNNNG

Controlling pit made people see medusa in a different light. Knowing this, why is it idiotic to assume that the same could happen for another character in the same game.

@iblis
That's a horrible example, omachao is a waste of coding. And that's not exactly the same thing.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Yuui: You're doing it wrong... It should be

HOW CAN YOU GET A BONER FROM THAT?!

(-l_i-)

Now you are.

@Horsetail You lil' picky *******

@iblis

It's not my best example I'll give you that XD but what I'm saying is I'm going to like Magnus as a character either way. His character isn't going to change mid-game unless there is something I'm missing, and if that's the case I'll concede.

No matter, in 3 weeks I'll probably have played through the game myself.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Asage: Sorry but I prefer... um...

I don't know, actual- ELESA

 

[Metal Overlord]

disfunk, I get where Pieman was coming from, too, but the way he just told us to shut up about Magnus just because we haven't played Uprising kinda rubbed me the wrong way because it came off as him telling us that we can't have an opinion on him just because of that

No, learning

Spoiler

that she wasn't the main villain

made people see her in a different light.

And that was before we could control Pit.
