Robin is the second slowest character.

And when I thought I'd give the 3DS exclusive mode a shot as Robin, it made the final challenge the race. Yeah, the computer is biased.

I once beat a race as Ganondorf with ~300 Jump and Speed against computers that all had at least 500 each in those stats.

Thank goodness for Danger Zones.

I sure said that!

Yeah, CPU + Danger zone can be a godsend.

Also, random thing I learned today in an online waiting room today. Greninja can Shadow Sneak while Crouch walking!

Now if only I was better at using Shadow Sneak effectively in the first place...

Long past this point, but the term "JV X-stock" (X being the most stocks you could have had in the match) is a joke pertaining to competitive player JV, who, when he lost a life but still beat the opponent without taking any more damage, always insisted that he might as well have had a X-stock in that case.

Well its pretty much the same thing, especially if you instantly K.O. the player after you come back.

Out of curiosity:

How many of you guys rarely use the alt costumes/colors? I only really use Zero Suit Samus's alt costume. (not counting Male/Female variants or the Koopalings)

Alt costumes I usually use are Greninja's shiny palette, Mario and Peach's fire flower outfit, Falco's dark blue palette, among plenty of others.

I always go with alt colors. I like having signature colors attached to my characters. I basically trademarked Red Robin (yummmmmmm) and Red Rosalina for my area.

I've always used specific colors...GB Kirby, Fire Mario and Luigi, NES Toon Link etc.

In Brawl I did it because I liked being colored for Friendly anonymous peoples...now it just stuck with me.

I pretty much put an alt color on all the fighters while I was clearing classic with everyone. But for the fighters I actually consider USING... Hmm, I think I had Gold Captain Falcon, and Green-Male WFT. Goggles Pikachu is my back-up main at the moment (And don't mind getting a chance to use him for conquest again), Humoursly enough, I'm trying to main Greninja but I mostly use his default color, toyed with Black and Red Greninjas though. but the ones where his tongue changed color makes it look kind of like he's sick...

The only character I don't use an alt for is Jr.

...Could have made a pun with that, I suppose, but that's pretty much it.

I'm only counting alternate colors, not skins like Wire Frame!Mac...

I just did a CPU only match that I call "fight of favorite fictional characters", round 1 results (all in 8 Player Smash, some of them are Miis)

  • 1. Mega Man
  • 2. Solid Snake
  • 3. Fox Mc Cloud
  • 4. Mai (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
  • 5. Deadpool
  • 6. Captain Falcon
  • 7. Sonic the Hedgehog
  • 8. Kyoko Sakura (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)

I think that if an actual fight between these 8 were to occur, it would eventually end with Deadpool vs. Captain Falcon vs. Kyoko

Round 2 results:

  • 1. Mario
  • 2. Shadow the Hedgehog
  • 3. Little Mac
  • 4. Batman
  • 5. Meta Knight
  • 6. Falco
  • 7. Link
  • 8. Superman

Alternate colors, you say? I'm quite fond of Fire Mario and Open Tournament Golf Mario. As well as Major Circuit, World Circuit, and Title Defense colors for Little Mac.

And while they're more than Palette Swaps, I tend to play as overalls Wario whenever I play as him, and I usually play as Iggy when playing as a Koopaling (blame nostalgia. Iggy's the first boss of the first video game I ever played).

I'm a super-boring person, so I only really use female Robin, pink-haired, shiny-eyed female Villager, and Famicom R.O.B. consistently, with, more occasionally, overalls Wario and maybe Clubbing Suit Samus on an even greater "occasionally" basis.

I sure said that!

Heropon Shulk (Orange with purple) is a must for me. I also use default female Robin, and circle between default and green with Lucario, and cyan, red and black with Rosalina.

This is the first Smash were I've been more fond with the alts; might have to do with the larger variety we have this time around.

The only colors I can think of that I always make sure I'm using are Black Dr. Mario, White Link and Green Greninja.

Another thing I like about Mii Fighters in SSB 4:

I can do battles representing my favorite fictional characters. Non-Mii Fighters in the game AND Mii Fighters representing either:

  • a: Video Game characters not already in the game (ie: Solid Snake, Scorpion, Dixie Kong, Knuckles)
  • b: non-video game characters (like Aang, Batman, Deadpool, or Darth Vader)

Is there any limit to how many Mii Fighters you can make in Smash?

Because I have about 150 Mii ready to be turned into my personal warriors.

...I have too much free time, ok?

I tend to go with green alts for characters, usually, unless that's the default and/or I don't find something I like more.

EDIT: That said, I do most of Luigi's alts over the default at times, except the orange, blue, and pink ones, and Robin's White Mage alt.

  • Pikachu: Emerald, Pichu, White Headband
  • Charizard: Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Blue, Ridley, Green
  • Lucario: Monochrome, Jade, Green
  • Greninja: Silver, Green, Pink, Red, Purple (Green Tongue), "Dark" (last palette)
