Alright, here's a timely game:

Sakurai is going to put your most wanted in the game, but insists they must have a counter. What does it look like and - if a more unique counter - how does it work?
She's tied for my most wanted with, like, three other characters, but here's Mipha.

For her counter, instead of attacking the person who hit her, Mipha heals herself by 1/3 of the damage that would've been inflicted on her by the attack.

God DAMNIT... you've done it now...


THE MAN IN GAUZE THE MAN IN GAUZE

HE'S NO SANTA CLAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUS

Along with Eustace's garbage rant near the beginning, that was pretty much the only humor in an episode that was otherwise friggin' horrifying.

Did you take a full course on Noipoi Island?

Because you're speaking my language.
Apparently so, lol.

I've been hearing that some people are gathering up team members for a sort of "fanmade final season". I'm actually really hoping that something comes out of the project.

I remember watching this when I was little once, Family was coming over for dinner and in the other room this show was playing and I remember enjoying what I watched of it I think. Shame I never saw the show since.
I would highly recommend it if you can find it again. It was one of Nick's better shows, even more so when it's compared to most of what the channel is airing today.

I don't get it...

It's apparently alright to bash :ultwiifittrainer::ultrosalina::ultcorrinf::ultpiranha:, because they got in over other characters, despite having fun and unique move sets...

Yet it's considered blasphemy to bash :ultkrool:'s very safe move set, because he's the fan favorite?
>:ultrosalina: is my second favourite Mario character only behind Pauline. In fact, I found it great to have her in Smash 4 and also back in Ultimate.
>:ultpiranha: is a character who I love to pick from time to time, and has inspired me to support the idea of a playable Baby Metroid in Smash.
>:ultwiifittrainer: is a character I love since I practice and go to yoga IRL. I also loved to play Wii Fit back when it released.
>:ultcorrinf: doesn’t seen like a bad character. I don’t play as her so much, but I find it reasonable and fine to love the idea of using her in Smash.

In general, I don’t have any problem at all with the characters you mention and in fact agree that the don’t deserve any bash either. We play any character we like, and nobody should bash a person for doing so with specific picks.

Today I learned to some people around here, the idea of a fighter's planned moveset coincidental lining up with what a fan moveset came up with some time ago is heresy.

I still wanna see a continuation (maybe even a soft reboot?) of this gem some day:


Jenny was probably my favorite cartoon heroine after the original run of the PPGs ended. Such an endearing dorky robot superhero.
Ah actual art direction, I miss the days of my youth. So much thought was put into such minor things.

I really don't get it.

Why would I not want the character I've been requesting to use moves they're actually known to use?

I don’t have a problem when that happens, tbh.
In fact, I find it cool.

Dixie Kong: She puts her hair in front of her and if someone hits it, she grabs them and throws her in the direction of her choosing, like :ultbrawler:'s counter.

Persona 3 Hero: Just High Counter. If someone attacks him during the duration of the move, Orpheus appears and retaliates.

I can't speak for everyone, but I'm sure others feel the same about this, I care more for the character's themselves rather than what they can do.

A character can have an incredibly unique, one of a kind move set, but if I don't like who that character is, their move set means little to me. Meanwhile, someone like Sonic who's move set is incredibly simple is my main because he's my favorite character in all of fiction.

I'm not saying a good move set isn't important, I love the creativity of Piranha Plant (who by the way, is filled with references themselves). I'm also not saying liking a character primarily for their move set is a bad thing either, but for others, they don't want characters because they can bring this gimmick to the table, they want the characters because they like the characters.

Maybe this will make you understand why I said it died
A old video with outdated info, talks about youtubers that "don't make minecraft anymore" like antvenom, meanwhile if you go to his youtube account, he is uploading nothing but Minecraft.
Not only is not dying right now, but a lot of players are coming back because of the new update, of course Minecraft can't be the big ass game it was before, but is already part of the pop culture, something everyone knows, you see a cube game and the first thing you think is "a Minecraft game", it simply can't die, is just that is not as popular as 2014.

Easy for Crash:
The counter would be Aku Aku hurting the opponent with a magical force field or wave.

The Rhythm Heaven character of choice, blocks the attack, then The Wrestler appears

You can do one of two things:
Press b twice to preform a two jab flex that can damage opponents

or Press down b to pose for the fans, which causes a launch effect, but doesn't really deal that much damage, kinda like Cloud's Finishing Touch

I can understand the hate for Corrin because there were plenty of other "unique" characters who could've worked as better DLC options at the time, but the rest receiving any kind of hate is unwarranted.


WFT was never intended to be seen as a serious addition, so I have no idea why people are complaining about her in the first place.

Rosalina is arguably the most unique character we have in Smash. To even think about criticizing her existence on the roster is just ridiculous.

PP is... Well, he's free. Personally, I like him, and while I think he's a better inclusion than some might give him credit for, I don't have much of an argument for why he should've been chosen over someone like Captain Toad or Waluigi.

I really don't get it.

Why would I not want the character I've been requesting to use moves they're actually known to use?
Even though I agree with the side that says K. Rool has a generic moveset, I'd much rather see him depicted with moves that are callbacks to his other video game appearances rather than Sakurai doing whatever the heck he felt like doing with K. Rool.

Okay, let's try someone else...
Sylveon! It could have Stored Power. Basically, it would work like Revenge, but also absorbs energy-based projectiles. They won't fuel Stored Power, though.

Hell, the reasons I main :ultkrool:, :ultridley:, :ultsamus: and :ultdarksamus: are mostly the fact that I love Metroid as a whole, K.Rool meaning a lot for me since he was the first gaming villain I knew besides Bowser and Eggman and the fact that I play better and feel better with them during a match.

Nobody/nothing will stop me from using them, not even nerfs.

Earthworm Jim

His counter is inflating his suit.

By the logic presented, Joker isn't allowed to use his Persona in his Smash moveset.
No offense, but this sounds like something someone would say when they don't want to see said character in Smash.
At least it's still more alive than Banjo Kazooie
Someone's a sucker for punishment...

K. Rool's moveset is pretty much everything I hoped it would be; utilizing equipment from all of his original appearances in the DKC games. He's got the crown that he used as a bomerang in the first game, his almost iconic blunderbuss from DKC2, the boxing gloves he fights with in DK64, and even his propellerpack from DKC3. That's all in addition to him using his strength (as well as his sheer weight and size) for various other attacks.

His moveset is highly faithful, as well as unique, different, and in the hands of a good player, quite obviously effective. Different strokes for different folks and all, but can I ask what's the problem, here? Because I don't see any.

I get it. You don’t want him. But stop making fun of him please.
As long as all of you Banjo supporters, quit making fun of Steve.

The only reason I like to mock Banjo, is because you guys mock Steve to no end.
I have it bad enough, that most of my mains are controversial inclussions.
But having my blocky son being the laughing stock of Smash speculation is just infuriating...

I need to joke around, to keep some sanity in me

Also, let’s not make another Steve vs Banjo war.
I can guarantee that no matter who gets in first, the other will get in Smash too sooner or later.

Both are acceptable picks for Smash, the inclussion of one benefits the other too and many will be happy with any of the two getting added.

I dislike the Minecraft and Banjo hate a lot.

K.Rool's moveset? It's fine, but the only really interesting in it thing that his belly armor, which isn't exactly a direct reference. Not saying everyone should be like Captain Falcon but his specials honestly felt underwhelming in his reveal trailer because it wasn't anything I didn't see dozens of times.

His normals are a lot more fun, since they are not just "remember K.Rool did this?"

Although that would be hard for my most wanted... Zoe doesn't really fight.

Plant Gang Leader getting disrespected...kill them
Rosalina and Female Corrin get disrespected...kill them
Female Wii Fii Trainer hasn’t killed you yet...get killed for thinking about disrespecting her
K Rool getting disrespected...not his finest hour

Everything has been fixed

Maybe this will make you understand why I said it died
I watched it and I still don’t understand. Like. He just keeps saying it’s worse without saying what makes it worse. And the YouTubed thing, yeah that sucks but.... should that really have killed an entire game? Are people that.... I don’t even know what the right word is.

You can't guarantee that, though. They literally share nothing than their owner company.

It's like saying Lloyd Irving is a lock because of PAC-MAN.
