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.

btw, what makes katalina the ideal granblue rep anyway
She's the most important party member in the main story that isn't Lyria. Gameplay wise, she doesn't have too much and I can off the top of my head come up with about 20 characters who are better for a fighter, recognizability be damned

I find it strange that Hitagi practically has never heard anything about any of the popular picks asked in that thread besides Steve, Katalina and possibility of DQ, and now has chosen to break their silence about Smash this week. And info about Square characters were all dropped willy nilly but Verge is adamant about keeping quiet.

It wasn't too long ago where Hitagi doesn't want to talk anymore about smash yet here we are
i'm guessing his sources aren't in much danger if he's freely talking about the characters that are in. which makes me think that maybe steve, katalina and a DQ rep are common knowledge among insiders. but that's just me thinking too much.

There are better characters IMO, but Katalina makes the most sense as the main rep. Gran/Djeeta are avatar characters that don't have a specific fighting style, so they wouldn't really be good for Smash. Katalina is like the second or third person you meet and is part of the main crew. She's also looking to be the main protagonist for Granblue Re: Link.

That's a better idea than thinking she's leakbait because Katalina is probably the worst example of how to make good leakbait.

So I got a sick new signature, I'm making this post halfway to make sure the image shows up right.

Although now that I've got Squritle in my avatar and Charizard in my sig, poor Ivysaur is getting shafted over her more popular teammates yet again. I need to do something to fix that...maybe pull a "Zinith" and slap an Ivysaur emote at the end of a bunch of my posts?

:002:...Actually that sprite is kind of ugly. Never mind.

What's that? I want to dump robin (magic swordsman) & lucina (female swordie) out for katalina (a magic swordswoman, with bigger tiddies), since she fulfills their respective roles in a much better way?

Yes, yes I do

btw, what makes katalina the ideal granblue rep anyway? is she the mascot?
Think she is starring in a new game that Platinum is making that may(?) have some rumors of a localization. Best I can think of in support for her being the rep. Would make some sense if that is how they want to bring the series over to the west.

what if grinch hoax man decided to put incineroar in his drawing, in the sorta same pose as in the official art
(like how ken's pose coincidentally looks similar to his grinch pose)
Honestly, if Incineroar HAD been in the Grinch leak, I think a lot of the Insiders probably would have fallen for it as well when their main hangup seems to have been "Where's Incineroar?"

ok
now who has the biggest tiddies, but is also the most interesting
OKAY, HERE WE GO


Threo/Sarasa/Thalatha-- Heavy axe character (who can become a sword user) who's in universe thing is HIT HARD AND HIT HARDER!

Neutral B: A super heavy charged axe slam that lets out a shockwave. Charges like Roy/Ike's neutral B and if you do it in the air, the landing releases and does a shockwav in both directions.
Side B: A swing so hard that it carries her forward, and with good timing, you can destroy projectiles
Down B: GROUND ZEROOOOOO!!! Smash the ground super hard and do damage that gets higher the closer you are to her. Slow animatioon but if you fall into it, you're gonzo
Up B: A vertical recovery like Aether, but it buries you if you are caught in the downswing

I think you can have the site automatically append things to the end of your posts.

I might have seen an option for it... somewhere in one of the settings pages.

Now, that we have this subject at hand, it reminded me of that guy who used to hang around here and complained a lot about the changes Zero Suit Samus received. It really seems like the perfect time for him to come and rally for his change. I wonder what happened to him….

Hmm, yes, but where's the resident iaijutsu user?
There's always one in every piece of Japanese fiction, even if it makes no sense to be there.

if only grinch man put in incineroar in the grinch leak (not really a leak anymore tbh, since it turned out to be a hoax), he would have fooled us all
too bad he (and everyone at the time) hated incineroar too much to make his leak credible

People in general are bad at analyzing what is and isnt leakbait.
*remembers Isaac and Shadow*
*remembers Incineroar*
Yeah, lets not try to guess who is and isnt leakbait. This community is really bad at it.

So Incineroar 2.0?

Come to think of it, Fire vs. Ice would make a good theme for the "leakbaits" :p
