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.

If I had to cut Fire Emblem characters, I'd cut Roy and make Lucina an alt of Marth because Awakening callback.

We'd get five characters slots, with only Chrom as a Marth (semi-)clone while everyone else is completely unique.

And there'd be so many less complaints.
Why cut Roy? Also making Lucina an alt would completely change the way she plays.

You can stack echoes and people still complain about slots.

So people that don't like Roy can ***** less.

For me it's just the stupid hair, and to a lesser extent the voice actor Cam Clarke's (who is over 60) voice sounds like it's struggling to pitch high, and it's a little nails-on-the-chalkboard feeling to me. But really, the hair is just so stupid-looking.
He could've fool me, he sounds so young as Corrin.

I'd also love the tracer to join smash as dlc. Her over banjo
I can't deny she'd be cool.

But they don’t?
I still see "Lucina should be an alt" etc people.

If we did get a second Final Fantasy character, I'd hedge my bets on Sephiroth or Noctis.

Of course, FF getting another character is unlikely right now with how likely Sora is looking.
I don't think Sora is as likely as some people think he is. Especially with how difficult corporate Disney would be

For what reason would anyone dislike Roy?
I don't get the FE complaints at all. Like, maybe the criticism of too many Fire Emblem characters is valid, but I often see people complain that they're all "the same character". This is entirely false in every way imaginable.


You have to be an idiot to think Roy feels anything like Marth if you've played Smash 4.


Lucina's lack of a tipper changes her playstyle entirely. She goes from a character who has to be good at spacing to someone really aggressive.


You can't even make an argument that Corrin or Robin play anything like anyone else.


Ike is heavy as hell with moves that have different hitboxes, endlag, start up lag, range, functionality, and different knockback properties. Literally what you would use to define a different character

That’s not necessarily a complaint about slots. I more often see that idea thrown around based on deservedness. Which admittedly is a whole different can of worms.

Controversial take at 12 o'clock! Hit the deck!

Eh? You like it, or...?
If a guy wants to rock drag, more power to them. I used to be interested in it, but I'd probably look horrible in it.

Wait, who do you main? Just wanted to know.
Mainly Zelda and Jigglypuff but I secondary a lot of characters, because you know, casual and all.

She'd be in the game one way or another though. Unless people are saying things like "but she didn't deserved an amiibo/her won victory poses etc" it doesn't make much sense.

Oh. Okay. I don't get it, but then again most of the 21st Century doesn't make sense lol

I just restarted kingdom hearts last night. It is a game that starts with existentialism followed by a trippy sequence set to J-Pop with implications for Yaoi shippers and ending with shallow references to Disney. If they House of Mouse greenlit that it is it proof enough that they would NOT be difficult when it comes to Kingdom Hearts.

Generally the complaint comes to Alph and how he’s still just an alt while Lucina is her own thing whenever I see it pop up. Whether you think that’s a valid complaint or not is up to you, but it’s not really about slots.

"Robin and Corrin don't bring any new playstyles to Smash. They're both about what the rest are: Midrange and spacing, juggling with aerials, and spamming Side + B."

Some seriously tried.
Said person was also a troll. A pretty sad one at that.
I'm sure people are cross-dressing for centuries.
Maybe, but still. Not really a fan. But hey, humans can be weirder.

I don't think it's a valid argument. Marth and Olimar fight nothing alike and latter is a lot more mechanically complex.

Though okay, I can get why it's not about slots.
