Super Smash Bros.: The one with Ridley in it

[medoli900]

I can do all the red path pretty much easily at intensity 9.0, but the black path (crazy and master hand) is so insane o.o

Also, I can't play online. There is too much player that are overpowerful. I can't even touch them that I die TT-TT

[Syobon]

Holy shit

We mahvel now bb

[Shad]

now we're looking at the first game of all of them to have everyone be about the same level, with playstyle being what matters most.

That's really too early to say that. The metagame is being developed right now and although many characters look good there already seems to be a few that stick out as better and a few that stick out as not as good. I'd wait a good while before claiming that "everyone is about the same level". With 51 characters in such a complex game, that's really hard to guarantee.

[Galaxy Man]

there's definitely characters who aren't quite as consistently viable, but compare it to melee, in which a majority of characters were simply outplayed by the faster characters

i'm confident enough to say that this is much better balanced then every smash to date, even if it's gonna be a while until we figure out who's best and whatever, i'm pretty sure we're gonna be looking at more good characters than bad

[Syobon]

How long has the game been out now? 2 days?? 3 weeks in Japan? If the game has competitive merit, it will take at least half a year to figure out how to play it. Before that, it doesn't make much sense to discuss balance at all.

Now that doesn't mean you're wrong, and I certainly understand your desire to share your first impressions, but I follow a lot of different competitive games (not trying to claim expertise, just sharing my experience) and looking back at balance discussions at launch or even sometimes patch release is often hilarious for how far of the mark they are. So feel free to discuss, just be wary of settling into an opinion too early.

I want to get better at Pac Man but until that happens Ganondorf is doing really well for me. He feels a lot better in this game and it's actually tactically feasible now to use warlock punch in a battle

[mister popo]

After doing For Tryhard with every character, I have determined that Diddy Kong is the best character in the game.

[Shad]

Diddy Kong is cool and he feels not as annoying to fight with only one banana in the equation

[Blitz Walrus]

Bowser's way more fun to play now than he's ever been.

[Winchester]

I still don't like Bowser but I've never enjoyed the heavy characters anyway

I haven't played every character yet but I'm really surprised by how much I enjoy how ZS Samus controls. I was expecting her to feel kinda slippery for some reason

[medoli900]

Ok. I wanted to master Robin, but it seems that Zero Suit Samus, Lucina and Link are taking his place for my playstyle. It is more surprising considering the fact that I almost never use Samus in any SSB, I never liked playing Fire Emblem swordmans and I always prefered Toon Link over Link. I was so hyped for Robin tough TT-TT

Also, the shirt costume of ZS Samus is so slightly more darker than her skin than it looks like she is naked. I did not think she was over sexualized, but in this costume...

Edit:

What if Ganondorf had a gun?

[Petah-Petah]

Little Mac felt so right as soon as I picked him up. Maybe it's because I haven't met anyone yet who can counter him properly, but so far I wrecking fighters with him, even managing to get some 1-hit K.O. punches in For Glory.

I'm slowly starting to get the hang of Shulk, although my Greninja still needs some improvement, as I can't seem to time most of his moves properly, especially Substitute. Thank goodness for For Fun mode.

[Shoolis]

I've found that Ganon does a pretty good job of checking Little Mac. He's better in the air (just like everyone else in terms of Little Mac) and super armor means nothing to Ganon's side b. I even nailed a Little Mac with the Warlock Punch after he whiffed a KO uppercut. I think characters who have enough reach to stay out of Mac's range should do well against him.

Don't try projectiles against him though because LOL SIDE B LEAP OVER MISSLES AND PUNCH DUDES
