My Mom just bought me an SSBB Guide, and...

[Blue Flash]

It says Kirby is a 5. Why is he rated a 5, when he is, in fact, one of the better characters?

It also says MetaKnight is a 6 out of 10, which i really find hard to believe

 

[A1lion835]

Ah, the Prima Guide. Completely unreliable and stupid. He has no idea what he's talking about.

Never use it, except for the SSE guide if you ever do it.

 

[Blue Flash]

You have the Prima SSBB guide too? All Prima guides must be stupid then.

But what's really stupid is that they rate characters on a scale of 1-10, and yet no one is ranked lower than a 5, and no one is ranked higher than a 9.

lol i did the SSE months ago, so it's basically useless to me now. Maybe I'll give it to my scrub friend, or just sell it.

The Prima Guide is useless b/c it was written after 1 week of observing brawl and didn't have any AT's in it. That's why guides here are so much better; the writers have spent immense amounts of time on them and they can be updated at any time. Publishable guides for fighting games don't really make any sense...so many different techniques will be discovered, it'll be useless.

A week after observing Brawl? Thats no excuse if you ask me

Smashboards needs to make a real guide(although it wouldn't make sense, since SSBB's metagame is still developing, would probably be like 2000+ pages long, and it but at least it would be better than the Prima guide)

 

[A1lion835]

Yea...a guide like that would be WAY too long.

Should this have been in the General/Social Discussion Thread?

Probably...on AiB, this sort of thread would probably just be left to die, but we have strict modding here (notice how half the threads on the first page are locked?).

 

[Blue Flash]

o.o

I didn't notice that until now! And most of them are MY threads! o.o

 

[jc_off_the_heezay]

LoL

**** mods.
Well I guess they know what's best.


Nice quote on your mom dude! XDDDDDDDDD

 

[Blue Flash]

Thanks. I made that quote when my mom didn't let me go online, just after i found a way to access Wifi

 

[A1lion835]

Wiis can't goddam catch viruses. But then again, she's a mother...logic does not apply to her.

 

[Blue Flash]

At least your mother lets you go online.

I have a perty valid question.

Why the **** is this still open.

 

[OmegaXis]

The prima guide people fail. I actually played one of them when they were advertising something on youtube. I two-stocked them.

 

[t!MmY]

I remember my friend got the Prima guide when it came out. I was like... 0_0 X_X

What I thought was cool was how they mentioned the Kirbycide... but unfortunately didn't give me credit for coining the phrase. V_V

 

[Falconv1.0]

Better question-

Why the **** are you people still posting in this thread.

 

[A1lion835]

What I thought was cool was how they mentioned the Kirbycide... but unfortunately didn't give me credit for coining the phrase. V_V

What I also thought was cool was how they said some of his throws could do it...melee anyone? Oh, and how he filled up most of the "general/advanced technique" space with "rarely seen in tourneys...hard to win with...5 jumps...can float above opponents and drop down with stone." And they said "that some smash players have nicknamed Kirbycide." Not some, ALL non-scrub smashers use that. X_X

And how they don't mention WHO figured out you could control Nana after "actions that temporarily [had the] primary climber pause."

And I'm suing if they don't have Ninja Spiking in the next edition >:O
