So, now that we've established that Robin has a buff, what are all the applications of this buff? Off the top of my head, I can think of a couple:

1.) Robin's recovery is superior to what it was before, as the direction you're facing when recovering no longer determines whether you live or die.

2.) As a result of this, Robin can now be a bit more aggressive with off-stage fighting without having to worry as much about being able to recover.

Any other thoughts?

The real question is who will be the unfortunate/lucky tactician to be drawn next? :4robinf:

Or should I say, Tacticians?:4robinf::4robinm: *wink wink hint hint*
The logical choices, of course, are Unknown Hero and Gracidea Shaymin.

Has anybody noticed that Robin's Nosferatu traps the opponent for an extremely shorter time than before? I think it's lost some of its versatility post update... also curious on how Elwind can 'grab backwards'. Another glitch?

Actually, it was against a Lvl 9 Dark Pit CPU. Maybe the computer got a little smarter...
High level CPUs get out of grab moves extremely quickly. If you're not used to it, it would probably come as a surprise.

I have Prismacolor black colored(shade really) pencils. I plan on getting a decent set of them in multiple actual colors soon. On the question though, no I haven't seen it~
Nice! They're too expensive for me, and my moneys are reserved for video games, haha.
Aw man, my pencil shall be lost in oblivion.

You are indeed a masterful tactician. Now that's strategy.​

Business as usual, what's good brah?
Not much; just need to play robin more than I have been. I keep getting frustrated when I miss grabbing my expired tomes and use the wrong kind of sword courtesy of 3ds controls. Wii U version in 3 days though!

I still mess up sometimes the Smash aerials and attack with the bronze sword but with C-stick that is going to end.

Also my graduation is this Friday so I guess i'm going to get Smash in the morning and wait all the day to play it, my school have perfect timings when something smash related is going to happen.

...So, does anyone have any idea what @ FlareHabanero FlareHabanero was talking about when he said Robin was hit with a "random nerf hammer?" That comment kind of came out of nowhere, and as of now there doesn't appear to be anything substantial to back it up.

A nerf hammer made out of the same stuff they make those fake Golden Hammers with, obviously.

Triple jump exploit being patched isn't a nerf at all.

god forbid people play as anyone that's not high tier or competitive viable in their fighting games :086:
*waves a Pichu flag* I WILL USE YOU EVEN IF YOU CONSTANTLY DAMAGE YOURSELF!
Fair enough. To each they're own of course and I understand why you would feel that way. ^_^



Indeed! Such a way of playing is unheard of in fighting games. Why play as characters you enjoy from they're respective franchises when you can only play a select few characters that are considered high tier or competitively viable? I mean, that sounds like SO much fun! :rolleyes:



Let me join you! :awesome:





You know, even though I never played that as Mewtwo that much in Melee, I'm still VERY happy he's back, especially for those who really wanted him to strike back, and I know there are many who did. The more, the merrier I say. :)
Ditto. Mewtwo wasn't one of my most wanted, but I certainly welcome him back. Helps that catching him in X has made him grow on me more again. I love how dignified he is in Amie.
Did the patch add a Kermit skin for Robin? :drshrug:
Still no Morgan alt 0/10 worst SSB ever.

I wish I had the time and skills for this.

I'm game for it.:seuss: Though I'd suggest drawing one/all three of my Tacticians with their default look without their prank victim hats on.


For reference-
Green-haired=initial run
Male=male run
Pigtails=Yarne run
I don't think I'd want Walhart to be my anti-virus. I'd like to keep the rest of my computer, thanks.

@The Soulless One
But he'd Conquer them all!

Though, I'd think someone with good defenses would be the best Anti Virus. Or Morgan, since s/he destroys everything.

Nice new title.

Too late, the one I drew has a hat.:awesome:
(Ok no not really)
Now to inconspicuously save this picture as a reference. Is your male avatar pimping with the ladies? If he is, I have a funny picture in mind. :p

Refreshes page and sees Sanic
Well this is a pleasant surprise.

I thought Robin had a reduction of power, since I swore when I experimented the attacks seem slightly weaker. I don't use Robin a lot, so I'm not 100% reliable.

Do as you please.:) I think we came to the conclusion that he indeed was pimping the ladies. In fact, for the pranked icon, I was try to find a pimp hat for him and failed to get one with a good transparent background, so Stud Muffin it was.

Time to check on the Robin boar-

But I'm really happy to hear that Robin can now grab the ledge back with Elwind, now when I SD it will only be my fault and I won't have to blame Robin :p

If I said no, I'd be lying.
So here's the closet/first thing I could find in my library of images which describes my experience with this thread
