Does anyone know where to find the patch notes? I think they're usually up on NoJ's site, if not NoA's.

This. It obviously won't be big things like buffs and nerfs, but I'd like to know the obvious changes

  • "Adjustments have also been made to balance the game and make for a more pleasant gaming experience."

Yeah thanks Nintendo, really appreciate the specific details.

Falcon's side smash seems stronger, but he appears otherwise unchanged (based on 3 3-stock 8min vs. CPUs). Thank you, based Sakurai.

Imma test out Lucina next.


EDIT: Stomp comes out faster. Jury's out on the Knee, but it looks to be about the same as before.

Operation "figure out everything that was changed within this patch because Nintendo themselves won't release extensive change logs" commence once again!

Really excited to see what major and subtle developments may come from the changes to these characters. Also, inb4 everyone claims Greninja was nerfed.

For Wii Fit Trainer, damage seems the same, healing as well, but I think that the Header might be bigger?

Edit: I think that it's easier to trap with utilt. Again, not sure, so another source would help.

Lucina appears unchanged, but Doc's recovery is terrible as ever.

EDIT: Gonna do Link, Ness, and Fox before the night's over

So DLC will be part of the CSS itself instead of its own DLC page. Interesting.
Also, look at the Zelda-characters broken up now.

Weird that Mewtwo is just slapped on at the end, instead of put with the Pokemon.

Also lol at how the CSS makes Link and Kirby hop back a line.

EW IT LOOKS SO UNCENTERED. SAKURAI BUFF THE CHARACTER SELECT SCREEN.

I forgot to ask, but where's the Miiverse stage? I don't see it...

Took a small break from my Psych Essay, and it might just be me, but it looks like Villager's slingshot travels more now than usual on both sides

Lloyd rocket seems to travel faster than usual...it might all just be me, don't take my word for it

Is it just me or does Pikachu's thunder start a lot higher now?

edit: actually, I think it might have just been an illusion caused by the stage I was on.

Bowser seems unchanged. Damage is identical.

Downsmash seems to have slightly more knockback but I could be imagining things I don't remember exact percents it killed at since who actually kills with it regularly?

Update: Bowsercide is unfixed and unchanged from functionality yesterday.

Sheik got hit hard. Bair 7% from 11%, KB reduced. F-air KB increased, meaning she can't combo like before. This really sucks.

Samus looks buffed a little, missiles seems to come out faster, d-throw has less knocback and her grapple beam grab has a lot less endlag.

Not sure if this was able to happen with villager before, but his plant in his dash has a chance of bouncing a little bit more before breaking
