You may buff two characters and nerf two others. Who do you choose?

You can buff characters that have already been buffed and nerf those who already got nerfed. None of this has to be "fair", and do not take anything said personally. (Why would anyone even do that?)


Buff: Samus. I'd give her moves more killing power (or at least return the killing power her projectiles had). I'd also give her flamethrower a bit more power, and I'd make her throws inflict a bit more damage.

Buff: Ganondorf. I'd give him a bit more speed and he definitely needs more range. His up-tilt is a signature move, but I personally hate it. It should cause a miniature earthquake and it should be a tiny, tiny bit faster. His Up B should be as powerful as it was in Melee, his aerials should get less downtime, and if I really wanted to buff him, I'd rather have his Ganoncide be a move that automatically throws the opponent down, without killing Ganon, too.

Nerf: Dedede. Give him a sorry bair, allow him to throw ONLY Waddle Dees and Doos, and reduce the raw power of his mallet attacks. Reduce him to two midair jumps. Yes, I am a hater.

Nerf: Snake. Make his tilts and jab much weaker, and reduce the damage his explosives do.

Buff: Pikachu. Give Dair a wider shock wave when used near the ground, and have Skull Bash the potential to give an electric shock to opponet.

Also buff: Charizard. Longer Flamethrower (length-wise), replace Rock Smash with Dragon Claw, and make the glide look not so ********.

Nerf: King Dedede. Remove chain grab, and stop throwing the spiky-things whose name escapes me.

Also nerf: Jigglypuff Snake.
Please. D=

I'd use both buffs on Captain Falcon.
The end result: He is faster than Sonic, has a projectile like Falco's laser, can combo with his aerials, his up-b has super armor frames the entire time, his knee KOs on a medium-sized stage at 40%, his Falcon Punch is an instant kill, his dthrow is a chain throw on all characters which combos into knee, he doesn't normally die until upwards of 250%, his down-b and side-b also act as reflectors, and his smashes can not be out-prioritized. Oh, and if you try to ban him from tournaments, he jumps out of the TV and breaks your Wii.

I'd nerf Sonic and Lucas.

I'd buff Mario and Diddy because I think they're okay characters, and Mario needs his Tornado recovery back, and Diddy needs more knockback power on his fair.
Nerf goes to Marth and Lucas because I hated Marth in Melee and the Random Button made me hate Lucas because it selected him all the time.

I don't feel like thinking what else I should buff/nerf them with. It's just what I would do.

Buff: Meta Knight: Infinite jumps, more knockback, less lag for the ending of the specials. Hey, we said it didn't have to be fair. :)

Buff: Ice Climbers: Make them less seperable, that's all I ask. Well, more range to Blizzard and more damage/hits for Squall Hammer would be nice, too. Oh, and make the Ice Blocks shrink slower and do more damage.

Nerf: Wario: I don't care what, just make him utterly and completely sucky. I hate the guy.

Nerf: Snake: Take away his tilts. Yeah, I mean so he doesn't even have them anymore at all.

Buff: Peach- give her back her wicked f-throw, a faster/more powerful u-air, and a little more speed

Buff: Luigi- his old fair, or maybe slightly weaker than melee, and make him the only char who could wavedash

Nerf: Marth- give him ike's sword and make it so all the little fairy could do was drag it on the ground, make his jab like peachs (maybe give him girlier sounds)

Nerf: Snake- give him a pool noodle and some water ballons, his jabs should be him doing the sprinkler and make all his costumes animal prints but in pastels, snake the water aerobics instructor. oh and maybe his water balloons could randomly be flutter boards that he could throw

Buff: Ganon, or at least make him more similar to Melee Ganon.
Buff: Lucario. And by "Buff", I mean, turn his skin whitish purpleish, give him 3 round fingers, make more catlike, give him a giant purple tail, make his aura purple, and call it "Psychic", make him float, let him lift stuff with his mind, and call him "Mewtwo."

Nerf: Snake, obvious reason is obvious.
Nerf: Random, because there is a 1/35 chance he'll be snake.

Buff: Mario. I would give him more range in his attacks and increase his weight so it's harder to ko him. Also, I think he deserves a higher jump. He was freakin called JUMPMAN. Oh, and make the fireballs fail less. He is Nintendo's mascot after all, give him some credit.

Buff: Jiggly: More kill! less fail!

Nerf: Ike: Bring his strength down to a more reasonable level, so now he can only kill someone with his forward smash at when they're around 100%. Not like 70%. Also weaken his bair and uair.

Nerf: Marth: You can kiss your prettyboy face and speed goodbye. REMOVE HIS SPIKE.

Buff: Wario- just to annoy that other guy.

but seriously (Wario doesn't need a buff)

Buff: Captain Falcon, Ganon (more like change Ganon, he's still partially a clone)

Nerf: Snake, MK (but G&W and Dedede could use one to).

And most importantly: take ROB back to the toystore.

Falcon and Sonic deserve love and buffs.
Snake and Metaknight can die IRL, but even then they'd still be top tier.

Buff Sonic and Yoshi (not a yoshi fan personally, but he's an original 12 people, I think it's finally his time)

Nerf MK and G&W (that d-smash should NOT be spammable)

Probably in front of his Wii
Nerf MK, he would become slow and lose all combo ability.
Nerf Snake, he would lose his killing power.
Buff Toon Link, I would give him more killing power.
Buff Toon Link (again, probably cheating but watev), make his dair cancelable so it can be used off the edge and remove all landing lag.
