The only objective fact is that Dedede is perfect. The rest is debatable.

The game even says that HRH King Dedede is perfect, you can't argue with that.

Mii Brawler on top :allears:

I know it's probably because of that OHKO glitch, but still, the idea of any of the Miis being top tier, haha.

When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.

Ok what's probably a stupid question but: how the hell do I knock people out on larger stages?

I've been playing as Lucina and I can get my enemies to 200+ percent as a routine but I never seem to manage to land a good blow that sends them flying. Meanwhile, I get killed at half that almost effortlessly. Mostly it seems that I die from being hit upward by aerial attacks since Lucina apparently sucks at attacking downward, but when I try to knock enemies into the air they hardly seem to go flying at all. Any advice? Should I just give up on Lucina and switch to some other character?

Sorry I don't know the terminology well.

chasing off the stage is pretty crucial, lucy has good air moves and so can finish people off that way

otherwise, try and land a front smash, a counter, a upsmash (if people roll a lot waiting for a roll than doing a running upsmash is good) or a shieldbreaker.

if you break someone's shield and then do a fully charged shield breaker again you'll kill in the 50s

I don't care for Tier lists, but I can at least agree that Mii Swordfighter does blow. That's basically the one character I rarely if ever use, and I like to use everyone.

lol at fox, a character who dies at like 50 percent and was nerfed severely, being tier "A"

Fox has better recovery in this game than he ever has before and gets mad loving mixups off two hits of his jab combo. Plus you can do dope loving combos like jab jab ftilt running upsmash and kill people from liek 80%.

Reflector's range got nerfed and it has less knockback in this game, but that and his dair are the only things that got nerfed. He's not as good as in melee but WAY better than he was in brawl.

OH and fox illusion is safe if done low to the ground unless you perfect shield it. You don't usually get anything off of it but it's real annoying.

"wich the worst part was what troll face did to sonic's corpse after words wich was rape it. at that point i looked away"



Has anyone else experienced some minor input lag when using the Gamecube adapter? It's probably less than half a second, but in a fast-paced game like smash that makes a lot of difference. I've heard that I can fix it by turning my TV onto "Game Mode" but can't see to find that option. I'm also not using official gamecube remotes, so maybe that's it? Anyone got any ideas?

I can practically guarantee that it's the fault of the controller.

Here comes a special boy!
Just heading home from Yodobashi Camera, it's launch day here in Japan and the store is pretty busy selling a billion amiibos.

I got a link and Zelda, but there seems to be quite a few people just buying amiibos and no game. I'm sure some are downloading it but it looks like these things are popular on their own.

They have tonnes of stock of the game, download code, every amiibo and white and black smash GCN controllers but are out of stock of GCN adapters until the 19th.

Edit: also didn't see anyone buying just one amiibo, everyone had 2-5.

Didn't spot anyone getting the whole set.

So... who likes tier lists? I think they can be pretty fun.

This is apparently the current Japanese ranking, based on tournament results.


I wonder what's different about Dr. Mario between this and Melee. He mostly feels the same, just I'm having more trouble being successful with him. In particular, issues with his short range seem more apparent, along with difficulty actually finishing people off.

Also this:

I guess pre-ordering the entire bundle (game, adapter, controller) turned out to be a good idea after all?

Heavy gravity is a special mode, which unfortunately means you can't play it online even with friends.

It seems really odd that they'd discontinue amiibo this early in their lifespan. I mean, yeah, I don't think anyone is expecting more niche characters to hang around forever, but its been what, 2 weeks?
