as opposed to "just recover for free, every time. it's cool, man."
or maybe you could grow some balls and actually leave the stage to try and edgeguard

edgehogging is literally just "I don't want my opponents to be able to recover but I also don't want to have to actually try to stop them"

So, Project M... Project M...

*taps fingers*

...g2gfast? Sanic fast?

I have literally no idea what I'm doing, sorry guys. XD
Just trying to spark up a convo, don't murder my soul please! c:

Anyone else think Project M's air mechanics are a LOT more... tight and all that? Like, especially when you go from Sm4sh to Project M. Like holy crap it feels tight and unresponsive at first. I'm not the only one that gets that, right? :p

(After a while it's fine but at first, HOLY JESUS...)
Yo dude stop stealin' my mains

And yeah I can see that, but that's a combination of an overall faster game speed+maybe your fingers not moving too fast for those smooth movements.

some of you really need to quit worrying about other people's game preference.... Just play what you like and ignore what you don't.

i didn't like brawl so i played melee. I don't like Smash 4, so i'll be playing Project M (thanks PMDT) ...no amount of arguing is gonna change that

hey, play what you want, but don't be surprised when opinions exist

also I specifically mentioned diddy because his barrels that fall from him when he up-b's are completely RNG-dependent w/r/t their angle, so there's no such thing as a consistent way to edgeguard him since even the most guaranteed option can end up with you getting a barrel to the jaw

Also I like certain things RNG'ed

I haven't played the new Smash yet so I can't say anything now, but if edgeguarding turns out to be impossible or heavily unfavorable, then I'm going to be royally pissed at this new ledge metagame.

Hello everybody. I'm starting my late shift at the office now so please entertain me for the next 6 to 8 hours k thx.

I'll start a topic. What do you guys think I should set my buttons to for my 3ds when smash comes out? Should I make it as close to the gamecube melee controls as possible or is there an even more optimal setting for my maximum performance?

Also do you guys think I should disable up-analog-jumping so I can perform up-tilts and up-smashes easier and rely solely on a face button for jumping?

Meow meow, meow.

I'm kinda bummed out. Now that Youtube is being filled with Smash 4 vids, I'm losing interest in watching PM stuff... I'm just kinda hyped about playing :4villager:, :4littlemac:, :4duckhunt:, and :4ludwig:.
probably playing PM for the wrong reasons then. you'll eventually learn to play games for their value instead of their release date. until then, enjoy smash 4.

I think you can get pretty close.

Smash 4 and PM will continue to be like night and day for the same reasons it is for PM and Brawl/Melee. PM is designed specifically for perfect competitive balance and vast technical learning curves and the official releases are less competitively viable and more for "fun".

Honestly I'm still not sold on S4. Literally even. I don't know if I'll buy it yet.

Please read the part where I mention that there is literally no time to do such a punish as uSmash persists after the spot dodge ends, meaning the second my intangibility ends I'm going to get hit.
You're misunderstanding me. You can't CC Peach's D-Smash and expect to be able to punish. You have to use something besides a spotdodge.

I don't like Smash 4, so i'll be playing Project M
This isn't me trying to criticize what you like or dislike, but do you have the Japanese version of Smsh3DS? I'm just saying, since the game hasn't been released widely yet, it seems pretty early to say that one doesn't like the game. Not saying that you can't make a prediction based on what you know, but still.

Can I take a moment to like say that the wording of this makes it sound like a shot of the harshest variety?

Is there anything yet suggesting Ganon is NOT going to be poopy-tier like he was in brawl?

He looks the same in the vids i've seen.

I feel like a requirement to be a part of the PMDT is to have mastery over the art of subtlety.

Ganon IS better than he was in Brawl.

But by virtue of being Ganon, he can't possibly ever be better than anything besides another game's Ganon.

Fox Falco and Falco Fox is Mango's favorite MUs, I might chose that too. I've done a lot more Falco dittos than any other MU in Melee though with my Falco Asian friend. Axe also loves the Falco ditto he said, but Mango has a couple reasons to distaste it as his view goes.

Awesome Iron Giant ref. -that guy was a great character even amongst the entire history of animated characters. **** man why don't they make movies like that anymore. I know it wasn't Disney. *googles*...
Serious answer: They do. Shoutouts to The Incredibles 2 down the line.
Non-serious answer: Because like so many other things, folks who know the following field very well are somewhat rare now:

True. As much as I love the Incredibles, I was really talking about well-made 2D animated movies. I feel like seriously Iron Giant was the last good hand-drawn film.

Ganon kind of feels like PM ganon but a bit slower.
You're kidding me. That'd be amazing. It looked like his moveset was completely unchanged from brawl.

It is, maybe I just didn't play Ganon enough in Brawl to properly compare. His uair kills surprisingly well though.

That’s a pretty presumptuous thing to say. Playing PM for the wrong reasons? I play PM because I ENJOY it. I have a lot of fun with the game, as I do with Melee, Brawl, and 64. If a friend asks me to come over and play any of these games, my answer is “Hell Yeah,” even if I enjoy PM more than the other three.

Why I’m more interested in watching Smash 4 vids than PM right now? It’s new, plain and simple. The game has characters and mechanics that do not exist in the other games and I can’t wait to play and experiment with that. Is there anything wrong with that? I don’t thinks so. I can’t wait to play as fast Bowser. Now, it’s very possible that I won’t enjoy the game as much as PM, and if that’s the case, THAT will define my game I like most. Not the release date. I have a lot of respect for you, Strong Bad, but I feel like you jumped to conclusions there.


Smash 4 and PM will continue to be like night and day for the same reasons it is for PM and Brawl/Melee. PM is designed specifically for perfect competitive balance and vast technical learning curves and the official releases are less competitively viable and more for "fun".
And that’s a fair comparison, even though Nintendo did take some strides in making Smash 4 competitive (how competitive it will be in the end is yet to be seen).

Personally, I play games I enjoy over competitive value. I recently got Tekken Tag 2 for Wii U. I'm not great at Tekken and I don't know how this one compares to the others "competitively", but I bought it because I enjoy it... and I get to play as a bear that knows martial arts.
