Social Shulk Social : Starting to feel it!

I think he's referring to Satorai Marsh. As for the day or night variant, you got me there.

That choir was beautiful.

 

[TheHopefulHero]

I prefer the Night variant myself. Ironically enough, most of the side quests you do there tend to be in the Daytime.

The night time was what had the choir. I did not do much side questing mush.

 

[erico9001]

Umm, but there are a lot of favorites.

Anyways, I've been posting this like everywhere else, so might as well put it here too!:

bruh...why does this exist lmao. The weird thing is they actually made it kinda fit

 

[Berserker.]

Aw god. I love playing as Shulk so much

I love buster art and b-air <3

 

[smokebomb12]

My favorite arts Are Hyper Buster, Hyper Jump, and ,Hyper Smash.

I haven't really notice that glitch until I saw that video.

Imagine trying to 100% Xeno X.

Someone will do it. Someone willing to spend a year of their life trying will do it. lol

 

[LasermasterA]

Imagine trying to 100% Xeno X.

Did someone call me? I was planning to do so. Is it going to be that tough?

 

[dhblademaster]

Man.... Is it just me, or does scoring a dair spike on a Shiek feel absolutely great.

 

[TheHopefulHero]

It's not just you. It's a fact. It's almost just as good as killing someone with a proper Back Slash. (Dare I say, better than the Knee?)

 

[Berserker.]

If you manage to somehow edgeguard a decent Sheik player, you should feel amazed or accomplished regardless of which character you're using

 

[Champ Gold]

Gonna say this now, I hate fighting & as Shulk.

Especially the latter.
Jump Kirby is bull****

Jump Kirby is bull****

Those characters were discussed in the MU thread:

Rosalina
Kirby

Against Kirby, avoid throwing out attacks with a lot of commitment, wall him out, avoid getting inhaled. Mostly, just wall Kirby out. His range is severely lacking and his mobility is bad too. As for Rosalina, space your attacks against luma. Smash art is great against luma. Once Luma is out, you can basically go all-in against Rosalina with whatever art you want

 

[AlvisCPU]

Kirby's dair "spikes" feel horrible to be hit by. So pathetic, but pretty effective. Kind of like Sonic's up-B gimps...

Oh yeah, so by about two weeks for now this Smash event in my area.
By this point, I wanted to have learned:

• Perfect pivoting
• MALLC
• A secondary character to take Shulk's bad matchups
• Learn Shulk's play against top tier characters
• Practise

What I have learned:

• MALLC, kinda

Oh well. Fingers crossed I still make it out of pools. That's my goal.

 

[Berserker.]

I'm not sure how I'll ever mange to practice perfect pivoting. I really want to because I feel like it has potential to make Shulk's spacing a lot more lethal than it is. Thing is, I don't have a Wii U and I only ever get access to one once or twice a week

If you want a secondary that'd cover Shulk's bad match ups, pick between Mario or Sheik. Maybe Fox is a good idea but he's really hard to use. Basically, any top tier would be an amazing secondary for Shulk because... well, they're top tier. Lol

 

[Linkmario00]

@ AlvisCPU at least you can go to tourneys and play offline unlike me lol. I played once offline and it was against friends who never played smash before. I feel sad.
@ Berserker. Man, get that Wii U. It's really worth it, although I think you're gonna get it with X anyway lol. Also, PP is good, but the problem is the execution. I get it constantly on the left but I suck about the right side f.e.

 

[AirshBornely]

Ive been doing well in avoiding Xenoblade Chronicles X spoilers and haven't been giving much thought of it up until yesterday after listening to some music from it again. (Dang it MasterEnix) Nooooo...the urge is back... I need to forget about it again...

I'm clean. Still haven't watched any of them recent(ish) trailers or listened to songs other than ones from trailers.

Yeah, both songs I listened to were from the trailers.

Also:

Spoiler

Shulk finally got reunited with Fiora in XC. Ahhhh the feels!!! Keep in mind I started playing this game over a year ago and just recently got back into it so the feelings were intensified

 

[Berserker.]

The only soundtrack I listened to from Xenoblade X was Codename Z and "The Key that we've lost" or something

I don't know anything about Xenoblade X at the moment. Hopefully, it will stay that way until I manage to get the game (and a Wii U while I'm at it)

Think I've probably already discussed this here at some point, but at the moment the only other character I really play is Palutena... but she suffers from the same fast characters that Shulk does. I've been thinking about picking up one of Mario, Luigi, Fox or Captain Falcon for various reasons, but I've literally spent no time looking into what they do. Other than Mario and Luigi throw-comboing like jerks.

Pick up Mario then. He has a better MU spread than pretty much all the characters you've listed

He's not that hard to use and he's extremely solid. He's purely about fundamentals so for as long as you know how to do well at the neutral and how to optimize your advantage, Mario will bring you really far. You can check out the Mario boards for more info but I too know how to use the character so if you don't feel like checking out the Mario boards (which you should do btw), then feel free to ask me about the red plumber

 

[The_Art_of_Smash]

Hey, guys I'm a new member, whose a Shulk main. Guess I'm one of the small handful of Shulk mains who never played Xenoblade Chronicles. (I'll get around to it someday). I main Shulk because I love the way he plays. The 5 arts allow him to play in different ways. We also can't forget about that awesome range too!

 

[kenniky]

The only songs I've listened to (aside from directs) are the ones posted on the Japanese site. I think there were 4. Main Theme, Forgotten World, and two others that I don't know the names to.

Eyyy! You're the Shulk I met on Anther's Ladder, right? Welcome to Smashboards.

No. Someone has my username on another site?

Oh. Well, I met this one guy called Art Attack or something and said he was going to make a Smashboards account soon. What a coincidence.

Oh ok. Haha well that's a coincidence! But he's got a cool name, referencing a special move in Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door. Lol

I'm sure it could be a reference to a few things. I instantly thought of the 90's kids TV show. Goooood times

Edit: So in doubles I regularly team up with a Sonic player. We usually just run around at the speed of sound and try not to kill each other and it works out pretty well - but I've been trying to think of things we could do to actually work together. I know we can throw into Back Slash, Sonic can tackle the quick guys Shulk hates, could probably pull some stuff like Sonic fthrow -> Shulk uair... is there anything useful that you guys can think of?

Any throw can set-up very well into any of Shulk's attacks. Sonic's b-throw -> Back slash sounds good. Sonic can also perform a spin dash combo while you're there readying an up air. Idk much about Shulk and Sonic. That's all I can think of

Also, JP tier list. Shulk is 34th in C tier. Was hoping for D tier but this will do. Now let's hope we get another buff

I sometimes team with a Sonic player as well and we like to do Sonic Dthrow -> Shulk Usmash as a kill setup Basically Sonic's Dthrow keeps them close enough to the ground that you can follow up with pretty much anything as long as you hit them before they hit the ground and tech =)
Also at some percentages Sonic has a guaranteed footstool after his spindash so it can setup for Shulk's Usmash/Fsmash/Back slash too !

Shulk's Fthrow and Bthrow also lead pretty nicely to Sonic's Fair and Bair =)

Updated progress!

[collapse=]
I'm back on Prison Island and I've completed Colony 6! I've got almost all of the armor sets I wanted and even finished Replica Monado 1, now I've just got a few stray quests left... But I'm way underleveled to take on these 90+ monsters. I've also got 100% on the Collectopaedia other than the... "Other" section. Not sure what else I have left to do before continuing after Dickson.
