Unpopular Smash 4 Opinions v2.0 - Read the OP before posting!

[BandanaWaddleDee]

Can I just bring up Zero Suit Samus?

Bayonetta is almost fully covered up

My point still stands.

I was totally onboard until you said Lana
butyeahitotallyagreeotherwise...

Lana won't happen. It just won't.

 

[Substitution]

I would have preferred it if Proto Man was a Mega Man alt. It just doesn't feel the same as a Mii costume.

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

I'm tired of "character hype" and just want that Tournament Mode and Miiverse stage. I'd prefer new DLC modes and stages to new characters at this point. Would rather have new ways to play with the over 50 fighters we have now.

 

[Clint Jaguar]

I don't care about Mewtwo.

 

[ErenJager]

I want an adventure mode, even if it was simply like melee's.
Also I want classic mode to feel more like you're entering the world of various characters like fighting Lik & Sheik on a LoZ stage. Instead of x amont of random character on x amount of random stages.
also break the targets and board the platforms plox.

 

[MapleBeasts]

I have a few:
The Geno popularity before Sm4sh was insane, and quite frankly, he would have made a terrible addition to the roster.
Yoshi is the strongest character in the game since the Diddy nerfs.
Megaman is a top 10 fighter in the game.

 

[Yong Dekonk]

I Think Lucas is a cop out for a character. His move set basically amounts to Ness custom options (if he retains his brawl move set) and I hate Ness because his fair and back throw are OP.

 

[Dastardly Ridleylash]

Lucas is still in Brawl and P:M also keeps him in; so we didn't need Lucas now. I mean, Mewtwo is understandable, since hype and all. But Lucas is just...eh.

Would have much rather had Ridley over Lucas, really.

Mewtwo is trash.

Mewtwo is trash.

But that's a fact.
I kid, I kid.

[LoveGame]

I don't care who wins the fighter vote.

Lol

What if it's Shrek

If Ryu does actually join the roster as DLC, then I would prefer if his reveal trailer has his theme from Marvel vs. Capcom, which is an extended arrangement of the Street Fighter II title theme, playing in the background over his usual theme song, which also originated from SFII. Either would be hype, though.

 

[Kero the Invincible]

I don't see K.Rool as a playable character.

People say he has huge potential for a moveset, but that's only stems from his various personas throughout the series.

It would just look weird seeing King K.Rool using a pirate's blunderbuss, or Kaptain K.Rool throwing his hat at someone, or Baron K.Roolenstein launching boxing gloves at people.

/personal opinion

 

[Rexcalibr]

Tournaments and Smash Competitive play where they use stages with plat forms makes no sense to me. Neither do banning certain stages. Shouldn't tournaments be played with the omega versions of stages like 1vs1 For Glory?

Omega stages/FD heavily favor projectile-using characters. Those who need good approach options fare much better on stages like Battlefield and Fountain of Dreams. Omega stages only is one of the worst rules a tournament could have.

Whether or not stages have platforms have nothing to do with their tournament legality for the most parts. Stages that move or have random hazards are the ones that are justifiably banned.

 

[WorstSSBPlayerInTheWorld]

Fire emblem isn't overrepresented

 

[Ze Diglett]

This one's gonna be a doozy...
*Deep breath*

Shulk is top tier.
Now, let me take a moment to explain. I don't literally mean Shulk is the greatest in the game, but he's certainly among them if you ask me. All of his attacks have crazy range and his aerials and smashes are massively disjointed (especially Fair and Nair), making them safer than most other characters, along with borderline OP offstage/gimp game in conjunction with Jump. Which brings me to the Monado Arts. As if his range wasn't enough of threat, they make Shulk hands down the most adaptable character in the entire game, in any matchup. He can very quickly overwhelm the entire cast using Speed and Jump, and he consistently survives to the upper 100%'s using Shield, along with building % and KOing crazy easily with Buster and Smash respectively. Name another playable character in the entire series with a kit that versatile, and do it all well at that. It's usually at this point that someone will make the claim that Shulk's bad because "his moves are all laggy!!!!!!!!!!" But quite frankly, if he didn't have that lag on his disjoints, he'd probably be as broken as Brawl MK. Imagine if his Down-Smash didn't have that full second of endlag on it. That'd be like if DDD's F-smash hit on Frame 2. It's just balance. (Most of his moves aren't even that laggy from my experience.) And before you tell me that I'm "inexperienced with the matchup", one of my friends, with whom I play quite frequently, mains Shulk. I think I'm qualified to speak on this topic at the very least. People haven't seen this character's potential properly demonstrated (see these guys play and you'll see what I mean) and it's absolutely laughable how people are still saying this character is merely "okay" or even "bad." While he may not have the world's greatest frame data or be an "MLG WOMBO COMBO" character like some of the current top tiers are, it's my firm belief that Shulk will rapidly rise up in the rankings as he sees more representation in general, and not just for popularity's sake.

Smash 4 has Skill Ceiling.
Luigi's voice in Smash 64 and Melee was lazy, but I find it to be quite funny like that!
Melee's character models are the ugliest in the whole series.
Perfect Pivoting is underrated.
F-Zero is the only series with no "fair" treatment.

 

[Enderwoman]

The Ice Climbers suck. The gimmick they revolve around is totally busted and they are the most worthless franchise with a playable character in Smash. Ice Climber is by far the most shallow thing, arguably even more so than ROB and Duck Hunt.

 

[PrettyIvyPearls22]

Unpopular opinion:
i dont understand why people wants inkling. splatoon wasnt released before SSB4 and its not released yet and people doesnt even know everything behind this character story its like asking for the girl from the new fire emblem trailer and we have no idea who is she. they are way more deserving character before inkling you can just request inkling for SSB5 but not SSB4 its too early to have inkling same goes to henry or any character from a game from a game that was released after SSB4. i am happy that japan doesnt care about inkling as much as people here do

I know this is for unpopular opinions, but I'd like to point out Fire Emblem to you. Splatoon would be in a similar situation if the Inklings get confirmed. When Melee came out noone in heck knew who Marth and Roy were. If they weren't in Smash Fire Emblem wouldn't have even came to the west in the first place. The Inkling actually does have a good amount of demands in Japan than you think if you looked at some of the polls. Besides I'm positive that Nintendo and Sakuari would want to put them in anyway as to represent for a new IP.

I know this is the opinions thread but this is just factually wrong, lol. Have you ever even played Lucas or seen him beyond his specials?

Also, git gud.

They are way more deserving characters before thinking of a character from a game that has released after SSB4. give a chance to another charcter that has been waiting since melee to be added it's too early to ask for inkling we should request them in SSB5 but not SSB4

 

[GunGunW]

Don't know if it's unpopular but I wouldn't care for Ryu too much and Lucas and Roy I can take or leave but I would prefer other characters over them.

 

[Rocket Raccoon]

I'd rather have Ryu than Ridley

Can we please just stop talking about Ridley

 

[Oasis Dealer]

There is barely any "Sakurai bias" in this game, specifically Kid Icarus. The only one that kinda makes sense is Kirby not getting any stages after Kirby 64 or much music from other games. Kid Icarus though? Barely bias if you ask me. With characters, we have Pit and Palutana, the main characters. Then came Dark Pit, an alt. that was then planned to be a clone. So character choice reasonable. Items are equal to Mario and Zelda? Just shows how much the items work in a Smash setting. Stages? 1 new stage each version, Which makes sense for 3DS, while the Wii U gets a stage and a returning stage from Brawl. Enemys in Smash Run? Will admit, bit weird it has the most enemys, but this game came off the wake of Uprising, so importing enemys was easy (Though, a few can be taken out.) Trophys? All Smash run enemys get trophies, then the side characters of Uprising are included. Thats only the 3DS version, the Wii U version only has fighters, assists, and items. And...that's it. Seriously, where is this idea that he went overboard with the franchise? It's like Fire Emblem charaters. 5 playable characters? Not like the series has at least more than 10 games with changing protagonist's to select from. I don't even play these franchise's games and yet I still think it's ridiculous people have this mindset that Sakurai gives them bias.

/Rant over

 

[DipperPines18]

I do Not want Ryu, and if Roy is Is in the game, change his Moveset.
Lucas is a Take or leave.
Pokemon is not overrepresented
I don't Think King K Rool should be in the game, Dixie would be 10x better
Ganondorf, while a clone, is okay I guess.

But seriously, No Ryu. We have too many Humanoids as it is. And he wouldn't fit in.

Villager is the cutest character in the game =]

I don't like the rage mechanic

The Mario Kart 8 Villagers are cuter. Wish we had those instead of the gross Smash ones. Except Purple Shirt Villager. He's the only cool one.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

People complain too much.

Blue Villager is so chill though.

 

[Dastardly Ridleylash]

And he wouldn't fit in.

>says ryu won't fit in
>has a toy robot as a main


It's also not like Ryu is to 2D fighting games what Mario is to platformers, either. (/sarcasm)
Nobody complains about Snake "not fitting in" anymore, so Ryu can't be criticized under the same fallacy if people say that Snake "needs to come back", but Ryu "doesn't fit with Smash".

OT: Dark Pit is a cop-out, and should have either had modified properties to his entire moveset or just have been custom moves for Pit. I can think of another idea for a clone/semi-clone that would have pleased more people (looking at you, Roy), so Dark Pit just seems to be a case of throwing a antagonist in just because he's recent.

 

[Mobes]

Unpopular opinion: Boy do I not want in Smash 4. is so similar that I have no idea why people would want Roy outside some Melee nostalgia. Infact, I don't want or either.
I guess we'd get more DLC characters if they were conceived veterans already, but outside and I don't want none.

Look, I get it, I'm going to get real salty when they announce Roy, like they probably are going to, but still :'(

I'm expecting Roy to be pretty Luigified, though; especially since we already have the prerequisite Marth clone.

He'll have the same moveset, but he'll probably be in a similar situation to that of Mewtwo.

 

[GunGunW]

I voted for Chris Redfield on the poll.

 

[BluePikmin11]

People should give other non-iconic third-party characters a chance to be explored, people in character discussion forum complain about other third parties like it's the bane of existence and I really hate that kind of mindset.
