Don't make stuff up. You have no source for this. I can tell.
7th in Japan too
My guess is that he'll be able to do the Smash 64 laser if you hold it slightly longer.
I've got no guess, but I'm hoping for some kind of tactical Grenade Launcher.
agreed makes no sense
i strongly disargee. they did not balance him out well in brawl. see below.
agreed. if fox is one of the lightest characters in the game, fox doesn't really have little tricks too him like diddy kong laying his nanas, olimar and his pikmin, snake and his weapons, fox is a straight up fighter. only has one projectile attack and everything is attacks he has to get close with. he should have more damage% to his attacks, more knockback with his smash attacks or have more than just one good way to finish off people at a decent %. in brawl he really only had his UpSmash as a reliable finishing move, UpAir was nerfed and hard to land, BackAir was great when it connected but honestly to me wasnt strong enough considering how hard it is to land effectively, SideSmash and DownSmash werent reliable. in 64, fox had his speed and smash attacks, which might not have done the most damage but had good knockback. thats what fox's signature was too me. i felt like they kept it right in melee but in brawl they didnt. they had characters with alot of gimmicks (ddk, snake, olimar, wario) or characters that already had way too many pros (MK) have better smash attacks and ways of killing than fox. fox just really had UpSmash which was way too predictable and easily exploited
Interesting.
More options is generally a better thing in fighters.
Still doesn't really tell me why this is a bad thing.
He's still gated by his weight, fallspeed and potentially short range when close up.
^ This. I don't think they'll have changed too much. I feel like some of his moves still feel slow in brawl to say the least.
I believe Toon Link using Jab 1 avoided the Reflector hitbubble (which is actually pretty small). Even though it's not a perfect comparison (as the animations are different), here's a similar happening from Brawl;
If Toon Link just stood idle...
Something else I found out while testing this is that Reflector doesn't hit on frame 1. There's a frame of initiation and another 1-2? frames of the Reflector animation.
I also feel pretty stupid because I also found out you have free reign over turning Fox around while in Reflector... I play Fox often and never knew that...
