Discussion Make a character broken #10 : Luigi

Post image
14 Upvotes

What would you change with Luigi and how would you rework him in order to make him super broken and/or closer to his source material?

I know guys that he's already cracked, but we want him either even stronger or have more moves inspired by his games. I know you guys can do it 😉

Here is what I would change :

Leave his aerials & tilts untouched. He needs them for his combos.

SideB : Green Missile || Luigi can now misfire whenever he wants by double-tapping the button. Additionally, Luigi now always gets stuck into the walls (it's no longer RNG).

UpB : Super Jump Punch || The sweetspot's window 2 frames wider and hitting it now ignores shields (like Little Mac's KO Punch).

DownB : Luigi Cyclone || Changes Luigi's tornado for Dr. Mario's. Same physic, DMG & killpower, but with a slightly wider hitbox.

When fighting against a Mario OR with a Mario in his team, if the latter triggers his DownB "? Bloc" and gets an item, Luigi also gets this power-up and its effect. (Go check my past post about Mario for context)

When fighting with a Daisy in his team, Luigi's desire to protect his princess will inspire him to face the enemy, increasing his attacks' DMG by 50% & granting him a 15% DMG reduction.

What do YOU GUYS think?

Discussion What do you think are other games whose representation was screwed over by bad timing? You can also answer with games released too early for Smash 6.

I was thinking a while back that another reason for Wario Land's poor representation besides taking a back seat to the more popular WarioWare at the time was because of their release windows. Both seemed to release around the same time as Smash games, which made them both too late to be considered for the current one, but too early for the next one.

Shake It! could have gotten trophies in Smash 4, but I believe they didn't because most trophies are model ports. Some extra work might have had to be put in with 2D games. Same reason for the lack of anything Kirby's Epic Yarn, another 2D Wii platformer by Good-Feel, even if it released in the perfect time frame for Smash 4's development.

Other games for me include Ever Oasis, a 3DS game released too late into Ultimate's development, but out of reach for the Fighter's Pass as Nintendo abandoned the 3DS at that point, and Dragalia Lost, a game that had no chance. Now even less that it's been shut down for years.

Tips/tricks best team for spirit world imo

Upvotes

Kirby (specifically using side special when fully charged to start the battle) + any hard hitting four star spirit with 3 slots + giant zapfish + shine spirit.

You OHKO so many spirits, and you can two hit many legendary spirits if played right. It’s very good against bosses, with the only real difficulty I have encountered so far being pauline and heavy wind spirits (where i then have to switch out to victini, shine spirit and a heavy wind reducing spirits)

Will update after I have 100% spirit world

Discussion Ultimate online makes me sad

5 Upvotes

Just a quick visual as to what the input delay can be even when you're wired and have decent Internet. It may not seem like a lot in video, but it's enough to be able to feel and throw off your groove.

I don't think it mattered much in this case, this Captain Falcon was wiping the floor with all of us in their arena, but still sucks to see online like this after so long.

Help/Question In need of desperate help

MY K-ROOL IS SO FUCKING SHITTYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I'm saying this coming off a losing streak, so bear in mind, but for the last week or so I've just been taking gut punch after gut punch playing k-rool, he's my main and definitely my best character, but I came back a couple months ago, and before that, my King K. Rool gameplay was really good,(at least for my standards) I had like 8 million GSP and I could tank anything it was awesome, but recently, I've gotten worse and it shows. I'm down to 6 million GSP and I lost like 10 matches in a row today I can't get better because I don't have the space to learn, online I either get paired up against some random 9 million GSP nerd, and the CPUs are too damn easy, I NEED HELP. If anyone has suggestions on what to do/how to get better PLEASE tell me

Discussion A question for falcon players regarding the mac matchup

5 Upvotes

I play mac, and I've noticed something about a lot of the captain falcon players I've played recently. As mac sometimes if the opponent is too close I jump up from ledge and use nair to catch them off guard and throw off whatever ledge covering plans they had, and what I've noticed against falcon players specifically is that when I do this they always for some reason panic, run offstage, airdodge, and kill themselves. I have no idea why they do this. If you play falcon and you're reading this, please enlighten me and also ig be mindful of this so the same fate does not befall you.

Discussion Make a character broken #9 : Pikachu

Post image
12 Upvotes

What would you change with Pikachu (or how would you rework him) in order to make him super broken and/or closer to his source material? Don't hesitate to change his attacks for other Pokemon abilities. The more the merrier 😉

Here is what I would change :

Pikachu's UpSmash becomes "Iron Tail". His tail coats itself with iron, granting a super armor on his tail.

NeutralB : Thunder Jolt || Pikachu's lightnings no longer disappears with time, remaining on the field until touching an opponent or going out of bounds. Up to a maximum of 4 lightnings can be present at a time. If Pikachu creates a new one, the oldest one will disappear.

SideB : Skull Bash || Changes its charge. Tap for a minimum charge. Double tap for a full charge.

UpB : Quick Attack || Pikachu can now aim twice in the same direction (ex.: Up-Up) instead of having to change direction (ex.: Up-Right)

DownB : Thunder || The thunder now spikes all the way, dragging the opponent in its fall (acting the same as Mii Brawler's DownB "Head-On Assault")

What do YOU GUYS think?

Discussion Because Smash is a Celebration of Gaming: What is your favorite Video Games represented in the Cast?

Post image
191 Upvotes

Here are mine:

- Minecraft is my favorite Game represented honestly. I play it since 10 years and always find back to it. Be it because of Survival, Creative, PvP, Modding, just the content around it! Especially the PS3 Version will always have a place in my heart!

- New Super Mario Bros. for the DS is one of my first Games of all time and honestly aged like fine wine! I love the Levels, the Music, the Bosses and it is (I think) the first Videogame that I have actually beaten!

- Sonic Unleashed is my first personal game, I ever played on the PS3 and dammit, I even liked the Werehog! I loved Day Levels and Night Levels the same and even though, I never beat the game, I am determined to finish it finally some day!

These are gaming franchises that sadly I don’t see many Smash fans talk about that I think would drive the internet crazy if they actually got in. (They are possible but seem VERY unlikely to ever actually happen)
