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.

dawg you literally had the update right there do you just have spoilerphobia


Nice English.

And also nice not having the update despite the guy before you already having it. What took you much longer? Mocking me? :p
Still didn't change the fact that Amazee Dayzees aren't the spirits being talked about when I made the comparison with Tap-Tap.

And it doesn't change the fact that my point being that they're both equally annoying.

I never was talking about Amazee Dayzees ya big gnome, I didn't mention them by name, you just assumed :p

Yo Will Will did you really just use grammar as a sarcastic remark to Zinith?

NGL that's pretty low tier bait. Like, that's the number #1 internet argument trope.

I've been trying to do this, and I'm glad to see that my expectation was right - Dan Hibiki is the weakest spirit in the game.

I find it a little weird that Master Hand and Crazy Hand don't have the same stats, like how Galeem and his counterpart do.
I'm kinda surprised Master Hand is stronger. I always assumed Crazy Hand would be because he's well, you know, crazy...

Then that's kinda different. Crazee Dayzees are still kinda weak in Paper Mario but they are annoying due to that sing ability and that fact that you have to backtrack through Chapter 4 running into them. Doesn't equate to power though.

And in the Yoshi games (which the Spirit is based on) they're even weaker

Having less inhibitions about using your power =/= more powerful.

Master Hand has far more control of his power as well as how much he holds back.

Oh no, whatever will I do? :crying: I'm shaking, I'm crying rn because you just exposed me like salt on a slug.

Power doesn't come in strength alone.

I think you're blowing the whole "power" thing out of proportion.
It's probably tied to popularity as well.

I mean Lyn's one of the ****tiest units in her game, and she gets to be top 20 in power with a RIDICULOUS 50% crit-rate.
That aint canon, bruv.

I’m pretty sure the spirit’s power are a blend of actual power + real world “renown” / fame as a video game character.

True, I always just felt Crazy Hand was more intimidating due to his unpredictable nature and therefore posed more of a threat.

But I guess canonically Master Hand should be stronger because he's clearly the one in charge.

Aw snap now I've done it. The comment was too spicy!

Knew I should have put in less jalapeno pepper...

I would like to take a moment to direct you to the fact that Medusa is stronger than Hades, according to the spirit power levels.
Medusa's obviously been hitting the gym.
Oh, and Empress Bulblax is stronger than both Andross and Mother Brain in their respective final forms.
Which is really strange because both Andross and Mother Brain are way bigger than Empress Bulblax.

I guess the Pint-Sized Powerhouse trope is in effect.

The unpredictable ones tend to be the most dangerous, yes.
Not necessarily the most powerful, but definitely the most dangerous regardless.

Segata Sanshiro would come back to face you for that.
I’ve been wondering... does Segata work as a Smash candidate regardless?

He originated in a commercial (I think), but it was video game related, and then he made game appearances like Project X Zone.

That’s not TOO far off from ROB....is it?

Guys, I know this is only tangentially related but...

Bayonetta is officially canon in the SMT-universe.

I am beyond confused.

At the very least I have him in mind for that Sonic fighting game idea I had, I think he’d be fun to play.

Segata would likely get the shaft as a Mii Costume if I'm being real because, y'know, he's a real real human I guess. Miis kinda do that bit already.
