Let's not forget that FD is projectile heaven. It's far from fair when you face a character with loads of projectiles. That's why FD is the most polarizing stage. It also gives Captain Falcon a GREAT advantage in Melee because he can abuse his speed and keep out of his opponent's hands, dealing damage when necessary.

That's usually why I cycle through Battlefield after playing FD.

Pic of the day. Tac (on the left) steals your charged power. If you've charged up a lot, he might steal a ton of it. Chase after him quickly to get it back!!

 

 

Smash Run is turning up to be a very interesting game mode. I love City Trial in Kirby Air Ride, so I have high hopes for this as a way to kill time when I get bored of the main mode.

 

I do wonder if any characters would be unlocked from this though.

Pic of the day. The 3DS version will have roughly the same types of Assist Trophies and Pokémon. Just roughly…

 

Interesting stuff, although I'm not a huge fan of the assist trophies.

 

Also, another bunch of promotional pictures surfaced.

"Pic of the day. Tether recovery? Yes, you can! And from even longer range than before. Multiple fighters can latch on--who actually grabs hold is determined by the same rules as the standard ledge grab."

 

Very interesting to see something like this after last week mostly being filler from the direct. Tethers being buffed makes me interested in how good characters with tether recoveries will be this time around.

What are the little lines connecting Link and Samus?

I'm glad tethers are being buffed!

Yeah, I was wondering about those lines too. Anyway, great picture!

ZOMG MAINZ!!!!

64: Captain Falcon, Pikachu
Melee: Samus, Marth
Brawl: Wolf

... but I generally mix it up and play as different characters.

[thepsynergist]

I've been experimenting with new mains for Melee.  Mario is almost as fun as Marth, especially since his Wave Dash has a longer reach and you can combo aerial attacks pretty quickly.  Luigi is pretty fun, as well, however, his recovery options take some getting used to.

Damnit, Jigs needs to get on that list soon!  >_<;

Poor TK. Looking pretty gloomy for your main. Looks like we might not be hearing "PUFF!" lol

Jigglypuff will be in. Count on it.

After the fiasco with EVO, this is a welcoming change of pace.

Confirmed.

If they don't have actual competitive players I'm going to cry.
