Pokemon Trainer is pretty fun in this one.

Now that Ivysaur and Squirtle are back Charizard doesn't feel like the blandest character in the roster anymore.

Are Spirits effects actually random or no?
I'm not sure. Maybe not. The reason I'm saying that is that for the doubles I've gotten, they were the same. Like the second Rayman I have has the same Jump effect as the first one I got. Same happened with the Chargin' Chuck I got, where both had no effects and the same Power.

That said, I'm trying out something to see what the Dojo does. I've put a Red character with no effect into the Dojo to see if the "Land Style" gets added to the effect.

I don’t really have a main but Peach/Daisy is feeling right.
For me it's... Ridley, surprisingly enough.

He's been feeling the most fun out of the newcomers for me, with K.Rool coming in at last place (so far anyway, I don't have them all yet).

The Belmont boys are really fun too, but I’m having trouble really using them properly.

So Mark Julio (Tekken Brand Advisor) says there should be one more big news for fighting game fans before the year ends.

He may be a Tekken PR guy, but pretty sure he meant in general and Capcom Cup is next week.

Hmm.

Okay, getting a Style doesn't treat it as a Trait or Effect for the character. It's treated as something different. That said, some Spirits either seem to learn Styles faster than others or benefit from Styles more than others, as some characters have a Power-Up arrow for some styles, some have a Power-Down arrow and others are neutral.

Just played a few hours of Ultimate:

-Got :ultlucario:, :ultmarth:, :ultzelda:, :ultolimar:, :ultwiifittrainer:, :ultryu:, :ultlucina:, :ultmarth:, :ultyounglink: and of course my boys :ultridley: and:ultkrool:so far. Unlocks have thankfully been very steady, so I'm getting everyone slowly, but surely.
-Played about half an hour of World of Light, the Spirit Battles have some clever set-ups so they've been fun so far.
-I loved playing as Ridley, I've used him in a few free-for-all and 1v1 matches and he's so much fun to use. I still need some practice with him as I'm still making some silly mistakes, but he's definitely looking to be a main of mine.
-King K. Rool has also been great, I haven't had as much time as with Ridley, but he feels very... smooth despite being a superheavyweight. I also like how charming he is in his moves, Usmash in particular I like the 'plank' animation.
-The CPUs are surprisingly more brutal this time around, I actually got backed into a wall a couple times messing with the Lv. 9s.
-Classic Mode I feel is one of its strongest iterations, the theming behind each really brings it to life and makes each playthrough a little more memorable. Of the lot I've done, Ryu's was the most fun, but I did like Marth's as well.
-Collecting Spirits is a mixed bag I have to say, the gameplay aspect is nice, but I'm really missing those descriptions. It's especially the case with the Fighter Spirits since they're useless in gameplay but give you nothing else from what I've seen with them, so they're just there for completion's sake unfortunately.
-Ganon took me by surprise, I actually died to him a couple times. Rathalos was much easier, but as a Monster Hunter fan I appreciate the attention to detail he had in his fight.

So I'm guessing battles in World of Light aren't set in stone? Because I just got that Smoky Progg/Mario Spirit Battle in regular Spirits Mode.

I would assume not.
After all, it'd be really ****ty if you turned a spirit you liked into a core and had no way of getting it back.

Lmao I forgot all about that.

Shows how much attention I've been paying to the Spirits Mode so far.

He’s so good this game. I’ve been using squirtle to kick ass when rematching for unlocks. I love having him back.

So far I'm having fun with Ultimate. Currently, I've only got Ness, Zelda, and Sonic unlocked, but I hope to unlock more of the cast soon tomorrow.

I assume the reason for them being the same in World of Light is because it allows a guaranteed way of getting them. That said, it does take a while to get them due to having to start with Kirby and having to go all the way to the one spot to get a Spirit.

Edit: That said, the guaranteed way is great for getting those Spirits that help with certain Terrains, especially the Strong Winds and Floor is Lava ones.

*gets Lyn*
Sweet, that'll be one to level up.
*sees she's enhance-able*
Oh, Regular Lyn becomes Blade Lord Lyn from her Awakening Art? Let's see it.
*gets her to max, than enhances her*
Yep, that's her Awakening art alright. But still, pretty cool.
*sees her default stats and Effect*
Neat, she's a Legend 4-Star and has a 12% chance to deliver a critical hit at any time, 2 slots and pretty good power. And I still have Snacks for her. Let's see if I can get her to max.
*Actually gets her to Max. She has 12, 115 Power, 6005 Attack and 4530 Defense*


Edit: And she's my 2nd Legend. My first was actually Deoxys. But oh boy, Lyn just took the title for my best Legend in seconds.

Need to unlock everyone ASAP. As soon as I get the game, first...

For those of you who haven't unlocked many characters yet, or don't have a copy of the game at all, which characters are you most looking forward to playing?

Yo I've been through the Wario challenger approach like 4 times now and the ****** still beats me somehow.

I've unlocked like 5 characters since he first popped up to.

My first Legend was the Black Knight I got him as Zelgius. Funnily enough the first spirit the game gave me when I launched the game was Minerva, they must know that Fire Emblem is my thing. Must be all the hours I put into FE Warriors :p

Anyways, I finally unlocked everyone, the most troublesome one for me was Dark Samus, but that was more because of the stage and my character choices for facing it.

Karel was my first Fire Emblem Spirit and he's been one of my most useful Spirits. Minerva was my second. Lyn, however, was my first Fire Emblem Lord Spirit, not counting Fighter Spirits. It's pretty amazing how frickin' powerful she is.

Managed to unlock all the characters today. I mainly did the VS Match/Reset method, then switched to Classic Mode briefly if I ran out of distance to unlock fighters via VS match. Greninja turned out to be one of the last unlocks in VS matches, and he ended up being my fourth to last fighter unlock overall. >___>

At least I unlocked Chrom, Pichu, and Corrin about halfway through the grind, so that was nice.

I'll probably touch World of Light over the weekend. I did a bit of Spirit Mode, and it's interesting so far. I gotta get a feel for choosing the right spirits for my Greninja.

Also, I REALLY hope Nintendo will patch online in the next update. My biggest problem with it so far is that even if I specify "1 on 1" for my random online matches, it still puts me in a 4-player match. Thus, the only way I can really get a guaranteed 1 on 1 match is through the Arena mode. They need to give us an option that guarantees a 1 on 1 fight, maybe something like turning on a switch that says, "fight in that mode only."

Noticed a neat detail.

If you use Mario's Up B on an opponent there's a small chance that he collects Purple Coins instead of the usual Coins. Seems to be something that happens at random, and doesn't change the move in any way that I know of.

Thinking about it, I feel wonder red has a good shot for dlc.

He would be easy to get, is a beloved character. However no one expects him because his game sold poorly even though it had no major complaints from those that played it.

On top of that he brings a totally new fighting style and could still be promotion for a port or sequel.

He also could easily just be on the list as someone from recent Nintendo series. So I hope he happens. I’ll post my most unexpected choices tomorrow probably but they likely won’t be right but ya still fun.

Remind me though has wonder red gotten a spirit? I know blue has one but not sure about red

My brother and I were wondering that. As he kept getting nothing but purple coins in a few matches.

Alright, this new shorthop system?

It's ruining my muscle memory. Woof, is this taking some time to get used to.

I'm trying to break my habits from smash 4 in general. That being abusing shields and dodges. And I forgot about short hops for a bit.

Anyway, I'm having fun with most of the newcomers so far. I love the Belmonts, K. Rool, Ridley, and surprisingly Incineroar. Those are my favorites by far. Least favorite newcomer would have to be Isabelle unfortunately for my not-boyfriend who hasn't even heard of the best Metal band in his own country.(I think.)

Final Smash Meter isn't as fun as it looked.

I think I may actually prefer the Smash Ball, but I already preferred keeping FSes off to that.

I don’t mind having to unlock pretty much the whole roster, the fact that some just ****ing demolish you over and over is what’s frustrating when I got still 20 characters to unlock.
