The World of Light fight where you take on Ganondorf with the sword in the stamina match has taught me more about playing Smash than everything else in this game. WoL is still pretty disappointing (bad difficulty balance) but that was great.

How'd you like Pauline?

Do I need the paid membership for that?
unfortunately

we're also on separate continents so it would probably lag like shit anyway

Last night I did one where you go up against a team of 3 high level Inklings who all spawn with a variety of blasters, have the trait that they do more damage with ranged projectiles, and have hostile trophy characters spawn in to support them every 15 seconds or so (it's the trophy where some guy sets up a mortar that fires like 10 homing rockets that track you). There's so many projectiles at all times that it's impossible to block or dodge them and they all do over 10% of damage for every hit. It's an impossible challenge no matter how good you are unless you cheese it or grind for days to get the best possible supports at level 100. I beat it by just camping out at the very bottom corner of the map in the hopes of hitting a good charged B attack and throwing one of them off the screen. Took me a good number of tries but managed to get lucky and clear it after a while.
sounds pretty dumb, but using a spirit that equips you with an item called a franklin badge (which reflects all projectiles shot at you as a passive buff), any spirit that grants temporary invincibility, etc. probably would've been a more rewarding and fun way to beat it rather than what you described

most of the tough spirit battles have a powerful yet easily exploitable gimmick, with one big gaping obvious weakness which may require a little creativity and lots of knowledge of how all the game's items work

it's understandable that you'd prefer the ones that simply require gameplay finesse though

I'm going to drop Mewtwo. Way too floaty for me and I don't like that he's got two specials that are essentially stuns. Simon's been fun so I might give him a shot instead. That or Link.
well, the side+b reflects stuff, which is super nice

but yeah, i was never a fan of mewtwo's floatiness, weight, and moveset--he'd probably be my main back in melee if he played exactly how i thought he should, which i can't really say for many other characters

i play simon, so i could probably give you a couple pointers

- smashing the stick forward as you throw his boomerang will make it go super far
- the same technique can be done using forward/backward with the axe to throw it further or not as far
- holy water can be caught, so use it wisely
- down-angled forward airs are useful but scary, since you can accidentally do a down air instead, which will result in an SD if you're edgeguarding, so i often opt for down-angled back airs instead
- down-angled forward smashes are useful for sniping anyone hanging off ledges when their invincibility is gone, and because of the sheer distance that it reaches, less intelligent opponents won't see it coming (AIs probably will, though)
- up smash reaches far enough to strike those standing at the top platform of battlefield-type stages
- his tether recovery is weird because it doesn't use the standard Z-air command, and it doesn't work if you're too close to the ledge, but if the ledge is just above you, you can do an up air and it'll work
- the down tilt followup can be used to swiftly leap across the two side platforms of battlefield-type stages, which is an uncommon but decently effective escape technique that i don't see a lot of people use (simon doesn't have a lot of speedy movement options, so you take what you can get)

Jacob Potila was actually a Jacob Flotilla of lies.- WarTurkey
Yeahhhh this isn't for me. Crippling self esteem issues and constant frustration to the point where I can only play the game for like an hour before getting annoyed is pretty telling.

On the plus side, I have more space on my SD card now :D

Yeah, I'd probably play it more then..

I dunno, I just get no enjoyment out of competitive stuff... at all

It's still pretty fun to watch though, I'd be down for watching any tournaments held here

Imagine playing as Mario when you could be playing as King K Rool, King Dedede, Simon, and Captain Falcon instead

For some reason each time I match with K Rool it starts with a sort of teabagging greeting,  like we both know that we got who we wanted and are happy about it.

Until that faggot start spamming to down grab me.....is when I tech grab him off the bottom of the stage

What even is the point of friend lists if I can't ask Verb to cone kick my ass with Jigglypuff without going to some shitty backwater forum that had nothing to do with the game?

Ready for that sweet Aussie host in the MCC once you get that, unless the game is still region locked

That only applies to solo matchmaking. It sounds like you can just join a party and the game treats the entire group like it’s from the region of the party leader.

So yee can’t wait to go 2 and 46 while you and Boom fight off the sweaties
