Let'en my post flyen true

Most rule shenanigans seem to come from lowering the number of stocks or lowering the time to like 3". Which I just don't get, you like sudden death or something?

Some characters or players would like Sudden Death more than playing regularly, especially if they have big, heavy projectiles like Samus or Lucario. A coin flip is easier to win than earning it.

Also with very low time, people will try to take one stock and then run away to win via timeout as a character that is hard to catch.

I have set them, yeah. I figured people were picking stages because some of them (especially the Samus) felt super deliberate.

True but I think I've kept them all.

Hanenbow is a favorite cause I gave it great music and it's a horrible stage but neat.

I hope they don’t do a starter this time since I find all the starters from gen 8 to not be the most interesting.

They’re main characters, so in they go

Starting to get a little frustrated with that tbh

Same. With my Smash group we never select stages, random every time.

We did get Lucario instead of a starter in Brawl so there's hope.

I don't play pokemon but i'm struggling to conceive of one better than a professional wrestler cat who hams it up for the audience after he body slams someone

also yeah we have Lucario, Jigglypuff and Mewtwo. If it wasn't for Pokemon Yellow coming out after Pikachu was already the darling of the series, non-starters would be decidedly ahead of starters

I main Samus and still hate it. I play this game to play Smash, not weirdo rock paper scissors!

Hell yeah. Ran across a Snake playing 1 stock on FD the other day, thought he was so clever. Enjoy that bair shithead.

A Samus in a mirror match bomb>tilted (the crescent kick) me on edge a lot and it felt like a student of another school teaching me his ancient art while I showed him my aerial arts instead. We both practiced the art of No Charge. He beat me out in the end but we both adapted the other and began to counter it and it felt really cool.

Apparently in Japan you can buy physical cards for the fighter pass that come in an envelope like invited characters get (and presumably just has like a code you can enter in the E store?) and those go on sale March 23. I don't think we will get more than a character announcement at that point but who knows.

If there’s a Direct this month and I think it’s somewhat likely we’ll get an announcement of the first FP2 character.
