I didn't see a thread about them, but I just splurged and bought all of the Smash DLC, and I have no one to talk about these characters with, so.

Ryu is godlike. SO fun to play. I expected him to be a little awkward because of how they designed him, but it's actually quite fluid, and as a Street Fighter player, I adore the fact that they retained many of his combos from that game.

Haven't tried Roy yet, but I'm super excited to (he was my main in Melee, after all).

Haven't tried Lucas yet, but I don't really care to. lol

All are fun to use.
Pichuuuuuuuuuuuu is god tier with Lucas but I prefer to use Ryu due to the sheer amount of combos.

The new ones seem really cool, hopefully they are fairly balanced.

However does anyone else think giving Little Mac that K.O meter was just a bad idea? He's already overpowered in some areas so giving him a potential one hit kill move is ridiculous.

I was hoping they would add the Felyne from MH

No because if you stand on the edge and backthrow you can kill from 0%

not always, which negates that

I've found only 3 or so competent Little Macs and one of them is TBlocks.
All most I've found do is side special, counter and dash attack.
Predictable.

I'm not talking about skill level, but character design. Nobody has a move as strong as that, and Little Mac if used properly is already good enough without that 1 hit K.O

His Smash attacks can mop the floor with people. He's the only character that I think is super unbalanced.

It really does depend on the player. The best way to beat a Little Mac is by focusing on reading their attacks.

Either Roy sucks, or I suck, but Roy isn't even fun to play, I'm sad to report. He feels like Shulk--awkward, clunky, and he has the most godawful neutral-A I've ever seen. Not to mention, much of the properties of all his attacks have not carried over from Melee at all (namely his down-tilt not propelling his opponent upward anymore, which SUCKS). I could learn to adapt, but it's gonna be a slog.

I do appreciate that they made him a semi-clone, though, rather than an all-out clone.

lol at people disliking the KO punch. It's soooo predictable and easy to avoid it's almost entirely useless.
When a Mac gets a KO punch just keep distance and dodge whenever it gets near. Mac loses it after like to attacks anyway so you know the other player is going to want to use it right away.

let's just give everyone a free KO move, then, because they'd all be predictable and useless

Honestly how many times have you been KO'd from 0 damage by a Little Mac KO punch?

that's really not the point

Then what is the point?
A character has a move that no other character has?

it's not OP, it's braindead

I am realy liking Ryu

If anyone's online now I'd be down for some matches.

sure, but only if you feel like playing a bad ryu

That's alright, it's not like you have to keep playing as him you can always just switch to your main. Gimme a couple minutes to warm up in For Glory and I'll join your room.

why do you always play on that stage

it's not seriously legal, is it

Lemme give my input for this:

Is the KO Punch retarded? Yes, it's braindead. Yeah, it's easy to avoid, just space yourself, but the concept is ridiculous and it's actually easy to set it up (d-tilt, B)

Is Little Mac OP? Lolno he has the worst recovery in the game just get him off stage and gimp him.
