I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG, BROTHER!
I'm curious if they're going to encourage the players to A) pick the new characters B) don't just go for the boring flat stages and C) play with items on?

I mean it's a tournament so I imagine the competitors want to play with competitive rules, but on the other hand this is 100% a promotional tool and they'd want to have them show off all the game has to offer. Or perhaps they'll have for glory and for fun matches at this invitational thing to show off both.

I don't play competitively, but I think it's really cool how they included Final Destination versions of most of the stages.

I'm hoping they do something special at the end of the tournament. Like rig it so in the final match the winner is suddenly slammed with a "CHALLENGER APPROACHING" event to show off someone big, like Mewtwo returning or something.

:psyduck: That would be genius

Waluigi has been referenced as Wario's sibling, his cousin and completely unrelated to him. The last seems to be what they're going with these days.

A Wario MOBA is a perfect fit really, given that you spend most of your time in those games beating up little dudes and taking their money.

Pic of the day. With the Super Leaf, any fighter can have ears and a tail. You can also float in the air by pressing the jump button. We're still figuring out whether you'll be able to attack with the tail...

Interesting that some mechanics are still being experimented with at this stage. It's normal for items you hold to replace your A attacks, but not items you wear. Maybe that's why they're not sure yet.
