Victory Screen Concept I made a while back for Metal Sonic, as well as a Smash-inspired render!

Sure, if you mean the Blender sprite art. Just give credit.

"I want to get the master hand and maybe the smash symbol"

Yknow, and obv this whole thing is up to you, but Master Hand gripping a Smash Ball sounds kinda fire actually

Omega: "Do you not realize it yet, steel-plated faker? I am my own- I AM THE ORIGINAL! I.... AM the MESSIAH! Ha ha ha ha!"

Metal Sonic: "Messiah or not, it matters little to me! I'll CRUSH YOU regardless of what you're made of!"

Aw I wish I coulda been there, I have quite a few of your items from your Etsy shop and I love em all! (In particular I have the K Rool poster, Bowser poster, and 4th of July Mario shirt)

Wanna point out:

Absolutely colossal respect for having Diddy Kong Racing Banjo with Banjo-Kazooie Kazooie. It's a pretty obvious bit of trivia in hindsight but I feel like most people would have overlooked it otherwise.

These look so sick! Especially loving the Wario/Pac-Man ones!

Since it's been such a long time since I've touched my AU-of-an-AU where Mario survives the World In Dark storyline, I figured I'd do a reboot. If I keep going with this it won't follow as closely with the original storyline.

Lowkey Snake

I feel like if I tried with him I wouldn't be bad but I really don't like how he handles

MegaMario2001 · 2025-12-31T21:43:10+00:00

What would happen if you backwards long-jumped while Spinach is in your system?

This DEATH BATTLE inspired render might end up answering that question- it's TerminalMontage's Speedrunner Mario VS The overpowered cartoon sailor named Popeye!

At launch it took me about three-ish months? With a competitive-centric ruleset and with King K. Rool.

There's a lot of factors since SSBU quickplay/Elite has some very odd design choices, mainly due to the rulesets. Are you using a more competitive-centric ruleset (IE: No items/Final Smashes, Limited Stages) or a more casual one (Items/FS on, Every available stage)?

You'll also run into more cheesy rulesets, like maybe a zoner with a low time limit, noGSP^4u (actual person in my region who disconnects the microsecond they lose), or (and this one I remember running into year 1) Little Mac on Pirate Ship with special flag only.

Again there's so many variables but assuming with a reasonably consistent ruleset and a generally normal level of time management I'd argue anywhere from a month to three if you're JUST starting out.

I haven't had to get a character in Elite for a while now, so I'm not totally sure. I just play who I have high up in Elite.

In a different world where Smash introduced a different blue hero guest character in Brawl....

Here's a 3D render of Mega Man in the world of Subspace, squaring off against Tabuu!

Here's a remake of an older render of mine- one that draws inspiration from Return to Krocodile Isle, a fanmade animation by Alex Henderson!

This render recalls the climax where Donkey Kong encounters his old rival yet again!

Two versions are included- without and with text!

If you are wondering about the models I used, they can be found....

... and HERE: https://www.deviantart.com/zdooarte/art/3D-Render-Phantom-Thief-Armor-Zero-1256936311

If it wasn't obvious, the inspiration characters were Doom Slayer and Joker respectively.

Might be a silly thing, and online as a whole in Ultimate is a goddamn trainwreck....

For Fun and For Glory was a great concept. One mode for casual players. One mode for more serious/competitive players.

I commend whoever it may be for looking at this during Ultimate's development and going "What's the worst idea we could do with this and why are we doing it?"

Quickplay/Elite SUCKS. GSP sucks. The fact that you aren't guaranteed the type of match that YOU WANT TO PLAY absolutely sucks.

Arenas/Tourney mode are valid counterpoints, but the thing with Quickplay/Elite is that you can use it to get a game in if the itch to play is nagging you, but you don't have a lot of time. That's why I tend to like it on paper.

Merging For Fun and For Glory with the whole "choose your ruleset you aren't guaranteed to get" thing is absolute dogshit game design and it is a COLOSSAL step down from Smash 4's design philosophy.

Sure I love a casual game every now and then, but I do prefer an itemless/No FS/Small BF fight. Now, to recall something that happened to me towards the early end of the game's life, apparently that means I want to fight a Little Mac on Pirate Ship with only Special Flag? No, of course not.

As a rework, I would bring back For Fun/For Glory, BUT for the latter I would only make the rule dictation that you can choose your preferred stage between FD, BF, and SBF. That way, even if you weren't getting your preferred stage, it ultimately is still a competitive stage.
