I don't have the money for a Switch, but eventually I'll get this game. My dream character addition would be Isaac as Golden Sun was a big part of my childhood. I highly doubt that'll ever happen, though. I also legit want to see Waluigi in it. I unironically love him and have ever since Mario Party 3.

Ganon's main way of attacking when he's got a bit of something going on is in the air, considering his air game has been kinda buffed in Ultimate. I can do the Flame Choke to Down Smash/Down Air/Down B/Down Whatever, but my air game is terrible. Any tips?

I just do a lot of air dodges and spam my Nair. But, the Warlock Punch's Super Armor works in a pinch, if you're getting comboed in the air.

Me too, actually. We can power the ship with all of the ridiculous things that have ever been suggested on NS (including this one)! And all so we can play Smash together!

No one can beat Cloud's weeb factor.

You can't get any more weeb than Cloud. The DBZ hairstyle, an impractically massive sword... he's the ultimate weeb character.

When I see Cloud picked against me, I'm scared. Because I know a part of me will have to contend with the strongest powers of Japanese anime/video game culture...

Cloud is scary

I guess the weird aura effects surrounding him when his limit breaks is the power of friendship/fighting spirit.

Eh, Mars is nice, but everything you own will turn red from the soil and the stains are almost impossible to get out.

Can we meet on Titan or Ganymede instead?

This explains why I keep losing to him

It’s not that I’m a bad and a total noob, it’s because the Cloud player called the Heart of the Cards. He believed in friendship and righteousness. I fought alone and only for my gain, that’s why I lost.

So I was playing some Smash online today and just realized something. Whenever I respawn during an online match, I stand still till the invincibility wears off, ensuring that I have no advantages when we meet in combat; however, I have not yet met anyone else who does this, even if I have already paid this courtesy to them.

I guess I'm just strange or something. :lol:

Had a brain storm:

If Sora gets in smash and disney characters get in as spirits.

Mayor assistant Dawn Bellwether and Mayor Lionheart spirit fight.
Isabelle and Incineroar for the spirits respectively.

It could also work as a Classic mode fight for Sora:

Just give him a bunny hood Zero Suit Samus (Judy) and Fox as teammates (Nick).


Also if Daddy Sakurai unveils Sora as the Second Smash dlc the eve of or the day of KH3's release, that would either be as awesome or more awesome then the Joker reveal.

well don't feel too bad

it just means that you fight with Honor

as for me? I didn't even realise there WAS an invincibility period until 10+ games in. People would respawn and then attack me without getting hit and I would lose points for nothing... I was assuming they somehow blocked everything or somehow their inputs had Priority because of the way they were pressing the moves.

It wasn't all that different from regular combat because in regular combat I rarely managed to block or counter anything to begin with :)

Now THAT's feel bad...

So is it normal to feel sad and angry when your main goes from 1,900,000 gsp to around 290,000 gsp?


I started doing 1v1's. This one guy was fighting me normally and then just stopped playing. Wanting to see if I was good at 1v1s normally I keep playing them.
Went on a loss streak and felt like shit.
