So been getting characters; got Pit, Marth, and Villager yesterday (Villager was actually pretty tough). Again the side character trophy items are still beyond overpowered. I played my bro yesterday in a 2v2 with computer at level 9 and in one sequence I picked up a character trophy which turned out to be a Street Fighter character. He punches both my bro and his partner on each edge of the map, the Final Smash icon drops straight down like two seconds later to the middle where I punch the hell out of it and get one free KO with Starfox's smash and get another free KO with the street fighter character. Only way I won that match and my bro has done the same to me.

Also how Nintendo distributed the Plant character is beyond dumb.

-Love the inklings! Their move set is awesome, incorporating all the different Splatoon weapons and covering opponents in ink is so fun! It really is true about how all the fighters actually feel comparable to their real videogame counterparts, not just palette swaps in a fighting game.
Splatoon is very unique and I had so much fun using them, but not being able to reload your ink between 1% to 5% is frustrating though. They make up for it by increasing Splatoon's speed - they're up there with Pikachu and Starfox as some of the fastest moving characters. My main character is Starfox and from the very little that I have experienced so far Pit is probably my 2nd and Inkling in third as of now. If there is one I cannot stand, it is Yoshi - hate everything about his move list to the way he moves for survival jumps.

i don't mind the difficulty i'm just curious how to do the glowly hit thing, or like "finish them."

press "special" (b?) without any direction. (if you let the game on and dont touch anything, they show you a demo on how to play. i needed that lol)


but yeah now is falco the asshole who just keeps beating me.

okay. finally got Wario, Isabelle, Little Ken. Luigi and Daisy.
Roy, Lucina, and Richer are like so fast. (I always get Lucina ready for the kill but again. she gets the big freeze frame smash on me. which annoys me).

most times they punch me and i can't get back onto the screen. Diddy Kong just kicked my butt in this regard.

I play with a pro but they don’t tell you what to press, because I guess you can configure the buttons.
So it’s attack, special and block when reading the game turorial.

Still can’t beat falco. I suck. This game is not easy.

Character request: Professor Oak, how fun would that be?

He’s the Pokémon guy right?

It would be cool if he was like another Pokémon trainer but used a different three Pokémon.

I wanna put money on a Marvel fighter showing up. Nintendo producing that Ultimate Alliance game....my bet is a Smash announcement coincides with that game’s release for maximum hype capitalization. Hell Smash already has representatives from Marvel vs Capcom, what’s one more?!

I’d bet on Captain America (least violent, shied would be awesome), Iron Man (legit global icon now and less political than Cap), or Wolverine (was prominently featured in the MUA3 trailer and still iconic).

Yeah thats the one!

And great ideas across the board. I think all three of those superhero options would translate well into the smash formula!

I played at a friend's house the other night.

Richter and Roy feel pretty good to me. Wolf takes some getting used to for me; I haven't played him in 10 years. Still, I'm getting the hang of the play style and find him lots of fun to play. Space with Ftilt and/or Fair, poke with dtilt, use lasers to rack up free damage and to force approaches, combo starter with uthrow, and fair or uair make for some good juggling moves. Nair for ledge traps and bair sweetspot kills at 85%.

I have lost track of the number of challengers I've lost to. At first it was pretty easy but the difficulty ramps up significantly. Incineroar and Zero Suit Samus in particular completely destroyed me multiple times. And it seems the option to re-challenge comes and goes after a certain number of attempts.

The game is starting to get pretty tough! I need to find a way to practice some more advanced techniques. I never use my shield or throw and I know that's something I need to start figuring out how to do. I am also struggling to find a character I am most comfortable with. To be honest they are all pretty strong and I kind of like everyone so far. Young Link and Kirby were characters I used the most in previous games so I'm using them more often but Captain Falcon and Marth are also pretty good. They are all pretty good, haven't yet found any characters I don't like.

There were a few fights in World of Light that were brutal. The Dr Mario fight with the mini snakes, the Isabelle + Robin fight for the Sakura spirit were killer. The Rayman spirit fight too.

There is a world of light stage where you fight Shulk and some other Fire Emblem chick or something and you're defense goes down huge "after a little while" (which is actually like 10 seconds) and it is now sitting all by itself, everything around it has been unlocked except for that one fight. I get destroyed every time and don't seem to have any spirits to counteract they're special powers.

I love that I can leave it and go do a million other stages though. Last one that stood out to me was to capture the Goomba spirit on the classic Mushroom Kingdom stage and I had to fight an army of miniature, brown Donkey Kongs who represented a bunch of Goombas.

I really appreciate the increased challenge as well. So much more engaging and feels so much more exciting than playing either version of Smash 4.

So it’s basically impossible to find a GameCube controller adapter. Nintendo really messed that up. Hopefully they’re producing them like crazy right now.

Getting more comfortable with this whole spirits things. Is it just me or was this never really explained anywhere? It seems it's just kind of like a rock/paper/scissors thing with the support spirits giving some extra bonuses. Some of the "start equipped with x item" spirits are very useful, especially starting off with a bomb or drill. Has helped me win some battles bigtime.

I believe I've finally unlocked everyone. Got the message saying all fighters were unlocked, and I've got a 74 character roster. I'm assuming that's the current available amount?

That's it.

It will be 75 once the Pirhanna Plant is released in Jan/Feb, and then 80 once the entire DLC Fighter Pack is released.
