Wow again I missed quite a bit.

Alright for the SSE clip those were big *** Din's Fire explosion I really hope it's not SSE exclusive cause I want to make huge exposions like that. But man were Peach and Zelda mean to the others they kept pushing them off to the sides:laugh:. Hope there's more interaction between Snake and the princesses should get interesting *points at the pic where Snake grabs Zelda* hehe.

Oh yeah and Arean you are very welcome for your sig i'm glad you like it. That goes for everyone elses I made one for I feel so loved.:bee: Though Drake I think you're making similiar gender mistakes like Stip has.;)

Also nooooooooooooooo, Luthien you stole normal/purple Zelda I wanted to use that :p. Then green is chosen as well now I can't match with Link. I will go with red ranger Zelda then or is that taken as well meh. Though i'm not sure if I like witch Zelda all that much *hides under rock*.

Am I the only one who can still see Luthien's sig?:psycho:

You and Luthien. It's either because your browser is pulling the file from your internet caches or your hard drives. The rest of us only see "BANDWIDTH EXCEEDED. UPGRADE TO PRO TODAY!"

Green will always be my favorite Zelda color, but I'm going to get used to using them all.

Remember though, the explosion radius of Din's Fire increases with its travel time. This has always been the case in Melee as well, but the apparent size of the explosion was always the same regardless of distance. In the particular screen I grabbed, it was used at/near maximum range. In other parts of that same video, the explosion obviously isn't as big.
Oh, wow. Never thought of that. Thank you for your genious, Ryoko.

Am I the only one who can still see Luthien's sig?
Only good Zelda players can see my sig. That would explain Drake3's inability. If you aren't Drake and you can't see my sig, then no offence. I'm sure your computer has made a mistake.

Anyway, I'm always willing to play Zelda's blue outfit if anyone MUST use my first choice.

Perhaps there could be a sticker to lessen the transformation time?
Apparently, only Zelda would need that. In the next episode of Ryoko's video, Zelda takes longer to transform into Sheik, whereas Sheik only takes as long as it was in Melee! Roar...

Oh, I see. Thanks for clearing that up thought I was hallucinating. Wait if PwnyRide can see it then we both must be. lol

Also I agree with green Zelda. It was my favorite as well aside from the original. I don't use any other color only those two in Melee. Even on teams if I was Zelda I always had to be the green team not sure why.

Though I love all the colors in Brawl well except one of them sorta. I guess i'll learn to love it.

Oh no you don't! I get blue, what with my old white costume gone ;).

Rather upset that I can't view the Youtube videos on my current connection... Though I guess it's for the best to avoid SSE spoilers (though I think I can gather enough of it with all the tidbits lying around).

Dammit. I thought you said you were a guy!

Your imaginary sig >_>. And I can't believe you added the 3 to my name.

...What. Sakurai, you *****.

I think I've lost track of who gets what colour. So long as I don't have to use the dumb blond or fatass black I'll be happy. No offense to anyone who likes these of course.

Ladies and gentlemen, I think we've found the new Stippy. Let's give him a round of applause.

I was feeling an urge. If it makes you feel any better, I didn't the second time... Drake3.

Same. Except for that blond/fat*** part.

Oh no you don't! I get blue, what with my old white costume gone ;).
BACK OFF, BLINK!! IT'S MINE!! *Fends off with a stick* My favourite Melee outfit was the white, too. I'll play blue against... *reads through thread-- again* ... spAzn. Got it. But I'm purple against everyone else!

Waiiittt..
How many zelda players are guys here?
/raises hand.

I knew that I would be maining Zelda regardless of:
-Sheik's inclusion
-buffs/nerfs
-any other characters

I've always liked playing people in Melee where I wouldnt tell them who I play as. And theyre like..oh Sheik...and I just smile. Then they realize I stay as Zelda and laugh. Even though I rarely win, its always been close and the game ends with them saying that they never knew Zelda could be so awesome. (Note: Im not a competitive player, so I no nothing about stuff like wavedashing and edgeguarding and all the stuff.)

*woot* Purple and Melee/Pink are the best!

Hm, I was under the impression there were a few guys among us. I always seemed to think:
Drake: Guy
Luthien: Female
Ryoko: Male
Zstarfish: male
Stip: Female.
Arean: Torn =S I'm leaning more towards male though.
Iris: Female.
Pappioll: Female.

Sorry if I missed anyone. Those were the Zelda players I usually see around the boards, and it's pretty late. Ha.

Guess the Zelda players gender ;]

Correction: Mega failure. xD
Darn. I thought Luthien was male, but I was sure I read somewhere he was female. =[
Should've stuck with my gut instinct xD
I wasn't sure about Drake. I guessed male simply because of the name.


Darn. Here's me thinking I was such a gender detective. ;]
Zekda forums ar ehard to predict.

Go to the Zelda main thread. I've tried to start it there. Also:

I KNEW IT! HAHA!

Oh, and Stippy: If you're wrong about Drake, I will laugh really loudly. Really. Loudly.

Yeah I think you guessed Iris to be a guy originally.

So there's a match between Sheik and Lucario, and in it Sheik transforms (to abuse the kick; but ironically it doesn't work if you don't know how to play Zelda) and then transforms back again. There's honestly no difference in transformation length. They both take 2 seconds (and I counted using the timer) to switch.

Also of importance, Sheik's third jump doesn't look that much shorter than Zelda's.

Sheik's third jump? Really? I saw a video with Sheik in the SSE, which was also showing Zelda and Sheik transformation times (which were exactly the same by the way to whoever said that Sheik's was shorter) and I remember I only thought how pathetic the reach of her UpB was.

Soooo I was guessed to be a girl? Or not guessed at all?
Oh come on, I'm sure you had some impression of me Stippy?

She was fighting against an air current, so it wasn't reaching far in that portion. This is the same video which shows both transforms at 2:30, where the Sheik->Zelda transformation is definitely shorter than the Zelda->Sheik one. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zng57bUoz4

I did, but it was never a matter of gender that came to mind whenever I thought of you to be completely honest.

To the bottom of my heart I don't mean this in an offensive way, but I always thought of you as a horse!
It was probably the avatar that was influencial to my depiction of you though. See the horse at the bottom of Link? See See See?

Same with "Nothing rhymes with circus" male/female parts don't really come to mind when I think of said potato. Rather.....errrr..... mickey mouse?
What gender IS circus anyway? :?

All I know is that on wifiwars, it's definitely the same length.

And in the same fight, Sheik's third jump performed a miracle save because I really didn't think it would go that far.

Ah after watching it again the difference in transformation time is noticeable. But it's not significant. That extra half second isn't going to change the tide of battle for the most part, so I don't think it's that big of a deal, besides it may be because we're expecting it to be shorter that it actually does look shorter. I've done that quite a few times.

@Stiputation: You mean.. the wolf? Nice to know that I don't even get the benefit of the doubt on being human. No I'm just a horse/wolf :(

Yeah, transformation definitely looks the same length

and her UpB isn't that long. There's a time in the video where she uses it on the ground from one edge of the stage and she doesn't even reach halfway. Assuming Battlefield is the same size in relation to the characters as in Melee and assuming that Farore's Wind is the same, Zelda's is like twice as long considering her's takes her from one edge of the stage to 2/3 of it.


Edit: I just tested in Melee and Sheik's Up-B on Battlefield took her to the exact same spot from the video when used in the same place. It also took two of Sheik's Up-B's to reach one of Zelda's Farore's.

Oh wow.

Quite the poor guessing I see.
And the insulting of my Bruja black Zelda (Bruja = Witch)
Don't worry. I'm going to get tubby working.
No more ice cream or donuts for her >:]]
Hehehe, that'll teach her.

[/innerthoughts]

On another note, what are everyone's thoughts of forming that one Zelda Alliance? I really want to do it no matter how lame it seems.

EDIT:
After watching Drake's video, I've come up with this conclusion.
Although I don't see any difference in the time it takes to transform (~2 seconds for each), there could be reasoning behind why they would make the time differentiate. Balancing.
Take this into account.

I want to use Zelda/Sheik for a match. I know that Sheik is good for comboing and Zelda for KO-ing. So, why not start the match as Sheik. I can start comboing the opponent and raise their percentage. However, I don't want to have to wait until ~180 percent to kill (hehe loser Sheik). So I transform into Zelda. I still have to fight though. Transform has to go much quicker so that I can get a KO before I get KO-ed. One newly buffed Down Air and their dead. I need to transform back to Sheik so that I can combo again. However, I have some time since the opponent is barely coming back to life. To balance that quicker transform, I need to come back with a slower one so that Transform isn't always abused.

In this situation, both Zelda and Sheik are used properly. Sure, there are still possible errors but that is how I feel it did/would have happened. I still don't believe one takes longer than the other, however, if it does, that would be my idea as to why. Agree or disagree, that is only an opinion.

Oh, and Vanish (Up+B) does look a tad bit longer.

Looks like we could've had a Zelda clone guys. Young Zelda from WW. Could've been a faster version of the Zelda we have right now. Might've been interesting.
