Can someone help clarify how we know what fighter spirits are and which one they are as well? I'm really confused by how it all works

 

[Plumstar]

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

....Actually, that's an accurate way of describing the fan base . But I also think our fan base is the most chill and not attack others unless it's necessary , just like Kirby. For instance, if someone eats my cake you'll see a trail of destruction everywhere I go.

 

[Troykv]

So does that mean you like a certain Darkstalker? Cute, red, has guns...

------------

Oh Bonnie, she is great xD

She is cute, over-the-top and quite hilarious xD

 

[NineS]

Is anyone gonna tell me if my boi comes up? I have stuff to do...

Don't worry, I'll @ you any time yoshi is brought up.

as return, i ask that you @ me any time anything nier is brought up and i'm not around.

 

[staindgrey]

Is World of Light going to be enough though?

It's comparable to SSE in Brawl and that game had All Star, Home Run Contest, Break the Targets, Event Mode and Stage Builder.

Is Spirits enough to compensate for that?

If Spirits is fun to play, then yes.

SSE was all about those cutscenes. It wasn't actually, like... fun. At all. It was mediocre platforming made for the lowest common denominator of character movement with repetitive, bland enemies. I went to replay it in the buildup to Smash 4 because my Wii U didn't have my old Brawl data, and suddenly I remembered, "Hey wait. This kinda sucks."

If Spirits is enjoyable and replayable, I'll take it over SSE and stadium stuff. But that's just me.

 

[LetterO]

Poor Richter got screwed over by that Special Flag, geez.

 

[Starbound]

NOOOOOO Richter ;(

 

[Deleted member]

Bro they put Piranha Plant in

I tried, Luigi. I tried to show them the splash screen.

even though geno really isn't "deconfirmed" when there are so many variations of playable fighters as a spirit

 

[Will]

Is Roy, dare I say, becoming top tier?

 

[Noipoi]

Bro they put Piranha Plant in

Yes, yes they did. It's beautiful, isn't it?
Welcome back.

 

[Nethermoosen]

Tournament comes down to the two Swagmasters of Smash

 

[blackghost]

Just because it's called All-Star Mode doesn't mean it actually is.

its called all star mode in the direct.

 

[Will]

How the **** did Roy kill him twice in TEN SECONDS

 

[Starbound]

Richter with that Dash Attack -> Mom combo.

 

[staindgrey]

Is Roy, dare I say, becoming top tier?

Unless the person playing Roy is the best perfect shielder in the universe and isn't playing against a character who can just spam projectiles all over the screen, then that could never happen.

Keeping the base-of-the-sword thing was such a terrible idea.

 

[Deleted member]

WHAT THE ****???

HOW IS THE MOM POPPING OUT OF LITERAL TIME RIFTS? BACK, DEMON, BACK.

 

[Noipoi]

rip Richter

 

[ZephyrZ]

Not able to watch the livestream right now, but did I see people saying Gladion's theme is in? Nice, that was one of my only realistic desires for this game.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Richter with that Dash Attack -> Mom combo.

What is a mom combo, exactly?

 

[Starbound]

So is Roy top tier now?

 

[Will]

ROY'S OUR BOY

 

[Starbound]

What is a mom combo, exactly?

You know the mom that comes in on the gamer stage?

Richter hit Roy into it and mom's lasers caught him and killed him.

 

[Noipoi]

Not able to watch the livestream right now, but did I see people saying Gladion's theme is in?

Nice, that was one of my only realistic desires for this game.

I couldn't hear it that clearly, but it sounds like a remix. A pretty good one too.

 

[SAMation]

...and this is why I don't think a Granblue character is coming. https://t.co/VgHeBxwtCm

You know. He makes a compelling argument. And Sakurai does too.

i think thats a weak argument of why a granblue character cant be in smash. Not all smash characters are well known, like Marth/Roy in Melee and Lucas in Brawl. If its popular in one region it still has a chance, and ~20 million downloads in japan isnt anything to shrug at. If not for smash, Lucas would be less known about than a granblue character.

Given I dont know much about granblue, just saying that sakurais comment doesnt change the status of that character getting in one way or the other.

 

[Deleted member]

Well I must say I am impressed with what I have seen from the Belmonts! Can't wait to try out !

Also, holy crap did and get buffed while I wasn't looking?!

 

[Zinith]

Wait, did someone say earlier that they heard the New Island remix?

 

[blackghost]

that tournament convinced me that Simion and ricther have very bright futures. it always takes zoners longer to unleash their potential. brood made duck hunt relevant with a character with more potential i expect him to do well in this game.

I was trying to compare Spirits to all of the other modes besides SSE.

But it depends on fleshed out Spirits actually is (outside of World of Light).

 

[BrytonJ]

There's no way to know until the game comes out but I really hope there's a boss rush mode you unlock after you finish WoL like there was in Brawl. That mode was honestly super radical.

 

[SuperSmashStephen]

Oh Dear God, I just saw where Chrom is still in Robin’s Final Smash.

I can’t wait for the endless chatter of Waluigi, Isaac, and Shadow supporters who will use this information to stake their claim that they still have a chance to be playable.

When will it end?

 

[Starbound]

Wait, did someone say earlier that they heard the New Island remix?

Yeah there is one.

 

[Idon]

Dunno about Roy, but definitely Ike.
They took a bit out of his power and massively upped his speed and aerial frame data.

 

[PsySmasher]

Alright guys...

Roy's getting OMEGA NERFED.

 

[SvartWolf]

ROY'S OUR BOY

Items are our boy.

at least they could put items on low for finals ._.

Richter was robbed!

(anyone need a little salt BTW? XD)

So you're biased for Shadow that you think not even Shadow supporters are that sinful?
You clearly seem to see Waluigi and Isaac supporters are scum and/or unfavorable.
Reveal your secrets.

It was fun while it lasted

Annoucements for the 23rd and 24th!

smh this is why walk-offs are banned.

 

[Luigi The President]

To be fair, Sakurai only added Lucas because he thought Mother 3 was also releasing outside of Japan.
