Now who was I arguing with a few weeks ago? 2 or 3 people were convinced because of the E3 demo we would only have a single victory pose for each character this time around. I love when people make such absolute statements only for the other possibilities to become reality. It humbles the know it alls for the following Smash title and it's hype session.
I AM HYPED YES
Same characters, same stage, same tips.

My net seems to be somewhat fixed, what good streams are live?
A newcomer announced this week, was supposed to end this friday which would have been rather fitting since the chances for a newcomer announcement that day are pretty high, but Skullhydra convinced me to make wednesday the deadline instead ;_;
I wanna know something that hasn't been touched on (and I haven't seen videos yet lol) how are the loading times? The E3 demo actually puts you on a waiting room before every single match, -and- loads yet again in a screen showing you the controls; has that been toned down here?

"Further in advance of our release date than japan received it relative to their release date."
Fingers crossed.

Gust Bellows is pretty ...powerful.
Also, got Samurai Goroh in my game now too.

It doesn't play like Smash 64 at all for me, other than the fact that I'm struggling to get used to the controls after playing with GCN controllers lol.
Villager almost KOing someone at 0% with pocketed charged bowling ball.
Villager banned from teams. :>

What does it play like?
God bless post-release patches.
If it ends up being broken then I'm sure they will fix it.

Things are different this time compared to Brawl's days. There will definitely be patches since there's gonna be DLC.

Dat Melee nostalgia
I'd probably say for me it's 60% brawl but with a few of the bad decisions removed, 10% stuff from Melee and 64 with the rest being it's own quirks, if the game is quantifiable like this in any way whatsoever.
Game will probably go down to 40% Brawl for me once we get to try out all the characters as well as throw custom moves into the mix.
Gust Bellows is indeed broken. So easy to gimp recovery at low percent, and throwing it can make it sometimes spin around like crazy and just randomly gust out wind in different directions
Daybreaker is pretty powerful, KO'd at low percentages, you basically aim it like Marth's FS
Bob-ombs when walking around can sometimes be picked up, sometimes running into them/hitting them makes them explode. I noticed picking up Electrode seems easier too?
Cuccos seem to be 30FPS
S-Flag takes a decent amount of time to give you +1, wasn't really an exaggeration when someone here says it takes like 5 seconds

Yeah, that shit was fucking insane. There's a reason they're only playing with Villager now smh. I hope Nintendo's down for post release patches to characters though. That bowling ball needs to be nerfed.
And I just realized if this is anything like reflectors in gaining power, just pass the balling ball twice between villagers.
BANNED. :v
Seriously though someone should test this if they are able. Get two villagers make them pass charged bowling balls between each other and see if it's instant afhakfhgjdkflsfjlsflslfaldkal.
I prefer watching 1v1. It's great for getting a feeling of a characters true potential.
no it's not, not when we are so hungry for new info

Villager's Pocket move has some hilarious properties. He used Mega Man's own side smash against him and killed at like 40% lol.
Played about seven or so match as Villager.
+All of his moves are simply hilarious. If you love Animal Crossing you will get a laugh out of how many references they manage to pack in.
+Tanooki Villager is too adorable for words.
+His moves have a lot of knock back. Even his bowling ball at low percentages can send someone flying. His aerial sling shot also has a surprising amount of knock back. A common theme is that his moves may not do a lot of damage, but can send you back farther than you expected. His up smash ironically isn't a KO move at all.
+It's very easy to abuse the balloons. Villager is someone you're going to have to blast out of the arena instead of playing cutesy edge games.
-His tree move... maybe someone will figure this out but I simply don't get it. Maybe you're supposed to plant it, then down smash, then chop it, but that take so much set up for something that may not pay off at all.
-He is very floaty. People who don't like this may not like him at all, but I didn't mind.

Umm, what combos?

Man watching it a 60fps is really something else.
Planting the tree/cutting it down might work fine for edge guarding, but the biggest benefit seems to be that if you have a tree out, you get access to axe on Down+B, which seems like a decent move with great knockback at low percents...and you can use it anywhere on the screen, doesn't have to be near the tree. But after some time the tree disappears.
Also it's just down+B (plant sapling) -> down+B (water sapling to make tree grow)
No down smashing (shovel) needed.

Don't you know 2-minute matches versus level 1 CPUs are the definition of combos?
It's inevitable. It's like meeting someone that doesn't like how shit smells, I mean, I don't blame them.
Speedwagon
Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
When it's growing it can launch opponents away, too. It's not something you're really suppose to put priority to. Between each planting phase you can use the newly acquired down-special against your opponent. The watering pale can push people, and the axe can be used as an attack.
