Cool.
Reminds me of when people were requesting Steve to be in Smash. And I guess that's possible now.
In other news, I traveled to a monthly over in Spokane with my crew (Yes, I'm in one) and made 13th place tie, as well as faced off with a few of my states PR'd players :teeth: Progress for certain.

Anywho, what are the haps around these parts?
Good job man!

And 2 things that happened to me since you were last here was that I attended a pretty big tournament and made it out of pools and got 49th.
The other thing that happened was that I got FE7 on the VC.
Edit: Been a long time since I claimed a page.

Gotta love Kid Icarus references in Fire Emblem


Nah my brother loves Young Link. He thinks he is, and I quote, "a ledgebox".

And hates Toon Link, but for different reasons.
Really?! Tell him that HIS AWESOME. Wait, what's a ledgebox?

Might I ask how many entrants, if you know? :p
Enjoy FE7 as well! Canas (the one recruitable dark magic user (besides a late endgame character)) is truly a thing of beauty, make sure to use him :rotfl:

And I will make sure to recruit him.

Looks like the world is against me

:135:
If it makes you feel any better, people seem to think Young Link has a better chance than the character I've been campaigning for. Ah, the struggle of a character that isn't already on people's radars...

So how important are supports in FE7 compared to the other FE games?

supports are AMAZING in the GBA emblems. I highly suggest you look up the affinity system and build great ones. The stat boosts are super noticeable. Also terrain is way way more useful than it ever was in Awakening, make sure to hide in forests a lot to be a jerk

Was I the only one that almost (but not quite!) agreed with @Feelicks tier list? D:

Also saying that "big annoucement" today was disappointing is an understatement. I was pretty mad when I found out tbh.

This is why you always like, gotta be cautious and stuff! I try not to get TOO hype because the disappointment can hit like a truck. I feel you though, it's happened to me in the past.

I somewhat didn't get my hoopes up but at the same time I was expecting something awesome. like CLoud being released.

Yeah I thought your tier list was accurate for the most part. I disagreed with a few placements but other than that I thought it was solid, yo.

Also Rinku リンク Rinku リンク we can maybe play Thursday because I"m off that day~

A stupid weird way of saying "legend". Don't question it, he has weird slang.
Aw jez........

Well, apart from that, he seems like an awesome person! Curious though, why does he like Young Link? And did he vote for him in the Ballot?

Delphox? Well, I'm sorry to here that anyway. It would be nice if all characters could get into smash. that would be great.

I'm disappointed about it too. My brother is obsessed with Minecraft, and one can only take so much before it becomes super annoying.

The announcement earlier was made by an indie developer on Twitter, so it was obvious that it was gonna be about Minecraft. A lot of people like to overhype themselves whenever an announcement regarding Nintendo comes out. Same whenever a maintenance occurs for Sm4sh. People act like every online maintenance is gonna be "INCOMING UPDATE! DLC AND PATCH CONFIRMED!". People should have learned from the last few maintenances not to get too hyped. If there was gonna be an announcement for the Smash broadcast, the main Nintendo Twitter would have said something about it by now.

It's probably because I spend so much time in the CCI thread and I'm big into competitive theory, so I'm intensely critical of tier lists of any kind. Don't take it personally, we're over a year into the game and people still have no idea what half the cast is capable of.

I think it's because he was a big fan of Ocarina of Time way back when and he played Young Link a lot in Melee. No real reason why beyond that, he just really likes the character.

He didn't vote for him, he only voted for one character right before the ballot closed, and that was Lloyd Irving from Tales of Symphonia.

I would've perfered Final Fantasy 7 on Wii U or the remake on the NX...or pics of the next TMNT game, but I guess people will like Minecraft on Wii U.

Also, Marvel is redoing the Civil War storyline with a sequel.

I understand. I personally don't like the CCI thread myself despite loving to discuss competitive theory myself, stuff gets really heated in there at times and some people's attitudes there are just ech.

I only really pop in when a character I'm passionate about us the topic of discussion, and even then I usually try to avoid any prolonged arguments because I feel like I'll say something exceedingly dumb while someone gets all snappy and gets like 20 likes on one post.

Sorry for the rant but it's just how I've really felt.

All of this.

In more positive/happy news, that signature is fantastic. :mariomelee::luigimelee:

That's fair. I'm quite fond of it myself, I find it's a good hub for sharing ideas and opinions, and you do get the occasional nugget of brilliance if you're persistent. Tempers can get raised, but I guess that's to be expected when you have a small group of very dedicated people discussing how to compete in an ever-shifting environment.

It does take a while to get used to it if you're getting involved for the first time: I know I was very timid and barely said anything when I got there, and now I'm a regular contributor. It's just a matter of respecting people's opinions and giving them enough space to be themselves. The vast majority of people there don't intend to be nasty or overly passionate, it's just how they are. Most people will behave well if you just respect them. A little understanding goes a long way.

I suppose I can give the thread another try someday, wouldn't hurt to.

Here here

I think it's because he was a big fan of Ocarina of Time way back when and he played Young Link a lot in Melee. No real reason why beyond that, he just really likes the character.

Well that's fair enough. My reason are very similar to him. Though I think it was Melee more than another that made me really love the character. Which is weird since Brawl was my first Smash game.

Wait, he didn't vote for Young Link?!


Well, at least he voted for a somewhat cool character. Tho I wish it was Young Link. Or Crash.

Yes that is male Kamui's female daughter, Kanna.

She is Orochi, a Spellcaster from Hoshido.

I see. I find Kanna's over-sized neckerchief and big round eyes the most adorable things about him/her. Considering how dangerous they've managed to make the Avatar look, their kid looks harmless.

Fortunately, Delphox has a way in through non-Ballot means that a lot of other characters don't. After all, not many are in a position where we can plausibly believe they were looked at early in development...
