    Sephiroth Announced for Smash Ultimate

    I think this is close to the best possible outcome as far as a character reveal goes. I haven't heard much of any backlash over Sephiroth being added, whereas most other options in people's minds seem to split the fanbase in some way (Jonesy, Crash, MC/Doom Guy, etc).

    How to pick a main for smash ultimate

    This isn't a bad method, but I would not recommend that your main specifically be the character you are "best" at. There are dozens of reasons why somebody might pick their main, whether because of their series, kit, or playstyle, but I generally recommend maining a character that you enjoy...

    How do you make the dive kick (ZSS, Sonic, Belmont DAir) sail slowly down?

    AFAIK it happens when you use it right out of knockback. I don't believe it's something you can make occur whenever you want - my understanding is that it's in place to counter immediate dairs back down to safety.

    I'm Absolute Trash Online

    There are a lot of things about online play that can affect your play, but you're right about the slight input lag. There's roughly 6(?) or so frames of delay for online inputs, which seems minute but makes most of the online scene a much different world. Characters like King K. Rool can get...

    How do you deal with rushdown characters as Samus?

    I'm set in that mindset of "hone your main before practicing secondaries", but I feel as though I'm hitting a serious wall when I face characters like Ness or Pikachu. I'm thrown into disadvantage as soon as the match starts, and I struggle to get out of techchase or to even land on the stage...

    Good Days, Bad Days, and Ugly Days

    I absolutely have this experience, and I think it's something people in a ton of hobbies can relate to. This sounds exactly like people going through art block or bad days at work, and I figure it has something to do with failure and our attitude. If you start the day with an unlucky 3-loss...

    How to deal with panic attacks at random times?

    I don't have panic attacks often, but my partner does - what I notice really helps him is this. Squeeze your fists or grip something tightly and try to ground yourself in your surroundings. Take that moment to gradually relax all of your muscles and make sure you arent tensing yourself up, and...

    Sexism in smash bros in general and character design:

    It looks like this thread is being lightly necro'd, so I thought I'd give my 2 cents as a female player. I don't think it's the fault of Smash Bros. at all for "sexy" designs like the Zero Suit. I think it's natural to want to pay homage to Samus' design, just as they did with Bayonetta. In...

    Hey everyone

    Welcome aboard! Donkey Kong seems to be one of the lesser seen characters in Smash these days, so it's great to see people taking a liking to him. I think he's great fun in Ultimate. I look forward you seeing you around!

    Fight The Knight...Excalibur Sonic For Mii Costume Support Thread!

    I'm late to this thread, but with the love that Excalibur Sonic has seen recently in Speed Battle, I can actually see something like this happening. At worst, I would love to see him as some kind of Spirit battle (metal Sonic with killing edge, maybe?). ...What the heck, you've got my support...

    Social THE Social Thread 2.0

    Isn't something called Persona 5 Royal coming to Switch? Legitimate question. Googling it brings weirdly fuzzy results and I know nothing about the franchise.

    Is Smash Really balanced

    For one, I don't think YLink or Pichu are bad characters at all right now. I think an important distinction to make here is the skill floor of some characters. It is much harder to pick up and play characters like Young Link versus somebody "easy" like Bowser. It's difficult to argue that Bowser...

    Hey

    Glad to have you, welcome aboard! I am still a newbie in the smash community myself, but I'd gladly play some friendlies with you if you'd like to get a foot in the door. I look forward to seeing you around!
