Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - August 13th

Honestly I despise Meta Knight everywhere except in the anime. So with that in mind, yes I do wish to kill myself.

What about the kirby games?

 

[RascalTheCharizard]

hey at least pm showed that he can be nerfed, and also the glide mechanic is now gone, and balance does seem to have a very heavy this time. So maybe he wont be broken. Maybe

I argue he's still one of the best characters in PM. His nerfs weren't very significant in the long run and the buffs he gained (particularly his new back aerial and down aerial) give him potential in ways that even Brawl didn't provide him with.

I don't think he'll be broken, I'm just incredibly upset that he's in the game lol. Flamebaiting, I know.

What about the kirby games?

Yes even those.

 

[EmptySky00]

He's all you never wanted.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Just like with every other character, Meta Knight looks more glorious than ever in HD...

 

[LIQUID12A]

AWW HELL YEAH IM HYPED

SHOW MORE CHARS

 

[EdgeTheLucas]

Guys, now that Shuttle Loop works differently he can no longer jump to near the bottom of the edge of Final Destination and use Shuttle Loop to both KO his opponent and land safely back onstage.

That was one of the most common tactics and it's been taken away now. Sakurai is indirectly showing a nerf, which is good news (but I hope they don't overnerf him to oblivion )

 

[Petrichor]

IS it just me, or did Metaknigh also just confirm axew as a Pokeball pokemon?

It's possible, but Hydreigon and Garchomp are also visible in that screenshot, and by the looks of things it take place in the Kalos Pokemon League. If I had to guess I'd say that Pokemon of the Elite 4's types will appear in their respective chamber as either decoration or hazards. That's still pretty cool.

 

[Imber]

I hope they do to meta knight what they did to kirby in melee.

well can't argue that i guess.

 

[MysteryRevengerson]

What's that stage with all the Dragon-types on it? Is it Spear Pillar?

 

[Petrichor]

Kalos Pokemon League's Dragon chamber. You can see the stone dragon head in the background as well as a stained glass window.

Ok I can understand Why you don't like super smash bros meta knight
but why don't you like kirby games Meta knight?

 

[Chilex]

Everyone's so salty LMAO

 

[B.A.M.]

I can feel the Little Mac Mains working the Salt Mines already............................................

Super Smash Bros. for WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. "Looks like there was an impostor in the earlier posts, so I introduced him to my sword!" ...I'll leave it up to your imagination if he really said that or not. The veteran hero, Meta Knight, returns to battle!! We didn't forget the Battleship Halberd either!!"

He also included a second picture saying "Meta Knight's Up Special Move, Shuttle Loop, changed quite a bit in this game. The glide is gone, and the attack slashes opponents twice while spinning in a large loop. This has turned into a highly technical and effective move."

SSS Tier confirmed.

 

[im just peachy]

AIGHT IF THOSE GAUNTLETS AREN'T THE COOLEST THING I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS

hello..

 

[xxEliteAlicexx]

Did anyone else notice on the official site, there are now 45 character slots?

 

[pupNapoleon]

WHY WAS GAME AND WATCH NOT ANNOUNCED!

 

[SupremeSuperiorStick]

He can't plank Uairs or Glide anymore. I have a feeling he'll be pretty balanced this time. Just give his Tornado a bit more landing-lag and nerf his priority a slight bit and we'll be fine

 

[Skrlx]

Will his Final Smash be a giant tornado where the player has to mash B in order to rack up percent before dealing the finishing blow?

 

[StarshipGroove]

The SSS tier is back! Press 1 if you feel sorry for non-Meta Knight players!

Meta Knight da bess
Meta Knight da bess

Meta Knight da bess

Let's hope he's been nerfed a bit. Nice gauntlets too.

 

[Petrichor]

Did anyone else notice on the official site, there are now 45 character slots?

I wouldn't read too much into it at this stage. They just add an entire row once the old one runs out.

 

[Deleted member]

Did anybody really doubt that he would return? He deserves to be in this game. The fact that he was OP in Brawl was the fault of the game designers, not the fault of the character.

I'm interested to see what other changes he received, and I'm sure there are many.

 

[Haydossy]

ermagerd Ridley Wings character fusion confirmed Ridley confirmed

 

[xxEliteAlicexx]

I wouldn't read too much into it at this stage. They just add an entire row once the old one runs out.

I know they do that, I'm just pointing out we're at 45 now and there's so many vets left.

 

[kaydon_esker]

Looks like some more information about Classic mode snuck into the site along with Metaknight

http://www.smashbros.com/en-uk/3ds/gamemode/entry3.html

 

[MM720]

Who knows? Maybe they'll actually balance him this time? :D

Still, Sakurai surprised us again. Still waiting for Jigglypuff and Falco tho :3

 

[Primeval Weasil]

lol I wouldn't be surprised if MK got the SSBM Kirby treatment.

 

[Chris Sifniotis]

Great! My 'go to' guy is back.
And yea, I wanna give a harder Meta a go. I need to get better at some stage, may as well nudge me along with a less invincible Meta Knight.

 

[Arthreeteseven]

Ugh, not another Blue Haired Sword Wielder.


Just Kidding, The True Dark Night Returns!

 

[ChickenWing13]

I was hoping for duel wielding swords just to see smashboards go up in flames.

 

[LoneWolfRanger]

Nice! Liked him in brawl, but that was just because he was an easy win...

 

[Masonomace]

Took a look at all his images on the smashbros site. HOLY HOTNESS his visual attack animations of his slash hit-boxes & hit-stun / attacks. Such detail & looks really good. Bravo Sakurai. . .#biased

 

[EgeDal]

IS it just me, or did Metaknigh also just confirm axew as a Pokeball pokemon?

why?

 

[Malion]

Miis replace polygons this time... And no target test.

 

[mario123007]

He's finally back!!!!! This adds up to 38 Characters!

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Probably to get rid of some people's doubts because monday

 

[Malion]

I'm guessing the 3ds version will collect miis via spot pass to the multi man battles so you can punch passersby in the face.

 

[U-Throw]

Cool! As much as I love Meta Knight, I really want him to be nerfed because he was WAAAAY to overpowered in Brawl.

On a side note, the classic mode info is good. I like the way the map looks cool and the new features look really awesome. The only thing I'm not hyped about is the fact that Miis are opponents in Multi-Man Melee. I think MMM is always a chance for the Devs to come up with really cool-looking enemies unique to smash. But I like their shirts. I hope that they are customizable options for your Mii.

 

[Iron Angel]

Congrats Metaknight fans! This is exciting! Glad to have a character reveal in a PotD.

Okay, Sakurai, it's my turn, where's Falco? lol
