Is anyone else suprised.... - Page 2

Lucas is cheap.

I mean really, when they said his PK Thunder hit multiple times, I figured that didn't mean anything. I figured it meant it would do 2% four times, as opposed to 8%.

No, it actually just does 8% four times.

Which isn't an actual statistic, I'm just saying he's powerful. Hell, I can beat bosses in 15 seconds with him. And I can take the Final Boss with him alone! [All on "Very Hard", I doubt I could on "Intense"]

A well timed PK Jibaku does 35%

=\ I just think he's godly.

Zelda is still my regular, but now I can play Sheik with equal proficiency, which is something brand new. For me, it's all about her timing. As Zelda, you have to be very accurate with your hits, but when you're dead on, you do some vicious damage with her. Sheik just has wicked smash moves... and she's fast as sin.

ZeldaGirl · 03-15-2008, 02:27 AM

^Same here. I spent all day brushing up on my Zelda skills. I haven't played as much as Sheik, but I plan to later.

CuccoLady · 03-15-2008, 08:15 PM

Pit is now my main, and I am beginning to kick ass with him.

His ^+B move is so awesome. No other character's final jump can get you up from the very bottom corner of the screen. His can.

Wyborn · 03-15-2008, 08:38 PM

...Doesn't it depend on the stage?

...And can't Snake's?

**X-3** · 03-15-2008, 08:39 PM

My Top 5:

1. Ike: He fights for his damn friends.
2. Lucas: This guy is a BEAST.
3. Falco: Quote the Falco's Raven costume: "Peace of cake!".
4. Luigi: FIREY SUPER JUMP PUNCH GOOOOOOO
5. DeDeDe: He's ****ing DeDeDe.

...yeah. Lucas is indeed very cool. And Falco has a costume that makes him look like a raven.

Oh, and number 6 is probably Lucario. He may have made it, had it not been for his addiction to aura.

CuccoLady · 03-15-2008, 08:54 PM

^^ My point is that Pit's recovery is 243243132 times better than other people's. This guy is not gonna die unless you smash him. Hard.

SephirothKirby · 03-16-2008, 06:07 PM

Sheik was fierce in Melee. Now she's just kinda "Eh."

And I never got Ike's quote, "I fight for my friends."

Maybe I haven't played FE: PoR in a long time, but I don't think he had any friends, or if he did, he never fought for them. I just remember him fighting for his country, or something. And a princess.

Speed · 03-16-2008, 06:20 PM

1. Marth: God, not kidding I beat Tabuu on Intense with this guy.
2. Snake: Show Time! and he means it to!
3. Samus: I sucked as her in Melee and now she's one of my mains.
4. Link: Same as Melee he is a PWN Monster.
5. Wolf: Fox with knives, crack and a shot-gun, Not to mention that he gives you the finger in his SSE intro.

Sir Bolt the Dragoon · 03-16-2008, 06:22 PM

My tops are shaping up as follows:

1. Ice Climbers - If anything, they've gotten better since Melee.
1. Pit - I've been waiting for him to make a Smash Bros appearance for awhile, and I was not disappointed.
3. Lucario - He's like Mewtwo should have been. And the Aura effects are pretty cool.
3. Lucas - Up smash. Need I say more?
5. Olimar - I think he could be pretty fun with more practice.

Honorable mentions:
Pokemon Trainer - Charizard is awesome, but I hate Ivysaur and can't seem to control Squirtle's withdrawal attack.
Zelda/Shiek - Is anyone else disappointed that they increased the transformation time?

SephirothKirby · 03-16-2008, 06:28 PM

^^ I'm pretty sure Wolf isn't giving you the finger, it just looks that way with the placement and because your middle finger is the longest. Though, it's hard to say, it could be taken either way.

1. Lucas: He's just cheap. He takes bosses down in 15 seconds.
2. Samus: I mained her in Melee, and she's just more awesome now with the Zero Laser.
3. Ike: Jesus, I've always hated the blunt power guys, but he's just destructive, and he's not ungodly slow if you know how to time his moves.

Huh, I really just try to keep it to three. I suppose I could choose two others, if forced to...

... No, that's it. I really just use those three. When in SSE, I always pick Mario because it's hard to suck with Mario, but I'm never forced to use him.

Speed · 03-16-2008, 06:31 PM

I prefer to think it's the finger, as that whould justify his inclusion.

***Booyakasha*** · 03-16-2008, 08:35 PM

Diddy Kong is a friggin' monster.

I'm having a hard time with Fox--he was always one of my best characters in SSB and SSBM, and now he seems sort of 'meh'. Probably just need more practice.

Yoshi still rules (although they've changed egg-throwing a bit).

The Missing Link · 03-16-2008, 08:44 PM

^ I haven't used Yoshi all that much yet, much less his egg throwing ability. (God, I loved that in Melee. People hated me with those.) How is it different this time around?

***Booyakasha*** · 03-16-2008, 11:14 PM

^Less control, in my experience. In 'Melee', you could make the egg hit pretty much anywhere you wanted (within reason, anyway); in 'Brawl', you're pretty much limited to 'high arcing shot' or 'low-angle fast shot'. Not that I've been using Yoshi exclusively or anything, you understand, so I might be seeing something that isn't there.
