[up] That song is wonderfully trippy. Would be perfect for a weird dream sequence in a game.

One of my friends knows someone in her college that refuses to play any Smash game that isn't Project M, and thinks he is an asshole for refusing to play any SSB game that isn't Project M.

Do you guys agree with her or no?

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

As long as they don't look down on others for playing something other than Project M, they're not an asshole. If he does, though, screw him.

My friend shames me for rolling away from opponents and charging Thoron at a distance while using Arcfire to cover myself is "cheap". Is that true?

n... no?

That's how you play a ranged character.

That's like saying someone who plays Captain Falcon is cheap for going in for a rushdown while you're trying to charge a ranged attack.

Indeed. That's just how Robin works.

Your friend needs to learn how to approach better.

I sure said that!

When I told him that, he said "Well, Robin isn't entirely a ranged character" as I was also using his dash attack and aerials quite a bit.

Nobody in Smash is entirely a ranged character. Everyone has melee moves, even Mega Man. But Robin is definitely largely a ranged character.

So again- Your friend needs to learn how to approach.

And evidently, also how to admit when he's messing up.

Yeah. I'm great with Robin, but I've been utterly wrecked by a good Peach who throws turnips over Arcfire and knows how to wait.

Robin is a ranged character that gets camped too easily unfortunately.

Sheik, Fox and Greninja ruin his day pretty badly.

I'm not entirely certain why we're encouraging bad habits, but the very least the user can do is acknowledge that it must not be particularly fun or engaging to play against.

It's not a particularly good way to play either. It's no better than Link or camp Villager.

I've seen people sit in the corner and spam Thoron. It's can be countered easily with certain characters, but it's not fun to fight, even if you are winning. It's just frustrating.

The whole Robin thing is reminding me of a Smash match that was played on Wednesday at my birthday party:

One of my friends was Robin, and the stage was Gamer. I heard that all my friend was doing with Robin was camping and spamming Thoron. They didn't figure out to approach differently to attack Robin. Or the other friend (The one that loves Link and Toon Link) should've suggested a different stage like Orbital Gate Assault or Gaur Plains or even Wily Castle to not give Robin an unfair advantage.

Getting into Robin's space pretty much ends Robin. If Robin starts jumping, there isn't much Robin can do if somebody is directly below Robin. Maybe surprise Elwind? Spot dodging El and Arc thunder while getting closer would put a lot of pressure on Robin to jump or roll.

Robin packs a pretty mean d-air too. With the Levin. Without it, it's underwhelming.

Heck, all of Robin's aerials pack a real punch with the Levin Sword. Though his b-air goes sour after the initial thrust.

Robin's down air is really laggy though. Even hitting someone with it, I feel like my opponent can hit me back before the endlag on down air is over.

That's true. Atleast it's a meteor smash?

You know whats fun? Getting a KO by meteor smashing someone to the ground so hard they just fly to the top blast zone.

And that's why I actually love playing as Falcondorf. He's got so much power, KO'ing anyone is a breeze if you can hit. Bar super armor ignoring it and Counters.

He feels so good to control. evil grin

Pre-order secured.

Both Duck Hunt and G&W are among my mains, so no way was I gonna miss out on the pack with them in it.

I'm interested in all three of them, so the three-pack was a good opportunity for me to get all of them without having to import.

So... Here I was thinking Bowser's side B suicide always ended in his loss.

I accidentally did it to a Link today and it went to Sudden Death.

I guess it's a coin flip on some characters then?
