Oh you.
I know I'm not telekinetic (though I wish I was). Also Hong, can I have some tips for Robin game play, because I've been playing a lot of Lv 9 CPUs, becasue not matter how hard I practice, Robin still feels very award and slow to me and I can quiet get him down and I really want to main him. Though CPU's are annoying to verse (stupid perfect shield ****We are connected by the mind.
)
After him getting one whole YEAR solely dedicated to the guy, you'd think he'd be more fine to take "blows" because he knows he's loved that way.At least ten pictures were of Luigi being hurt or getting hurt. Poor man, he can't get a break.
So why am I, the post-July-Chrom-fan, still tipping the scales?
Welcome aboard! I actually did the same thing regarding a new run in Awakening - perhaps to dwell deeper to it's world now that I got out most of it's mechanics. Hope you'll enjoy our humble time here.
I find it slightly ironic that someone with a Chrom avatar is being friendly to the Robin fanbase. But whatever, not all fans are obnoxious. Welcome.
I think you'll find that the Robin community is one of the best and most engaging fanbases around. Welcome.
Welcome!
FALCON PUNCH
actually there is a bug with using SpotPass characters like those on your StreetPass team. basically if your team includes one or more SpotPass einherjar characters (SpotPass side story characters like Walhart and Emmeryn, and other players' avatars, are fine), the receiving player receives a generic "Outrealm Order" team, instead of your actual team. I don't believe it's ever been fixed.
There are those who like both and aren't bitter about one getting in over the other. Like myself, for example. Though as a fighter, Robin is much more interesting, but still. Both are likable characters, I think.
I'm fond of both characters and actually like Chrom more as a character....but I'd be lying if I didn't say Chrom getting in over Robin would have been a very bitter pill to swallow.
I suppose you have a point, there. Robin is the first FE character in Smash that I truly wanted to use. I just couldn't be bothered to use a basic swordsman, but on the flip side, I never thought of including Robin as a newcomer to Smash, even though I loved using Robin in Awakening. But now that we do have Robin, it's pretty much pointless to talk about what could've been. I'm too busy using him to care at this point. And besides, Lucina is right there, and she's exactly like Chrom(combat-wise, anyway), except she's female. She's as close to Chrom as we're going to get.
Equally likable characters, yes. Equally likable fanbases, shoot me.
Yeah, that's true. I still don't see the issue between the two, though.
Was this ever a consideration? Because I don't think Chrom would've fought like Ike.
-Chrom deemed shoo in due to Gematsu
Chrom isn't a slow, bulky mercenary with a claymore. Chrom is a fast, frail swordsman king with Marth's weapon.
Oh, it was a popular idea back in the day, since many people believed Ike was a likely cut due to not being "relevant," and that they could just give his move set to his "inevitable" replacement, Chrom. Obviously, that idea was scrapped once Ike was confirmed.
Oh, I know is a very aggressive and fast swords man but I swear I kept hear people thinking that Chrom would replace Ike, either as a unique character or with some of Ike's moves
Chrom is supposed to be well-balanced, but yeah. He's not using a heavy sword, it's more of a long sword. Marth's variant looks more like a rapier.
*quoting mechanics suck so I'm responding to what you quoted from me and not this that's actually quoted. Going in reverse from the last point.*
This post made me laugh for some reason.
You clearly have the ideal mindset for handling "leaks."
Yep, even if the reality stings me a little. I miss using Wolf.
I like Chrom as well, just as a character, not a fighter.
I was indifferent to him being a character. But yeah, a blue-haired swordsman is precisely what he is, and because he uses Falchion, how could he have been much different from Marth? It's because of that fact I wonder why Chrom fans became Chrom fans in the first place when Robin was right there with so much more to offer. Well, they have Lucina, and as far as wanting Chrom goes, that's the next best thing.
That's as much as we can hope for with Chrom.
All those Chrom fans must love you.
What he needs is basically a haircut and an alternate sword, and he's just one step below having his name changed to "Chrom" in the CSS, much like Olimar and Alph.>Game Announced

Irony.
I love ASOIAF. Does that make me a horrible person?
Well, I think there are a number of reasons for that. For one, there are people who are genuine fans of the character; they want Chrom in Smash because he's a favorite of theirs. Though judging by the aftermath of Robin's reveal, it seems like the number of those people is fairly limited. I believe the majority of Chrom supporters were people who thought he was inevitable, and that any other character like Robin (especially Robin considering he/she's a customizable character that isn't on the box art) was basically just wishful thinking. After all, why support something that you "know" is never going to happen?
