Is it the way he moves that makes him weird? I want to have him in my rotation.

His reflector was nerfed to hell, at least.
Now it's only useful as, you know, a reflector. Like it was originally intended. As opposed to being one of the best attacks in the game.
I dunno, 49 Snake clones doesn't seem so bad
On Zero's stream a little while ago, he was going through stages and seemed quite alright with stage hazards. The only stages he was instantly dismissing were ones with:
- Walk-off stages (people camp towards the edges so they can get easier kills, plus removes all important off ledge play)
- Stages that grant buffs (obvious)
Which seems fine to me. I don't think most players are opposed to hazards as long as they are predictable enough to be skillfully dodged.
His jumps are hard to control.

The game would finally have a advance wars rep at least.
Sounds like you're either connecting to people who have bad connections or you have a bad connection -- additionally, distance is a factor as well. I've been watching streamers playing For Glory all week so far and most of their matches have been lag free.
Are you playing in For Fun? FFAs I've heard lag more or have a higher potential to lag because of all the connections involved + items and stage hazards.

Whatever this "Smash for Wii U is Smash 5" thing is I'm not buying it.
I think most people would love my roster, the problem is it would take too long to set up (I believe the next Smash game should have an entire row of third-party characters, as an example)
Also I don't like Lucario so he'd get cut.

Do you live in Japan? If not, that may be part of the issue with the lag.

Don't play with items with friends.
Got it.
A entire row of third party characters?! Sign me up for that shit. Sakurai your replacement has arrived.
only if there's snake

Ah I remember reading somewhere that his short hops are like full jumps.
I don't think it's the latter, as I've never hard problems with other games, but you might be right about their connections. I really can't figure it out, but it's actually comparable to Brawl's online so far. Ugh.
The stage list in this one sucks. Most non-walk-offs have a horrible mechanic for competitive play. The yellow devil shows up too frequently and flying man is one if the most one sided, exploitable, intrusive and broken stage hazard I have ever seen in smash.
Some are cool though, like the arena.

You seem to be the only person having lag
Yup, in Tokyo. Never had a problem with my internet connection either; it's always been seamless.
That's the most frustrating part!

hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
The black lightning is my favorite touch.
I've had flawless connections and I live in the states.

There is Snake. There is also Simon Belmont (ideally some third-parties get more than one rep).
I should write this roster up.
I'm in the UK ^^

It better.
My friends haven't called me out yet about it but they will. I told them all today.

The EU eShop has a demo release date and time of the 19th at 8am GMT. That's 10am in Central Europe.
I hoped for a midnight, or at least a 2am release of the demo, but still seven and a half hours to go.

That's too bad. If it was me, I think I could get 90% approval rates if Nintendo would give me good schedule and budget ratio for Smash 6.

Wonder if they'll hit NA and EU at the same time.
You already know what to do for my satisfaction.

If you have a Windows laptop available, connect it via WiFi and enter the following in a command prompt:
/ping router'sIP -t
router'sIP should obviously be replaced with your router's IP address. The point of doing this is to see if the WiFi's stable. If it's stable then you should get a stream of 1ms pings with the occasional 2 or 3. If it's not stable then there will be high numbers sometimes and you won't have a smooth experience.
If you can't get your router's IP then you probably aren't playing at home. Play at home because it will be much more stable than anywhere that a lot of people can use the WiFi, which includes things like work places and McDonald's.
If you're outside of Japan then you are going to get into a ton of matches with a high input delay because the pool of players close to you that are online at any given time will be extremely small so you won't get paired against them too often.

no you wouldn't, people would complain that Sakurai would've done it better even if you just implemented his roster idea
I don't have access to the chat but I will do a few.
Looks essentially the same, except for the flutter jump. That ending was pretty great, in typical Luigi fashion.
Looks like I'll main the green machine again. For now. Good thing I won't have to change my playstyle too much.
This guy didn't use enough aerials, though.
Short answer is YES. People trying to "theory" their way through stage bans and expected meta are doing no service to anyone. Don't know why everyone is in such a rush to make the game "legit". Its the early days of Smash, keep the flicking levels in. We'll ban it later when factors dictate as such. Reasons why we banned a stage in Melee or Brawl may not exists in Smash 4. So test them out!
Trust me when I say Magicant is awful and will be banned.

I don't mean to say that every level should be in. But Smash has a history of being much more open stages wise at the beginning of each game's new scene. Eventually that list gets shrunk down as actual problems arise due to actual matches being played. No need to speed up to the ending. I don't want 20XX just yet.

Year of Luigi still going lol
Are there any good Link players with videos up at the moment? He's really fun to play in the demo but I'd like to see what other players have been able to do with him in the full game. I've only been able to find Toon Link videos in my own searches, or random videos of specific things like his final smash. Thanks in advance.
Combo at 1:10 was stupid lol

So we're anywhere between 3-10 hours from the release of the demo? I hope its 12 ET like most game releases, but this is just a demo so Nintendo may sit on it a while longer
New luigi is looking good!
