I have a question I want to ask, I've heard that apparently a lot of people don't like Little Mac? Why is that, is it because of his lack of air mobility or his Super Armor?

I hear it's because it's very difficult to dodge his punches on the ground. He has some rapid punch attack or something, and it's frustrating to get away from that.

Though his aerial attacks are ass, apparently.

I like him a lot!

Yeah I just heard the Smash Community apparently doesn't to the point that it's on the Fandom Berserk button on the TVtropes page.

I noticed a lot of people online (mostly the bad players) use him for that 1-hit KO ability I assume that's the reason for a lot of the hate, Little Mac is easily punished by any character with a counter attack, I don't really hate him other wise he has his weakness like any other character. I managed to counter a lot of Little Mac's with Shulk's awesome down B counter.

Now playing a decent Rosalina player is frustrating, it so hard to get close. >.>

It's kind of both. Basically, people hate on Mac because he's the anti-tournament-metagame character. The fact that he's a beast on the ground with a poor air game alleged to balance him means that he dominates Final Destination (hence, you'll see a lot of him in For Glory).

This one match Lou & I played, I was using Little Mac & doing commentary as Doc. I had Lou in tears after he unleashed a Meowth on me while I was against the ropes of the ring. I couldn't move, and Mac's health skyrocketed up from about 30% - 210% due to the coins and pummeling I was getting all at once.

Doc - "GET OUT OF THERE MAC. GET YOUR HANDS UP. GUARD THE FACE, GUARD THE FACE! MAC! MAC, I'M THROWING IN THE TOWEL. YOU'RE DONE, SON!!!"

Brilliant!

Got the game so I tried out Classic Mode with Ike on 2.0 to get used to it and unlocked Falco with a bit of difficulty due to how fast Falco is but I beat him.

I'll decide which character I'll do next a bit later, I still have trouble fighting Master Hand, mostly because I'm not that good at Air Combos especially with Ike, so it'll be a while before I can even think about fighting Crazy Hand. At least I wasn't so [acid burst] poor that I had to use a Continue and my only death was a suicide on Final Destination so that's an improvement. Maybe I'll try Lucario, Peach, or Villager on somewhere between 3.0 and 4.0 next.

I also did a bit of training with some characters, I feel like Marth is a bit less stift than he was back then so that's an improvement, Sheik is fun, Zero Suit Samus may need to get a little used to but I'll get her eventually, Palutena is also someone I need to get used to, I like Robin quite a bit, Lucario feels nice and I still need to get used to Ike again he seemed to be a little slower here. I'll try a few more later, I want to see what Shulk is like.

Finally 100%'d this game, Mii Hats took forever to unlock. I'm short 2 Bonus Effects for equipment, but I'm tired of RNG and I'll probably acquire them eventually...

I've been struggling to pick a main, but right now I like ZSS for 1v1s and Samus for 2v2s. It's quite fun partnering with a heavyweight like Dedede, Ganondorf, Ike, etc., and just grabbing an opponent for your partner to get an easy smash.

Anyone interested in playing a few 1v1s online?

Sakura Leic · **Reply #5160 on:** October 20, 2014, 07:33:03 AM

I think Lucina may be one of my better characters.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #5161 on:** October 20, 2014, 07:56:02 AM

I haven't tried her that much.

Oh and maybe another night, Soultrigger. Caught up in Challenge beating mode tonight!

Sakura Leic · **Reply #5162 on:** October 20, 2014, 07:58:16 AM

I'm just trying to get more equipment, seriously I feel sorry for my Mii Brawler. The Swordsman is the most balanced, the Gunner is the most powerful but his defense sucks, and the poor Mii Brawler only has single digits across the board.

Sapphire Knight · **Reply #5163 on:** October 20, 2014, 08:02:49 AM

I think one of my best characters this time is Bowser.

I find that Brawler has the best Final Smash of the three haha

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #5165 on:** October 20, 2014, 04:34:52 PM

I'm using Mii Brawler a lot, closest there is to getting Blue into smash.

You know, the announcer is such an underappreciated part of Smash Bros.

Seriously the announcers are awesome. Also tried Smash Run, I think I'll be doing that alot.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #5168 on:** October 20, 2014, 08:59:57 PM

I enjoy Smash Run a lot. I find it relaxing!

Sakura Leic · **Reply #5169 on:** October 20, 2014, 09:02:07 PM

Plus it seems easier than Classic mode at least to me, so I don't have to worry about losing precious equipment.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #5170 on:** October 20, 2014, 09:12:55 PM

I do love the epic VERSUS [insert Smash Bros player here] announcements with the insane epic music in the background!

Yeah, even if you lose in Smash Run you get to keep the stuff you gather.

Surprisingly, he's only 22.

Awesome

Sakura Leic · **Reply #5174 on:** October 21, 2014, 01:11:14 AM

The Mii Brawler is now on par with the Swordfighter....but the Gunner is still insane with stats.
