TheOneAndOnlyT: Dec 18, 2005; Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.

Just played a 1-on-1 match as Marth against Falco in a match where the game absolutely would not let me die. The match ended with both my stocks intact at 240%, and the nail in the coffin was me shield-breaking him, taunting, and ending it with a fully charged fsmash. I cannot even imagine the rage that Falco must have been feeling. :allears:

I'm told that Falco players no longer feel much of anything.

It sucks because Falco has very few kill moves. Bair is hard to land and his side smash is slow. Down smash KOs at really high percentages but still not that good.

The video on how the guy made the Rayman fake is really cool, as is his timelapse where it shows him drawing it. He copies the style incredibly well. According to the commentary on his timelapse of the art, that was his first time ever using After Effects as well :psyduck:

http://hextupleyoodot.deviantart.com/art/The-Rayman-Leak-514141031 Here's the high res of the Rayman artwork. Love the detail.

Making a nod to the original Rayman box art was a very good touch to add to the authenticity.

Also, I wonder if Rayman4Smash is as unhinged as that Mewtwo fan that thought Mewtwo not (initially) being in Smash was Worse Than 9/11

does it make you fast fall when try to d-air with it

Depends on when I use it. Typically whenever I'm starting to fall after a jump.

EDIT: Did further testing. I seem to be able to consistently trigger a fast-fall if I move the C-Stick down as I'm doing an attack.

Throw them off stage and forward air them. Toss them up and up air them. D-tilt and fair them (that combos around 60-70, and will kill at that damage if you're close to the edge). Fair will gimp a lot of characters even when it doesn't kill them outright. Up tilt kills around 160-170. I disagree that back air is hard to land.

Falco's definitely not as good as Brawl (or Melee, but this iteration has more in common with Brawl Falco), but he's far from being bad in this game.

Are there any characters in this game that are actually bad? Even Metaknight doesn't seem to be as bad as everyone makes him out to be.

Supposedly Donkey Kong is the worst character in the game but I have a pretty good time with him. Anecdotal of course, but... v :shobon:

Reiley: Dec 16, 2007

Someone on one of the streams mentioned how they did a good job balancing fast characters to be fast and light and slow characters to be slow and strong so unlike Melee or Brawl you could play one style against the other instead of both styles of character playing strictly to the global pace of the game and everyone has a legitimate chance to succeed. Which is cool, I like smash

Well in Meta's case, people are complaining because he's now upper-mid(?) tier rather than "keep pressing B to win".

Wii Fit Trainer is pretty bad.

If half of her hit-boxes weren't dependent on the other character's height she'd be the greatest character of all time. Sun Salutation, Header, and one of the best f-tilts in the game are nice though

Wii Fit Trainer's one of my favorite characters to play with, though. The first hit of her jab hits behind her with surprisingly decent knockback, so I like using that to get rid of people rolling around me. And she can duck under a lot of projectiles (take that, Falco). Apparently one of her up-B customs is really really good too.

I've heard many people say Mii Swordfighter is the worst character in the game. Though like any other character, it's possible to win with him/her.

Custom Wii Fit trainer looks nuts, one of her replacement neutral B's is a straight up huge explosion.

Wii Fit is completely fine and mid-tier and usable. So is DK, I'm genuinely not sure where the notion he is bad comes from. Especially when he has such ridiculous edgeguarding game.

The Miis kind of suck except Brawler. Gunner is ~alright~ but other characters do the same thing except better. Swordsman is garbage awful, probably the worst character in the game from a numbers standpoint.

In a game where everyone has amazing recovery, DK's is trash.

Not saying that totally justifies how bad everyone thinks he is but it's a pretty glaring flaw.

A lot of characters have predictable/punishable recoveries. It's part of the reason I pick Kirby as my main (besides him being the very best nintendo character of course) is that his off-stage and edgeguarding game is supreme since his down air and back air are ridiculously good.

It's true that his recovery is not amazing but literally all of his moves have good knockback, huge priority, and cover a large amount of space. If he gets you off the edge and is playing well he essentially gets free kills off of spike mixups and his upB covers back to the ledge providing he doesn't go too deep.

Also yeah his customs are stupid good.

Her side-b spikes if you hit with the headbutt and her feet spike during her forward air

DK's custom helps a problem that all big characters have, which is giving him a super armor move. Also one of his custom DK punches is a whirlwind so it's safe if you miss right in front of a character.

Man, customs are so awesome.
