GGs Tipster. I really lost focus in those last few. I think I discovered a way to escape Metal Blade grabs on hit, but I forgot to do it a lot.
Spring break baby!

Good games for sure! I was getting kind of sloppy myself, I'm pretty wiped out too!
Do you mean spot dodging? That can work, for sure. But it depends on how many times the blade hits you.
Edit: Shamrock likes to block it and then short hop neutral air with Ness. It's a quick punish on the grab when it's shielded. Not sure if Bowser has an equally as fast move. Though that's on block, not on hit.

Nah, Bowser's jump seems to have a lot more startup frames.
If it hits, I can actually Dair and it seems to activate the windbox to push you back. I did it a few times against you with success. I don't know if it works at all %, though.
Edit: Also, Ness has a much smaller hitbox than me, and he doesn't have the worst dash in the game.
What really kills me isn't the projectiles, though, but just how sank slippery Megaman is. Gah. His jumps might be the best in the game for fake-outs.

Oh, that's actually pretty cool if it works. I didn't really notice, I'll have to keep my eyes open for it next time.

I have the AirLink101. I have a feeling I found it for cheaper than you can find it now, as I bought it back in the Wii days...
I liked when we had a Zora tunic Link ditto.
Mewtwo is pretty much done. He should be coming out soon.

Woooo
So that rumored direct next week might be happening? Man, how cool would him coming out next Thursday be?
What rumored Direct?
Oh, that.
Still, the fact that it took this long for Mewtwo to be finished is concerning for the fate of other potential DLC characters.

"We OUR planning on releasing him soon."
Sakurai pls
Ug this honey-flavored vodka is terrible
Obligatory hype-train fanning: Would you prefer Ice Climbers or a newcomer be bundled with Mewtwo? Let's say you can't pick which newcomer though.
I'd go with newcomer. Nobody needs 16 ice climbers on screen at once.
Masked Man
I said wow
I'd go with Lucas. Psi-Smash Duo DLC Pack pls!!!

Now that Ness has some of Lucas's specials, is that really the most exciting prospect? How much would that really add to the roster?
All of his normals were different. It'd add more in the level of falco than dr Mario.
Plus he my boy

Anyone trying to throw down some 1v1?

Well, Falco's my boy/bird, so I gotta respect that. I just wonder, is the appeal of adding Lucas really higher than a newcomer?
I feel like people are thinking about how Lucas was in Brawl, obviously, since that's the only game he was in. If Falco had been cut, I would also be thinking about Brawl Falco, and I'd be pissed about him getting cut. However, since I've played Sm4sh Falco, and he's not as good, I'm ambivalent. I wonder if hypothetical Sm4sh Lucas would be similarly nerfed.
I'm imagining people playing a new Lucas and being unimpressed, relative to his Brawl incarnation. But that's just one possibility.
Keep them ideas coming!

Lucas didn't have any tools like Falco's autocancel laser or instant meteor smash. Maybe they would nerf the hitbox or the power of his up smash, but that's all I can think of.

As in "Heathcliff"
I would like to see Lucas and Wolf coming back because they already have fan bases for people that already have attachments with those characters.

I would like Ice Climbers back the most, just because they are veterans and have a unique style of play.
I want to hurt him every time he calls Sakurai "daddy". What the fuck is wrong with him?

Ness has butchered versions of Lucas's specials. They don't really act the same, and are far worse
What if Sakurai is really his dad?

Bout to finish my 20th or so playthrough of Earthbound. So depressing it has to end =(

Then Sakurai is a terrible father for raising such a moron.
Maybe Intelliheath should add a little guide to ways to wire your connection in the OP.
Want to 1v1?

Etika gets really excited over stuff lol, that's just part of his character I think.
Yeah, from what I hear there should be no difference.
Shamrock I am going to buy the game and play through it just so I can develop a proper opinion on it and disappoint you no matter what it is.

Anyone around to play? Karsticles did you find anyone?

I will play in about 5 min
Haha just take the game slow, talk to everyone, and enjoy it. I consider it more of an experience than a game. It has deep themes that just aren't prevalent in most videogames.

Don't worry Shamrock will make short work of me. He should be available soon.

There's some pretty silly technology where Falco's Fast Fire Bird custom used at the correct angle gives him no landing lag as well as momentum on landing. It already happened on sloped surfaces with regular Fire Bird for him and Fox, but apparently this works on flat surfaces.
Haven't tried it yet.

I can't play until tomorrow evening.
I get curved in here at least three times a week. You get used to it.

Cronoc, I dont think the full hop air dodge tech on battlefield actually works like that poster thinks. It isn't cancelling anything, you just recover and can do a move.
I spent the last hour practitcing playing Bowser with no A moves so I can do better against Blackmage.

Hey Shamrock good games. Sure I lost like 10 in a row but those first 3, the world was mine!

Haha ggs man. Yea you have improved a ton. Took me awhile to figure out a strategy. Nice work man. Keep showing everyone how good the heavys can be

Perhaps.
If you're still available, we can have our ranbat match.

I just discovered that Crash Bomb has no knockback if Bowser is running when it pops, even at over 100%.God, the Megaman matchup is so counterintuitive. I have to run into projectiles to win.

Grab the buzzsaw instead of blocking it. Use that to approach
Can't at this moment, maybe later this evening?
Sure thing.

Ya this thing is pretty fucking awesome lol. We've been trying to learn it at the Uni club, the input is very strict.

Easier said than done. Bowser has many more pre-jump frames than Ness. I have to predict the saw if we are mid-range from one another. I recognize this is the best strategy, though.
