STRIKE!

 

[DaBoss]

Need to go up that slope to auto sweetspot consistently.

4-0 for newcomers

 

[Moonlight]

Man, that was a solid as hell game. If Smash 4 has anything going for it, it's the damn cool edgeguards.

 

[J@hranimo]

Man, Metroid still can't crawl

 

[Blizzard]

Well then how does one execute a Vector influence and not a directional one?

I think any pad input (at least, that you're holding before/at the start of your launch) does it.

Hold in the direction you're flying, you fly further. Hold in the opposite direction, you don't fly as far.

 

[LegendofLex]

I can already tell that I'll be ditching this version for the Wii U version (except when I need to treat my Smash fix on the go) once it comes out. I have a really hard time focusing on the characters due to the small screen. =(

Maybe I'll consider getting a New 3DS XL to help remedy that. Never owned an XL Nintendo handheld before. I'm a little opposed to paying the likely cost of entry, though...

Vectoring replaces DI in Smash 4. Just push the in the same or the opposite direction you're getting knocked. Will make you go further/not as far.

Metroid can't pocket either.

 

[Boss Doggie]

also I think the pun doesn't even exist in Japanese?

they exist in Japanese since they know what four and for is.

See Nichijou

 

[Makai]

Pocket is about to become the single best special move in this game isn't it?

Especially with startup invincivility.

 

[DaBoss]

I think ZSS won't be give Robin enough space for Robin to do his thing.

 

[Azure J]

Keep on spinning, keep on winning.

"Dey spinnin'!"

Man, Metroid still can't crawl

I'm actually surprised that they didn't go in a Project M direction with Samus and make her have legit dodge rolls (emulating Other M's sense move) and a crawl with the Morph Ball.

 

[ffdgh]

Samus is gonna win another tourney isn't she...

 

[Beats]

That jab combo ender did a lot of knockback when Robin was at +160% and ZSS was only at around 50-60. lol

 

[Mistle]

How come I haven't seen much Bowser since the release? He was super popular at the official tourney

 

[Revven]

Dat rage mode in effect.

 

[Next]

reflet player is terrible...

 

[Azure J]

Zero Suit Samus is soooo good. Great knock back on everything, really impressive ground speed, good air mobility + that crazy command flip, and reach with the paralyzer whip. Making her a Kick Chick did her wonders.

 

[Revven]

People know he's good already and people want to see if there are other good characters so everyone's trying different chars. Simple as that really. Bowser players still exist, though.

Lots of matches with Bowser starting around the 25:40 mark

 

[Beats]

It's apparently their first time playing according to the commentators.

 

[DaBoss]

Welp.

Double welp.

 

[ffdgh]

And suddenly...dramatic lag.

 

[Azure J]

Bayonetta 2 mode confirmed. All this Witch Time.

 

[DaBoss]

That was good VI and then bad VI on the Elfire lol.

Wow, the ending...

 

[Mistle]

makes sense. was worried some major weakness was found, haha. or he was nerfed from e3

Lots of matches with Bowser starting around the 25:40 mark

thanks!

 

[ffdgh]

Dat stage assist ko.

 

[Next]

that stage is looking interesting

Hahaha all the BANNED's in the chat

 

[Valus]

I was all excited to see a good Robin but he got rekt.

 

[J@hranimo]

Man seriously! Just give her that and I'd be fine with it.

what happened

 

[Beats]

Everyone seems to use Hood Mac.

 

[ffdgh]

Looks like this mac knows not to leave the ground lol.

...or not.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

little mac hyyyyype

...or not.

lol

 

[BY2K]

Dark Pit haters rejoice.

 

[Moonlight]

Man, Little Mac is so cool to watch.

 

[Next]

it'd be awesme if little mac ended up being good, but I dunno if it's possible with that recovery.

 

[DaBoss]

The down air on Mac seems to be somewhat useful.

Spoiler

what happened

Lumiose City stage transition screwed over the Robin player's recovery. They tried to aim inward and land on the stage without remembering that whole "you have downward momentum when the screen moves upward" thing. This led to Robin dropping to his death after having his head clip through the stage.

 

[Delio]

Mac looks like such fun.

 

[ffdgh]

Should have stuck with mac.

 

[PreyingShark]

That wireless interference

 

[Shamrock7r]

I see Awestin is in the tourney. How is his his Ness doing?

 

[BY2K]

What's up with the lag? They are playing local, c'mon.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

The lag is making the match even more epic.

 

[Next]

maybe the next 3DS iteration will add ethernet ports?

 

[Alfredo]

Remember link cables? Kinda wish they were still a thing, lol

 

[Valus]

The lag is making the match even more epic.

Inorite. Such bad commentators.
