I suspect that a lot of players here have loyally stuck to Samus in Smash 4 in the hope that one day she might receive some decent buffs through a patch. We now have the game's final DLC, and we have quite possibly received our last balance patch along with it. That's not 100% confirmed of course, but let's face it, it's unlikely even if we do get another balance patch that anyone besides Bayonetta and/or Corrin will be significantly adjusted.
For patch after patch, we've stuck with the character. As a community, we've waited, we've persevered with the silly design decisions, we've made videos, we've watch as other characters have been buffed time and time again, hoping the Smash 4 team will one day notice us and give us some help. But at this stage, it seems pretty unlikely that's ever going to happen. I imagine Zelda, Ganondorf and Jiggs mains are sharing in our disappointment right now too.
So I think the question now needs to be asked, are you going to stick with Samus, particularly in competitive play? As the meta develops further, unless a miracle patch comes along it just seems like she's going to slip further and further behind. I know I myself am now contemplating switching away from Samus as my main. It's not something I want to do, given the amount of hours I've sunk into learning this character, but ultimately, it may be a decision I'll need to make at least at a competitive level.
Are you sticking with Samus, or are you done with her?
