:4greninja: - Water..
:4dk: - Earth..
:4charizard: - Fire...
:4falco: - Air..

Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation (:4marth:,:4myfriends:,:4robinm:,:4robinf:,:4lucina:) attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements could stop them, but when the world needed him the most, he vanished. One hundred years past, and my brother and I found the new avatar, an Air Bender (:4pit:) named Pit. Although his air bending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone (:4palutena:). But I believe Pit can save the world...

*You're welcome*
Oh!
Of course Pit would be the Avatar!


:4dedede:

Now you've tempted me to draw Lucina as Azula.
Why you do that?

It's one of the most awkward things about a character that is usually graceful and has style. I find it pretty funny.

I don't know why, but I could totally see Anna as Ty Lee. Or maybe Cynthia... Tharja would be Mai for sure, though. And maybe Lon'qu as Zuko?

Actually, only her magic is graceful. I think the director had goofy and awkward-looking sword-play as a deliberate attempt to illustrate the fact Robin is not athletic. Ike and Marth. and Lucina all live by the sword, and it shows.

That Arcfire animation, tho. Hot damn.:004:

Just finished listening to all the victory themes in Smash 4.

This one seems to be the best:


Not sure why. I'm just really feelin' it. :4shulk:

Shulk and Duck Hunt's victory themes are easily my favorite of the new ones:



Though, deciding which one I like more is too difficult.

I was going to mention that :4duckhunt: is really cute. Would be my favourite if they kept it as simple as it started.

I'm still disappointed Villager's wasn't this or this. Not that his actual theme is bad, but still it's a missed opportunity.

EDIT: Duck Hunt's is easily my favorite new one, but Shulk's is also awesome.

On second thought, :4ness: needs to be the avatar. :4dedede:

Edit: Speaking of avatar Ness, I got a new Ness avatar.

I'm holding out for an international release of Xenoblade on New 3DS.

I've been wanting to upgrade to an XL anyway, so this'll be perfect.

I was going to wait on the New 3DS until the inevitable Pokémon game on it, but this would definitely tempt me.

I keep forgetting to list poor Shulk on my list of potential tertiaries/secondaries. He seems like a character I wouldn't be great at but would have a blast using.:4shulk:

If Shulk and Robin are on the same team and you use their Final Smashes, their teammate should join instead.:4robinf:

I'll have to avoid Shulk's Trophy Description... I heard it has spoilers.

That dash attack, though. Seriously.
It's better than you realize, haha. It is most certainly awkward, though. So is their ledge attack. God, it looks hilarious.

I just wish Gaur Plains had this song on it as well:


Crossing my fingers for a less ****ty Xenoblade stage on the Wii U that has this song (and Unfinished Battle) on it.

Okay yes but don't forget

I dunno, I can't find the descriptions right now but I seem to remember them being distinctly non-spoilery.

As far effect goes, it's not bad! :4dedede: Hitbox seems more generous than it would appear.

Going through Xenoblade.

Shulk could be replaced in Smash with Dunban or Fiora and I wouldn't bat an eye.

I actually like Mechanical Rhythm more than You Will Know Our Names, but both are good.

IIRC, you were already spoiled on the Fiora thing, right?

Anyway, personally I think she would be an amazing playable character. So much potential with her mechanical attributes.

I myself was secretly hoping for Dunban, because my Xenoblade run was basically the 'Everybody Loves Dunban' show, since I mained TankDunban.

I did spoil myself for the sake of viewing that character's Smash thread and because I thought I wouldn't get Xenoblade in the near future.

I legitimately regret that decision. :V I guess the only consolation I have now is that that was the only thing I spoiled for myself.

Outstanding. I also love his ledge attack for its awkwardness.

All of Robin's magic attacks show precision and style, while on the contrary, most of Robin's sword attacks look clumsy and impractical (but Levin Sword still hits like a truck)... can you imagine if he could use that dash attack with the Levin Sword?

I'm torn on seeking out Xenoblade spoilers. I doubt I'll get the game anytime soon, but I also don't want to take away the mysteries if and when I do get it. I generally spoil everything anyway for myself, but the things I don't spoil much always feel special to me.
