Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl General Thread - All Star Brawl 2 Available Today!

Has Rep said anything new?

Heck would probably work best as Rocko's stage. It'd also thematically make a bit of sense as a competitive stage being a dangerous environment.

I wonder if they would go for Chewy Chicken or Chokey Chicken if they added the place. Would it even be rating relevant?

 

[LimeTH]

If we didn't already have PTM's Kitchen, I'd say Rocko's stage would be Wacky Deli or something.

I can see Rocko's House being a stage mostly for it's shape.

 

[dlewis53]

Honestly, I don't have any real problems with the likes of Jimmy, Timmy, Rocko, Tak. or whoever. As long as they're fun to play as, I don't mind them being in, same as in Smash.

The main reason why I tend to focus on Jenny a lot (aside from the insane moveset potential) is just because she represents the only one of my four favorite Nicktoons of all time (Danny Phantom, Invader Zim, Avatar, and My Life as a Teenage Robot) that isn't currently in the game, and you know, I think it'd be pretty amazing to have all four shows in a fighting game that's also not a mobile game (I'm not really a fan of mobile games, to be honest).

All that said, in general, I don't put other people down for wanting a different show and character represented, though that's probably because I can only think of like one show that's considered a Nicktoon that I legit don't like (Mr. Meaty); all others I'm neutral towards at worst.

Anyways, that's my whole stance on characters getting in.

 

[Mamboo07]

My choice for a Jimmy Neutron stage would be having the fighters battling each other on Retroland's amusement park rides travelling through outer space.

Stage layout could change overtime from the Ferris wheel, the spinning octopus ride, the snake coaster going up and down, the Viking ship and smaller rides like Jimmy's rocket, the bat, the drill thing acting like plaforms and so much possibility.
(Something like Pokefloats from Smash)

 

[Ze Diglett]

Instead, we have everything but Jenny, Timmy, Jimmy and Rocko (plus Garfield) being treated as expendable and not likely by detractors, as if Ludosity and Game Mill wouldn't do their damnedest to make this the most varied roster possible for a while and avoid the supposed "predictable roster with no DLC".
You can probably tell I'm a bit bitter about this.

Hey, I still think Squidward and Shredder have a good chance as DLC.
After that point, though, I would say it's a toss-up as to who they'd go for next. The "obvious picks" for DLC pretty much end with Jimmy, Jenny, Timmy, Shredder, Squidward, Garfield, and maybe Rocko IMO. (And even then, those guys would constitute a pretty good DLC lineup on their own if they decided to stop there.)

Also, I wonder if anyone tried posting this in the Discord:

Fair, but the conversation is about the scene outside of this board.

I've never quite understood the bundles of fighters approach for speculation characters, like the "Holy Four" or what-have-you... Like, sure, I have seen some people put Banjo/Rool/Ridley/Geno on the same level, but variants with Skull Kid or Isaac or Ashley also floated around (especially during base game speculation, if that character selection doesn't giving it away)... It does really seem like it just happens so people are on a "team" when fighting about/for characters' inclusion.

Anyway, NASB and Smash speculation are in two very different places, with NASB still lacking iconic lead characters from Nick's line-up while Smash only really has nicher options (or secondary characters) for first-party characters. It's kind of hard to meaningfully compare asking for a one-off character from a Mario RPG that came out 25 years ago to the protagonist of a TV show that aired for 10 seasons over 17 years with most fans wishing it was cancelled earlier...

That said, of course, want whoever you want for both Smash and NASB! Just don't be an **** to people if it can't come to fruition in the end...

People just tend to be narrow-minded in general, especially if anything outside of their reference pools (shallow or otherwise) gets humored as a possibility.

As you may know by now, it's tiresome how I feel like I'm alone in being open to just about any possibility, since I'm mostly versed well enough regarding the subject matter.

Spoiler: Spoilered because off-topic

It's from a super cheesy monster movie called Octaman. I learned about it through RiffTrax, which is basically this group of guys who record funny commentary that you're supposed to play over the film you're watching. They've done everything from this to Avengers: Endgame.

Alright, place your bets now:

Who do you think we'll be getting a showcase for tomorrow?

I'm gonna say Powdered Toast Man.

I am going to say its Reptar with the cereal bowl on Teeter Totter Gulch.

 

[Ze Diglett]

Alright, place your bets now:

I'm gonna say Powdered Toast Man.

Rep said the next showcase he recorded lines for after Helga would be a treat, and because of that, I'm pretty optimistic it's gonna be Powdered Toast Man. That, or maybe Nigel. (Will we finally get to see him do this with his hands?!?)

 

[Faso115]

It's never powdered toast man until it is.

I will say we gonna get Zim

 

[Capybara Gaming]

I hope it's Nigel, if nothing else so we can know what his moves and stage are called

 

[ivanlerma]

Nigel or Reptar are my bets.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Alright, place your bets now:

Still mostly him for me, although we might randomly get the Loud siblings.

 

[Mamboo07]

Who knows who might be next?

We'll have to wait and see.

 

[Opossum]

My prediction is either Nigel or Zim.

Well rip Rugrats fans

 

[Ze Diglett]

Well, I'm certainly glad they're doing double days now. I mean, they pretty much have to if they wanna get all these showcases out before release.
I'mma be honest, these two are the only characters we've seen so far that I just don't care about. I have no exposure to The Loud House, and I'm not a big fan of how their movesets look either. Lincoln looks kinda plain to me (the top move's the only one that stands out as "wow, that's fun" to me), and while Lucy basically having an Orcane teleport in her Vampire form is fun, she does seem a little too gimmicky for my tastes. (Though I guess she does challenge CatDog as this game's "stance character".) Happy to have 'em out of the way, I guess.
And as expected, it seems like most, if not all of the non-playable Loud siblings will have cameos on The Loud House stage. RIP to the Loud House fans, I guess, but I don't think much was lost, in all honesty. We already have two, and I think that's enough.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I actually really like punching bag boy's moveset. I love how he has a pretty consistent theme of playing with toys, with a few throwbacks to the show like dirty diapers and Ace Savvy dashed in - it doesn't feel like he's pulling references out of nowhere like I feared. I absolutely take back that dumb "Lincoln is Timmy" conspiracy I was pushing before, they made him extremely unique in spite of the odds. Now to watch Lucy's showcase.

 

[AreJay25]

I initially wasn't super interested in either of the Loud House characters but Lucy actually has some pretty cool mechanics! Don't know if I'll end up maining her or anything but I'll definitely give her a shot.

Lets start with Lincoln Loud. He seems to be pretty well balanced and easy to use. He has the Ness yo yo ledge hog. His water attack is going to be annoying to deal with for some characters but at least its range is a bit lacking. Lincoln might be great at comboing the opponents. His damage might be lacking a bit but in games like this, usually being faster/ combo happy is better than being a strong hitter. I like the stage´s layout and it seems like no all of the sisters are there so we might see one as DLC.

As for Lucy, I like what they showed. I didnt expect her to have a gimmick of her own. She looks hard to master though. The "upgrades" change how her attacks work so its a more developed mechanic than what we saw with April. There is a lot of personality in her attacks and I must say that they made a great job with her. As for her stage, the gimmick is going to make me salty at some point. I can feel it.

As for what they said about Lily, yep, I agree. It seems like a nod to that.

 

[Capybara Gaming]

Alright, I'm not a huge fan of the way Lincoln looks, but his stage looks incredible from a visual standpoint. Lucy on the other hand, by far is one of the characters I'm most interested in playing now. The three form system, a bunch of fun and interesting moves, and one of the best looking characters as well - not to mention I dig her stage and it's music.

So, I guess it's safe to assume double showcase uploads? I doubt it'll be this exact order or even these exact pairings but I wanted to count and see if it matches up to their release date.

Tuesday (the 28th) - Powdered Toast Man/Reptar
Wednesday (the 29th) - Zim/Oblina
Thursday (the 30th) - Nigel
Friday (the 1st) - Aang/Korra
Monday (the 4th) - Toph

Obviously these can be changed around but assuming they do at least three other double days they'll be on track to show them all off before release.

I'm actually not too scared of the water gun attack. He can't move while using it and the range on that looks ABYSMAL. He'll pretty much have to catch you off guard with a ballsy jump-in or something in order to actually hit you with it. I'll be honest, when I heard Rep describe this thing as "nuts," I expected a little more.

 

[TheBrainJem]

I think Lincoln's stage is the only one we've seen so far that has Music that sounds like actual music from the respective show (in this case sounds like a remix of the loud house theme), which while cool, is also kinda disappointing that stuff like the Spongebob stage or TMNT stages don't have theme song remixes or other songs from their respective shows.

Here's hoping that we eventually get a music overhaul patch that fixes that cus just having the loud house have that kinda sucks.


Overall though Lincoln and Lucy look ok

Of course, though I am sure its going to be an important weapon of Lincoln against short ranged fighters. Afterall, not every character has the range of Leo and Mikey. Approaching Lincoln might be a tough proposition to some characters without using a projectile first, like Helga.

Where... are you getting this implication? In the showcase video I managed to spot

• Lily
• Lola
• Lynn

In a previous trailer I spotted
- Luan (in silhoutte form)

Obviously Lucy is out of that, since she's playable, but that still leaves half of the cast unaccounted for.

• Lisa
• Lana
• Luna
• Leni
• Lori

The Rooftops music reminds me a lot of the 80s/90s TMNT games.

Personally speaking, the music on the Danny Phantom and Hey Arnold stages feel pretty close to the series they're representing. Catdog stage and Jellyfish Field come in second in that regard, since it requires a little squinting there.

It's worth noting that a cartoon's music may not necessarily use the same instruments and motifs as its intro theme, and that not every Nicktoon has an iconic musical identity (though on the other hand, you'd think the Spongebob and Avatar stages would've been easy to make identifiable tracks for).

Yes, and going by the pattern, I'm expecting at least most of the others will show up as well, even if they haven't shown them yet. I don't think they would've stopped to highlight all of them in the showcase since that simply would've taken too long.

Either way, they didn't even mention any of the Loud sisters by name other than Lily. I wouldn't doubt that they just skipped over some of them for the sake of pacing.

The thing I'm getting at is those three (Lily, Lola, and Lynn) KEPT showing up, over and over. The crew might have just picked some of their favorites to highlight instead of all nine other sisters.

And honestly, rewatching that trailer, I don't actually think Luan is there - I think it's Lynn, so yeah, she's unaccounted for too. Don't just assume they're all gonna show up; not every background character has been super important to their show, they're just there to fit the stage they're on.

Luna and Luan actually have a decent amount of theoretical moveset potential, so I'd say keep an eye out for them too maybe.

I feel like if there was more than what we saw we would've seen it in the gameplay anyways. It had Lincoln's updated render from the Toph leak after all so I doubt it's that old
