They gave Jigglypuff a passable rest again, which is all anyone ever wanted. Could have done without the Pound nerf, but whatever. It's Game & Watch who really got ignored, he's pretty much exactly the same as in Brawl, which isn't really a good thing. He could've used a buff to all his aerials or a new aerial to replace the role his parachute from melee served.
7.0 is better since it's much more managable fighting Master Hand/Crazy Hand/Master Core and you still get a decent multiplier bonus.

Game and Watch feels a lot worse to me. I mained him in Brawl and he feels so much more sluggish. Turtle is nerfed too.
BUT he did get a few interesting custom moves so I'll have to mess around with them. The all or nothing side B could be brutal if it can be combo'd into reliably.

Damn, guess I'll be grinding 9.0s now.
I don't feel like Mac is OP, just extremely over used. I was looking through the replays I had saved, of the 23 I had, 21 had Mac in them in a for glory match...
Honestly what grates on my nerves more then anything is move spammers.
Every Charizard User: FWING! FLARE BLITZ!
Every Shulk User: BACK SCRATCH!
Every Sonic User: Neutral B, where he auto targets someone and flies towards them.
Every Bowser Jr. User: Cannon and koopas
Then there is the counter spam...
And you know, none of that is OP either, it's not impossible to win against. It's just annoying as fucking hell. If the user is a Samus or a Mega man, I understand it, it's part of how they play, but when your character has a decent/above average moveset and all you do is spam one attack...well it's annoying.
I feel like quitting every time I see a sonic user because it's so fucking irritating to see the same move spammed the entire match. And you know, they wouldn't do it if it wasn't effective in its own way, which is whats stupid, I thought there was a system to reduce move spam but apparently not.
That being said, seeing Mac/Charizard users go off the cliff is hilarious.

dafuq?
I don't know. But they do it all the time when I play. All I hear is "BACK SCRACH!" (Yes I know its back slash) and see them literally make their way across the map spamming that move.
I mainly play 2v2 for glory so I guess my problems are highlighted a bit more.
Why
I haven't really got a chance to check his customs, maybe they'll help. The only thing that really stood out was his new walking animation (which is great), everything else seemed pretty much the same, though I think his nair has more knockback on it now. Then again I haven't had much time to play around with him, I've been experimenting with newcomers a lot.

Anyone know that if you choose random for a mode you will always get a character you haven't done it with or you can get someone you already have?

Peach plucks a Bob-omb with her Down B. Flamethrower blows up said Bob-omb before she has a chance to do anything.
Any charavter guides for smash out there? I am new to smash and am honestly having a hard time landing proper smash hits. Other than that, dealing damage hasn't been much of an issue.
I have to say though, the controls on the 3DS are not good. Why isn't there an option to use the D-pad vs the analog stick? Pulling off most of anything would be so much easier with the d-pad, and the lack of a C-stick wouldn't hurt as much.
So, is it better to try and understand smash on the Wii U a more smarter option?

Finishing Classic on 9.0 was far easier than I expected. At first I had trouble with the sword form but if you manage to dodge some of its strong attacks, you can easily defeat it. Generally Master Core is a challenging fight at first but when you know its pattern, it's very easy.
Almost done with the challenges too, but I have stuff like completing Smash Run, Classic, All Star and some other modes with all the characters... This is the only reason I hate that Smash 3DS has so many characters...

Where's that from?
Little Mac trailer.
I disagree with this.
She is just easier to use.
I feel like the best Marth can beat the best Lucina. His sweet spots are crazy lethal.
That's wrong on so many levels
I disagree. Marth with a side smash sweet spot can KO well below 90% even against heavy characters (tried one to Dedede). And his Shield Break when sweet spotted can easily destroy shields even without charging. Lucina is simply the easier to use while Marth is more technical.

Yeah. there is some value in that Lucina is more "reliable", but someone who can sweet spot well will do well with Marth.
Not sure how I feel about his range nerf (again)....as a Melee Marth main it's hard for me to go back, plus I don't want to throw off my Melee game if I ever go back to it.
It's why I used Lucas in Brawl instead.TheFLYINGManga_Ka

And had no idea Bowser Jr's alt are the Koopa kids?
That's like more characters right there!

The range nerf really hurts Marth, but overall I think he's still a very viable character in this game, just with a different mindset on how he is used. And I really do enjoy it when a sweet spot smash connects to deliver a comeback KO.

Are you trying out Shulk?
I'm actually not so bad with Shulk! I played him a lot yesterday.

If it works, it works. This isn't an action game where style matters.

I'm in the same boat so I'd love to see some character guides as well.
So far I've enjoyed these video guides for mario, metaknight and captain falcon, maybe you'll like them?
Thanks, will also wait for more if they will be posted.
I guess what's also important is some guidlines to the advanced techniques of smash.

So I finally went online so time to see my Smash Power levels. Oh yes my 4.3m on homerun contest with Charizard has a power level of 56,370! (I'm never going to play homerun contest with Charizard again) My best power level was Smash Run with 1.4 million (thanks Wario).
I also found out how to see who had not gotten first in Smash Run. The vault. Captain Olimar...should have known...even then it took me 2 runs to actually win with him.

Plus Roy is playable.
Just hold it instead. If you can just see the next slot you'll get that one.
How do you see your Matchmaking points /MMR?

Pacman the worst though lol. Anyway im sure my fear will be alleviated with the Wii U version. The 3DS controls are permitting me from doing some things and slowing me down like hell.

Wow, I thought I sucked at BJ, but apparently so does everyone else.
Got a garbage classic score compared to my other 9.0s but still retained a similar GSP.

That's about all I've got in me for tonight! Thanks for the battles man, I would say 'GG' but we both know that you thoroughly took me to school!! Wow, I have a lot of improving to do. Thanks again, and gaaahhhh! Your Robin is hard to kill.

I don't know from what place you exist, but where I'm from, cradling a baby and playing a competitive videogame are two distinctly seperate acts.
Also I am one human being, not many.
