Isn't Marth's counter knockback fixed while Ike's is variable (or vice versa)? That would make a big difference.

Don't know Brawl well. I know Roy's counter is variable knockback and Marth's is fixed in Melee.

Anyone use Dr. Mario in Melee? I like to use him sometimes and people are like da fuq and I own them with his wonky fair.

Brawl had damage reflected based on how much it would have dealt.  Marth's coefficient was 1.1x the damage, while Ike's was 1.2x.  Both used the same knockback function I believe.

Y'ever counter sleep with Roy? It's great.

I can't even say I'm disappointed that Chrom isn't actually a fully-fledged fighter, because I didn't expect Lucina or the Avatar to make it, and now we have both, I don't mind Chrom not being the representative, even if I'd love him to have been. I wish there was a way to somehow import your character's settings from your Awakening file, but the fact that we get both male and female Avatars is still pretty great, and now I'm even more excited for this game.

Robin's Final Smash reminds me a lot of Project X Zone when you summon your ally in battle to assist you in battle.

I can't take it

Lucina ended up Robin Chrom's spot.

I'm going to be using Lucina a lot.  Speed has always been how I play Smash, and with Marth seeming a little slower in the fact that you can't do 2 forward-air attacks in one short hop (from what I saw in the tournament), I'm liking Lucina more and more.

 

Oh, btw, you can play as Lucina in Brawl already.

Well the new artwork gave me a new, badass avatar, and I'm just getting more and more excited for this game. But while we're all freaking out over Lucina, Robin, and Falcon, some of us missed this:

 

 

That's an amazing contribution, though also surprising to see a Rayman trophy without Rayman being a playable character, seeing as he's not from a Nintendo franchise. Is this some hint of things to come, or is Smash 4 just throwing in tons of new third-party trophies into the mix? 

[nicklegends]

YES

Falcon's back!

I was afraid he'd be cut because of Nintendo's subtle phasing out of the F-Zero series. He seems especially vengeful in this game. I wonder what his stage will be (provided he gets one)—there haven't been any F-Zero console releases since 2003...

YES

NO

Pick a different pic like bird vs. bird instead:



Nobody messes with Megaman, not even Falcon.

Some insight from Sakurai as to the decision to include Lucina and Robin over Chrom:

 

 

He's wrong about Robin not using dark magic though, he can if you reclass him. :tard:

[thepsynergist]

I'm kinda sad that Marth and Lucina will be almost completely identical.  I was hoping she'd be slightly faster, or have something to set her apart.  However, with all the FE characters in Smash now, it'll be hard to stay that sad for long.
