Hey guys, really really sorry but I broke the Scepter of Darkness. I know, I know, they told me that is the LAST thing I should do, but I was just really stressed out this morning and I accidentally clipped through a sidewalk and tripped and didn’t catch it. Well, time to face facts: Mephiles The Dark will be joining the roster of…uh, waitaminute. We don’t have a name yet.

Submit a title for Sonic Smash Bros!
Our current name, seen at the top of the thread, will be an option by default.

Submit a gameplay style!
Also something we really need. How can we make the platform fighter genre into something that is unmistakably Sonic?

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Air dashing needs to be a thing in this game more than any other platform fighter.

 

[FazDude]

Gotta agree with Wario cubed here; Air dashing is a must. Otherwise, I would aim for a gameplay style like Smash Melee; Fast and frantic. It is a Sonic game, after all.

As for the title, how about Sonic: Champions of Chaos?

 

[Pupp135]

For the title, I‘ll go with Sonic the Fighters: Champions League as a reference to Sonic the Fighters

 

[cashregister9]

Definitely add air dashing and in turn wave dashing and maybe something like universal special cancelling to keep the pace fast.

For the Title

Sonic Battle: Chaos Colisseum

 

[Janx_uwu]

For gameplay, I propose that all fighters have one jump, but all fighters can airdash (works like in NASB, eight directions with downward ones being much faster) multiple times, with more airborne fighters having more airdashes (like for instance, the standard would be two, but Knuckles has three and Tails might have four or five). So getting knocked offstage means you have to recover using around 2 airdashes (two airdashes straight up give you as much height as your average double jump in Smash), accompanied by your recovery move if you have one.

For a title, I submit Supersonic Scuffle.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Title: Sonic: The Champions
A combination of StF's two names, with a colon to make it grammatically correct.

 

[YoshiandToad]

Gameplay tweaks:
In Stamina matches(presuming this is a thing in the game) when characters have their HP knocked down to 5 HP, they'll spew out five rings.

As long as they keep collecting these rings after being hit they can continue fighting, allowing for Stamina matches to last a lot longer. The rings can be collected by other players too however, adding additional HP to them.

 

[Janx_uwu]

So, we've all agreed that our game needs air dashing. YoshiandToad's submission is exclusive to Stamina mode and it's a great idea, so it will be added automatically if there are no objections. The gameplay will be fast as everyone's agreed on, and it will probably take inspiration from Melee as FazDude said. I'll open a strawpoll to decide between the two major submissions for gameplay - mine (one jump, multiple airdashes) and cashregister's (universal special cancelling), but there will be an option for both.

Which gameplay tweak should Sonic Smash have? | StrawPoll

You may vote for one or two, with your first getting two points and second getting one point. Alt and music jobs coming after this job.

 

[FazDude]

1. Sonic Battle: Chaos Colisseum
2. Sonic the Fighters: Champions League

 

[Janx_uwu]

1. Sonic: The Champions

Abstain on second vote.

1. Sonic: The Champions
2. Sonic: Champions of Chaos

 

[cashregister9]

1. Sonic: The Champions
2. Sonic Battle: Chaos Colisseum

 

[YoshiandToad]

1. Sonic: The Champions
2. Sonic the Fighters: Champions League

I also like SuperSonic Scuffle, but admittedly would have preferred simply "Sonic Scuffle" due to it's similarity to "Sonic Shuffle".

 

[Janx_uwu]

Sonic: The Champions will be the name of our game! Thanks to Wario Wario Wario for the submission.
And with three votes, our game will have both mine and cashregister9's gameplay tweaks - one jump, multiple airdashes, special cancelling - as well as the Stamina tweak submitted by YoshiandToad and general agreement on speedy, Melee like gameplay brought up by other users of the thread like FazDude. Keep our gameplay tweaks in mind when making movesets in the future.

As stated before, alt and music jobs are up next, so stay tuned for those shortly.

Happy Thursday, guys! Sorry for the wait on the new jobs, power/internet went out last night.

Submit a fighter from the 90's

Please submit a newcomer who made their debut appearance anytime before 2000. Non-game characters are not allowed for this job. Modern versions of classic characters (like the Chaotix or its members) are eligible.


Submit a moveset for Shadow

Please submit at least 4 special moves for the Ultimate Life Form, though other information such as a general character overview or additional moves are appreciated. Do not include his Final Smash, taunts, or extra animations for now.
Minor update, the front page has been edited to include credits for submissions! Sorry that they weren't there before.

 

[FazDude]

90's Fighter - Fang the Sniper / Nack the Weasel (resubmission)
Because you can't keep a good half-jerboa-half-wolf down...

Fighter Submission: Fang the Sniper / Nack the Weasel

Having a gunslinger in the game is a fun idea to me, and Fang's the perfect character for the job IMO. Plus, he's probably the best representative for the "classic" era of Sonic (excluding characters who would make their way over to the modern games with redesigns).

Shadow Moveset
Shadow is a rushdown character similar to Sonic; However, Shadow trades in some of Sonic's approaching options and speed for having generally stronger attacks, including a more reliable ranged option.

• Neutral Special: Chaos Spear
  • Shadow fires a bolt of Chaos energy straight forward. It's essentially Fox's laser from Smash.
• Side Special: Light-Speed Dash
  • After a brief charge, Shadow dashes forwards at a blinding speed. It's essentially the Fox Illusion from Smash.
• Up Special: Chaos Burst
  • Shadow quickly vanishes from the battlefield, only to reappear in any given direction with a burst of Chaos energy.
• Down Special: Chaos Control
  • Wouldn't be a Shadow moveset without it! This version of the iconic ability is pretty much Bayonetta's Witch Time, with Shadow emitting a pulse of Chaos energy to freeze any attackers in time for a moment. Most importantly, though, you can recreate this scene if Silver's in the match.

By the way, did we ever decide what moveset Sonic would use? If so, I think we should add it and Whisper's moveset to the front.

 

[Janx_uwu]

For Sonic's moveset, Pupp's SSF2 inspired set won with only two people voting. I'll add in it and Whisper's once I post this.
90's Fighter: Metal Sonic

A robot built by Dr. Eggman in an effort to give Sonic a taste of his own speed and power, Metal is one of the most beloved characters in the series. His determination to become the one, true Sonic is not unfounded, seeing as he was only created as a copy of something greater than himself. Metal Sonic could very well be a Sonic clone, but I feel he would shine brightest in Champions as his own thing. He would make great use of his claws, chest exhaust, electrical abilities, and speed.

 

[YoshiandToad]

90s Fighter: Chaos 0



Yes, that's right, Sonic Adventure was released in 1998. I can't believe it's that old either.

Anyway Chaos is quite frankly a brilliantly designed character.
With insane reach, the potential to utilise his watery flexible body in unique ways and maybe even briefly reach his more powerful forms, Chaos has a lot of interesting potential that we could get creative with. He'd likely fight mostly in his weakest form, Chaos 0, as it's the form people are most familiar with...and is the most bipedal version available too.

 

[Deleted member]

Mighty the Armadillo
Once fated to obscurity, this guy had a new lease on life due to his apperance in Sonic Maina +. He'd be a brawler, making use of punches and that heavy shell.

 

[Otoad64]

Big the Cat

what do I even have to say? It's Big the Cat.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Vector

Fang and Big have already been submitted so I'll go with my third choice. He would swing his tail, curl into a ring, bite, and perhaps even carry around foes with ring tether. Perhaps we could make the other Chaotix members part of his moveset - like Espio following in camoflague to appear for the occasional attack, or Charmy being part of his recovery.

 

[DragonRobotKing26]

Ray the Flying Squirrel

Ray is a yellow flying squirrel,his first appearence is on SegaSonic The Hedgehog and he returns on Sonic Mania,same on Mighty. as a fighter,Ray would be a Lightweight fighter that is strong in the air and useful for combos

 

[Janx_uwu]

Front page now has links to content! Also, alt and music voting will close, fighter submissions will close, fighter voting will start, and a discussion period will open, all tomorrow morning. I'll get the post(s) ready for that time.

 

[Pupp135]

I’ll go with Espio, who was playable in Sonic the Fighters and debuted in Knuckles Chaotix. Also, he has appeared in other games like Sonic Heroes.

 

[evanwoo10]

Witchcart

Witchcart (AKA Wendy Naugus in Archie Comics) was the main antagonist in Tails’ Skypatrol (1995) on the Game Gear. In the game, she takes over an entire island in her rail cart, causing Tails to stand up and fight the hag without Sonic. Witchcart could drive around the stage in her cart, while throwing small bombs and energy blasts. She could even turn fighters into crystals if she wanted. Witchcart also has three henchmen with their own vehicles (Hocke-Wulf, Bearenger, and Carrottia) and her own army of robots at her disposal.
