super smash bros - LEAK TIME AGAIN (RECAP: Yes, they're really adding Krystal from Star Fox, videos - Games

[QUOTE=Keychain;48238444]Every time I see Rosalina I question why is she in this game[/QUOTE] weird how you think rosalina is awful but think pac man is amazing, they're both incredibly boring to watch/play against. once you realize that all abadango is doing is throwing down the hydrant, charging the key, throwing, rinse and repeat its not really all that impressive or interesting

Once again, if the Luma didn't come back after being KOed, she would not be as obnoxious as she is. Even maybe dropping Luma's HP on every KO as a penalty for being a bad mother.

Rosalina just spams, camps, and has ways to deal with countering characters trying to break her camping, causing her to drag out matches forever with almost no thought process behind it. Pacman could use some more versatility to make him more viable but so could over half of the cast, including Sheik. Rosalina's main perks are pretty much her whole moveset and none of it is enjoyable to play against or watch.

Pacman requires a lot of setting up, timing and changing your patterns in order to catch the enemy off guard once they've adapted to your playstyle. And most importantly of all, he's an rare pick which naturally invokes more excitement and desire for them to win. He has so much stage setup potential with his trampoline, hydrant, and his various throwables that all have different patterns, some in which you can pick up mid-throw and do crazy mixups. All in which the Pacman was doing a lot of when the other player got through his defenses. Rosalina is boring because she's so blatantly straight forward. Incredibly simple abilities with no lag behind any of them so there's no risk in doing anything. Even without Luma she's still able to hold her own easily and time goes by so fast for Luma to come back. At least Sheik has tons of different moves that are drastically different and is actually visually interesting, though I don't find her gameplay exciting at all. I guess you probably thought Snake was boring in other games because all he does is throw grenades and set up C4's.

Oh man, watching Manny's Sonic is painful right now. I feel bad for any player that has to deal with runaway fighters.

Yeah. This is pretty much why I dislike Sonic

Fight 2 of Ally vs Manny is reminding me a little too much of the staredowns of Brawl comp.

Literally running away This is a fighting game, not a survival horror game AHAHAHAHAHAA EAT IT SONIC

i gotta be honest i love watching Manny play. i would loathe fighting against him but making everybody hate him is an accomplishment and he's capitalizing on it

Mario wins by running away from Sonic. Oh the irony.

Haha timed out Sonic.

And then Mario wins thanks to running away. I think that is the first time I'm happy someone won from running away, fuck Manny's Sonic.

[QUOTE=TheWhiteFox1;48238681]i gotta be honest i love watching Manny play. i would loathe fighting against him but [B]making everybody hate him is an accomplishment and he's capitalizing on it[/B][/QUOTE] This is a concept that is hard for me to understand. Then again, Ally just made Manny eat his own medicine.

well that playstyle is what got manny that far

yo how many timeouts are we gonna have this tourney

was hoping Manny won, would've been hilarious

The irony

If only timing out had a penalty to it. Then again, as much as it hurts, I cannot deny that it is a way to win, as lame as it is.

Although he got bopped by the same strat he was employing[/QUOTE] Fighting games are [i]fighting[/i] games. Even in other fighting games with timers, it is possible to run the clock. But in those other fighting games there are some caveats, the only way to effectively run the clock is to keep your opponent away from you and backing up is typically [i]slower[/i] than advancing forward. So in order to run the clock in most every other fighting game, it entails keeping faster-moving person that's bearing down on you away while your evasive options are less effective with your back to a wall. The reason timers exist is to prevent players from stalling forever. If there were no timers, players would need to duke it out, but it'd make it incredibly boring to watch if two stalling-centric players face off.

That was an intense match.

Looks like Hbox's request got through. I wasn't expecting to feel emotional again so soon. [editline]18th July 2015[/editline] I thought they were gonna reveal a character for a moment there.

esam vs ally is so much fun to watch

I love these matches that swings back and forth.

Ness is kinda destined to lose this. Any time Ness will try to recover, Rosalina can just obsolete it.
