I don't really know. Luigi was always higher tier than Mario in Brawl.

Mario was nerfed pretty badly in Brawl, to be fair. He lost one of his best moves in the arsenal and FLUDD just wasn't that good overall(it still isn't that great, but if he can get people off the stage often enough, FLUDD works as a nice edgeguarding tool).

Luigi was not nerfed at all in comparison.

Both were buffed to fantastic heights in Sm4sh (their best moves are practically lagless), but Luigi especially. Almost all his damn moves chain ridiculously well.

You can see the bullet bills on the ground in the original video, that's how I found that out tongue

Yes Folt, we know anyone who prefers female Robin is a moron, you didn't have to write a dissertation on why.

Nah, they're not. But some of them tend to get overly defensive by the slightest suggestion that their alt isn't and never was treated like the special snowflake that they so obviously are You Monster! and how dare you suggest otherwise. tongue

And shorter than Lucina, who is normally a bit shorter than him.

That one's easy: Lucina was resized to fit Marth's proportions since she was originally gonna be an alternate costume of him. In reality, Robin's size hasn't changed much at all.

It's especially easy to see in Fates since Lucina was reproportioned to be around the same size as Marth and Robin.

Now to the main point: There's a rumor going around that Shovel Knight is indeed making a debut in Smash Bros. with an amiibo in tow. Personally, I think we're getting Shovel Knight-themed Mii costumes of him and the other chars.

I would actually need proof that Shovel Knight would actually be playable. Though I support it because I've been wanting to play his game for a while now.

The Amiibo was a hoax. The screenshot was made using one of those Smashified youtube vidoes that make mock-up Smash Bros trophy models for various characters. That leak is as fake as the Layton one.

I saw that rumor but I know they're just trying to toy with my feelings.

If Shovel Knight does get in I'm probably going into hysterics.

Interesting, Mii-costumes would be cool too (I'd actually consider buying those ones). True or false I'm looking forward to seeing that the ballot results were and who we actually get.

But guess I'll leave it at that because spoiler thread.

I will always think FLUDD being implemented as a Final Smash where Mario blasts a whirlpool that carries and damages opponents in front of him (so basically a watery Mario Finale), while Mario keeps his old Down B and Down Aerial, would had been optimal.

I will also always think alternate costumes (not alternate palettes) deserve a bit more love.

I still think Mario & Fludd should have been their own character, just dress Mario in his Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses and he stands out enough, if not more than Dr. Mario.

Also, at the very least, you think if you guys are gonna post spoilers for other games here, you'd at least mention somewhere ahead of time in the post what's being spoiled.

Side B: Turbo Nozzle
Down B: Squirt Nozzle.

[up]Pretty much except down special would be hover nozzle (for a slow, controlled recovery that pushes opponents down) and up special would be the rocket nozzle (for a Diddy Kong-like recovery that hits opponents on the way up). Final Smash could be any number of ridiculous water things.

To be fair, to them it sure as hell looked like the End of Days.

Almost literally- Delfino Plaza is covered in darkness by the start of the game, in addition to all that horrifyingly caustic sludge everywhere.

... Gadd, why the hell would you make that paintbrush? There are zero non-evil applications for it.

I sure said that!

So if you use a Bullet Bill and either use straight down from a jump right over the opponent or just use it really close to the opponent when grounded and aim it downwards, it hits twice (collision then explosion) does 55% damage and kills Yoshi at 22%

That's pretty crazy.

The caustic sludge is a pretty unhelpful function, though, and considering it's formed as a brush that's presumably the main application.

... Y'know, I'm not a huge fan of Jr.'s Final Smash, on this subject. I feel like it should've been something to do with the Airships, especially since he shares it with the Koopalings.

I sure said that!
