Non-competitive smashers will never do that. They are cowards. They will die.
Sarcasm appreciated
You seem to think I believe non competitive players to be drooling imbeciles who can't tell the c-stick from the x button. Well I think they might actually put more emphasis on aerial combat i.e. spiking and chasing to add a fresh aspect to the combat. You see how far mario's up b takes him in that screen shot? Maybe they are going to give every character formidable recovery in order to make chasing not AS risky but still exciting, while also making each character able to stay off the stage longer.
That makes no sense since you made a typo, and its a complicated phrase so im having trouble deciding what you actually meant..
Kirby and ness are easssy to edgeguard though. Especially ness. Pikachu too if you can predict the direction of the quick attacks and catch em, kind of like tech chasing.
Thank you for someone bringing this up, the recovery move that Mario performs in the screenshot totally looks 1.5 times the distance of in Melee, I have not personally checked this out, but by eyeballing it. Notice also the in Brawl, 2 of the 4 Newcomers (or 5 if you include Zamus) are characters that have multiple jumps (like Kirby and Jigglypuff). I'm thinking that Sakurai DOES want Brawl to be more aerial-based, but who knows...
Sigh it looks that way, but it REALLY REALLY isn't. Marios UP B goes no farther than normal, just see how far it is in SSBM first.
Okay, I'll take your word for it. I also thought that Mario's SSB64 third jump was longer than in Melee, but I wasn't really sure about that either. I figured that maybe it WAS longer in 64, but shortened for Melee, and put back in Brawl, but I wasn't really sure...
From what I can tell it's got more horizontal distance, but I've never played Mario enough to actually tell.Sigh it looks that way, but it REALLY REALLY isn't. Marios UP B goes no farther than normal, just see how far it is in SSBM first.
Its possible though, because I think his recovery as a whole was better in ssb64 but I doubt his up b got any shorter in melee, its a pretty high third jump.
See, if he jumped with his UP B from here, then it would be much higher. I believe the reason behind your theory (ive seen it posted like 12 times now) is this screenshot.
Now lets look at when mario uses his up b.
Don't even need to explain. Judge the distance in that photo, then turn on your GC and go to final destination with mario and sweetspot his up b. Same distance.
lol, as if sweetspotting is hard
This is like what you can do with the marios and the fire emblemers. You can preform your up-b in a more vertical way, but if you can fluidly up-b and slide the control stick to the side, marios/fire emblemers gain a little bit more horizontal distance, and a little less vertical distance. It just seems to have more horizontal distance that in Melee. I think the arguable "extension" in recovery moves can hint that we can expect a finely tuned aerial game. Speculation, don't flame me.
Great attitude. It's not even what we're discussing at the moment, and of course they would only be watching Japanese boards. Come on.
