Who do you guys think with be nerfed within smash 5?
My picks for nerfs are

Bayonetta
Cloud
Mario
ZSS

I think Diddy will be fine, he's not too broken unlike Bayonetta. I have no reason behind these as of right now but if you guys do or have any nerfs let me know below.

More nerfs for :ultbayonetta: and some for :ultsnake: (don’t know why, but I feel like he’d get nerfed over something)

We’ve already seen Cloud nerfed since his Limit Break form has an expiration. I think that’s a fair change but we’ll see if he needs anything more.

Then of course there’s Bayo. There’s already talk of nerfing her more after MkLeo’s performance at the invitational. I don’t want her to be completely destroyed, just not the clear best character in the game a la smash 4.

I wonder who will be this game's broken fighter after all these nerfs.

Based on the demo, the only characters who seem clearly and specifically worse from Smash 4 are Bayonetta and Cloud.

Sonic lost an important spammy defensive tool, but otherwise seems to got a variety of buffs. Various adjustments seem to make Fox worse, but it's premature to call even without future changes considered. Corrin got a small-but-clear nerf to side-b and is otherwise unchanged.

All of these adjustments can be discussed holistically in the overall changes thread, and Smash 4 character performance can be discussed in the appropriate place as well. I'm going to lock this topic for being too speculative.

I played Smash Ultimate at CEO and played about 5 games of Bowser, my main. And to be honest I'm not a fan of his changes, no more combo throws, and he felt kind of slower. He's pretty much back to being Smash 4 Bowser before the throw changes. Regardless of it, I'm always loyal to the king, so I'll be picking him up again anyway.
