True, but he's a fairly small, kid-sized robot! I'm still a little surprised by how heavy he is. Regardless, that's good info.
Gotcha, I wasn't completely aware of the difference. Thanks!
Haha, sorry! Just forget you saw my Smashboards link. Yours is probably right!
Right?
Jesus, even Sakurai can't get them? How he doesn't have a full complimentary set of Smash amiibo is beyond me.

You know it's bad when even Sakurai can't get his hands on Rosalina...or Sheik, or Meta Knight, or Lucario. D:

A doubles tourney would be awesome indeed.We really need to organize a doubles tourney somehow.
And sorry I couldn't give you the loss you dearly wanted, I'm rusty of all the excuses. No johns though, your damn metal blades are the worst. :/

Jesus. Right now I'm really regretting being curious and listening to one myself. I'd say he's an idiot, and he is, but more than him just being another dumb Internet troll/good-for-nothing armchair critic, I think he's got some serious, scary, fucked up shit going on in his head. Yikes.
Masked Man
I said wow
Yeah, there's clearly a lot of unpleasant stuff going on inside that twisted little mind of his--and I have no desire to discover the specifics.

Can anyone recommend good sites for Smash 4 media? Replays, Character Guides, General Guides etc?

I wish Smashboards were useful. The Bowser forum hasn't had a post in almost a week.You can find pretty much all of that and more at Smashboards.

Ok looks like it worked. Wish I could see the results.
Neat. I haven't played Falco much in this game but maybe we can do some mirror matches and you can show me a thing or two.If you're looking for a solid Falco, me and Cyberman would probably do you well.
Bowser was so hyped up by everyone too, dude dropped off hard.

I think that, as competitive metagames evolve, it kind of goes like this:
1) Easy, cheap stuff. I think Bowser counts for this at early play just because he punishes and KOs well, and is hard to kill.
2) Fast, advanced stuff. High APM, lots of execution requirements, and speed > all. This is where we are right now, with Diddy and Sheik being very strong and other characters are fading.
3) Character mastery. All viable characters start to see more play as the slow-cookers are mastered by a dedicated few.
A DDD finally came through to win a tournament in NorCal last night (4:39:00ish for the Grand Finals). I was up until 3am watching it. So happy. ;_;
They had a super impressive Little Mac make it to Losers Finals too.

So, break 50,000 blocks in trophy rush eh? Supposing you break an average of 500 blocks per game, that would be 100 games. But on average you're going to get fewer than 500, so really you have to play it over 100 times. With 48 characters, that's at least twice with each. Well, better get crackin'!
I prefer DK with the ground pound, or Palu with Heavenly Light. Custom them to be high attack, so you can break everything in a single hit. I used DK a lot after first, but I prefer Palu now because she can Heavenly Light, then jump, then Heavenly Light, then jump.. and continue doing that, never triggering the lightning ball because she's moving. Trophy Rush can be used for grinding hats and stuff too, so if you still have that, might as well grind.

Since he's low on the tier list he doesn't get as much discussion. When tourney mode comes out and allows the use of custom moves maybe it will pick up mainly discussing Dash Slash strategies.
As it stands if you don't use ZSS, Diddy, Sheik and maybe Meta Knight you'll have a rough time learning anything new.

It's crazy how little I've played this game since it came out. I really think I just blew my wad on the 3DS one. I just have no interest in doing any of the single player content whatsoever. Will play it with friends when they come over and whatnot, but I might just be... done, beyond that.
I had high hopes at first, but I think my SSB days may truly be behind me.

Huh, did I miss this stream last night or was it later than I thought? Odd.
I'm not sure it was well known. It started pretty late (10, or 11pm EST, I think?) and for a long while there were only 70-80 people watching and around 200 by the end. Pretty quality stuff though, first time I've watched. Seems weekly, so I'll tune back in. More high quality tourny streams for me to take in, the better.

Don't say that! Surely there's still some Smash goodness you want to experience. What about Mewtwo and Tourneys? D:
Haha, I'm not the best player but I can gladly show you a thing or two regarding my self-learned Falco.
You should start a discussion and see who bites. Or maybe you can teach us Bowser, teacher Karsticles.

Probably not. Just use Smash Run. It's like the 3DS version's selling point on unlocking custom moves. Because Trash Tour is a shitty mode.

If you are around I can play. My ID is Romancedawn.
Yeah as a DK and Bowser main sometimes it's hard to get good info consistently. Though as a member I should be contributing more, I just never accidentally run into exploits that can become advanced techniques or anything.

I've barely messed with single player at all since unlocking all the characters and stages. I might have to start the Smash Tour idle trick if custom moves become more prominent in stuff like Ranbats here or in tournament mode or whatever. But I have no desire to play any single player content either.
However, an online mode that isn't a bag of shit like Brawl was (most of the time) keeps me around. If I have the time, just a half hour or so a night of For Glory is enough to keep me playing.

Honestly doing challenges and single player modes that isn't training is pointless for me. Since they pretty much hand you the characters for free in both versions.
Watched it now, and ya, this is more evidence to me to believe that DDD is one of the better heavies and a good character in general in the game. He has such good control with the Gordos, his aerials are fast and strong, and that d-smash is crazy strong and sends people out laterally not vertically. Top off his incredible recovery and ability to go off-stage too.
9.0 SP I think is great for practice since the AI if frame perfect on avoidance. FG is great for learning how to read and punish rolling lol.

I'm sure I'll get back into it for a little bit once all that DLC finally drops. Mewtwo was always one of my favorites, and it'll be neat messin around with some fresh custom stages and the tournaments. I doubt it'll last, though.
Every once in a while I'll throw eight Amiibos into a 99 stock fight just to see if they can earn me some custom moves. There are SO many I just don't have. My 3DS collection was getting pretty alright, but the Wii U one is barren. I'm sure I could start building it up if I actually played more of the single player but... I don't wanna. D:
It's a shame you can't earn custom moves steadily just by playing multi/online modes.

Lvl9 CPU unfortunately only helps with fundamentals. Against a human they will never be frame perfect and humans react differently then the CPU who can read your inputs.
There's 3 big weeklies for Smash 4 I'm watching on a regular basis.
Showdown Smash which hosts Smash 4 on Thursdays in San Francisco.
Xanadu on VGBootcamp which hosts Smash 4 on Tuesday in Maryland.
And TourneyLocator which hosts Smash 4 on Friday in the DFW area.
Well, yes, but they help with input control and reaction on your part. AI is terrible for using to practice as playing against others but I think of it more as great practice for your own input and input control.
9.0 CPU are ridiculously frustrating sometimes if you try to fight them like you would a human, but then they are easily cheesed by some stuff. Not sure how great they are for practice in all honesty.
Yep, the later two I'm familiar with. Just found out about the San Francisco tournament, so I'll be tuning in regularly for that. They had a wider variety of characters than I've seen at the others, so it was pretty entertaining. Pac-Man, Dedede, Mac, Yoshi, all going deep.

If I had a CPU Shamrock I would fight against that all the time.

I'm a mod of one of the character sections there.
It's hard when you're using characters that are difficult to use or are just outright obscure. You can only do so much to help develop a character's metagame when there's only a few that could contribute. I can't do much myself since I'm pretty much limited to For Glory which isn't an ideal environment. The best I could is make the section more attractive to get new faces but that's difficult too depending on the character. In my case it's Wario, so yeah. I'm new at this so I'm still trying.
And there's also the lack of tournament footage, which are just as if not more important to gather information. DK has Will, but who else? There has to be multiple representation for more sufficient data.
Anyone wanna 1v1, anyway?

Aye, this I agree with. Back when the Falco board was just getting started, it was basically me and two other guys getting discussion done. Nowadays though it seems plenty of people are offering assistance, which is good. I still worry about more obscure characters, most of all those lacking representation in tourneys.
I would play you Spin, but I won't be free until after 3.

Hey karst what do you think are palutena's best customs?

One quirk of them I noticed is the sheer desperation to avoid attacks when they're in the air, you chase the CPU into the air and they'll be like air dodging machines outside of some of the swiftest aerials, it's annoying yet it can lead to cheese since this extends to the point that they'll happily bugger up their own recovery with a poorly timed air dodge.
Most notably I had a Jigglypuff use up all its mid air jumps right next to the stage edge because the prospect of getting hit by Falcon's up tilt at the edge was that terrifying that it just kept dodging until it dropped.
Honestly, the only way people will be interested in picking up a low teir character to play competitively is when somebody takes that character deep. I guarantee you that more people are taking another look at King DeDeDe after his performance last night.
That gordo play was amazing.

Super Speed and Lightweight are Palu's best customs, easily.
