Gotta love those sweeping generalizations. Som eof which were plain wrong >_>
And I was pretty much given a backhanded insult as well which is just peachy.


Chandelure looks really weird as a fighter. That one will take a LOOOONG time to get used to. Mewtwo looks cool though

*Word used suggestively.
Everything regrading Bayoenetta is suggestive

My thing is that Bayo is gonna be super hard to master but she'll be pretty fun to play as. Witch Time is mostly a perfect parry type of counter. Her massive issue is gonna be frame data, no decent confirmed kill moves outside of Smash attacks


And Corrin will attract that SO OP PLEASE NERF cloud but will be decent at best and mediocre at worst. My guess is F-Smash has massive range but awful knockback and his giant stun ball will be bad on shield

Naw man, it ended in reality.

Those were just the people who insisted on staying at camp even though a forest fire was raging nearby. :V
Reminds me of that Summer Camp I went to for a whole Week both day and night
The place got overrun by wasps and hornets, hives formed everywhere and the only safe place was in the basement of the main event place
Yet the people running the camp insisted we stayed for the next 6 days
So it was 6 days of literally everyone hiding in a basement from bees

I'm sad that SM4SH DLC is finally ending, but now that we're at the last/penultimate patch for the game, that means that both a tier list meta can seriously form and when mods start really taking off, new patches fixing possible exploits won't be a concern.

Wolf mod, let's go go go! (RIP Wolf DLC)

Um...

I may have missed something...

But what did you do that was rude?
I'm compelled to ask what you did that made you feel so bad.
I've seen you say this before and I genuinely have no idea what is making you think you have made yourself look bad.
I persisted a bit too far debating, made some improper avatar and signature changes, and generally had my mental state degrade into a fine dust. The people I really should be apologizing to are offline, but I just feel I crossed a few too many lines.

Clearly at least three other users agree.

Looking at Chandelure's trailer, what the actual **** is that moveset? I've seen a goddamn lighter have a less wtf worthy moveset
Not what I expected at all, but damn it looks cool.

Chandelure's the Wario Man of Pokken
No one really wanted him and he takes damn full advantage of that fact :4wario2:

You know, I've got another prediction on the opposite end of the Sliding Scale Of Optimism to Cynicism.

Basically, Nintendo is going to do what they were about to with Brawl. They're going to port the game as-is, and then they aren't going to touch the series again until the system AFTER the NX, if they don't just port Smash Wii U AGAIN when the time comes.

We likely won't see another character announcement for another decade.

Does this sound more accurate?

That literally sounds like the biggest salt-lick a person could ever have.

Pretty much my exact thoughts. If they want a strong NX lineup, then adding Smash Bros. will certainly spice things up.

I wonder if I should try and make a Smash Wii U styled model for Wolf at some point. The models of Fox and Falco are already available for reference. Guess I'll think about it in case someone else decides to do it.... :T

Man. If Umbra Clock Tower doesn't end up at LEAST becoming a counter pick I'm going to seriously be questioning the integrity of competitive Smash 4.

Well it does give off an illusion of not being leagal...

Ya know, because of all the things going on in the background?

I remember a lot of people wanted Wario actually...wasn't he one of the most requested for Melee as well?

People didn't want Chandelure because a) he was a background pokemon and we were unsure if that was a deconfirmation or not and b) a very unorthodox body type for a fighting game...

However, it doesn't actually have anything banworthy. No walkoffs, no hazards outside of platforms which are legal after all
Exactly, it's all an illusion...

And by illusion I'm referring to all the background activity.

I was referring to Project M's Wario-Man with the completely silly moveset
But a closer comparison would probably be Rash in KI now that I think about it :drshrug:

Well considering all they do is play on Smashville, I think that's the issue, mostly because Smashville benefits Sheik

Umbra Clock Tower will be legal, counterpick at the least.

I mean for God sakes, Delfino Plaza is legal and that stage is awful competitively in any regard and but somehow Skyloft is banned

When i am standing here, waiting to be able to buy the Knuckle costume.

Delfino is basically banned unanimously.

Well, for the most part. Most tournaments are running the 7-stage ruleset. Some regions are still liberal.

It uses minimize.
Aw, it's so adorable!

I'm not upset that international fates doesn't have skinship because "muh waifus."
It's that it makes actually getting supports with Nohrian characters artificially more difficult IF they don't replace it with something else in My Castle and none of our sources that say it is gone have gone to say that there IS a replacement. So we have to put more effort to learn more about characters because our culture can't handle a little cringe.
According to a recent video from IGN, the benefits are still there, we just don't know how the mini game itself is affected outside of no touching.

The Fine Bros Posted an "Appology" video. Mute for a lesson in body language.

Though on Smash related things... what balance changes do you think the Corrin/Bayo patch will bring?

Wow that voice though...

I don't like it at all.
What's wrong with Tsunderelure? :p

I am honestly not sure where the idea of Chandeure giggling like an anime girl came from. Though I like it for all its weirdness.

So should Corrin/Femui return in future installments of Smash Bros?

Because right now I'm not really feeling it, his game is insanely controversial and several people are harping about it, and his inclusion in Smash Bros.

On won hand he's unique, but on the other it could leave a bad taste in people's mouths. But I want to to know what you think.

It's worse to cut the character because of controversy surrounding their home game and people still not getting over their inclusion.
So yes Corrin should stay because lord knows the **** that would go down if it was revealed Corrin was cut.

Kamui being a mainstay depends on the relevance of Fates within the next several years.

Robin is sorta guaranteed a spot in the roster because of how insanely popular Awakening was.

Fates hasn't gone over extremely well but only time will tell.

Also: I'm playing League for the first time in 6 months. Is this game still meh and less involved than Dota? What do you even do mid/top now?
