Smash Update is out

[Tobi_Whatever]

Not sure if this is the place to rant about it, but when they said the Mii costumes would be $.75, I thought they were referring to the whole pack and not each individual one. Whelp there goes the little interest I had in it. $6? No thanks.

No DLC skin pack ever would cost less than a dollar.
Not even Nintendos.

 

[LunarWingCloud]

It's kess than a dollar uf hou only buy for 1 version. :3

[Robfire]

protoman was really all i cared about anyway :V

what i don't understand is why they made protoman a mii costume instead of... i dunno... a reskin for his almost identically-designed robot brother? i still love that they added a protoman outfit, but it doesn't feel genuine

 

[WwwWario]

Does Megaman's Metal Blade go further now? Feels like it.

 

[VivaReverie]

Good timing SmashBoards

In other news, Mewtwo get, holy my he is fun
No attack looks changed, his fair is sweeeeet

EDIT FOR OTHER STUFF: His d-tilt is stupid fast, he has special fall after up-B, and his dair has a sour spot (Of course)

 

[Storm Eagle]

I might be wrong, but I think DK's Back Air has less landing lag!

Your signature worked perfectly with that post. xD

 

[Chibi-Chan]

Samus's Forward tilt's power became weird. It now has a sweet spot on the toes that does 8%, then the foot does 7% while near the knee it does 5% then with the thigh you got 6%. I'm not good with explanations but that's how i see it.

You sure you aren't just angling it different?

 

[LthePanda]

So anybody notice any changes to lucina? I have been playing her for a bit now but I don't want any placebo for breakfast.

 

[Wavebird]

Man you can't to get a tilt that sucks bad for megaman players considering you could to fast up srk

at least+ is cool

 

[Robfire]

I used battlefield

battlefield has slightly larger blast zones in general than FD. when testing, you should just use normal FD. the littlest blast zone differences can be pretty huge

 

[Yellowkirbyguy]

You sure you aren't just angling it different?

Yes i'm sure of it. Angling it gives an extra 1% (So 5% becomes 6 yadda yadda.) Oh i should of mentioned that this was for the 3DS. in training mode against Mario.

 

[VivaReverie]

There is a strong lack of Mewtwo talk here, didn't anybody else get their code?

 

[exnecross]

The balance patch is the bigger concern. Mewtwo is cool or whatever, but that is not the main point of interest in this patch.

 

[Wavebird]

I think a lot of people haven't received their codes

ohh and I hear some can't redeem

 

[Phoenon]

Someone else test out Marth's Shield Breaker range, I don't remember it being THIS disjointed before, the tipper hitbox is crazy on it.

 

[Iceweasel]

@ LthePanda I haven't noticed any. I killed someone with her side smash at 94%, but I had a lot of rage and it was at the ledge.

@ Robfire I'm pretty sure his dthrow was nerfed. It seemed to work on more of the cast before the patch. It's not like it's that significant a change anyways, Link still destroys. This just reduces our chances of an early gimp with his godly edgeguarding ability.

I saw a few comments regarding Falcon's Knee and stomp having less windup - Stomp, yes. You can SHFF it and it'll come out now. Knee, I don't know. It looks faster, but counting the frames reveals subtle/no changes. Fatality comes to my local, I'll ask him next time I see him.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Anyone notice if Palutena has gotten faster or not? There certainly seems to be less end lag in her moves but it might be just in my head. Her repeated crouch to tea-bag certainly seems smoother.

 

[Wavebird]

did lucina always had that red flash on her shield breaker

 

[SSBBDaisy]

nothing good for my characters like usual. This game pisses me off anyways.

 

[Yellowkirbyguy]

(3ds) Well. Samus's jab combo only true combos at like, a very specific % (Like 50%) Also has a KB sweetspot? If they're right next to you and you jab at like, 80% your 2nd jab wont hit (Against Mario) And it also seems like Charge Shot has been nerfed KB wise i mean, Mario's in the middle of the Final Destination at 101% and CS can't KO.

 

[Akira213]

So anybody notice any changes to lucina? I have been playing her for a bit now but I don't want any placebo for breakfast.

There don't appear to have been any changes to Marth/Lucina. Part of me thinks that Marth's side-b is faster now, but I think I'm imagining things.

 

[The_Thumbs]

Now, I could be wrong, but I feel like Kirby's D-air is a stronger spike. That's as much as I can say for sure. All my characters feel pretty much the same. G'dorf might be faster as well, but I'm not the most analytical player, so that observation could be off too.

 

[Robfire]

Does Megaman's Metal Blade go further now? Feels like it.

nope. it's the same. tested it on both versions, both go a little bit more than half of FD

kirby's spike was always strong. i'm pretty sure it's the same

 

[kamus_aran]

Still haven't got mewtwo download code

Agreed, it has always been pretty great. Just seemed to be performing better. Perhaps just luck (CPU's are no comparison to human players after all).

 

[OFY]

Idk if this is the right place to post this, but someone apparently looked into the files of the 3ds patch. Apparently Roy and Ryu from Street Fighter are listed where the character information is at.

[Hyruleslink]

If my Mewtwo code doesn't arrive soon, I am going to go into psyshock.

I'd take things like this with a shaker's worth of salt right now.

 

[Alondite]

Has Yoshi's Dair always linked so well? There seem to be a lot of multi-hit moves that link a lot better than they did before.

 

[Wavebird]

The only ryu I think would fit in is the one from puzzle fighter
but i'll take anything also this could help promote sf5 LOL

 

[Tobi_Whatever]

Just got my codes.
I'm still at work though getting teased hardcore.

 

[MightyJake]

Got some Mewtwo gameplay. If anyone is interested.

[Mr. Potatobadger]

Marth got nerfed????

Marth's downthrow has more ending lag on it now. You cannot true combo with Marth from downthrow, even at 0.

This is ridiculous, why in the world would they give Marth of all people a nerf?? Especially on his downthrow, which is bad to begin with.

I'm pretty pissed.

I have yet to test Lucina.

EDIT: Lucina's suffered the same fate. Why in the name of **** would they need to touch Marth and Lucina unless it's a buff?

 

[Phoenon]

Marth got nerfed????

Untrue, I can easily do down throw back/up air, at least on Marth himself.

 

[Mr. Potatobadger]

Untrue, I can easily do down throw back/up air, at least on Marth himself.

Well, yea, you can still do it, but there's enough ending lag on it now where you cannot do a true combo with down throw. The opponent will always be able to escape, even at 0.

Before the patch, you could do a true combo with Marth/Lucina from Downthrow to up air/back air from 0 to about 8 percent.

 

[VivaReverie]

Looking at the Mewtwo trophy and then looking at the Mewtwo trophy is super weird

 

[Sir_Zedd]

Robins jumps are clearly higher than usual which must be helpful for robin mains

Ness's dthrow seems to prop people up a bit higher aswell but the backthrow nerf isnt too bad, just keep it fresh. Pk fire might be reacting differently also but that might be placebo

On 3ds if that matters

 

[dahuterschuter]

Anyone notice if:

-DK got any buffs?
-They killed that damn windbox on the ending of Shiek's warp?
-Luma got nerfed in any major way?

Can't check myself until tonight.

 

[Tino]

I haven't gotten the Mewtwo download codes yet. Plus I'm too tired to update the two games right now so I'll check them out when I wake up this afternoon. Perhaps by then, I'll have those codes waiting for me on my email.

And on a side note, I'm hearing Diddy Kong's so-called "Hoo-Hah" combo has been nerfed.

 

[Alondite]

Pac-Man's dash attack has almost zero lag. Has it always been like that?
