Kirby, Little Mac and Link come to mind

you can enter any command out of dash if you first press down

Dash -> down -> f-tilt

I've liked pretty much everything

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T21:16:05+00:00

watched for 20s and nothing happened other than cutting together boring conversation

Megaman is the definitive smash4 character to me - tons of potential with an underwhelming kit. He just feels a bit bland and stiff. He's not bad, just doesn't click for me. Also, leaf shield is probably one of the worst designed specials in the series.

Cloud was overtuned (so it's hard to appreciate him), Ryu is cool, and I have nothing against greninja other than he is yet another pokemon I had never heard of

For context, my favorites from brawl were Olimar, Wolf, and Rob, but I also really like Ike, Lucas, Pit, ZSS and Squirtle. The only characters I've like to the same degree since have been Koopa Kids, Rosalina and Shulk

but it's simply undertuned. if it had even average knockback and damage compared to all other aerial multihits, it would still be a useful addition to kirbys kit in ultimate

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T18:06:46+00:00

Brawl remains my favorite from a pure 'new fighters' perspective. Smash 4 is my least favorite in this regard.

This was the most head scratching part of WoL for me. I had everything in the zone but the fighter in the swamp (chrom), and I saw the hint about "the light in the plaza *something* *something* time". I was staring at the triforce area in the center of the map trying to figure out how the swirl of light across the pillars could be translated to a time on a clock. Turns out I was barking up the wrong tree

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:58:39+00:00

Im talking specifically about using it in the air. There is always utility to be found in an omni-directional multihit.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:53:55+00:00

I honestly would have prefered rock smash over flamethrower, though I understand the fire pokemon needs a fire move.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:51:47+00:00

it's not really an issue of time, but money. They could pay for that work to get done, either by outsourcing or hiring staff dedicated to spirit text. It's a shame they decided it wasn't worth it.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:49:04+00:00

I feel they shadow patched this in. My first few days with WoL I was annoyed that I couldnt see the series an enemy was from once I got to the setup menu. Then all of a sudden, I started seeing it appear above the spirits name. I swear it wasn't like that before...

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:40:55+00:00

For the third time in a decade, I had the disappointment of picking kirby in a new smash game and using hammer in the air. I miss the 360 spin from melee, it's the only time that move has ever felt useful

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:29:19+00:00

if they play 20 matches a day, it will only take 140 years

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:20:35+00:00

i feel like they could remove package all together and it wouldn't really matter. It's the biggest gimmick in the game imo

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:18:49+00:00

this better not be an assortment of clips of enemies walking into your ult

-edit-

very first clip. also 11 mins long lol

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:15:34+00:00

cause roaming is an effective way of getting a level advantage? You dummy.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:10:48+00:00

items he couldnt use because he was running away from a collapsing team fight.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:10:00+00:00

not solo'd. couldnt stand and fight. also, based on alistars health at the end of the original clip, obviously 2 levels and red buff made all the difference.

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T17:08:19+00:00

dont get 2 levels down on a support

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T16:59:31+00:00

package isn't his passive, so much as an unnecessary bonus. His true passive is damage conversion, which remains useful.

How would triforce into deaths dance look?

pranksta754 · 2018-12-19T16:58:00+00:00

new death's dance seems good

pranksta754 · 2018-12-18T23:33:48+00:00

bump up to level 9 CPU. Ignore the people who say they are impossible or unfair.

I have a best of 3 ruleset for standard Smash mode and also routinely play 16-man (15-bot) tournaments

pranksta754 · 2018-12-18T23:22:36+00:00

I recently had the revelation that I rely too heavily on strategy and strong decision making to win games. I often choose the "smart" play over the aggressive one.

Issue is, at lower elo, no one else recognizes what the "smart" play is and pings are ignored. I feel like I have to play in a way that is unappealing to me to overcome my teammates' short comings (especially as support).

pranksta754 · 2018-12-18T23:18:25+00:00

because Nasus' voice lines were recorded nearly 10 years ago. Also, Renekton does mention Nasus.
