I think we're getting almost one per each series, so I'm happy with the number of villains. The only thing that worries me is if they are subjective to being heavy-weights.I think we need more villains period.

Mewtwo is light-weight (he also is supposed to be fast), so um, yeah. Ridley shouldn't be too heavy at all either, since he is a flying type and is pretty skinny in most portrayals of him.That's just how most villans are it seem like.
Actually, I've been a Ridley supporter since I saw Samus fighting him in the Melee intro. (I had no idea who he was, nor had I ever played a Metroid game before that, but he just looked so badass.) I am an avid supporter, I just never got around to this thread. And, if you want to define support by thread subscriptions, I was a Megaman supporter MONTHS before I was even a Sonic supporter.thank you foe becoming a ridley supoorter..i know of your massive support on sonic so its nice to see that when one is confirmed his/her follower changes for the support of someone else.(i know your still a sonic fan..heck so am i)
Ridley would be about as(rougthly)as just under roys speed and just below ganondorfs attack if not just a bit stronger.
I was thinking Ridley would be a bigger Ike with wings, fire breath, and a tail. (Figuratively speaking, of course.)You mean like Ridley would just slowly fly around and just hit people and they go flying? If so I hope not. He's most likely not going to be like Sonic fast but not Ike slow. He could have some combo ability if that's what you're asking.
Nah, Ridley has a "bird like model" (to call it something ) from what I've seen, so I imagine having a lot of quick snappy attacks with a few slow but powerful ones.I was thinking Ridley would be a bigger Ike with wings, fire breath, and a tail. (Figuratively speaking, of course.)
I imagine him to have massive damage attacks, many kill moves, loads of invincibility frames, and very slow warm-up/cool-down for each of his moves.
I don't know... I doubt that. Sure he'll have a few quick/weak attacks (otherwise, he'd just be unplayable) but I imagine that because he's such a giant with giant extremeties (tail, claws, wings, noggin) that he'll be using them to their full potential all the time.Nah, Ridley has a "bird like model" (to call it something ) from what I've seen, so I imagine having a lot of quick but middle-weak attacks with a few slow powerful ones.
He's a giant in the games so I can understand, but resized to Bowser's height at least and being the skinny dragon that he is I don't imagine him to be the same powerful giant at all.I don't know...

EDIT:
And other than sometimes shooting you with a small flurry of weak mouth blasts, he never really "needles" you in the Metroid games. Every shot from him takes out a fairly significant amount of Samus' health gauge.
Ahhh... good point. Well made. Sometimes I forget that he is that skinny (minus the gargantuan size.)He's a giant in the games so I can understand, but resized to Bowser's height at least and being the skinny dragon that he is I don't imagine him to be the same powerful giant at all.
I still think Ridley wouldn't be too heavy at all, maybe around Link's weight in Melee.Ahhh... good point. Well made. Sometimes I forget that he is that skinny (minus the gargantuan size.)
Ok, so he'd probably:
> attack a bit faster than Bowser with an above average amount of killing moves.
> be hard to combo with due to barely any natural combos that only round off to about 2 or 3 hits, but very effective when successful.
> have some nasty reach with his tail and teeth, but those moves would be slower and stronger.
> be awesome.
Nah, he's gotta be heavier. He's huge (or at least just bigger than most characters) in every appearance he's made. It's like making Dedede a medium character, it just wouldn't make sense.I still think Ridley wouldn't be too heavy at all, maybe around Link's weight in Melee.

EDIT:
Though, it would be nice to see a light/medium villain character. But I just don't see that being Ridley's field.
That clip always bugged me. When did Samus ever have a machine gun?
He looks pretty lightweight to me here.
And why doesn't Ridley have a tail?That clip always bugged me. When did Samus ever have a machine gun?
How many lightweights could come crashing through a wall like that?

I don't think he's lightweight, but he doesn't look Bowser type heavy-weight to me.How many lightweights could come crashing through a wall like that?
I don't know many space stations built with cardboard walls.
Plus, he's still big.
And to this day I still don't know what that thing is on his foot.
I used to think it was a Wario Bucket stuck on his foot, but now it looks like he just has an energy cell clentched in his toes.
Maybe taller, but he still is skinny while Bowser is nothing but a bunch of muscle and the heavyweight. Sakurai did say that Bowser was the heaviest fighter, and how is Ridley supposed to fly if he's so heavy? o3oThey must make Ridley a bit bigger than Bowser in Melee, Bowser isn't known for destroying space stations and breathing plasma....Ridley should keeps his massiveness and coolness....
As for attacks, I trust Sakurai on that, and I know what happens to people when they abuse my trust, so pray for Sakurai...
people who use the "to big" argument make me sickHow many lightweights could come crashing through a wall like that?

He's not arguing against Ridley though.people who use the "to big" argument make me sick
That's a really cool sig!BTW behold my new sig
Who is mog anyway, i've seen him around the boards but never really known and too lazy to google it.BTW behold my new sig
It's a species from the Final Fantasy series if I'm not mistaken.Who is mog anyway, i've seen him around the boards but never really known and too lazy to google it.
Oh that's why I don't know who he is, i've never played Final Fantasy.It's a species from the Final Fantasy series if I'm not mistaken.
I'm unsure about that, but I do know he's part of a species that looks like that.Oh that's why I don't know who he is, i've never played Final Fantasy.
So is he a character or just a generic animal like a metroid?
Ooh! Can't wait~! :3on topic.i will post a ridley moveset soon.
I tried reading the rules and I didn't get it at all. x_xSomeone vote for Ridley in the Eliminator thread. I'm saving my vote for when he really needs it.
yes,the moveset will be up around 5.00Ooh! Can't wait~! :3
Almost... to... 500 pages. x_x
Well I checked it out and it doesn't really explain what he/she/it/potato is.@ wreked if want to know about mog click the sig
on topic.i will post a ridley moveset soon.

I think he means page 500.Which is some random hour in the morning my time.
Well I checked it out and it doesn't really explain what he/she/it/potato is
Its not too complicated. You can only vote for a character once ever. And a character only needs one vote to go to the next round. That's basically it. And only one vote per round. So just go in and say "I vote for Ridley"!I tried reading the rules and I didn't get it at all. x_x
So is he an enemy or a pc?mog=moogle=cute fuzzy bat-wing bear monster.
I was unsure if Mog was the name of the species or of the character. ^_^; I've only played Tactics Advance of Final Fantasy, and I keep hearing that doesn't count. XD;mog=moogle=cute fuzzy bat-wing bear monster.
nope i mean 5 o'clockI think he means page 500.
Alright looking forward to seeing it.nope i mean 5 o'clock
