With Pit all I did was use an edge attack, wait to see which one breaks off from the group, grab them, throw them backwards, f-air, repeat. For Lucina I spammed Counter and used this technique.

The Luigi one isn't so bad. One way to do it is hold on to the ledge, attack the Miis, drop down, and up-B. Rinse and repeat for one minute. I think it's the easiest out of all the Cruel Smash challenges in the upper region of the Challenges board.

That sounds a lot easier than what I was doing. I was just spamming Down-B. I got to 55 seconds.

There's also the Metroid Smash Tour challenge. Which I wouldn't mind, if it wasn't for the fact that the Metroid doesn't always appear. One challenge that was surprisingly easy to clear than I expected was the one to do All-Star as Captain Falcon without healing.

As far as events go, I didn't really have too much trouble with ones everyone hates. Like the Game and Watch event and Meta Knight one. Those were relatively easy for me. Yellow Devils and the food eating one game me more trouble.

My favorite stages are Kalos League (It's like the Stadium stages, but awesomer), Gaur Plains (Awesome music + Metal Face), and Orbital Gate Assault (Really amazing aesthetic, plus based on a fun level).

The only stages I'm not so fond of are 75m (No stable ground to fight on) and Palutena's Temple (Too big).

Moon, my friend, I'm sorry, but you're in no position to tell people what's hard or just bullshit. tongue

I mean, technically the challenge "beat Full Moon's Greninja" wouldn't be bullshit because there's no ridiculous RNG shenanigans going on there, but it'd still require me to drop everything and dedicate my life to becoming a competitive player, you know?

With the AI, once you've obsessively spent hours battling level nine characters like the lifeless piece of shit you are, you see patterns. They respond to punch with dodge, when you run up to them they do X, and etc. You can fall back to tried and true strategies and combos using this, while human enemies can mix things up, the jerks.

Yeah I have to say my post was a little lacking in coherentness. Two separate thoughts: a) Full Moon you are ridiculously good and consequently not a good measure for what should be considered too hard for players who are not ridiculous, and b) fighting against you is actually less bullshit difficult despite being without a doubt much more legitly difficult. Of course, beating you when you're going all-out is probably no less difficult than clearing Classic on 9.0 without losing a continue (and hey, at least that can be learned and probably exploited to make it easier), but fighting against the AI in this game is always a battle against an RNG and consequently little more than an exercise in frustration ... unless you are ridiculously good, probably.

There's kind of a c), too. Of course beating all those challenges "just" takes time, but the same could be said of anything else. I could get a Ph.D. in philosophy are something but I'm not gonna spend several years doing that to unlock something in a videogame. tongue

I'm waiting for a mod download to end, but when that's over, does anyone feel like a Smashing good time, on Wii U?

[up][up] You can very easily cheese the AI though and I don't think any of the challenges are going to take that long to complete outside of "Complete All-Star/Classic with all characters" kind of challenge, at most the harder one will take a hour or two.

I'm also incapable of holding back, I'm always going all-out. Now whether I'm the top of my game or not is an entirely different story tongue

#68139: Jan 18th 2015 at 7:34:02 AM

I don't wanna learn how to cheese the AI thoouugh... Well, part of that might just be that I'm terrible at adapting to different playstyles anyway. I just know how to play offensively with just enough defense to maybe avoid dying. Even just adapting to a more reactive playstyle that works so much better against the CPU is apparently too much to ask. ... as I keep saying, I'm not terribly talented for this game. tongue

(Don't take this the wrong way, anyone who's ever lost to me - I can be hard to beat, I just have a lot of weaknesses, too. That's why I backspaced and said "talented" instead of just "good", because it's not like I'm bad and anyone who can't easily beat me is bad, too, you know?)

(Just saying.)

Though it gained a lot after it got a second half with a different melody. The original GameBoy track cycles back a smidge too fast.

My least favorite stages are Wily's Castle (too cramped with the Yellow Devil impeding fighting) and Yoshi's Island.

If Ike didn't have any friends, who would he fight for?

There's at least his sister, Mist, the memory of his father and his abiding anger at the Black Knight.
