The other thread is disgustingly red right now so I'll be here for a while. How goes things, folks?

Apparently every color swap for Ultimate has been recorded now. Gonna go find out what Chrom's other five are.
talking about how stupid it is to boycott a game for a stupid reason isnt red

On the recolors, I love black haired male robin. Idk why, it just clicks. There was a video of all the colors but i think its been removed

What do you mean by "red"?
As for me, I'm finally starting to get over Incineroar. Still don't like its inclusion but at least I have Greninja.
You?

Care to elaborate?
something something skin color
something something racist

I don't know man, I made my sentiments on this long ago, I ain't gonna dip my toes back in but I will quote what I said about it.
Representation of skin color or sex is pretty shallow for Smash Bros. It's not about the diversity, it's about video games. What the color of their skin or whats in their pants has no relation to the quality of the game or the intent of the developer. If the sole reason is not for the idea of making them a character, and instead finding filler to meet some specific quota, isn't that worse?

That's why I disagree up front for the support of a character solely because of those reasons.
Support Krystal because she's a girl? No. :sick:
Support Krystal because she's got unique capabilities from a relatively B-Tier series? Yes. :cool:

Don't knock characters just because you don't know how to use them.
Lol, what a argument.

I know how to play her, in fact, I like using her from time to time, it's just that I don't think she has anything really special going for her compared to everyone else. Sure, she is good with blades like Knuckles, Ether Cannon & Bit ball and she has good ether stats....but the thing is, Zeke also have high ether stats and is also quit good with those weapons.

In fact, with the right pounch item & cores, Zeke can spam healing art with bitball like crazy and deal good damages while healing the party at the same time. Soooo, again, no need for a healer if you give Zeke a good bitball blades.

The niche that Nia is specialized in (healing) is just not good enough for me most of the time, and that's the weapon she is good with. The rest?

-Megalance? Nia stats aren't the best for physical damages, sure she can do decent damages, but Rex can do the same amount and do more, he also have a break and a art that remove aggro, which work both together pretty well, Nia arts don't really offer much, since you shouldn't get the aggro at all with Nia anyway, she is just outclassed there. Also, Morag get a quick and powerful Smash, tho, I wouldn't say she is the greatest with lance too.

-Katana? Hmm....OK, she is quit good with with Katana, but again, Morag is THE Katana user, so outside of Newt, I don't really feel like giving any Rare Blade Katana, since Morag already got Brighid and as better use with Katana blades, so, heh, I give a point for Nia I guess.

Axe? Nia got a topple....but Zeke got one too, in fact, all of Zeke arts work like Nia arts, but Zeke stats work better in general with axes than Nia stats, so, again, Nia is OK, but not the best, so outclassed on this one.

-Shield Ham-

Hah! Good one, Nia shield hammer arts suck, she doesn't even have the one good art that make Shield Hammer blades decent, that is Shield arts, which Zeke & Rex have. Her damages is bad with this type of weapon and she can't keep the aggro because of that, making her unable to use her better defense due to your ally doing crazy damages and taking all the aggro from you, and her animation are slow and clunky, like most other shield hammer users outside of Zeke, yes, but still, she suck hard with shield hammer.

The one type of weapon I feel she excel at are Twin Rings, but outside of Obrona & Dromarch. Most of the other twin katana are so good and broken that I prefer using them on other drivers. Inf.Fan for exemple work much better on Morag due to Morag made for being a tank, which Inf.Fan is like a freakin' god at, plus, Morag get a healing art, sooooo, again and again, Nia get outclassed.

Really, I don't say you should feel ashame of playing Nia. Again, she is decent, she can do stuff, you can make a team with her and win challenge just fine, I don't say she is 100% useless, but she is just "weak" to me, her personality is mostly the reason why I pick her over others, that and, despite me saying how she get outclassed by others drives, I still like using her with a Katana or lance or a axe on her from time to time too, really, I like trying new stuff whatever I feel like it, I don't always go for the win, just having a good time with my favourites characters

Heck, I even use Roc from time to time and he certainly isn't great at all, but I like the talking birds who is always here and as crazy critical rate, so if I feel like it, I use him. I know he has problems, but XB2 as enough broken stuff that you can work a good amount of weird build that aren't the greatest, but still work if you know what you're doing.

Brief, don't take my words as me hating Nia, I like her, I really do...but that doesn't mean I can't say anything bad about her. Nobody is perfect, not even your favourite characters, and sometime, you got to see what is wrong with them and accept them as what they are, which in this case, is Nia being underpowered compared to everyone in the postgame. (big attention on that word, because outside of that point, Nia feel pretty good for most of the story)

Double brief, that's my final words on the matter, feel free me to call me bad at video game and that I don't get how to use Nia, I never claimed myself to be a pro at both anyway. But I hope you keep having fun with her.

On that, have a nice day.

I've literally been using all of the weapons you mentioned her being bad with in the post game and winning just fine. In particular, I do fine using the Monado all of the time with her, which is basically a shield hammer.

And she's super fast with the Megalance so that makes up for the slightly smaller damage.

Again, don't knock things because you're bad at using them.

Press F for their season.
*Presses F*
I'm a Phoenix Suns fan so things are rough on my favorite team's end.
The Minnesota Timberwolves, my 2nd favorite team, is looking a little more mediocre than last year as well.
Which leaves team #3...the Toronto Raptors, who actually look amazing, thank God.

Ducktales today just got real as ****
I just noticed how heavily the Final Smash meter is being pushed.

pretty sad whoever the hell makes these tourney rules wont probably make them legal :drsad:
it'd be silly to not make them legal
Did anyone post this?

Classic Mode has some really cool mural art of all the fighters.

There was a problem fetching the tweet
Now we need the full artwork involving everyone but Waluigi...and shadow

It's not going to be legal because even if they're not random with the meter, they will be unbalanced as heck. Peach's and Daisy's literally don't do damage and are ineffectual if the opponent is in mid-air for example, while Bayonetta can get guaranteed KO's from hers if she finishes it when an opponent is at 100% damage.

Aren't they supposed to be specifically nerfed, though?

SMH people should be boycotting this game for my boy not being in this game, not for some political ****. :rolleyes:

But for real, what's the big fuss going around?

Someone has compiled every alt from what seems will be the final build, if any of you still don't know all the skins from someone and have curiosity look no further

Some of my takes on some skins:
-Really can't believe fire Mario isn't in the game. That was my favourite Mario alt by far, and Luigi still has it. I guess groom and builder outfits are cool and all, but I rather have the OG fire costume.
-Peach has a golden outfit in place of the Daisy alt, and it looks pretty nice. However, I wish they gave her and Bowser some Odyssey costumes.
-Black Yoshi was cut?! Seriously? The Woolly World skin is neat, but I don't think is different enough from the OG and I might mistake both if they get played at the same time.
-Pichu has the best alts in the game, don't @ me. However, pointy ear Pichu has the same issue as Woolly World Yoshi. We'll see.
-Robin now can have a different hair colour with his outfits, and the male version has a Mark colour (from FE7). ALL OF MY YES, I'm using that skin from now on.
-Ken has a black alt that also changes his skin, it might be a reference to Violent Ken? That would be neat.
-Each of the Koopalings each get a new render, while Alph is the same as Olimar (Not that it matters, OG Bowser Jr is the only good alt and the one people should play).

I like that they gave changes to some characters to differentiate the alts. Still, I'm hoping they add some more trough free updates.
I have to say, I like how they handled the alts for the newcomers this time around. While it's been done before, it seems like the majority have a reference to their appearances and/or other characters in the series and I always appreciated when they gave little nods like that. For instance, Dark Samus seems to reference Phazon suit plus a number of the other hunters like Gandrayda and Sylux. Ridley references all of his canonical appearances, even some obscure ones like the Golden Ridley from SM, and King K. Rool seems to have references to other Kremlings like the basic Kritter variations, Klump, and even his DKL sprite.

Also, Roy is best Koopaling and I will not hear any slander.

Yes but they won't all be nerfed the same way because like I said, Peach and Daisy's Smash Ball version doesn't even do damage so like literally, what do you even nerf? The amount of food items they get? For Bayonetta's, they may nerf the finisher, but she still has the Witch Time portion to get the opponent to 100% easily.

The core issue with Final Smashes was never how random they are, it was that even if they aren't random, they were always unbalanced. Remember Brawl Super Sonic? That was banned even before Smash Balls were banned in competitive Brawl.

Have you even read my post in full?

If not, here is a abridged version:

Just because you win with a low or mid tier character in a fighting game doesn't make that character good if you compare them to the top of the top.

Plus, you mention the Monado, the Monado who can basically work on anyone due to removing every problems of shield hammer had normally + offfering crazy stats buff on everyone.

If you need a blade this broken to fix the problem the user weapon as normally, then there is a problem, Zeke isn't great for exemple with Katana at all, Corvin is so broken however that he nullify Zeke problems, does that make Zeke a good katana user? No, he is just good with Corvin, that's it. While that say, Zeke can also use the Monado and make his decently powerful & fast art even faster and more powerful on top of having a launch & a shield art & Vision for good measure(making Zeke just basically a top tier support drivers that can still deal good damages). So sorry, Nia still is outclassed, not useless, just not the best choice.

Also, I also used Nia with the Monado before and did just fine...but what does that mean?

I think I really need to stop now because you just don't want to admit that your girl is not good enough at one thing.

So Ryu's Classic Mode are all Stamina Mode 1 on 1s fights on Omega Stages only.

That's a neat detail, I'm assuming Ken's might be the same.

You literally said she's useless in the post game but I was easily progressing through the post game with her. That was how this started.

I'm not even arguing her as top tier at anything besides healing (there is no such thing in XC2), but to say she's 100% useless is just objectively wrong.

Good thing Im a Thunder fan, the memes help to cope with this inconsistent team lol.
On Suns case you got a great rookie, and with Booker is just a matter of time until they climb.

The thing with the Wolves is Jimmy Butler stirring **** to get traded, it looks entretaining but at this point they're gonna barely grasp the 8th seed carried by the rejuvenated DRose


Kawhi is a beast, nuff said :denzel:
Glad the SAS-TOR worked for both sides, DeMar is really growing as a Spur.

But...that's what I mentionned on my previous previous post, here:

" Again, she is decent, she can do stuff, you can make a team with her and win challenge just fine, I don't say she is 100% useless, but she is just "weak" to me "

If you taken my old post with the Malos image seriously, well, sorry you took it that way, but you need to chill. Nia feel weak to me in the postgame, and I know peoples who would agree on that point. Maybe I didn't explain in the best way possible, but that line I just quoted is truly what I really feel about her.

I don't say you can't win at all or advance normally, I just say you can't do it as fast as with others drivers, that's it.

And if you disagree, fine, but don't say I'm 100% objectively wrong, that make it you look like you are ignoring all of my points and just not wanting to listen to my points.

Cloud's costumes still suck but Shulk's gotten a buff on his. They really want me to main Shulk even harder
At least wonder red survived the spirit and assist trophy assault. We’ve seen no wonder content actually.

DLC wonder red please Sakurai
Wonder-Blue is confirmed to be a Spirit but since Spirits don't deconfirm characters, they're technically still in the go. Wonder-Red still ain't happening lol
I was only initially fake hyped for her so I didn't piss my bfriend off.

But yeah, IDK, like, I didn't even want Incineroar, I can't even spell it's name correctly half of the time. But what sold me is that it uses mostly wrestling moves.
>:^(
Robin now can have a different hair colour with his outfits, and the male version has a Mark colour (from FE7). ALL OF MY YES, I'm using that skin from now on.
They already had those in Smash 4 tho
