I’ve been playing ultimate for 6 years and I’ve never got a single character into elite, ik gsp doesn’t madder but when I see people get to elite smash in under week or have every character completed the more I want to get it. I just don’t get it.

Ultimate I can’t hit nairs to save my life

6 Upvotes

I love playing link and I’m well aware that nair is a pretty integral part of his kit. I just suck at hitting them in the heat of the moment. There’s always something happening so I’m always using some input on my stick. I’ve had jump on ZL for a long time now and that hasn’t made it easier. Any tips for consistently hitting nairs would be really helpful thanks.

All question what if Smash Bros kept updating

0 Upvotes

Now imagine a world where in our timeline Steve was the final one who was added more we're added and kept coming who do you think would be added

to me It's Waluigi I know everyone wants him in smash and I feel like it's finally time we did I also feel like More Sonic charecters would come because just having Sonic is boring so I think we'd have Tails and Eggman as charecters that'd fit Sonic and maybe Shadow because fans can't get enough of him and for I feel like Bendy for Horror because Horror games have no representation in Smash

Now I want you to come up with some smash charecters to add to this fictional scenario but before I go have a good day and hopefully i'll comment on you

Other Question for Ganondorf Mains

0 Upvotes

Ganondorf is terrible in Smash, both in competitive and in inspiration. As someone who deeply values the inspiration of Smash characters and loves seeing characters well represented, I think Ganondorf is awful.
I have a few ideas for how I can fix the king of evil in Smash, and later I will post that rework concept, but I would like to know something; should he stay bad?
I know many Ganondorf mains main him because he's hard, so, for my rework, should I keep him undertuned?

By the way, the spoilers are some moves in the moveset. I think it's valuable to keep some information private for people who wouldn't like to know.

Neutral B: Is now releasable on any frame after 27, doing a minimum of 2%, and a nerfed maximum of 28% and the turnaround punch is gone, though if the move does not connect, it leaves a projectile much like Dedede's Gordo that can be hit by any move in any direction, though hitting it makes it do less damage proportional to the damage of the move moving it, and does not do any damage if it is stationary. The move also loses its Super Armor, and when used midair, Ganondorf floats and does not stay stationary if it doesn't connect, automatically going diagonally below and in front of him. You cannot move while floating.

Up B: Now does 75% the distance of Dark Dive, and is an omnidirectional teleport, with frame data similar to Sheik's. When you teleport perfectly onto someone, you still do the original grab.

Down B: Is now chargeable, and the charge takes 13 frames to reach the higher tier. The higher tier phases through projectiles, and moves 75% of the normal distance.

So, what is your opinion on this? Please let me know.

Edit: I would like to clarify that the proposed move changes are the most extreme changes I would propose, and also, I mainly want to know if you would play a Ganondorf whose most changed moves are Neutral Special, Up Special, and Down Special.

Ultimate Modding

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, Im not sure if this is the sub for this but I recently got a switch to mod smash since there are so many amazing moveset mods now. I am on the most recent path but cant get any modded movesets to work. My game crashes on startup. I've installed all the plugins right as far as I can tell but still nothing.

Other If it was implemented in a future game (because using P2P again would probably piss-off many), how do you think rollback would work for...more casual matches?

0 Upvotes

For competitive matches, no problem. These tend to be 1v1s with no items and on somewhat simple terrain with no hazards. The netcode can manage that with no issue.

But for casual matches, we have stuff like free for alls, items and stages that are less straightforward and have some hazards that almost change how you play in there.

Because very few games have Smash' level of casual appeal, we have to use an actual Smash game as reference, so we'll use Slippi's party mode for Melee.

Frame stuttering is a thing in that mode, and the overall workload is quite higher than competitive matches, so to minimize it, they fixed the ruleset somewhat for casual.

That doesn't seem so bad, but just like people hated when Smash 4 For Glory didn't gave competitors more versatility, this approach might do the same for casual.

It wouldn't surprise me if rollback's difficulty of implementation for casual play was the thing keeping it from being implemented officially for Smash at all

But I feel like it has to happen still...pretty much every fighting game nowdays has rollback...if Smash uses P2P yet again...people would complain it's outdated on arrival.

Rollback is pretty much the one thing needed to prevent a laggy experience online, which, pretty much everyone suffers (unless you're using that delay based mod).

Anyways, what do you think about the topic? Write below
