Wall of Shame? Not familiar with that.

thread 16's wall of shame

also IntelliHeath it's top 15 not top 10

 

[The Captain]

Top 10 posters in the thread. He's jealous that you are better at posting than he does.

Any link where I can see it?

EDIT: Saw it. Not on there. I must not be trying hard enough.

Check this video maybe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHPpVEB1loA&list=UUc8JKj5y6NVUd7RooLMvjdQ

It was early, but he's the only one I know of offhand with good content for a lot of the Smash 4 characters. He's working through character tutorials for everyone too, so it might be worth checking his twitch archive (twitch.tv/zero) to see if he's gotten to Link yet.

Also, I think if you hold up, you might be able to get out of the Mario combo just before the up airs. Someone tested it and found something like that, I think. Might also need to mash air dodge or jump or something.

If I had to guess at advice, I'd say probably to hang back more. Link has always felt like he shines the most when playing keep away. Throw lots of bombs, boomerangs. Try to bait out the cape with one, then go above with with the other. Also try mixing in the aerial clawshot. I'm not sure how well it works on Mario's height, but it's pretty much lagless, covers short hops, and has a big range.

Aw, thanks, this was a really thorough response. I'll try to work in more clawshot and choose my approaches more carefully.

Y'see, I'd object, but it's kinda true.

Game having come out + lackluster POTD = slow thread.

Someone should graph out the Wall of Shame winners for each of the threads so far.

Back off punk! *shakes fist*

I've been too busy with classes and not touching the demo >.>

That makes me happy and a little sad lol.

Just you watch...

Also, hey, we only summoned EmCeeGramr once! And that was only to point out that Ganondorf committed atrocities, too, rather than us posting which Smash characters we'd want as our families! We should be proud! Er... I think?

I don't post much because I'd rather play the game than post.

oh Hatchtag beat me to the joke, dammit.

Congrats on all the wins, but this time first will belong to me. Just you watch.

Hardcore K Rool fans are way more annoying.

Tell me about it:

Now you are going to tingling the prodigy's math sense.

Anyway, back to topic.

I wonder if we are going to get more information based on data mines or we are completely done with it.

I probably won't get the game until the Wii U version is out in the West. I'm still not sure whether or not I should get the 3DS version.

are you trying to bring him back or not?

 

[The Captain]

It's a shame that this thread pics up right around the time I need to sleep.

Interesting to note that about 32% of all my posts ever are on this thread, and I still haven't even gotten past my first month as a member.
What have I gotten myself into.

already done, and with who won each thread too

Now graph out the number of posts for each member over time. Post the results.

Now you're stealing my rival, too?!

Also, I was looking for proof of K. Rool-in-Smash topics on DK Vine. Couldn't find any, but I'm still half-surprised that place is still around.

And I finally found an old Geno post from the GameFAQs Brawl Board that didn't get purged!:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/928518-super-smash-bros-brawl/54945732 It wasn't nearly as big as the others, though...

And yet you have time to post on this thread. Sure.

Hey man, we can have an open rivalry. We don't need to be bound by rules.

yeah but why do you need GameFAQs when Smashboards has all the meltdowns anyway?

 

[BassForever]

Can you imagine the smash hype train for the game after Ridley is playable? 80% of all pre release smash posts would have to be about something different

Again? Surely not....

"Let's add some more spikes, and make sure he's really muscular! Now he'll be a real badass!"

well in flat-tops super inspection of ridley's shadow, he looks to be built more like Prime's lanky ridley rather than buff other M clonely.

Other M Samus's design + Prime's Ridley design would make me a happy boy.

Us Geno fans already gave up long ago, lol

Oh my. I'm open to that.

I wonder what the new obsession would be in that case.

My money's still on Mewtwo, Dixie, Chorus Kids, a Brawl cut, or K. Rool.

Maybe Isaac, too, now that I think about this. This is all contingent on DLC, but at the very least we know K. Rool's not getting in, so that'll always be one character left to debate about.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

Oh wait, you said new?


...Captain Toad

 

[theprodigy]

Hmm....I could actually see that

 

[Ryce]

There have been two new Band Brothers games since Brawl, so Barbara's removal as an Assist Trophy makes me think Dixie Kong will be DLC and that she'll use the electric guitar as a special move or Final Smash. Maybe Sakurai thought it would be redundant to include both.

 

[Kinsei]

...Captain Toad

The one Smash character that would have an even worse air game than Little Mac.

Zoroark's (Pokeball) attack is literally the same as Greninja's Final Smash.

Well, Zoroark is a Pokeball Pokemon and his attack is pretty damn similar to Greninjas Final Smash, so I don't think that would be the reason.

Edit: beaten!

I can't stop thinking about this after learning about it today.
