It seems people are missing out on some functions of the Demo. In case you're not aware.
1. You can add a fourth CPU player if you want. Just enable him on the bottom right-screen. Alternatively, you can also make it 1 on 1 by disabling a CPU player. OR, you can have 4 CPUS fight by turning your slot into a CPU.
2. You can play on the Final Destination version of battlefield. Press X on the Stage Select Screen to toggle between regular battlefield and final destination battlefield.
3. Items are turned OFF on Final-Destination Battlefield.
4. The game saves/ keeps track of the number of coins earned. See how many coins you have thus far by going into the vault.

Interesting. Either way, it sounds very manageable.

Any place to go to learn about the custom moves? Any info on customs for Bowser?

That was really exciting!
Yoshi seems really good. He can take quite the beating

Also reminds me of how some of the people from GAF played back in the Brawl days (when we managed to have a good connection for tournaments). Plus its just all around interesting since people are picking different characters for the most part.

Yeah, I wouldn't be worried. Watching the stream, I couldn't see any issues or anything. Robin looks great!
Pretty sure the verdict is to allow them until they're proven to be broken or problematic. At least, that's what I've heard from some of the prominent TOs on the EC (east coast of the US).
People live way too long in this;\

That Sheik vs Yoshi fight was... not good. Really illustrated the problem with the huge blast zones. Lots of powerful hits that hit them waaaaay out there, takes them a little while to get back... and then someone else gets hit waaaay out there, and then gets back... and it's just a really boring single hit back and forth at high percents that just refuses to end. Blast zones really aught to be smaller.

I thought it was really exciting watching them fly around, with the tension of waiting for someone to make a kill.
They're 2-3 minutes.
Yeah, this MU looks more like the norm on how long characters are going to live for unlike ZSS vs Palutena which was much faster because those characters have KO setups and their KO options actually seem to KO early than most of the cast.

But half the time was just watching them fall back to the stage.
to find out if they are bannable. Most tourney players want to give them a fair shake before just outright banning them. Maybe some moves will be banned, or it will be such a mess of balance that they will just ban all custom business.

Blast zones don't seem too big to me. They used the same moves over and over, got stale knockback. Also they'd launch from the opposite side of the stage. There really wasn't a problem there.
They're worse compared to Brawl/Melee. It's like every stage in Smash 4 3DS is Dreamland 64. :/
Second match was more promising. Yoshi's Island seems to have better blast zones.
Brett also seemed to have a better idea of what his kill move was (uair).

you mean 5 minutes on the last one?
I meant compared to the other stages. Yoshi's Island seemed ok, at least vertically.
There are self-destructs, but it looks like in 1v1 it gives points like a KO, but in 3 or 4-man FFAs it doesn't.
Seriously.
It's hard to even watch at this point. A simple 2 stock match takes forever.

Huh? They're usually super comprehensive and tend to update the videos if they do make a mistake
Also, I just checked and Jeff was in that video...

Question is, are the coins good for anything in the Demo?

No, I mean 2-3 for the majority of them.
Having people regularly get the black smash lightning off-stage and survive doesn't seem big to you?

SHIIIIIEEEK!!!! That's what I'm fucking talking about! SOOOO GOOOD!
Yeah, that was disgusting. Horizontal blast zones are much more noticeably wide than the vertical ones, especially with the ledge changes making it easier to recover.

last one was also over 4 minutes, dunno which matches you're watching at this point

The black smash lightning may be affecting your judgment of what could kill or not. The effect doesn't mean the move will kill, just that it was really powerful.
