It mostly comes down to how good the character you're playing as is in terms of launch power. Most of the cast can Forward Smash their way to an easy win even on Hard in All-Star, though some need to be more creative- Meta Knight and Villager both tend to rely on their Down Specials instead, for example.

I sure said that!

I've only been able to clear All Star twice: Once as Mii Brawler and once as Mewtwo.

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

I'm only really having trouble clearing it on Hard with Olimar.

And I mean, of course I'm having trouble with Olimar.

Funny that Olimar is probably the deadliest OPPONENT in All-Star Mode since a ton of his attacks, including all his KO moves, count as projectiles as far as knockback reduction goes. You can survive a punch from Donkey Kong at 200-250% just fine, but getting lightly smacked by a Pikmin aerial while at 70-80%? Say goodnight.

Teamwork is a beautiful thing

I love Palutena's "Too bad for you." at 9th, so appropriate tongue

What would you guys say makes collecting Custom Moves easiest in the Wii U version?

The Special Orders. That's the best method for collecting a lot of stuff, really.

Master Orders probably. You're more likely to get extra custom parts for whoever you're using.

Hard All-Star and Trophy Rush are also good choices, with the obvious caveat of some characters being much worse at those two modes than others.

I sure said that!

[up]*5: I think the modded one with Kirby is my favorite, simply because of the epic facepalm from both players afterwards.

What I've learned trying to clear Hard All-Star with Olimar:

1) Up Smash. Up Smash Up Smash Up Smash.

2) Yellow and White are useless to you. Throw them off the stage as soon as possible so they aren't getting in the way of Red, Blue and Purple. Try not to cry.

3) Cry a lot.

If you've got Amiibos you can set up 8 way matches with 99 stock with just amiibos. They'll collect lots of stuff for you and you can do it while you watch tv or whatever.

That won't clear the "Beat All-Star on Hard with every character!" challenge, though.

It ended up being kinda sorta almost okay. All those failures added up to me getting all of Olimar's custom specials, finally.

Isn't it possible to reflect Game & Watch's Oil Panic back at him?

Pocketing that thing would be interesting to see.

Pocket oil?

I can't remember if any character had a sand attack...

As far as my research goes (given that I don't have access to my game right now), Oil Panic isn't a projectile, but a disjointed hitbox, so I doubt that the Villager can pocket it. It'd be hilarious if he could, though.

He already pockets Zelda's phantom knight.

And his own tree.

And Chu's thunder.

Next is pocketing another player and suiciding for a win.

No, not a character, the player.
