I'd be down with this, but the IKs in Imp Zone don't take kindly to me posting there. Is there any way I can get in on this action without eating a 6-hour probation for every post I make there? Or failing that, without posting in Imp Zone at all?

i didn't like the events much, but thinking back they aren't really any different than they ever were, so I'm thinking this is a golden sun:dark dawn scenario where it's not that they're bad now, but that they were always bad

idk I think Golden Sun is worse than the first two games but I defend those games more than they deserve to be defended.

okay yeah it's not a great analogy since dark dawn is definitely worse, although it's a mediocre vs. bad situation imo

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

Yeah

i got lucky and managed put a hold on the last adapter at a futureshop, but i spent more than the bundle cost and almost didn't even get the adapter

Lucina is a straight-up worse Marth. There is literally no reason to ever use her instead of Marth. I really want to like her (I like playing girl characters) but she is floatier so you can't do short hop neutral air openers like you can with Marth (pretty sure this also means she is lighter and thus more smashable but I am not sure about this) and the sword tip mechanic is gone, which just makes her weaker overall. What a blunder of design. Her alt costumes are way way better too. :(

not disagreeing with your conclusion here, but half this isn't true at all. they have the exact same physics, so she's not floatier or lighter. she also does more damage with untipped attacks than marth, but not nearly enough to compensate for how good tipped attacks are, which is the actual reason she's bad

that said, she has some small advantages. the running upsmash benefits from no tipper, and she might have an easier time shieldbreaking with her b

TheKingofSprings posted:

Marth's shield breaker will probably shatter a shield outright tipped, and if that happens you are probably dead past 35-40%.

yeah i figured that was probably the case, it's just that lucy's breaks at a short enough charge that i hoped the difference in charge time between only marth's tip breaking it and lucina's whole sword breaking it was negligible enough to give her the edge
