It's dumb how some characters just get caught in that and cannot get out, though. Like bowser and metaknight both arbitrarily cannot avoid the followup foot after choke, even though they're completely different.

I just had like 10 really really good, close matches against someone, and then my router shat itself and I'll probably never find them again

TheKingofSprings posted:Do you play Zelda by any chance Also I just had like 5 matches against this guy who was only playing as Robin/Lil Mac, and I swear to god I shield broke him at least twice every single match. Once like 5 times. Don't block the sparkley-stab move, guy. Prior experience indicates that it won't work out for you.

Rolling too much will get you punished if your opponent knows what they're doing, though. It's real handy to learn the timing on turning around for attacks.

Copper Vein posted:Was at an arcade on Saturday and was approached to join in a Smash tourney. Said "Sure," walked over to where 12 people were gathered with Pro controllers and Wii-motes and I set up a control profile. unless you actually think 'tournament' should be a 6 person match with items on? instead of, a series of 1v1s??

I do still wish there was a 'battlefield' option alongside final destination versions of stages.

It wouldn't be a problem if we could copy/paste+select n' move things in the stage editor, but I guess we're supposed to painstakingly place every single bit of terrain by hand and so most people just don't

He does rule, except for when he says something, thinks it's really funny, and then says it 100 more times. Call me damage. Call me damage. Damage! Call me damage!

I have no idea how to deal with lil mac as samus. Everything I have is either sluggish, low priority, or lovely range, it's hard to even punish his dash on block. Maybe I should try poking with the air grapple more but considering how he has moves with super armor that might just be setting myself up for punishes.

Sire Oblivion posted:This is Samus' worst iteration, you're coming to learn it. Pretty soon you'll realize you have no priority, a bad zoning game, predictable attacks, movement and really limited options. That's when you'll drop Samus for good because she's terrible. I have no idea why they nerfed her down-smash at all, though, let alone as much as they did. Worse damage, way worse knockback... maybe they thought a good down-smash to catch predicted rolls would be too much space control for a character who also has heavy projectiles? Still weird. It's becoming more and more clear to me that the characters I like the most just aren't good.

Honestly, just give samus the mii gunner's smash attacks. They're way better and they make more sense for her, and that would mean the single worst up-smash to ever exist could finally be laid to rest

Pirate Jet posted:Pretty much everyone just said that Smash is great for having simple controls, but that doesn't mean it's an excuse for the game being poorly balanced. Poor competitive play can also affect casual play. Not even friends drinking beer in four-player free-for-alls like that guy who picks Diddy Kong over and over again for easy wins.

I guess I understand it and similarly wanting to like something like for example, Mario Kart but can't get into the specific veneer the games are coated in. Or like how some people might really be into the mechanics of Bayonetta the game, but are put off by Bayonetta herself for some reason.

shortspecialbus posted:I dunno about that. We had one guy who someone brought over once who just destroyed everyone, even in a 4 player free for all. I guess he's probably an extreme example, but I just feel that in general if someone's really good and doesn't play down that it sort of becomes unfun for people. However, smash has rules settings for a reason: you can always do a 2v1 or 3v1, or turn on damage handicaps and crank it up to 50%+.

down-b to punish rolls towards you is really satisfying, especially if they don't realize it'll break their shield super quick

# ¿ Jan 8, 2015 06:48 |

Your Computer posted:I tried trailing his rolls so I could attack him as he got out of it, but literally every time I would just hit his shield and he'd grab me. And if he rolls towards you(across your character ending near you), that can often be punished with a well-timed down smash at the end of the roll, or forward smash in that direction if your character's down smash doesn't hit backwards fast enough. If you play as DK you can just use down-B to punish rolls, and it'll break shield very quickly, and with Marth/Lucina neutral-B is a good option for making shielding unsafe.

Smashing Link posted:From the casual perspective, it seems like the diehard Melee players are reluctant to give up mastery of glitches that make the gameplay quite arcane compared to the rest of the series. It's more of a physics exploit than a glitch, as far as than is a meaningful distinction anyways.
