Shulk tend to have two hitboxes on his attacks: the blade and the beam. Those hitboxes may have their own sweetspots or sourspots. The blade hitbox tend to be the hitbox that gives the most damage and launch power.

Make use of the Monado Arts: It's his whole shtick after all. Jump tend to be good for edgeguarding and recovery, Speed is good for getting in and out, Shield is proably best used when you've KOed someone and have percents on you, Buster is good for damage racking and combos once Speed is down, and Smash should be saved for the times where you get good opportunities for a KO.

Remember that Air Slash can hit twice if you press the button twice, which is also nice for some extra air time.

Visions are your counter. If you can predict when the opponent is about to hit you with a powerful attack, use this. It's best not to overuse it though because spamming it gives you less counterframes which makes you more susceptible to attacks.

@Shulk: Buster-whole-match-then-Smash is extremely predictable, for one thing, and you'll just end up taking loads of damage yourself. So dont do that.

Love Robin's title: Tactician Magician really emphasize his differences from the other FE characters.

Also, R.O.B.'s title. Poor R.O.B.

It's too bad R.O.B. can't talk- I'd love to hear what he'd have to say after defeating Ganondorf.

I sure said that!

[up][up]Don't worry, ROB! You'll have some friends once Nintendo releases your amiibo!

...Come to think of it, it's going to be super awkward to have a Mirror Match with two or more ROBs on Boxing Ring.

R.O.B.'s is just depressing. Duck Hunt's is funny.

Shulk's title is the least threatening one by far, even moreso than Diddy's.

Also, Dr.Mario's my favorite. It's so unnecessarily ominous.

With how many weeks of anticipation was the 3DS version's demo released? I'm kind of losing hope for one for the Wii U at this point.

Anyone else think it's bullshit that Kirby doesn't get the KO Meter if he copies Mac's ability?

I really wanted to try that when i was in a For Glory 4-p match earlier. Boo.

Just watched all of Pit's and Palutena's codex. I'm really sad they didn't run with Ike's or Shulk's god killing swords. Otherwise, I found them funny.

I forgot to say something but it was probably Wario-related.

But again, Diddy is like the perfect character for a second banana gag title.

Considering that he can cartwheel and jump in mid cartwheel, calling him acrobat doesn't seem that far off.
