Why lower the difficulty every time I get a game over? Does Sakurai think that's going to help our egos or encourage us to go on?
I see it as a punishment, and if you continue it's just for extra practice. Your reward gets increasingly worse the more you continue. It would be a good model if classic mode was better balanced and you could consistently improve, but as it is a lot of random shit can happen so I wish there was at least some way to earn extra stocks during a single session.
 
OK so I have just played this game for the first time. I have never played smash before, and it has been years since I played any fighting game. Basically I didn't have a clue what was going on. Can anyone give me some pointers?

I am not looking do for any advanced tips, more like the absolute basics.

How do you win (I think hit people and knock them off screen)
What mode should I be playing for beginner single player?
How do you interact/pick up power ups?
If you are punched off a platform is there someway of manoeuvring in the air to get back on?
Some tips on how to fight!

1. Knock opponents off the screen far enough that they can't "recover" (get back). Don't get knocked off yourself. If you do get knocked off, try to get back.

2. Try going to "Smash" and add a level 1 CPU. Set your player character as Kirby (He is great for learning "recovery" or getting back to the stage). Try mixing it up with various attacks including "normals" (Usually A button) and "specials" (Usually B button).

3. Pick up items by standing on them and pressing the "normal" button (Usually A). Some items work differently. The Smash Ball must be destroyed with attacks. The Star from Mario can just be touched. The Metal Box can either be picked up or attacked.

4. The How To Play video will tell you this. Basically, characters by default have 3 "jumps." One to jump into the air, one mid-air "second" jump, and one up-special "third" jump. First and second jumps are performed by pressing up on the control stick quickly ("smashing" it) or else hitting a jump button (Usually X or Y). The third jump is performed by doing your up "special," usually Up + B.

5. Fight by hitting your opponents with attacks, and evading their attacks. Evading can be done by jumping, rolling, dodging... Check the How To Play video.
 
room up

Edit: I'll practice the 3rd part of my triforce

I had a feeling you were going 3 LoZ mains. You've got 'Dorf down pretty damn good. Freaking choke grab. -_-

I promise I'm not as shitty as I played last night, I'm not used to playing good Zeldas and Ganondorfs. You threw me off guard. :P

XD late nights make for bad games.

Ganon is made to get in people's minds.

I have never won against one online 😢

Yeah the projectiles are annoying. That new dash attack is a killer. My advice is to keep up in Link's business. Combo combo combo. Quick hits.



I found this on google and thought it was relevant:

Tried playing with Wario the other day. Wow, what a surprisingly fun character to use! Love his moveset. Particularly his fart attack that can also be used with his up+b for extra height when it comes to ledge recovery.

Huh, I haven't met any Links online yet but when I played him myself I thought he was horrible. His smash attack is useless. If the enemy is at 200% and you do a full charge, the enemy still won't move an inch. The dash attack is the only decent thing he got going, as the projectiles are easy to dodge. At least from my experience offline, but I'm sure there are some people online who are crazy good with every character.

Forward smash is a dual action attack. The first slash sets up for the second slash. Press A again and you'll be surprised ;)


Edit!!!: HOLD THE PRESS!!! Olimar still has invincibility on whistle? O_O
 
Kyzon, I have to go but thanks for playing.

I hope I can beat you one day 😉

Great games. Keep up the practice and I'm sure you'll take some games off me :)

Big tip. Try to find options other than rolling. A lot of the time I just predict your rolls
 
Man, where is link's killing power?

Ftilt, first hit with the tip & second hit FSmash, Utilt, Uair, Dair Spike, second hit of Dsmash, Usmash is good out of shield but don't rely much on it & Dash attack(sort of okizeme tool too)

these comes to mind whenever I want to kill someone, I am positive with this Link, I mean, he is not brawl's Link :u
if you don't have trouble playing with Zelda & Dorf, specially Zelda, you shouldn't have a hard time mastering Link, keep it up :'D
