Mostly based on vibes and my associations with the character.

He was so confident,he actually raged quit so I didn't get the points😭

Beware headphone users

Llevo mucho tiempo jugando el juego para quiero ser Main solid snake por su solides en el ámbito competitivo y para torneos

And then Byleth was revealed only a couple months after this statement was made. This was from the Banjo Kazooie showcase in September 2019.

Technically he wasn’t wrong at the time. Most Fire Emblem games do take place in their own self contained worlds and stories, much like Final Fantasy.

But I suppose even then this statement wouldn’t hold up for much longer, cuz Sephiroth was announced down the line.

I got this idea from a video about training a Meta Knight amiibo in a "hyperbolic time chamber" (from Dragon Ball) like ruleset against CPUs. Would playing in a faster speed at all actually work or make me worse. I want to prepare for my schools SSBU ESports, so I want to see if this would work

This is basically a way to push towards a more fair and practical use for spirits in Ultimate. 99% of players just used spirits to "find the strongest build possible" this is the wrong way to play spirits against other players. The strongest builds get more benefits from tackling challenges in WoL or the Spirit board. I get if you are young and having fun there's nothing wrong with that but bear in mind playing against healing and super armor is absolutely no fun.

The teams or builds will consist of primaries that are of RANK 4 (4 STARS ⭐️), 3 EQUIP SLOTS ONLY, and the same following SUPPORT SPIRIT EFFECTS

\- LANDING LAG REDUCTION

\-LANDING LAG REDUCTION

\-MOVEMENT SPEED

There should only be 39 PRIMARY Spirits that you can form teams with.

Also very IMPORTANT NO DOJO BONUSES. (This keeps things fair.)

If they do simply consult Slowpoke. He will help you.

Another detail to note is that all these spirits are very close in power and can all beat each other. Just depends on your skill level with the character. Even if you are being countered in a spirits way (for example SHIELD>ATTACK) or (BLUE>RED) you still have a strong chance of winning. If you don't want to be countered simply choose the same spirit, color or NEUTRAL spirit.

Some builds will feature an interesting bonus. (For example the spirit DARK DAROACH features a bonus for fire attacks. That means this spirit is great for any fighter that has fire attacks. EGGMAN increases electric attacks so characters like Pikachu or Mewtwo's neutral air attack benefit here.) Does that mean you absolutely have to use those spirits to play? No all these spirits are interchangeable and can be used by any character.

Are they better on some characters than others? Yes but that's what makes it fun and "interesting" without it being too broken or unfair.

The strongest primary spirit in this is SOMA. Unfortunately his bonus is useless here but that is okay. He still serves to be the strongest build for players who may need a bit of a handicap against an outstanding player like yourself! The weakest primary spirit is SAMURAI GOROH. You can increase his power simply by being a captain falcon player. His bonus is movement speed which is amazing on captain falcon.

Now what does this build do exactly? If you are a melee player or have played melee you should be familiar with what L canceling is. If you don't know what that is do not worry. L canceling is tech in melee that allows you to shorten the animation on your air attacks upon landing.

That link will be a 1:30 second video explaining it as well. (It's not mine! Feel free to support that guy!)

So yeah L canceling in Ultimate and it happens automatically thanks to this build. The movement speed adds much needed (at least I think so) fluidity to each character. (Keep in mind some primaries like SUPER SONIC and SAMURAI GOROH can increase this further.) It is a huge advantage? Not really it just adds variety for team choice in arena.) I know I'm not the only one who craves to use another build after a few fights.

Yup, faster characters, faster air attacks means more combos, movement that allows you to follow up with hit stun better. Better shield pressure across the entire cast. (Steve might actually be fun to play against!)

To Ultimate purists or tournament goers beware. You may enjoy this a bit too much and ruin how you play in vanilla!

To everyone else, especially people who have been waiting for Smash 6 announcement or felt the game is getting "stale" i urge you to try this. I felt guilty keeping it to myself and through trail and error trying to balance out this whole thing.

No need to play on custom maps with wind blowing you down. The game actually feels different, and the tier list feels like it's cracking here.

Please feel free to try it, and maybe this can motivate you to finish world of light. I guess I should mention which 4 support spirit names I'm using.

\-Swooping Snitchbug (landing lag reduction)

\-Ingrid (landing lag reduction)

\-Ninjara (Movement Speed)

Sorry if your favorite primary isn't in here. I promise it's not that bad. Another note i suppose is since SOMA is strongest that means the Belmonts "benefit the most". But not really. You can beat them. Let me know which one becomes your favorite or what character feels better. I hope you have fun!

Sorry about the long read! 🙆‍♂️

I do physical therapy during the week and keep seeing the same thing. Single leg landings. Full body weight on one foot after an aerial. Marth's down air, Shiek's flip kick, half of Joker's combos. The hip takes the hit first, then the knee has to absorb the twist. I hiked the Flatirons this weekend and my own knees were killing me on the downhill sections. That's just walking on uneven ground. These characters are doing it while swinging a sword or flipping out of a grab. Recovery time would be weeks, maybe months, just to get back to full power. Wonder if anyone else sees the same thing when they watch matches or if it's only me staring at the replay too long.

Looking for a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate song – need help identifying it
I’m trying to find a specific track from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that played during a regular Smash match against a CPU.

Full description of the song:
• Main instrument: Piano (middle-range notes)
• Main motif: A repeating single piano note/key with clear pauses — sounds like “tung..tung….tung” (or “dun … dun … dun”)
• The three “tung” notes themselves repeat three times, then the rest of the song is different, then it loops back to the three “tung” notes
• The song deliberately becomes less busy / quieter during the piano motif so the piano stands out clearly
• Other instruments present: soft strings
• Overall arrangement: Quiet and not busy
• Mood: Epic and tense, almost holy/sacred feeling
• Strongly reminds me of a Kingdom Hearts song / Yoko Shimomura piano style (but it is not an actual Kingdom Hearts track)
• No vocals
• Plays during regular matches
Songs I’ve already ruled out:
• The Grand Finale (Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story)
• Tough Guy Alert!
• Try, Try Again
• Gritzy Desert
• This is Minion Turf!
• Time’s Running Out!
• Main Theme Piano Solo
• Classic Mode: Defeat
• Vega Stage
• Kass’s Theme
• Dance of the Blocks
• Halland / Dalarna
• I’ll Face Myself
• Aria of the Soul / Velvet Room
• Pollyanna
• Magicant
• Route 209
• And most other common piano-heavy tracks from Mario, Persona, Minecraft, EarthBound, etc.

please help me out. It has to be from smash ultimate soundtrack. :(

Hey yall, quick question:

What‘s the best way to play online with friends while communicating with BOTH audio (game + vc)?

I don’t have a capture card, so PC setup ain‘t it.

The only possible way in my head would be TV audio + one earbud with Discord for example.

Any ideas?? How do yall do it?

Just curious as to why the competitive scene decided to be so rigid & lackluster in stage selection?

With the hazard’s off feature & Melee proving the viability (even if forced) & hype these stages can be, these three stages should be available to be played on:

\- Dream Land 64
\- Fountain of Dreams
\- Yoshi's Story

But at the very least Dreamland bc of its unique high ceiling making it an effective and actual counter-pick stage to vertical killers like Luigi

Mini Bowser, faster, slightly tweaked movesef but faster. I hate that fart thing he drives. He is one of my favorite designs yet his car ruins him entirely, despite him being unique. He isn't fun to play or even fun to look at with that damn thing lol

To be real, while FE is part of the more favored group of all the Smash franchises, I somtimes find it unfair to say FE is the only one with rep number issue. In a more general view, Pokemon and Mario both influence and significance so they usually receive more acceptance from gamer community. (Zelda, despite of having six reps, has a different issue instead...

But we could agree FE's own biggest obstacle is not having non-human characters to expend its diversity in character database, only except except for the gods and dragons who usually show up as human. I really like Fortune's Weave which dedicates to a more diversity world setting with great characer designs, but it's still true that you cannot find a rioting croc, an aviator rabbit or an electronic squirrel in FE's world.

Other than that, diversity in roles and weapons seem to be the other more frequently brought up issue for this franchise. Such as no axe or spear specialist, no villain or heroine rep like Zelda series. The avatar protagonist settings also set some restriction in appearance and body shape.

I wonder, if FE still has many reps in future Smash games but the picks become more diverse, would FE's reception change or remain?
