I still can't believe that's a normal. It looks ridiculous.
At least it's not her u-tilt, like I speculated. That would be totally bonkers.

Personally I'd prefer Mother 1 Giegue over Porky.

Hmmm...I really like the idea of her being a spacing character; fits her goddess, away from the battlefield approach. Hope this pans out.
Yeah, from what they've shown, she really feels powerful like a freakin' goddess should. Hopefully Rosalina isn't jealous.
Seriously Rosalina, get a better Final Smash.

FINALLY! A Palutena update! I wonder why it took so long.
That up smash has crazy reach, though the fact that those hit by it don't flinch makes me think it's not OP.
Really, calling anyone OP or assigning tiers before the games are out is just the dumbest thing.

I believe the non-flinching move and the up smash are two different moves, but you're still right about the OP thing. Can't really know what's OP until we get our hands on the game.
I think the up-smash causes flinching but the special attack does not, unless I'm not understanding correctly.
I agree it's too early to deem anyone overpowered, though.

Up-smash, not up-tilt.
Please, I don't want to entertain the thought of that move being a tilt. It'd be like Snake 2.0 lol.
I caught my typo and corrected it before you posted.

i think the up smash causes slight flinching as well since we kind saw dk flinch when hit by it in her trailer (by how much though is interesting also i have this feeling that the hit box on it might not be as big (vertically anyway) and can easily be rolled away from

B - War Horn - Like Falcon Punch, a really powerful move with a long startup. Unlike Falcon Punch, it's an area of effect attack that hits all around.
Up B - Throwing Anchor - He throws an anchor in an arc.
Down B - Phase Locket - Shovel Knight becomes invulnerable for three seconds. Takes about a minute to recharge after you use it.
Side B - Mobile Gear - A projectile that rides along the ground. If you hold B, Shovel Knight will hop on. If you're in the air, this means you get your jump and double jump back - but it can only be done once in the air, of course.
A - A basic thrust of the shovel.
AAA - Repeated thrusts with the shovel.
Running A - Shovel Knight thrusts his shovel into the ground and plows through the opponent. This attack hits multiple times.
Forward Tilt - Shovel Knight slashes his shovel like his charge attack.
Down Tilt - Shovel Knight smacks his shovel against the ground, causing a spark.
Up Tilt - Shovel Knight thrusts his shovel upwards, like in his victory pose.
Forward Smash - Shovel Knight digs up a gem. The longer you charge, the bigger the gem, the more damage it does.
Down Smash - Basically Villager's down Smash. He digs left and right and buries opponents in the ground.
Up Smash - Shovel Knight twirls his shovel above him, hitting multiple times.
Neutral Air - A basic thrust, much like his standing A.
Forward Air - An overhead swing with both hands. Spikes.
Down Air - Shovel drop. Works much like Link's down thrust.
Up Air - An upwards thrust.
Back Air - Shovel Knight spins around and swings his shovel behind him.
I've spent too much time thinking about this. It just makes me sad that it won't happen.
I think Mother 1's Giegue should be used as a Boss Hazard on an earthbound/mother stage, and as an assist trophy I would personally like The Kraken or Fassad.
I hope earthbound/mother gets more love in this version of smash

Wow what a Smash attack! At first I immediately thought it would be something that would get abused like crazy. But then I was reminded of Snake's extremely vertical up Smash. His isn't in one big piece but that move certainly didn't break Snake for me, it was all his too good to be true tilts that had the power of a thousand Bowser Bombs!
How does Villager's up smash go? It looks like a rip of Snakes if you ask me.

In hindsight, metakinght was technically nerfed somewhat in his brawl appearance lol. No full screen mach tornado and sword beams.

It's not the same. Snake's launches a projectile vertically. Villager's just makes an explosion appear above him.

MEWTWO!!!!
Today's Update
Pic of the day. I talked about an attack with a far reach in yesterday's post, but it didn't compare to Palutena's up smash attack! No joke, it reaches really far. It reached so far in this shot that even the rocketbarrels got blown up.
That said, if we're talking just about range, even that can't beat Palutena's power, Heavenly Light. It has quite a damage field. However, this is a no-flinch attack, which means the opponents won't react to the damage!
The uberest.

Palutena seems like a character who is better suited in a FFA setting rather than a 1v1 sort of deal. Course time will tell as we find out more about her.
Randomly found this video and thought SmashGAF would love it. 739 Mew2King Edgeguards starring Marth.

The fuck kind of logic is this. Leakers don't always have every single detail, and even if they do, they're not obliged to disclose everything. If he had specifically said that Rosalina wouldn't be in, or if he claimed to know the full roster without Rosalina in it, then he would've been wrong.
The original post by Sal Romano only said "My unlikely predictions". You've got to remember that there are actually two guys here: Sal, who is the one relaying the information to us, and some unknown inside guy that Sal is getting the information from. It's entirely possible that Sal only knew partial information at that point, and was just predicting based on what he knew. In any case, all of those characters have since been confirmed, so really not a good reason to throw the leak into suspicion.
It's exactly why you just said - it's because of Greninja's development history. If you don't want to believe it then it's on you.
Does this really make any difference? He said Miis would be in the game, and they are. That's +1 point to validity.
Lol, in what universe is Shulk a safe guess? There was even a guy so confident that he had no chance that he offered to suck people's dicks.
At the end of the day, there's much, much more evidence supporting Sal's legitimacy than against it. You don't just get 8 characters right without being wrong a single time by educated guessing or whatever.

Sure, go believe your Gematsu Bible if you want to. That's perfectly fine with me. All I am opposing is 2 things:
a) Constantly treating the Gematsu leak(s) as if the content was already 100% officially confirmed and
b) Spreading misinformation to other people based on that rumor, essentially saying it's 100% officially confirmed.
That's literally all I'm trying to relay. Take it with a grain of salt. Don't take it for granted and don't repeat your beliefs to others as if they were true.
Beelzebufo was being a smartass and said that there's 0% chance of the leak being wrong, so I stated which details it got wrong, and which details were ambiguous. Again, the very first leak post that was made (E3 showing Mega Man, Trainer, Mac, Villager, Pac-Man and Mii) was legit, even though the scheduling apparently was changed. However, that leak was, technically speaking, wrong. You can make up excuses for why it isn't wrong, but whatever excuse you make, it's still wrong. And believe me, I was one of the biggest vouchers for the leak back when it first appeared.
Also, come the fuck on. "Pokemon from X/Y" is not a confirmed character guess. If that person knew what characters supposedly were going to be shown at E3 2013 but not later on, then how the fuck would he know about Greninja's development process? And if he knew about the development process, then why didn't he tell us about more characters (including the omitted Rosalina)?
Palutena, Chrom, Mii and "Pokemon from X/Y" are the safest character guesses one can make. And Shulk is a character from one of the very few new Nintendo IPs that were released between Brawl and now. It's also a safe guess to assume there's some Xenoblade involvement.
I will believe the "leak" when Chorus Men are confirmed. Until then it's just a rumor. And you should treat it as such.
Palutena still looks too wishy-washy to me. Goddess or not, I don't like her gimmick since it doesn't exactly look like there's a lot of balance in it, and her moves look a bit too ridiculous for my tastes.
I hope her Up Smash leaves her with Lucas-tier punishable properties.

I am not giving the 100% label to that leak yet.
And I do not think there is anything wrong with questioning it, or refuting it. Maybe if it predicted some veteran returns I would give it more credibility. However, I will admit not all those predictions are safe, if those were random guesses then some of them were pretty ballsy.
Anyway, I think it has been pretty accurate thus far, but we'll see what happens from here.
There's always a catch.
Unless you are Meta Knight.
Her up Smash being a Pikachu down B variant is hardly OP. Too soon to tell whether she is or not, though.

The king has spoken.
No one dead if it's not a killmove.
Until the Chorus Kids are revealed......even though my gut is telling me they'll be unlockable. Until then, it's a very likely scenario.

Still might not be a kill move. We don't really know.
Well liquid DID compare it to Lucas' s Up-Smash, which iirc kills quite easily...
His body is ready.
Just realized I have the right avatar for that. Mind blown. It was dicks all along.

Pokemon from X/Y makes sense because we've determined that the leak was from early on in development
Yes, with a capital F
Rosalina being in and not mentioned just means that there might be newcomers outside of the leak, doesnt disprove the leaks
...Did nobody ever avatar quote you on that until now? That is mindblowing.

My bro got a Wii U, I must say people really exaggerated the "gamepad is uncomfortable!"
Honestly felt as a legit controller. Maybe the tablet shape made people perceive it as a tablet and thus made it feel uncomfortable for them?

I agree it's a great controller. Still it's definitely not the controller for a fighting game you'll play for hundreds of hours.
