Screen taken from 2:45 to 2:52 in this video that apparently shows some 3.5 footage: [LOL VID WENT PRIVATES]

Looks like we might actually be getting a significant overhaul to de-polarize our matchups and possibly become a more balanced/interesting character.

I can't waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait

Looks like they probably did; but it's also possible I jumped the gun.

I just wish we knew for sure one way or the other, so I could know whether or not to bother practicing current bowser. =/

I'm skeptical. Dry Bones Bowser looks smaller because he's boney. If they did shrink Bowser, that also means goodbye range, which makes a ton of matchups worse for us.

Hmm... Well, as long as he doesn't get his t-rex-arm melee range back, then imma stay optimistic. It's not like this will be the ONLY change.

Edit: Calling out Bowser quitters. That's what a secondary is for amirite???

Really hope this is a thing. Yeah, it'll nerf his range, but it's not like he actually has any mobility to use it right now. Please do what Odd said in the OP, pmbr. I want an actually good Bowser.

It's a nerf, lol. The range reduction hurts more than the teeny tiny amount of difficulty that comboing Bowser now presents. Most importantly the size reduction means we can't cover entire platforms with any usmash or utilt any more and we're forced to commit to uair.

Nerf nerf nerf
