Super Smash Bros 4 (Wii U/3DS) Topic

[~automatic]

I'm not all that into the deep competitive smash game to be perfectly honest. I just use who I want when I want pretty much [other then the example I put above]. Although I was thinking for Smash 4 to get into it a little bit this time.

Once your views on characters and the game start getting skewed by a lot of the ideas and things thrown around by people whose game play experience is greatly different from yours that's when the game and characters start feeling weird and your perception changes for no good reason. As long as you have fun doing your own thing you're set But yeah, don't give too much stock to tiers and stuff as they only apply to a vaccuum niche of people who play Smash.

Playing competitively is a lot of fun but it can get frustrating at times when you don't quite get what to do against certain people. You should definitely stake a stab at it when the game is released!

Hello! Just passing here to say hi since I'm new. I'm looking forward to be able to participate in future discussions! Thanks for reading.
Oh, and how do I change my profile picture?

Was Meta Knight really that hard of a character to fight against? I played against many people online who showed that they main'ed Meta Knight, but I never really saw him as over powered. I found him fairly easy to fight, sure his ability to recover is annoying, but I manged to look over it. I might sound like a douche saying that but it's the truth.

Alright thanks for the encouragement! I will definitely keep that in mind

Welcome!

Click on your username at the top of the page and it should list your options. You'll see one called Avatar there. It can be changed by uploading an image you saved to your computer.

You must be either a really good player, or really lucky not to see a pro or troll Meta Knight.

Welcome! I'd also tell you the 2nd part but Phantom beat me to it.

He literally has no match up where he's at a disadvantage competively. He basically counters 85% of the cast easily. So in short: yes.

I use DDD and Fox in Barlw. I'm kind of a glutton for punishment with my wonky match-up spread. Also, Automatic is officially my competitive Brawl waifu.

As for playing Smash 4 competitively? I'm gonna wait and see. I may start traveling again for Smash 4 tourneys during the game's infancy; one last hurrah before I start really getting my life together. I feel like I owe it to myself, considering how important this game (and its community) is to me.

Well, I have met some real A-holes with him, but I quickly adjusted to their playing style considering how often I fight him. Idk, maybe I haven't seen the true trollers.

Okay, back to being a spectator.

I do know Yoshi can grab release him all day, but of course that is pretty much only useful on FD and Smash ville where there are little to no platforms.

What about Bridge of Eldin?

What about Bridge of Eldin?

That stage works too, until the Moblin(?), blows a whole in the floor.

Isn't it King Bulbin? I think he has a trophy.

In other immortal words of GNR:

Ya get nothin' for nothin' if that's what you do
Turn around *****, I got a use for you
Besides, you ain't got nothin' better to do and I'm bored

Also, you guys sure play a lot of characters. Just Diddy Kong and Wario for me.

 

[MexM]

Thanks for the advice Phantom. And also thanks for the welcoming.

Man I should have used that. I love Guns N Roses. Haha

Like TheFirstPoppyBro said, it's King Bulbin, riding Lord Bulbo.

No problem. I always want to welcome and help out newcomers!

 

[Moon Monkey]

Your probably right. I just call the typical pig baddies in LoZ Moblins.
I do remember facing him quite a bit in TP so i guess he would have a name of that title.

But...but...you joined in February of this year...... =D

I like how Metaknight's specials aid in recovery. Just make them specific.

Mach Tornado: Has the most movement control. However, only does a little damage with little stun. Mostly used to move around the stage.

Shuttle Loop: Low Knockback. Initial hit only gives him space, cannot kill. Glide mode should be less flexible. Used as an escape move with great horizontal movement.

Drill: Mostly used for damage. Less safe on a miss via more lag.

Teleport: Fix glitch. Give this move some KO potential if it hits.

Give him less hit stun on his attacks, more frames.

I'm not THAT new. lol

EDIT: For once I got the top post.

There originally were going to be actual Moblins in TP but they got cut from it.
From what was shown in footage, their AI was the same as in Wind Waker.

I find it funny still I joined this site randomly 5 years ago and it took me 5 years to remember I had it and to post.

As a Meta Knight player, what makes him strong is his priority over other attacks. This means that Meta Knight can easily cancel other character's attacks with his own. Brawl also has pretty terrible hit stuns. This is why Meta Knight shines. Almost every time you hit him, you're going to get hit right back. Meta Knight also has a very low start up lag on his attacks. This can easily be seen when using a DSmash or his FAir....they come out REALLY quick. He has great range in his attacks, probably a little less than Marth's.

Hehe, I been here for a while, but I rarely ever posted. The only times I would post were to ask questions about tournament locations around my area.

Kind of what happened to me. I made a few posts during the Brawl days, disappeared, then just was like ''Hmm. New game is coming. Maybe I should come back."

Same here I recently started posting back in December. Hopefully, I'll stick around if the community doesn't reject this installment like they did brawl

I'm glad to know i'm not the only one then! Hahaha

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I don't think I'll be taking any long breaks from the boards any time soon.

You might want to pack your bags ahead of time, because you're not going to stay long.

 

[Moon Monkey]

I actually have a feeling this installment will be widely accepted for the most part by this community.

But I'm prepared to go back to the slums a.k.a AiB if things go to the ****ter again

 

[Diddy Kong]

U so corny Habanero

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I'll stay, but I might not post many messages.
