Is this thread satire?
Of course the edgy school shooter thinks there’s nothing wrong with the game.
So this is satire?
the game is rated M so you're not old enough to play it anyway

I cannot perform up smash attacks for the life of me. Am I disabled?
it can be hard to get the angle on the control stick right. Do you use up + a or c-stick?
Up + A, I read in a guide that using the right stick for tilts was better
yeah, for sure

you can also increase the sensitivity of the stick, if that feels too weird for you, but that might create adverse effects elsewhere

seems a lot of the game's coolest characters have the most ass recovery this time around

though, i actually don't mind that as long as 3-stock or maybe even 4-stock becomes standard
I suck at recovery with every character so playing as Incineroar hurts

btw what's your friend code

I'm really surprised there are no adjustments for Inkling, K. Rool, or Pikachu.

None of my characters have been affected yet, except Link, who I've decided is too difficult to master anyway, and requires tech that I do not enjoy performing (like recovering with bombs).

the fact that such a movie was able to be created in 1968 is a big part of why it's one of my favorite films as well

if you like movies that make you think, i'd watch pretty much any david fincher movie

1.12 million and they're still not letting me back in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

i've been practicing with simon though, and i'm absolutely delighted with how he plays, he's everything i wanted him to be (but it'll be awhile before i start winning games with him, his recovery is the only thing i dislike)

Jumping with a button is going to take some getting used to. I've played the game for like 30 minutes and all but one of my deaths were from falling off the map and just plummeting down trying to remember how to jump back up. Pretty good otherwise though.
can always force yourself to learn the muscle memory by jumping offstage and seeing how far you can recover from in training mode. Also a good way to learn how deep you can go for edgeguards.

Personally, I keep tap jump on to keep my right thumb free, specifically for attacking out of shield. Makes rest oos free as Puff once you nail the up > down-b timing.
What do the pros use?
buttons almost entirely

notably, hungrybox uses tap jump, but that's merely incidental as melee puff benefits from it for the reasons he described

What's Elite Smash?
basically, it's when your global smash power (GSP) gets high enough, and you start getting queued up against elite players

or at least, that's the idea of it. i was in it briefly after i had achieved approximately 600,000 GSP, but i got beat up shortly thereafter and lost it almost as fast as i got in, and the minimum requirement seems to have risen a great deal since then

GSP is a half-baked ELO player-ranking system, where your rank is literally the exact number of people that you're supposedly better than (and for each character)

so because my GSP with jigglypuff is 1,002,885, that means the game thinks i'm better than 1,002,884 other players, with that character

the working theory at the moment is that elite smash is for the top 1% of online players, which would explain the constant fluctuation, since the strongest players are likely only getting stronger, so the ceiling rises every time

What happened to Gojira? He still post?
he never really posted in the first place

he would visit like once a year to say absolutely nothing and then leave

and people suck his dick like mad for some reason, i never understood it because he doesn't do anything

Press A B together for a special move or something, it was in the settings. Doesn't matter though.
oh, yeah, i forgot that was even a thing

i never use it, but it's not obtrusive or anything, so i leave the option there

Sticks sensitivity high and special attack thing on, I suppose?

Switch is looking good so far. Screen's a bit smaller than I expected though, but not a big deal.
i don't know about putting stick sensitivity on high myself, but i suppose you can do what feels comfortable for you

i have it on low, because unwanted fast-falls, dashes, and smash attacks are highly undesirable to me

not sure what you mean by special attack thing honestly

I'm also going to try Falco. Apparently he's got crazy potential and I can dig that.

What's the best way to control this thing? You use the thumbstick for jumps or the jump button?
buttons are optimal for jumping, and you'll actually want to head over to the controller options to disable stick jump all together, because it only makes it more difficult to perform up-tilts and up-airs without accidentally jumping

also, if you're gonna learn falco, who has the highest jump in the game, it's gonna be very important for you to know how to short hop, and fortunately, there's a new feature which makes that easier than ever (and a bit more fun, i might add)

hitting the jump + normal attack buttons simultaneously (while tilting the stick for the desired aerial, as normal) will allow you to perform short hop aerials, a fairly indispensable technique that will give you an edge in neutral

practice short hop aerials out of shield (OoS) in situations where your opponent is on your ass, or short hop up-airs if your opponent is on a platform above you and is looking vulnerable

without this technique, falco's high-ass jumps will make it extremely difficult for you to hit your mark in any situation, and being high up in the air is a disadvantageous state in general
