Internet is ****. Gwen is a nerd. Can't believe I missed a scythe discussion. Carnaval has been mostly doing nothing so far, why is everything on the other side of town at night?

Anyways, scythes are cool as **** and I legit started watching RWBY because Ruby was my aesthetic. Red and black? Mother****ing scythe? Combat skirt and leggings? I wish I was half as cool as Ruby

You just don't want to accept that scythes are the superior weapon choice.

Thank you person I 100% surely am not and have never heard of before.
Hey, welcome back Shish!!!

Also I agree with you that Ruby looks awesome.

Her outfit, color combination and giant scythe work in harmony perfectly.

FLUDD pushes Ike back, closing the distance and gaining stage control. On walk off stages it may just kill. It works for me pretty well.
I’ve seen an Ike player try to recover with Quick Draw only to have FLUDD continue his momentum and rocket him off the other stage of the stage for a finishing KO

Trust me, when I get my hands on Ultimate, I'm gonna make sure Corrin becomes more notable both online and offline, regardless of how terrible she is...
Shes not terrible like some people say. She's still high mid-tier. She's just not top tier like she was in Sm4sh imo

Corrin is not bad.
Corrin is just mediocre. Corrin has been shafted and not played a lot because of their nerfs, other characters getting buffed, new characters getting revealed, etc.

I presume you're talking about this.

Yeah, that honestly seems like a far better use of FLUDD than pushing him back and resetting to neutral.

I'm just sitting here waiting for K. Rool buffs please, and dreading what 3.0 might do to Inkling.

There was a scythe discussion?

Scythes are dumb. They're not weapons. They're farming tools meant to cut grass on the ground. When they were historically used as weapons, it was by farmers who had nothing better lying around, and they reoriented the blade to use it more like a spear than how it's depicted in fiction. Nearly any other blade weapon would be more effective.

It's only ever used because of its association with the Grim Reaper, with the symbolism and function being forgotten.

I am not doubting King K. Rool buffs, but why does he need buffs?
He's big, has bad frame data, and doesn't really have options in neutral (especially against swordies) and what little tools he had were made slightly worse after 2.0. K. Rool wasn't as great as everyone had made him out to be at launch; TBH he got a lot of hype in the early days because he was a problem for new players and casual players, but more experienced players were easily able to find counterplays against K. Rool. The nerfs were just all in all unwarranted and feel like knee-jerk reactions to salty online comments.

Well golly, you didn't need to kill him. D:

Sheik definitely needs some too. That damage output is an actual pain to look that.
Yeah, I've heard some pretty bad stuff about Sheik. Hopefully she'll be one of the characters that receives the most attention during 3.0, because the she is now does not feel okay at all.

It's still a shame, assuming she was high tier back in 4, and anything below that is just not as good, regardless

Hey... at least I don't need to worry about Bayo quite as much, anymore...

I heard she took a pretty big beating, too

I got lucky when it comes to my mains, since every Metroid rep got a buff and I’m still good with K.Rool.
I didn’t lose anything with the patchs.

His frame data is God awful. And that's coming from someone who primarily plays heavies.

Oh yeah. Definitely. IIRC, Sheik is one of the few characters in this game that I've never lost a match to. She gets completely destroyed by heavies, despite having the ability to juggle them pretty well.

I honestly think she would be a lot better with her Melee aerials. Buff her smash attacks in damage and knockback (forward and down in particular), and everything might meld better with the changes.

I like Scythes as weapons, but even DnD 3.5 treats them as tools that can do very limited damage. Not unlike things like using a Table, Banjo, Broom, etc.

...I'm aware that Kazooie is generally the weapon, yes. :troll:

oh god I ****ing love Dont Thing Twice and I also Long face my fears

But Sancuary tho
Kinda eh on "Face my Fears" 'cause I'm not a big Skrillex guy myself, but "Sanctuary" is the best Kingdoom Hearts song and is one of those things I'd say describes my childhood.

I played so much Kingdom Hearts 2 as a kid.

Sheik is hot garbage. They buffed her in the 2.0.0 patch, but it was not enough.

Also I am waiting for Toad, because all I want is Captain Toad.

Toad Spirit, where are you?

A Scythe is a weapon and a gardening tool, that is epic.
