Do any of yall know what the ruleset is in For Fun mode online? Is it just two minute matches with items? If so... 
This will be my first Smash game, so I'm gonna be practicing a bit
Watching these tournament guys is already showing me how much depth this game has beyond button mashing.
It's annoys me that even with the extra range, fludd is still relatively useless. I Hope scalding fludd and high pressure fludd are more useful.

Tomodachi Life seems fine to me. As a neutral even.

Yes, that is the rule set I heard it has. Someone with the game could probably actually check to make sure but I don't think that has changed since Brawl.
Instantly banned because of the Flying man who assists the first character to touch him.
You should check my post between 2012 to 2013. (Maybe after 2011). Also I did support DHD during Brawl.
As long as I can remember Heath on here, he's been talking about the Duck Hunt Dog. I thought it was cute little dream...but dammit look at where we are now lol. A part of me still can't believe.
Awesome to hear. One of my only gripes with Marth was that he didn't have a ground Smash attack that would quickly cover both sides like Foxes Dsmash or even Mario's Dsmash. Lucina won't have that problem.

Was brinstar counter pick in any of the games it's been in? The acid doesn't really seem to be a big deal
Is the purpose for spacing? It's really useless and it doesn't even push opponents back that easily; it's highly punishable.

Yeah, Smash can get DEEP. Practice with the demo, and try and learn off-stage play too. It's very heavy in this game, and not to mention satisfying.
Because you want Charged Shot to be a killing blow when you actually use it. Using it too much will make it knockback like a kitten.
The way I see Megaman, as shitty as Metal Blade, Crash Bomb and Leaf Shield are, you have to use them to constantly barrage your opponent with projectiles (as well as Neutral A/Forward A/NAir) and slowly dwindle them down to killing range.

On a side note, did anyone else think that Birdman "plays" pretty much identically to how Hawlucha might play, haha
I remember from playing with friends (N64 and NGC Smash games) that I usually had no way to come back to the stage. Well no wonder since I didn't had the game at home to practice. But that's certainly something I need to learn.

We agree on one thing here, friend: fuck Miis.
I have spent a good 10 hours playing Megaman, and I think you are misreading him.
Forward Smash has less range and more startup than Metal Blade and Crash Bomb. Metal Blade can be given 8 directional motion, so you can fire it diagonally up and such. No other character has a projectile like that. Crash Bomb is mediocre, but good filler when you can't use Metal Blade. Also, you can use both while jumping, which you can't do with F.Smash.
Mega Buster can set up throws and it a great harassment tool. No other character can move forward while also spamming projectiles.
Do you know what Megaman am so has down smash for ground moves? It doesn't matter anyway, since his fair is fantastic and covers everything.
Rush combo breaks right now.
Dair spikes as a projectile. Link and Mario have to get up close for theirs.
Nair locks opponents to the ground for P shooter followups.
In my experience, bair is better for jumpins, while fair is better for spacing.
Yes, it was a CP in Melee for awhile as well as Brawl until in both instances characters could abuse the stage for easy KOs which led to it getting banned. I forget the specific characters, though.

That Ness combo.
Characters like Little Mac and his Side B will serve as good recovery moves to often return to the stage, but to be safe, stick to Up B's.
A good way to practice is set up a group local match in the demo with a CPU, and play with the sandbag in the waiting room.
If you need to practice returning to the stage uninterrupted, that's your best choice.

Ness seems great despite the negative comments about him.

Ness looking quite powerful
Thanks for the tips man. I'm gonna be spending some time with the demo untill release. Already ordered it a few days before the demo, the hype is real.

I can't watch the tourney now, but could anyone provide the inevitable uploaded Youtube links (or Twitch timestamps...those can be replayed after the stream ends, right?) later so I can watch the Ness footage later? Thank you.
From what I've heard, a lot of veterans have been rebuilt from the ground up, even if they technically have the same movesets the playstyle is totally different.
This has led to some old players coming in, trying to use familiar characters in the same way, and thinking they're shit because it's not what they expect.
Alright, going to stream again. I'll take requests if you want me to try anything out. Would also like to play against gaffers.
