Social "Time to Tip the Scales!" - Robin Social Thread

[LIQUID12A]

I'm mighty fine, thanks for asking! But then again, I'm almost always chipper.

Still looking for a good m!Robin Grandmaster pic though.

Cute chibi Robin need not leave.

I should post more here instead of lurk. How are we all?

Bored.

How do you beat roll-spammers as Robin? I've just had the most annoying two minutes so far with this game, where I got a Lucina player to over 100% on his/her last stock, and s/he spent the last two minutes of the match doing literally nothing but rolling around, and I just couldn't figure out what to do to finish him/her off.

Hit them with Thoron? The extended duration it has may outlast their roll, and the fact that they're rolling constantly means you may have time to charge it. Unless of course they stop rolling and try to attack you, but that also means you have a chance to hit them back.

Downsmash. Downsmash is amazing against rolls, as are many Downsmashes in the game.

Also, you can toss a Fire down somewhere to limit direction, or try predicting without it.

Arcfire catches rolls.

The same as @ LIQUID12A , pretty bored. I normal go the the Lucina thread because there is more activity.

I meant the conversation feature.

Thanks for clearing that up Hong. Sorry, I am just really nervous to ask him. I have a feel I might do something stupid and get CAPSed at.

To add to this, down smash is also the best option for shield-poking because it will hit twice.. If someone is shielding a lot, I just hit them with this. Typically charged a bit, but not long enough for them to know what I'm about to do.

 

[Shaymikyu]

I think the Chrom quote isn't in Robin audio because it's not Robin saying it. It might be listed somewhere else as "Other"?
Chrom has at least 3 lines, so it's likely.

His Final Smash lines are still in both Robins' sound test entries.

It used to be the opposite.

Yeah, ture/*sigh*

I'm a complete sucker for Awakening references. Honestly, if Nosferatu's no healing custom special wasn't called Goetia, I probably would even use it.

Never heard of Goetia in Awakening before, where do you get it?

Aversa in Chapter 25, or the Infinite Regalia DLC

Oh, ok thanks

Okay, think I have these roll-spammers down now. Thanks guys!

 

[Mr. Johan]

The multiplayer showdown** you know and love is now on the Wii U console! Take on all comers as Mario, Mega Man, Sonic, and more gaming greats. Or tap an amiibo* to the Wii U GamePad controller to train it up by battling with or against it. You can even pit your amiibo against a friends’ to see how your training methods stack up. Whether you’re creating stages on the GamePad, competing in challenges crafted by Master Hand and Crazy Hand, or outwitting your opponents in a brand new board game mode,
there’s no doubt that the ultimate Smash Bros. game has arrived.

]or outwitting your opponents in a brand new board game mode,

Robin confirmed to win all games.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Robin confirmed to win all games.

He better prepare himself if it's a Mario Party-style board game.

 

[False Sense]

Robin confirmed to win all games.

Unless the opponent is Virion.

 

[shrooby]

Robin confirmed to win all games.

Well, he's got serious competition... Challengers with over a decade of experience...



Worth opponents indeed!

And then comes to ruin the party and everyone cries.
And then Chance Time happens and everyone cries again.

 

[LIQUID12A]

Robin confirmed to win all games.

I dunno. What if Master Balls can be used for whatever reason and someone gets Victini? Robin loses.

 

[Drakonis]

A board game party mode for Smash might be the most ingenius thing I've ever heard.

 

[smashmachine]

Robin confirmed to win all games.

Bowser confirmed to be the REAL winner

[AustarusIV]

Party Mode doesn't sound very interesting for me.

I don't know about you guys, but I hardly knew anyone who liked to play anything other than shooter games, so this whole concept of a game board with fighters sounds unappealing, especially if it's intended to be the Wii U equivalent to Smash Run.

Well, if it is meant to be the "Smash Run equivalent," let's hope is note equivalent in one regard...online play.

What about Communism Bowser Revolution?
Or how about those Star and Coin stealing Boos?

Well, if it is meant to be the "Smash Run equivalent," let's hope is note equivalent in one regard...online play.

Not having an online mode for Smash Run was disappointing. I hope that this new mode is fun and interesting and will allow online play.

I am intrigued by the idea of a Smash board game. I wonder how it will work...

 

[Tuvillo]

I figure the Smash Run Powers also need a replacement, though.

Edit: People actually think Smash Run is a good multiplayer game? It's incredibly uninteractive.

 

[Mr. Johan]

Online Smash Party would be a nightmare.

If it's going to be anything like Mario Party, that would mean the connection has to stay constant for:

Movement on the board
The time it takes for a player to make a choice
Any special events
Picking the Special Smash event, and making sure each player is going to that exact Special Smash
The entire time the Board game is played


There's a reason online Mario Party has never happened. Smash Party would be no different.

 

[Kenith]

I am too. Imagine a Smash Bros. Chess style game where you can use trophies instead of characters!
I could finally play as Ghirahim (sort of)

I would totally pay if this happened for Smash(yeah theres a Mario Chess but it's too "one franchise-y")

 

[Niko Mar]

I really wish more of Robin's customs would be renamed to other tomes...

I can understand in the case of Thunder/Thoron, but the rest of the bunch could've easily taken the Goetia route.

In actuality, I think I'd want this in hopes that the customs would be even more diverse. Such as having a 3 or 1 part up-B, or one that gives you control over the individual bursts.

 

[Shaymikyu]

Yeesh, what's up with SmashBoards these last couple of days?

Anyway, beat my first level 9 computer of the game at last, and the lucky fighter I used was naturally Robin. In non-Robin news, I'm really starting to love Ness now that I've coped with losing my favorite little PSI user. I still like Wii Fit Trainer and Duck Hunt, but I wouldn't consider them my main mains anymore.

EDIT: "My strength... Is yours" is either random or tied to using Robin's final smash. I just got it on Lumiose City, so it has nothing to do with Arena Ferox, but I did use my final smash.

 

[Tuvillo]

Speaking of Arena Ferox- What are the most important reasons for it not being a legal tournament stage? All it has are random transformations that include solid walls, but it's not worse than Pokemon Stadium was in Melee. (Unless it's tournament legal but nobody ever picks it, because I've never seen it played)

Ridley was sceretly confirmed.

It's so weird how inactive this thread is now...

It's hard without speculation. All we really have to guess for the Wii U version is new stages, new modes, new trophies and music, and some people seem to think new characters but I'm still taking that with a grain of salt to be safe. Not much about Robin to speculate unless they make DLC customs or costumes.

Makes sense. Until then,

Young Robin model for DLC.

PLEASE.

 

[Robertman2]

Young Robin model for DLC.

PLEASE.

Not before Ridley!Robin.

 

[Shaymikyu]

Young Robin model for DLC.

PLEASE.

Better yet- Morgan model. Morgan is the young Robin model anyway. Though, I'd love the young Robin so I could play as the one on my third run. Same with the oldest model for my first run (my male Robin is model 1, so he's represented aside from hair color, but the black-haired one is close enough). I still want to see a Grima Robin in the vein of Dark Link (maybe even with different quotes?).

In terms of "never ever happening," I'd love Mage Robin, Dark Flier Robin, and Taguel Morgan (for my most recent run).
