[Starbound]

I think this is a new song from New Island?

 

[Zinith]

I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm glad I missed it. Kirby's my favorite video game character of all time, and I've already had a pretty bad day, so the last thing I'd feel like seeing is people disrespecting my childhood hero.

Last post on this I swear...

I DO NOT HATE KIRBY!!!

Here's a link to the Ultimate tournament livestream.

Thanks.
Yoshi's Story is on right now, with a Yoshi's New Island track.

Jokes aside, if EarthBound is getting THIS much love, it'll fill the hole in my Aegis-shaped heart for Rex. THE FACT THAT NESS AND LUCAS HAVE A NEW ****ING VICTORY THEME. YOU GUYS.

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.

I mean, I'm VERY shocked a LOT of characters are getting new themes, but NESS AND LUCAS? About damn time us Mother fans get our due. God bless ya, Sakurai.

This is the second time they've got a new victory theme. Was changed before in Brawl.

 

[Idon]

That is debatable; but I agree Ike is special.

Yeah, I wouldn't say that he's the only good FE lord.
There's a treasure trove of good FE characters, that's unfortunately really hard to find due to there being a ton of characters and a lot of those characters following archetypes.

But Ike's really special in that, in a series where everyone is some blue-blooded royalty or some mystical bloodline descendant...

IKE IS A HOBO WITH A SWORD.

Galeem needs a monstah to clobbah dat dere Kirbeh

 

[Slavic]

Honestly you just did them a favor,

look, my computer is too full of sweaty pictures of Shaq to make room in my life for another, so I'm going to have to pass

 

[Noipoi]

Lol you think so? I think most people would enjoy them but you might be referencing something else.

If you're talking about who I think you're talking about, and they're into that sorta thing, then yes. You did them a favor.

While I hoped he'd be an echo fighter, this still pleases me immensely. I love my edgy mirror boy!

Seeing this earlier made my day.

I'm kinda conflicted. On the one hand, I already have 8 characters I wanna focus on, but on the other hand, I've been wanting to main one of the Kirby characters in Smash for so long now but could never decide which one.

 

[JustCallMeJon]

The biggest shocker for me in Ultimate is no Home Run contest and All Star. That NEEDS to be here.

 

[Starbound]

Does FS meter make FS moves have longer startup or something because no one is landing these tonight.

Are we sure we can't try them competitively?

 

[Will]

That Roy comeback was so ****ing sick.

Where can I hear this new victory theme?

I like Meta Knight's playstyle better, but I could never betray Dedede. Not after he saved us from Tabuu, not with that accent.

 

[Deleted member]

I missed the new theme, what is it?

It's a heavily revised version of Ness' Melee victory theme, basically.

I'm telling you, Noi, EarthBound and Mother 3 are ****ing masterpieces and to SEE THEM GET A NEW THEME SINCE BRAWL IS AMAZING.

 

[Shyy_Guy595]

Lol I'm so confused on where people are getting this info from, and I'm doing it pn purpose cause I want to play through the game blind

 

[RyuhoFox]

Very likely. lol. On topic didn't expect Roy to win that. Nor did I expect that Shiek to survive the torrent of pokemon and assists

 

[blackghost]

Nope. I feel like we're going full third party for DLCs. Especially with Rex and Spring Man deconfirmed.

people seem surprised by this. who would this mandatory 1st party Nintendo character even be?

 

[Calane]

Good. Kirby is happy.

I absolutely think we can. Every other fighter has supers.

Here at around 13:18 - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/331389895

 

[Dyllybirdy]

I went for the most ridiculous thing I could think of and wondered if anyone would actually catch on to that. lol

Thank you very much anyway. She's in some good stuff...

 

[Deleted member]

NESS HAS NEW VICTORY MUSIC

I REPEAT. NESS HAS NEW VICTORY MUSIC

Not surprising.
The Zelda characters and the Pokémon characters got slightly altered victory themes to shave off some time.

 

[Shroob]

Sora's Final Smash better be this -

.........D....did Sora....dab?



That's it, Spawn Wave's a fraud.

Oh good, the Melee theme was the best one.

I wanna play Mother 3, but I wanna play Earthbound first. However my tiny brain which can't comprehend anything other than Pokemon keeps getting stuck due to hard enemies. I'm stuck with Jeff right now, right before his sanctuary fight.

 

[StormC]

People were ranking newcomers earlier so now I will too.

S Tier


A Tier


B Tier




C Tier




D Tier




PP Tier


None of these I actually dislike, but the D tier is simply more in the "personally underwhelming" category more than anything. Brawl's newcomer list will always stand tall as the best, but this is a solid step up from Smash 4 for me.

I don't dislike Piranha Plant either, I'm just separating it since it's DLC, but honestly, try as I might, I'm quite interested in it, it simply looks like a ton of fun and offers something completely different from any Smash fighter before it. It's a joke fighter that I could actually see myself playing as. I'm just glad it's free (sorta), I hope the paid DLC has good stuff but I'm unsure after Smash 4. Guess we'll just wait and see...

 

[CHAMPIONX9]

Jiggly puff sounds ten times cuter in japanese.

 

[Zinith]

Good. Kirby is happy.

Wait. Ness...has a new theme?

STOP EVERYTHING, THIS IS A BIG DEAL. DOES ANYONE HAVE A LINK?

 

[Idon]

Oh God, Sichter looks like Link tuned up to 11.

 

[MaestroDavros]

I think it's really cool. MUCH better than Super Dragon, and I like the extremely positive responses I've been getting from people...

I just love Final Smashes when they result in running someone over, like Captain Falcon for example. I mean imagine you're just minding your own business and then...

Damn, brutal.

 

[Will]

Did this Jigglypuff just F-Smash twice instead of Rest when Richter was stunned by Sable?

 

[Noipoi]

The Kirby fan base is as monstrous and unholy as the abominations he fights against.
I should know, i'm part of it.

 

[Starbound]

Fully expecting to see a million Belmonts online.

This projectile game looks so fun.

This is honestly what I love most about Smash. I've never played Castlevania so I love seeing all these cool characters and getting interested in their source material.

 

[Troykv]

IKE IS A HOBO WITH A SWORD.

I personally think Micaiah is quite interesting as a character in Fire Emblem; in between the protagonist she is actually one of the few that is capable of doing not-so-heroic stuff for end; despite don't really like it.

I also find quite funny how Micaiah is one of the hardest main characters to get an good comparison character-wise because of how others are easier to connect to their "archetypes" (specially someone like Eliwood that is basically a more emotional Marth), unless you get a shallow analysis of her character.

I kept being told otherwise (even though I knew better)

 

[Deleted member]

Okay.

Richter might be an actual problem.

By that I mean he's lookin' delicious.

To play as. I mean, he's good looking, yeah, but these movements are CLEAN.

Yeah, Micaiah is a GREAT subversion of a character appearance.
Like, behind that delicate appearance, boy is she a tough cookie.

 

[JustCallMeJon]

So this is Games and More...

Seems to Remove:

• All Stars
• Target Blast
• Homerun Contest
• Stage Builder
• Master Orders
• Crazy Orders
• Character Costumization
• Trophies

Seems like Ultimate's Single Player is going to be shallow.

 

[Idon]

Wow look, we're suddenly Skyrim now.
