This is why I hope Smash 4 has really good balance. That way, we can see some huge variety in tournaments.

The tiers lists would be very complicated in that case, but that's doesn't mean I'm against that.

I hope the game is as balanced as Sakurai can get it.
In an ideal world tiers wouldn't exist because every character is equally as viable XD I'm sure there'll be SOME stinkers in SSB4 but hopefully nothing Ganondorf bad and nothing Meta Knight OP :p

Yoshi for 64 in a right world. For Melee, Ice Climbers. Keywords: In a right world. :chuckle:

John told me in a Skype call during the EVO stream earlier today that he had a dream about Olimar's confirmation, as well as Pichu. He then mentioned that the Pichu Bros. were his secret most wanted Pokemon newcomer. :chuckle:

Likewise. Not that there aren't other Melee veterans I'm more interested in. Like Roy, Ganondorf, Dr. Mario, and Pichu. Not that last one has much of a chance, of course. :p
I just wanna know that the ICs aren't causing the 3DS problems anymore.

Pichu was mostly a joke character, I'm guessing Smash 4 won't have a joke or it's otherwise Miss Fit, but others would consider her more of a WTF? character. (PoppyBro told me he thought of her a WTF? before)

Melee wise, I'd like for Mewtwo to make a comeback more than anyone else. (Mr. Game and Watch would be nice too, and everyone already knows Ganondorf needs an overhaul)

Pretty sure Game & Watch is returning, if that drawing from July 2012 was anything to go by.

The VGBC stream has ended, and I think the srkevo3 one has too.

Well, a joke character used to refer to characters like Pichu. Nowadays, this is progressively referring to characters that are simply comedic in some fashion like Rocket Raccoon and Phoenix Wright. Ironically, Wright is bottom tier, but that's more on Marvel being broken than anything else.

Energy. Ball. Ganondorf.
I don't see the appeal in this or why it should be reflective without the need of reflector attacks. Seriously, what is Ganondorf's strategy if he has this projectile?

I believe both streams have ended for the night.

I'm hoping G&W is returning, then I can have a battle between 3 unexpected characters. (as long as R.O.B. returns as well)
Wasn't expecting them to last 12 hours.

I hope R.O.B comes back too. I don't see why people hate him other than for "stealing another character's slot".
I was hoping to see R.O.B in a future Smash game, and I thought his chances increased after his surprise appearance in Mario Kart DS.

I can't speak for others, but I am a firm believer that the energy ball should NOT be reflectable without a reflector. I imagined it to be like an Aura Sphere that hones onto opponents; essentially Samus's missile dressed up as Aura Sphere, without the aura gimmick of course.
And while I can't think of a strategy in the spot, I'm sure it will be viable (is there any projectile that's NOT worth using aside from the flame breath and water attacks and maybe razor leaf)

I wasn't even aware of R.O.B.'s existance until Brawl, and I'm glad he was added.

He may not have been very successful as an add on for the NES, but he's a had a good run in Nintendo history, that's for sure.

I think it's sad how many people think R.O.B. or any character is the only reason why Sakurai didn't add characters they would want more.

You should also be able to aim the attack.

I also want Link's Bow to be aimable as well.

I think Ganondorf's strategy with the energy ball is obvious; he plays tennis with his opponent, with both characters attacking it back and forth repeatedly. Ganondorf could then punish his opponent while they're preoccupied with returning the energy ball. Alternatively, he can send it at an offstage opponent, forcing them to either recover early or use an aerial to avoid being knocked too far back, which potentially results in them falling too far below the edge to grab it if their timing is poor.

Also, I find it kind of funny that Yoshi wasn't the first revealed after the trailer. I'm thinking some sort of major change to him has been made...

(Imagine if he became Yarn Yoshi. But that's just too troll haha)
After Olimar's reveal it would not surprise me if Yoshi is being held off until Yoshi's New Island is released. I fully expect him to be shown off with a new level from that game.

Luigi is the only real surprise considering this is the year of Luigi. Would not surprise me if he is revealed around Aug.
