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.

People i know this is not relevant for Smash , but i need some advice...

I played League of Legends for more than 7 years.
On that time i got mad and raged on the game a ton of times.
Thats why i don't want to play it anymore...
But i actualy love the game so much.
I love the game , but i hate to play it.

Can you guys help me? Please?
I know a good way. Have your ads on YouTube on. Then have the YouTube ad system erroneously give you LOL ads for a year. By the end of the year, you will be sick of hearing the words League of legends.

Perhaps you should watch a streamer play LoL instead?

I might start maining Pichu in Ultimate honestly
Hmm, I was actually thinking of maybe playing Pichu some more too, this time around...
I kind of wish they would of gotten rid of the whole hurting yourself with Pichu's electric type attacks thing. Does the poor little fella have any pros that greatly balance out having such a huge con? óvò

I haven't been here for a bit so idk if anyone else picked up on this, but on the E3 poster/box art all the characters are actually surrounding/dodging one of Galeem's giant ass-whooping lasers.

World of light was in front of our eyes the whole time.

Neat.

Doc's Super Sheet reflecting upwards is super weird, but I'm still gonna play him.

I'm super excited for Doc's changes.

I do wonder though, if Doc's super sheet reflects up, does it do the same to characters?

It would be pretty interesting if Doc's Side B could pop characters up into the air.

I wonder if we could ever someday get a Mokujin/Edge Master styled character in Smash... Someone who copies entire move sets at random between stocks meaning to main them would be the ultimate show off.

Logically, it should. Who knows, maybe it will have more uses than turning your opponents around.

I'd say a class master from Final Fantasy could fulfill that role well. Firion, Onion Knight, Bartz, and Tiz/Agnes are pretty known for switching classes so you could make a pretty interesting moveset with them copying existing Smashers' moves.

Well i was thinking more ont he lines of changing movesets randomly so you would need to get good at everyone to keep up. What you suggested is alot more like Shang Tsung who can steal entire movesets. and it could work too not gonna lie it sounds cool .

So I decided to use that "Stage Tier List Maker" to make a tier list for the stages in Ultimate.

This tier list is based on which stages I find Most enjoyable to Least enjoyable.

I figured it'd be interesting to go over what I thought of each stage.

I don't think there's a Smash stage I hate (aside from Icicle Mountain, which isn't here), so the lowest tier on this list is E-Tier, which has stages that I find uninteresting.

He already has drawbacks via range and weight, and if they got rid of PT's hated mechanics and gave Ganondorf some sword moves I'm surprised they wouldn't at least nerf the self damage.

So Pichu is still pretty much Pikachu but with a whole ton of drawbacks and no upsides? I mean, I guess he's a little faster. Annnnnd...yeah, that's about it. I wonder what was the thought process behind this. Poor little guy </3

He's supposed to be a joke character. Despite that, his size and speed actually can make him quite dangerous in the hands of an experienced player. I wouldn't feel sorry for him too much, since I'm sure he won't be the worst character in the game.

I don't know, Pichu looks SSS-tier (if used by a skillful individual).

He seemed to be better than Melee Pichu in one video, but the other vids I've seen the player seemed to not play all that well. I thought his self-damage was reduced a little but I'm not sure as I don't remember what it is in Melee.

The thought process was "oh ****, we have 3 months to make a new character, what do we do to make them semi-unique." and thus Melee Pichu was born, and his flaws have grandfathered over to Ultimate.

The point is to be bad because its funny. For good players to show off and for less serious ones to have fun being silly and cute with.

I can't wait to see Esam to take a tournament set with him in Ultimate. We all know its going to happen at least once.

That's all I do in Smash. :p

I really don't care about trying to play the game seriously...
Eh, same. Fighting "real" battles can be fun and look cool but I'd hate to not being able to play who the hell I want just because they aren't good in serious matches.

I'm sure a good experienced player can make any character in the game look great, that much I agree with~
osby osby I'm curious, who do you think will be the worst character in the game from what you've seen or heard?

*shrugs* People say Bowser Jr.? Pretty much everyone buffed in one way or another, so it's hard to say.
