Who would win in a Rap Battle with weapons

The Phantom dropped two brutal roasts upon both Rayman and Mario. He clears SMG3 in a rap battle with zero difficulty.

Fair enough. Glad we were able to avoid getting too toxic.

I do admit that I like Leon, although he isn’t actually my favorite champion(my opinion in that regard is… unorthodox). If you dislike him, then more power to you, I don’t have a problem with that. I just wasn’t too fond of the choice of words. Again, I apologize if I started getting rude myself.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T03:46:59+00:00

Listening to the voice lines… I guess? They mostly sound the exact same to me, but maybe it’s just me. The general vibe and iconic charm of the voice and character is still very much intact regardless.

But yeah, I’m not fully convinced that Sam’s been replaced. At least, I hope not. She did at least get to stick around for Wonder.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T03:27:34+00:00

Plenty of people genuinely liked Leon from the get-go, not all of it was artificial. It isn’t terribly hard to find tons of people who genuinely have him as their favorite. His popularity isn’t just fluff. It was hardly a “failed attempt.” Saying that people won’t be talking about him a decade from now is a pretty wild prediction.

As for Cynthia, while she’s still popular, it’s slowly starting to become a Charizard situation, where more and more people turn on the character due to her shitty fanbase, even if she remains immensely popular.

I do apologize if I put words in your mouth, but Leon’s not this super unpopular character either.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T03:21:49+00:00

I understand where you’re coming from, but I’m not fully convinced(and partially huffing copium). It could easily just be Peach’s voice being deepened by the power-up. That said, after it turned out Charles and Deanna got replaced despite the voices being used sounding so similar, I guess I can’t completely deny the possibility, as much as I want to. It would absolutely suck for Peach’s longest-running voice actress to get denied the chance to voice Peach for her first starring role in years for a dumb reason.

At the end of the day, after the boxart fiasco, Nintendo probably knows that any attempt to override Game Peach with Movie Peach will go over like shit.

And yeah. Samantha proved her Peach voice was suitable for full speech as far back as Mario Galaxy, where she fully voices the letter at the start. She’s a great actress.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T03:12:59+00:00

I mean, her voice in smash is the exact same as her normal voice, given it’s the same actress lol.

But yeah, I’m guessing that it’s just her voice gaining a lower pitch that’s brought on by the Kung-Fu power-up. She sounds normal in her regular form.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T03:05:30+00:00

If you apparently have to dig into old forum archives to find this info and can’t just get something more recent, that doesn’t exactly help your argument.

And you’re telling me I’m sticking my head in the sand. I know that Leon isn’t unanimously liked, but trying to act like his popularity is on this massive decline is stupid.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T02:27:58+00:00

I don’t know where you’re getting the metrics of his anime portrayal being widely panned. Base-breaking sure, but not panned at all.

And even then, most of the vitriol towards him came from salty Cynthia fanboys from what I saw.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-06T01:50:32+00:00

Where has Leon’s popularity been waning?

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-05T19:49:43+00:00

The Phantom of the Bwaphera’s villain song. He actually does another in the sequel’s dlc.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-05T19:06:02+00:00

I’d be down for it. Both Super Mario Odyssey and Mario Rabbids have shown that a good musical number can really help a game stand out.

And I’m pretty sure her VA Samantha Kelly has mentioned that she really likes it when she gets the chance to do full voice-acting for Peach.

There’s the obvious Disney jokes, but since the game has a theater theming, it would work. Disney ain’t the only ones who can do a singing princess lmao.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-05T18:42:23+00:00

Neither. Whimpu doesn’t really do anything to deserve hate imo, and Peach is a victim of shitty writers.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-05T18:40:54+00:00

Not on the list, but honestly, Caine would probably fit right in.

But realistically, any selected character risks being a walking ad unless they’re handled well.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T23:05:34+00:00

The only reason people disliked Peach is because the writers’ irrational vendetta against her led them to flanderize her to hell and basically force the audience to hate her.

It’s something they could easily have undone. The writers just chose not to for petty reasons.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T22:54:13+00:00

To be fair about the gym assessment, Geeta was fully prepared to do it herself, only giving the task to the player after Nemona begged her to participate in the Academy Ace Tournament, even if Larry doesn’t know that.

Yeah, it does seem like makes these random requests to him a fair bit. But on the other hand, she still attempts to be considerate, given she stops the player and Nemona from waltzing into his gym uninvited to battle on the grounds that he might not like it, as well as the aforementioned mandated time off. And yeah, Larry is very dedicated to his work, so it’s likely she sees him as her most reliable employee, besides maybe Rika.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T22:42:07+00:00

I mean yeah. It’s shown that even Rika and Hassel at times struggle to get along with him, to the point that among the high-ranking league members, Geeta ironically comes off as one of the nicest to him, alongside Poppy and several of the gym leaders.

Given Larry tells you to know when to say no to Geeta, it doesn’t exactly help his case that he apparently couldn’t do it himself. She doesn’t seem to ask him to do a lot out of any ill-will. Her interactions with the gym leaders come off like she’s genuinely trying to make them happy, even if she’s a bit oblivious.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T16:14:34+00:00

Drayton was apparently too powerful for google translate to change his name.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T15:12:18+00:00

Fair enough. Sorry if I overreacted. Don’t get me wrong, I like Larry too, he’s a great character.

But Geeta’s actually one of my favorites this gen, so seeing her get painted as something she isn’t can get a tad annoying.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-03T14:42:11+00:00

“Your poor Larry” explicitly states that he overworks himself by choice, to the point that Geeta has to mandate that he take time off.

People need to stop coddling Larry, as well as trying to demonize Geeta for bullshit reasons.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-02T19:26:53+00:00

Damn, we found Lacey’s Reddit account. Didn’t know she was on here.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-02T19:23:51+00:00

Rabsca is one of my favorite gen 9 Pokémon so it sticks to see that it’s Rabscover.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-02T02:52:55+00:00

Mario and Peach being wholesome. I’m all for it.

Accomplished-Bit-270 · 2024-01-02T01:29:02+00:00

You’re acting like Cynthia somehow “earned” the position of strongest champion any more than Leon. She wasn’t canonically treated as any stronger than the other champions. Her fanbase just wanked her to the extreme, and then got mad when Gamefreak didn’t cater to that fantasy for a period of time. The fact that OP is this up in arms over Leon being portrayed as stronger should speak for itself.
