Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

Some of you need to take a breather from this boxart discussion.

I don't know about you guys, but the current list of newcomers is already leagues better than what Smash 4 did for me. As overstated as this may be, what we have right now already guarantees us a pretty awesome roster. No need to shed tears on the characters who didn't make it. Focus on the ones who did make it.



At the very least, it's been applied to every unique newcomer.

Inkling - Splatoon remix one week after Ultimate's official reveal.
Ridley - Metroid remix same day of reveal/Ultimate's reveal.
Simon/Richter - Castlevania remix same day of reveal.
K. Rool - Donkey Kong remix one week after reveal.
Isabelle - No new Animal Crossing remix yet.
Possible Gen VII Pokemon? - No new Pokemon remix yet

Echoes are a bit more shaky. It's looking like each series is only getting one remix, so DS and Richter wouldn't need one. However, like you said, Daisy and Ken wouldn't work at all though. I'm thinking Chrom's remix was just a coincidence and Echoes aren't involved at all.


Regardless, I do think it's a theory people shouldn't ignore. It feels like it has some substance to it, and it would certainly make sense from a marketing standpoint. Personally, Isabelle will dictate whether or not I continue to believe this. If AC gets a remix this week, then I'm almost 99% sure the following newcomer will be from a franchise that hasn't gotten a track yet. Otherwise, I'll lay off this theory and you can tell me how wrong I was.
Chrom absolutely wasn't a coincidence. He was an incredibly highly requested character and like the other newcomers, was highlighted. Inkling and Daisy didn't get a remix of their franchise for quite a while too. And again, Ken. When we get Ken, we won't get a new Street Fighter remix, meaning the music theory is bogus

It really won't feel right if they don't do this.. I also don't see Sakurai rehashing an idea someone has already done. Like Phoenix Wright or Amaterasu fighting in Smash. If we get Heihachi it'll probably be his old version since PSABR used his younger appearance.
He can still make them play different enough not to be rehashes, yet similar enough to be true to their character. I also don't think Capcom has a problem with Sakurai reusing Ammy and Phoenix's moves from MvC3, as long as they are true to character. In fact it might make it easier for Sakurai to develop Ammy and Phoenix into Smash.

Beside when you think of it, nearly every fighter in Smash is a rehash, cause he is using ideas someone has already done for movesets, since this game is a crossover. Also that would mean Ryu, and Heihachi wouldn't be eligible for Smash since Sakurai is rehashing movesets that someone already made too in Ryu case they are the exact same moves as his game. So what makes Ammy and Phoenix the exception?

As a fan of more obscure genres and games, I'm running on pipe dream fuel.
Here are some of my pipedream characters
Dillon
Blaziken
Conkeldurr
Dragonborn
A Dragon Quest hero (I'm not even a fan of DQ, I just think this should be repped)
Venom (Eddie Brock...ha ha! #notjoking)
EDIT: Forgot Hawlucha!

Once upon a time, Mewtwo and Wolf were pipedream characters...

Well since Echo Fighters are a well-received thing, what would be your reaction if the 1st wave of DLC were all 4 echoes?

No, I don't mean of each other...
My expectation for DLC is it will either be a Season Pass or free like Splatoon. I figure Nintendo will want to keep supporting the game for a while. They noted it's help Splatoon's sales and its one of their strategies for increasing the install base. Now that they have online they'll want to do this so you buy online (one reason it may be free. Make it a loss leader). The only issue with free DLC is Namco Bandai is making the game and it may be an issue paying them to work on DLC. They do Season Passes more often and that may be the case here. The other reason to do this is it allows you to do bundles of characters rather than individually.

As long as I get Springman and Rex down the road I'll be happy.

First of all I want to warn you that all this can be false, an old friend who already gave me game information told me all this, but he already told lies and also revealed many true things.
So please take all this with a big grain of salt.


He gave me some words indicating characters that are going to be playable in Smash Ultimate. He warned me that I could post all this somewhere.

"Peramelemorphia"
"Agamidae"
"Erinaceinae"
"Virtual Lacertilia"
"Demon Felis"
"Fire Karategi"
"Gấu"
"Extremitats"
"Suryaprabha"
"Stalflute"
"Star Nukke"
"Tiikeri Taistelija"
"Condemn Destruction"
"Fool Guy"
"Artis"


That's all he gave me.
Sorry for any problems.
-No idea
-Idk but "aga" just makes me think Agumon
-idk
-idk
-Incineroar?
-Ken?
-idk
-idk
-idk
-"Stal" Skull Kid, "flute" Skull Kid in OoT attacks with a flute + rocks or darts or whatever
-idk, but it makes me think Geno because "star"
-idk

How would you all feel if Neku was actually our SE character at the end of the day?
I mean Sakurai digs TWEWY and even used the difficulty system for KI:U and Smash 4.
I mean he even took the pin battling from that game for 3DS.
I think it's unlikely, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised.

Not a bad argument, but I'll disagree As someone who doesn't like FE and thinks it's a series for jabronis, it's clear to me they had different reasons for not including chrom. Too similar to Martha didn't stop them for going ahead and creating Lucina instead of just making chrom the clone, but they **** on him incessantly in pits guidance lol
I doubt it was because of Lucina since she was originally a costume and Sakurai most likely decided to later add her as a last minute clone to pad out the roster since she had most of the assets already to make her a seperate fighter. This is also seen in Smash Ultimate she is an echo now and isn’t considered seperate from Marth anymore.
Shhhhh... Hence why there are really only 5 Fire Emblem characters: :ultmarth::ultroy::ultike::ultrobin:ultcorrin:.

Sakurai went in depth with why Chrom wasn’t chosen, even stating that he tried to come up with a moveset for him but couldn’t make him stand out. That’s why Robin and Corrin were chosen, both characters provided something unique that Sakurai wanted to work on, heck he didn’t bring up Corrin until Intelligent Systems brought him up to Sakurai.

Oh boy this is a HUGE one. No more making the fans have to check EVERY character to find changes please.

Which in my case normally meant checking Smashboards to see what smarter people had found. But the point still stands!
I hope poor Thinkaman Thinkaman doesnt have to compile them all again either. Seems busy enough as is.

It's crazy how I've reached a point where the only characters that could really make me even more hyped are ones with absolutely no chance such as Midbus or Rusty Slugger, or Mr. L as a Luigi echo, and similar things.
Pretty much the only character that I really care about getting in anymore is Geno, and in a super distant second, third, and fourth Banjo, Shantae, and Isaac. Waluigi, Ashley, and Takamaru already got BTFO but could easily be in the running for the next game, Springman is new enough that this game isn't make or break for him, Isabelle, Ridley, and K. Rool are in, and Dixie, Impa/Tetra, and Medusa are characters I'd be okay with as Echoes. I've actively supported Geno in Smash online for 13 years and been a fan for 22 so he's the last character that I have put an actual investment in as a fan so, once he's in, Smash is a good as it'll ever get for me roster wise because my top 5 for the history of Smash have been Geno, Dedede, Wario, Megaman, and an Animal Crossing rep.

Ryu is the symbol of fighting games. He wouldn't count. Just like Pikachu is the symbol of Pokemon. I wouldn't say that is rehashing if your just using the default icon to represent the entire franchise.

Phoenix Wright and Amaterasu are more of a pipe dream. I love Phoenix but I think I can say with confidence that neither of them will ever be "playable" in Smash. Prove me wrong Sakurai....

On another note. If Dante makes it in by some miracle. It would give Sakurai the chance to add the Dante that we deserve...unlike PSABR...

Different circumstances. Ganondorf was thrown in as filler in /MELEE/. Internet barely existed back then much less Smash requests. So Chrom getting Ganondorfed in this day and age would seem a bit off.
There was smash requests. Ganon did good on them. Which is why he got in.

Ooh, Ninjask is lowkey on of my favorites (I have a lot of favorites). His movepool doesn't give a lot to work with but sure, why not?

Ninjask has an extremely fast run and air mibility, as well as having three air jumps. However, he is extremely light and his attacks generally do very little damage.

Up Special - Aerial Ace. Ninjask quickly flies in a cirular loop at an upwards angle. Can snap to the ledge, but has short range. Good frame data but weak kill power. Mostly used as an out of shield option and combo finisher. Because Ninjask returns to his starting position it does not put him into special fall.

Neutral Special - X-Scissor. Makes two large slashes directly in front of Ninjask in the shape of an X. On of Ninjask's more powerful moves, good for catching spot dodges.

Side Special - U-turn. Ninjask quickly flies forwards then returns to his original spot. Smash inputting the move will increase its range. If spaced well, it can snap to the ledge. Good for catching landings and safe on shield on most characters if properly spaced.

Down Special - Sand Attack. Ninjask swipes the down, launching sand forwards close to the ground. It has a slashing hitbox and a sand hitbox. The sand doesn't make the target flinch but has a powerful windbox. The slash is a powerful kill move but has very short range. If used in the air, sand isn't launched.
I'll try Gallade, one of favorite Fighting-types!

Gallade has mostly average run speed (around Mario), but slightly above average air mobility (very slightly). His attacks are generally strong (like Link), and fairly quick. Has the ability Steadfast, which if he ever flinches to a weak hit, his speed (ground and air) increases by 10%.

U-special - Aerial Ace: A quick upwards slice in the air, similar to Simon and Richter's uppercut. Great for off the top KOs, and has decent vertical and horizontal distance due to the to angle the direction, but Gallade is left vulnerable if he misses.

N-special - Psycho Cut: A far-reaching horizontal slash in front of Gallade. However, it can be charged as well, and damages opponents who get too close to him. It KOs fairly easily when fully charged (think of Marth's Shield Breaker for instance) and can still keep opponents away at low percent, but has a bit of endlag (couple of additional frames, perhaps) in order to prevent spamming.

S-special - Night Slash: A slash with a dark effect added to it. Has a unique critical hit effect, in which it has almost enough launch power to one-hit KO, but has a 1-in-20 chance of happening. Quicker than Psycho Cut, but slightly weaker.

D-special - Swords Dance: Gallade hold out his hands above his head, and does a chant to summon a clanking group of swords (later SD animation reference). Raises damage values by 20% for 15 seconds. However, charging takes three seconds, and it must be uninterrupted, or the Swords Dance only raises damage values by 5%.

Final Smash - Final Duel: This is original material, being a mix of two moves. Gallade transforms into Mega Gallade dashes across the stage (going through opponents through the stage), and if he hits anybody during the dash, they are sent to a regular route (with ample space), and Gallade first uses Psycho Cut on opponents at high speed for a few seconds, then unleashes Close Combat for the KO.

Gallade is only male, as that's how it is in Pokémon. I won't get started on Gardevoir though.

No, he got in because he could be easily cloned from Falcon, specifically because the tech demo existed.

It's possible he would've gotten into Brawl, but there's no way to know that for sure. Popularity didn't get him in so much as perfect timing and available assets.

Yeah Ganondorf would have absolutely made it in Brawl if he wasn't in Melee. Ultimately, it's for the best this way as we have the best design and one of the most fun movesets in the franchise

I probably late with my character rating list but here it is (leaving out Shantae cause most have already gave their opinion about her):

Amaterasu
Elma
Tetra
Rayman
Sora
Gardevoir
Fjorm
Joker
Rex and Pyra
Valkyrie
I might be sorta late with this character rating thing, but here would be my personal choices for Smash (base or dlc), go ahead and rate if you feel so inclined:

- Skull Kid
- Tetra (semi-clone)
- Shadow (Echo)
- Tails
- Marx/Bandana Dee
- Paper Mario
- Neku
Darn you beat me to it, I was gonna add Tetra (semi clone) to my list above. Well here you go.
Not my most wanted Zelda newcomer, but I'm kinda warming up to him considering he's a trickster.
YES! YES! ALL THE YES'S IN THE SEVEN SEAS!
Aw, echo? Eh better than nothing.
Alright!
Eh, not interested
So *friend's name here* you thought you could just kick my butt with Mario? Well now I have my OWN MARIO *maniacal laugh*
Sure I'll definitely take him.
I want more fire emblem chracthers
Give me Fjorm, and I'll be happy.

Release Lyn for DLC, and I'll be over the moon with joy.

If you could give one additional unique attack to any Echo Fighter of your choosing, who would it be and what move would you give them?

I'd change Chrom's side special from the Double Edged Dance to the Javelin toss. Chrom is able to utilize lances as well as swords, and the javelin is a major recurring Fire Emblem weapon, so it'd be nice to have in Smash. On the ground, you can affect its trajectory as Chrom winds it up, giving him a projectile to further separate him from Roy. In the air, it can't be angled and follows a set path. However, when airborne, Chrom gets a small horizontal boost when using the move, just like Mewtwo's Confusion, making it somewhat easier to recover.

How about you guys?

Simon/Richter (or Bayo) but it's way too ****ing early to tell.
I actually don't think Sichter is going to do that well.

While he has exceptional range and good zoning options, he seems to lack any fast moves that cover space around him like Cloud. It feels like if he gets his momentum halted or someone breaches his offense, like Sheik who can do that pretty easily, he's rather vulnerable.

I think you need to be more careful about who you trust for sources, the vast majoirty of "leakers" will just be pulling your leg, and I dont't think over a dozen characters will be revealed in less than 3 months.

Also the first hint you gave was for crash bandicoot, i kinda knew not to google any more after that.

"Probably" feels more accurate. We don't know what Sakurai what would've done. He's popular, of course. But we also have to consider what he saw in a moveset. He still refers to Ganondorf entirely as a lucky addition. Consider how little he has done to change his moveset. He may have not had enough inspiration for him to get into Brawl. It could've been as early as 4. I feel he'd have gotten in at some point, though.

I agree that he has an awesome moveset that truly fits the characterization. It's part of why I don't feel canon moves are as important as the personality being a major factor. Being creative helps. It's why I entirely redid Brian's moveset, because he was boring as just a "slap moves here and there with no coherent theme". I retooled it, while keeping many moves, to have a real mechanic. More than one, even. I feel this is what makes a newcomer fun, even if they're a clone or echo. Dark Samus is a great one because despite not having her own moves, she still feels very accurate in the long run personality-wise. Them toggling the weight via the in-game option is a great way to separate her without changing any actual character attributes. That's a beautiful and creative way to make an Echo their own thing.

Speaking of, isn't Chrom and Dark Samus the only two Echoes to be confirmed for having some very notable differences at this point? I mean, Final Smashes aside.

Dark Samus: Scattershot. Charging the move works the same as usual but instead of a Charge Beam shot, she fires a barrage of small Phazon projectiles. The more she charges, the more projectiles burst out. They also go through enemies. A great way to rack up damage, especially in 4+ player matches, but they have Falco Blaster tier knockback

However, when airborne, Chrom gets a small horizontal boost when using the move, just like Mewtwo's Confusion, making it somewhat easier to recover.

How about you guys?
Give daisy a new Down special
She would take out a Mario party Block and throw it, and depending on the Number, the damage ouput changes,
So, think Judge, but as a projectile.
It's very similar to Vegetable, but with more flare.

If you could give one additional unique attack to any Echo Fighter of your choosing, who would it be and what move would you give them?

I'd change Chrom's side special from the Double Edged Dance to the Javelin toss.

Dark Samus. Fully charged charge shot releases 3 orbs above her current position. Pressing B again will cause an orb to fly at the nearest opponent, setting up for crazy comboes and giving Dark Samus an unprecedented amount of stage control, just like her boss fight in Prime 3.

Think Duck Hunt can but actually cool and intimidating.

I want more fire emblem chracthers
For me it'd very much depend on who it is. Celica's the only one I want that has a technically-non-zero shot of getting in, but if the sky were the limit? Celica, Merric, Virion, Caeda, Silque, Tobin, Frederick, Hardin, Mae, Saber, Lena, Minerva, Tiki, Julian, Ogma, Valbar...there are a lot of characters that I think would be great.

It's just that, like Pokémon, most of my favorites tend to not be the ones Sakurai picks. :p Fortunately I have my favorite :ultchrom: and fifth favorite :ultmarth: Fire Emblem characters in though.

I still feel the need to come here every once in a while and argue against Sonic's moveset. I know that the more competitive players like the two spin dashes because of mix-ups but I am sure that the casual players would like to see more variation.

The two spindashes might be good for competitive fights but if Sonic gets a brand new move he could be even better. Not all changes are bad changes, try something new.
