Just to make sure I'm understanding it correctly, in For Glory mode you can choose to just do 1v1, right?
Yes, it's its own menu selection. It has an icon called "1on1" and you just click that and you begin searching for a match.

Okay, cool. I figured as much, but just wanted to double check.Yes, you can choose 1v1, 2v2 and some other option that I've never clicked on.
There's a reason why Lucina was chosen over Marth during that locator tournament. She's unarguably better at killing than Marth, and killing is everything in smash IV. Racking up damage is nice, but if you can't score the kills then it's all for naught.

How many minutes are average matches per player in EVO championships where there are tons of players?
I was thinking very rough figures for other games as well, like SFIV. I'm just wondering how long games can run before it causes problems in a tournament format with lots of players -- like, 8-minutes matches for 3 stocks, even if they only run 5-6 minutes, could take quite a while overall.You want full match statistics or just top 8?
top 8 Melee (4 stocks) at Evo 2014 was somewhere between 3:30 and 4:00 on average, though keep in mind this includes a whole bunch of Hbox/Armada snoozers (and the Axe 4-stock, but that's only one match)
I would imagine pools and such would be shorter because more matches are free
also I think Melee should probably be 3 stocks (and definitely Project M lol), and Brawl should've been 2
who played RosalinaYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
If you guys weren't watching that Rosalina vs Bowser match just now on ClashTournaments, you missed out on the meaning of life itself. LMAO
I was watching someone a day or two ago in a tournament, and they still lost a match in the grand finals due to suiciding...ironically going straight down, ironically while using 3-stock match format, ironically on their last stock. The 3-stock format didn't save them from the self-destruct at all, or make them play safer, apparently.
They angrily pointed at their 3DS/3DS XL afterwards so I don't know if a button malfunctioned or what.
Sounds like a 'I moved the control stick down-right so it picked up down instead of right'.
I'm positive that I must not be the first person to ask about this, but has anyone found any Ridley/Mewtwo/Chorus Men (or kids, yknowhatImean) trophies in the game? I know a trophy list has also been posted, so I can peruse that if someone has the link to it. Thanks!
All but Ridley are in 3DS as trophies.
Ridley and Mewtwo in?
That would be way too good to be true.
Fuck it, I'm just gonna put it out there:
(And I'm not saying this to troll fans or keep the hype up or whatever.)
I have a source who has been right about previous leaks and has worked on the European localization of the game. He says he has definitely seen moving models of Dixie, Ridley, Chorus Men and Mewtwo in the game and he's still confident that these four characters can be unlocked by linking the 3DS version to the Wii U version.
Now, I know how outlandish this sounds, and being a game journalist myself I'm taking this with a grain of salt myself, but we're talking about the guy who told me about the Bowser Jr. alts immediately after the ESRB leaks and has never been wrong about other stuff as well. Plus, the whole connectivity thing makes far too much sense, if only to get fans to buy both versions. *insert itprintsmoney.gif here*
Again, I swear on my soul that I'm not trolling. Time will tell. I thought Ridley was never gonna be in, but hey.
You're killing me here, Heath.
You're killing me here, Heath.
This matches the new statements put up on 4chan 0_o
I remember when Spainkiller posted this. I'm starting to think it's true........HYYYPPEEE
It is a glaring absence. However, since Conquest mode just rolled out, I am open to the idea that more of the game might unlock with the US release.Am I the only one who's confused why the 3DS version doesn't have a Special Mode?
I feel like Dixe, Mewtwo and Chorus Kids get brought up a bit too much by "leakers" though, and it's always these three specifically, so I'm keeping an open mind.
The only reason I am skeptical about Spainkiller is that it matches up too well with the 4chan fakes. Fakes we knew were fakes. It is a weird situation.
HA! That's CRAZY!I don't know if this has been posted here yet or not, but:

I am dying of laughter that they actually put that in there, complete with sound effects. Blessed Sakurai.
If I have learned anything about leaks, it is that too good to be true is too good to be true.That 4chan post reads like someone's ideal Smash Bros. wish list. Especially once you get to oddly specific fan-pleasers like "everyone gets their own target test stage."
I want it.
Eh, but why not just show Ridley? That is the only point of confusion for me. Don't you dare respond with that "maybe he wasn't finished" crap.To me, Ridley is the biggest red flag, seeing as Sakurai already "as good as" confirmed him for stage boss. I ignore any rumor involving him.
It's starting to feel like i'm seeing the same few characters over and over again in the twitch streams.
EDIT:
I've never seen any of the following: Mario, DK, Pikachu, Kirby, Bowser, Wii Fit trainer, Pit, Marth, Lucina, Olimar, Lucario, Diddy, Dedede, Zelda, Toon Link, Yoshi, Charizard, Ike, Pacman, Robin, Dr Mario, Game & Watch and Bowser Jr,
I've seen 1 of the following: Samus, Peach, Sonic, Fox, Falco, Ganondorf and Dark Pit.
Even some of the ones that i did see with some frequency like DHD are dropping of but Shiek, Rosalina, Little Mac, Villager and Greninja seem like they're everywhere.

When there are 49 characters in the game and only like 16 people in each tournament, there are bound to be a bunch of characters that go unused.
But there's definitely been way too much Sheik, ZSS, and ROB from what I've seen.
I really want to know what streams you're watching, because the bolded show up a lot (and I've seen nearly all of the ones listed at least once).
I don't know if this has been posted here yet or not, but:

can someone tell me why Nintendo requires everyone to have a copy for local play? Like i have a house with kids why must I buy three copies?

There are three instances where a character showed up to taunt/attack in a video:I feel like Sakurai just showed Ridley's shadow as a nod to the more hardcore players who know who he is. It's like an elaborate "who's that Pokemon."
Just my theory.
You already bought 3 3DSes. Why expect otherwise?can someone tell me why Nintendo requires everyone to have a copy for local play? Like i have a house with kids why must I buy three copies?
Because you need the game to play? Local play would have been hindered anyway. People without the game will probably only be able to play as one character.can someone tell me why Nintendo requires everyone to have a copy for local play? Like i have a house with kids why must I buy three copies?
Because Download Play seems to be impossible.can someone tell me why Nintendo requires everyone to have a copy for local play? Like i have a house with kids why must I buy three copies?
I mean, I guess it isn't technically impossible to make Metal Face playable, but I can't see them giving Xenoblade another rep, and making him playable would kind of involve major Xenoblade spoilersThere are three instances where a character showed up to taunt/attack in a video:
Dark Pit in the Palutena trailer
Metal Face in the Shulk trailer
Ridley in the ND
Either Sakurai is planning on adding multiple stage bosses in the Wii U version, or they will both be playable. What is odd here, I think, is that Metal Face would fundamentally change the Gaur Plains stage in terms of competitive viability. Unless the bosses only show up when you have someone on the GamePad. But how would that work in practice? If someone beats a player-controlled boss, do they really have to sit out the match?
So many unanswered questions. If Metal Face were confirmed as a stage boss, I would give up on Ridley.
Dunno what streams you're watching. I've seen a lot of those characters multiple times.
No Peach though. This is because she su- fine ffdgh I'll spare you the pain.

Wait wait wait, so Metal Face isn't a hazard in the 3DS version?
Something's afoot. Or the 3DS version just can't handle his inclusion for some reason.
So just from playing the 3DS demo, Villager is fun as hell to play. It's hilarious that all of his moves are like "accidental". Villager destroying people by tripping and throwing a pot in their face or by planting and chopping a tree, it's all indirect stuff and that is hilarious to me.
I was most excited for Mega Man but now I really can't wait to piss all my friends of with Villager, so much fun. His final smash is hysterical too.
Nobody's seen him there at the very least
