Melee is balanced though, there are no overpowered characters, and all the viable characters can hold their own near equally. The answer to Kirby being underpowered is to simply not play Kirby, there's no easy answer to Steve being overpowered.
For the millionth time, why is meme support not valid?
yes there is. you turn on the items and throw a bat in his face

Oh bull, the top eight are so objectively better than everyone else that yes, they are in fact overpowered. You whine about balancing but then turn around and say ignorant stuff like "the answer to Kirby being underpowered is just don't play Kirby!" You hypocrite. As if it's not 100% on the devs fault that Kirby is under tuned.
Although previously lower tier characters can find use and become more popular. A big example of this is Yoshi. Originally, Yoshi was seen as a low or even bottom tier character. But recently, Yoshi has seen success in major tournaments and they appropriately raised Yoshi's status on the tier list and now he's considered an upper mid-tier character.
I really don't mind such a short delay, and I was planning on digital anyway so this doesn't effect me too much. Nice to see the Elastic Waistband being available without preorders, though.
Hell, NASB's own focus on 1v1 balance didn't stop Mikey from being OP enough to have to be banned on week 1. No ban in the history of competitive Smash has been that quick.
I believe that is how NASB 2 is handling its editions aside from Elastic Patrick.
To be fair, that was because he had a solo-Luigi Ladder, not because he was overpowered by design. If anything, people were raving about Leo at launch, Mikey just happened to have a game-breaking exploit the devs didn't catch.
I mean...
Doesn't really impact DLC speculation all that much, we already heard it's not adding any more IPs
It was actually removed from the the site, and I knew about this earlier through Discord. I have no idea if this guy is even credible.
It’s been deleted, what did it say?
That's only because of the codename "stevia" which is for one of the DLC characters and it fitting Angelica considering what stevia actually is (a sugar substitute), but they said "stevia" isn't a hint for who the character actually is.
I don't think Zuko's getting in. He's much too popular and the DLC has been called "underwhelming" and "mediocre" by the insiders, so I don't think they would call it that if such a massive fan favorite got in. And I'm not even thinking that Angelica is getting in at this point, as she and her uncle Stu are the go to picks when discussing Rugrats getting a 2nd rep.
Well who do you think it is, then?
Assuming this guy isn't talking out of his ass, this means no Professor Membrane in Season 1. F in the chat for my guy.
Actually 2, as SBSP is also a 90s show.
1999. It's a 90 show, singular.
I highly doubt that there will be free update characters, and if there are I think that they'll just be more newcomers.
I really wouldn't count on them being free if they get made at all. All of the veterans basically have the same workload as a newcomer, and the only reason Garfield and Shredder were free for the first game was because they were 1) always intended to be part of the base roster, and 2) promised, as it was advertised initially that the roster would have 22 characters before those two got delayed.
Yep. I'm only expecting free DLC if they were intended for base but scrapped, but based on what we know the veterans we will get if this is the case would most likely be PTM and Hugh, as they were presumably the last two veterans to get cut as they are the only missing vets other than Shredder (who is a boss now) to have leaked renders, and they even face right like the other playable characters (and Frida and Master Splinter for some reason). In particular PTM has two leaked renders and Hugh has a whopping four.
Mostly just a bunch of characters no one really asked for.
I don't believe this, but I'd honestly be pleased with this lineup.
