None of the above.



To you all, if you were in Smash Bros, what kind of a style you'd have in your moves or attacks? Note that you can't tell what moves you'll use, but rather, what playstyle or archetype you'd take.

I can't use Villager, Slingshots are too weird for me to handle. :v

And Lloid Rockets.

And Tree.

And Smashes.

And everything else.

Not sorry.

I have a clean shave atm though.

Also, continuing this whole thing doesn't really do much of anything but make things worse.

Just stop please.
If you are talking about what I think you are, just ignore it at this point. Feeding the troll will just make him come back more.

As a side note, if you saw me "like" that one post, my hand slipped going to like Kotor's, so know it was an accident.

How about no. The beast has been unleashed, and I am sure as hell going to take advantage of watching everyone one of you squirm. There is nothing you can do about it you worthless little shrimp. Hope you like hell, because I ain't leaving this place until every single one of you people leave these god forsaken boards.

I was watching ADHD playing a custom Villager today at a tournament today. Practically every match went to time or close to it.:tired:

Villager's just one of those characters that I try and use at a basic level and I can't even accomplish that.

It's the same deal with Diddy, Sheik, and Ness. And Meta Knight, Snake, and Olimar in Brawl.

Maybe I just have a top-tier curse? :V

(Points at profile) You also play Sonic. Isn't he also considered top-tier?

I've used Villager for fun.
I don't know how to use him effectively and his play style isn't for me. He was probably my least played character when the Smash 3DS demo first came out.
Still, more power to the people who can use him. Villagers can be scary if played properly. (especially with Counter Timber).

My Sonic play is more or less based around his style in Brawl, so I'm not really using Sm4sh Sonic as optimally as I should be.

But even so, you have me there. And now that I think of it, I had an ok DDD in Brawl as well, so I guess I do have an exception in each case, lol.

You're not the only one with a top tier curse. I literally cannot play Diddy or Sheik to save my life, but here I am playing low tier Zelda in every Smash game. The only character I've ever played who is considered good is ZSS in Brawl, but she wasn't even top.

I was just talking about how awesome my face is since I just shaved it yesterday.

So smooth.

I'm hilariously bad with Villager; the event involving all of those coins while using him was a nightmare for me. :nervous:

From my experience, Villager is all about barraging the opponents with projectiles and traps to the point where their mobility is severely limited, preventing them from doing much anything. He/She accomplishes this primarily through the use of his rockets, slingshots, dash attack, and Counter Timber (if it's used), with a few other attacks and grabs thrown in to mix things up. Villager is great at covering horizontal space and limiting opponents options; he/she starts to falter if the opponent breaks through the wall of attacks and exploits his/her light weight, vulnerable recovery, and more limited vertical options.

Counter Timber makes me flip tables.

SO.

ANNOYING.

Villager's tilts might just be my favorite in the game though, something about them just makes them so satisfying to connect with.

Just remember to keep reporting anyone being a dickenMcnugget.

And above all else, don't let assholes try to demean you from using Robin. Remember that the problem is with them, and not yourselves.


EDIT: Here I was doing a sort of inspirational reminder and I realized I had changed my avatar for a mafia game. Surprise French appearance is suprising.

The wall Villager can create becomes even harder if you throw exploding balloons to the mix. It's also important to secure the lead as early possible so you force the approach, which the Villager isn't the best at. Outzoning the Villager may also be a viable option. Just saw the campiest custom Villager outzoned. By pikachu no less.

Edit: Maybe for us Robins Speed thunder is preferable in this matchup?

No, it's with them. They chose the path of atrocity and there is no turning back.

Only top tier character I've ever been any good with before Smash4 is Marth, and N64 Falcon to a lesser extent. Can't play Melee spacies to save my life. I've been doing fairly well with ZSS and Sheik this time around though, but still can't touch any of the other "top" characters like Diddy or Villager.

I like how the ignore function works here on Smashboards. Other places but in this big obnoxious thing about how there's this ignored post by this poor innocent (HAH!) user that you're pretending doesn't exist. Not here. Smashboards erases it from existence. So it's so much easier to forget that someone is being ignored, and then they stay their for an eternity.

Who the hell cares? All it does is get me away from this abomination of a video game community.
You...

You could just leave...

No one is forcing you to berate these users.

If you dislike the community then don't be a part of it. It's that simple.

If you hate it so much then just don't come here. Better to not interact at all than to interact negatively.


Being here clearly isn't good for you. I encourage you to leave! Wouldn't want you to get all in a tizzy over a game forum.

I am well aware of the various functions associated with other uses such as that, don't worry.

I honestly don't care enough to use the ignore button for people, but that's just my way of doing things.

Now where was I?

Oh yeah,


:4link: is my boy.

It's a shame more people don't try to pick him up, 'cause he can do more than just Bomb/Boomerang/Arrow.
