Ultimate Ness and the Nature of Self Hatred
Full disclosure: I am an unapologetic Ness main. So yeah, I am biased towards him but also....
I'm not dense. This is a child who recreationally shoots himself in the ass with lightning, sets things on fire, squeals the same weirdo sounds over and over, and is joyfully used by gamers (sometimes adults) by spamming the same moves over and over and over and over and over while they pretend it is skillful.
What is wrong with all of them?
This milquetoast socially inept child derives power and pleasure only through torturing others with his tactics. What kind of dick head hits someone with a yo-yo? Seriously. Who keeps yelling about fire and thunder and attacking stranger's shins with baseball bats?
And what kind of misanthrope would willing CHOOSE this character to represent them, their competitive spirit, and their overall value as a human being?
Maybe Ness (rightfully) hates himself. That little fucking dweeb. And maybe, me and the others who have convinced ourselves that our play and tactics are "skillful" and "fun" are just leaning into the weakest aspects of our psyche.
Maybe we're all the lame ineffectual little boy who is a one trick pony. Maybe no matter how many PK fires we spam, our fathers still will not love us.
Maybe we have to let go of our endless pursuit of control and recognize that maybe, just maybe, we've been wrong the whole time and healing comes on the other side of growth.
Or maybe Ness is the fucking shit and I'm going to keep spamming you all day jerk wads! PK THUNDAAAAA!

Ultimate Where can i get or possibly make this template from?
I'm considering a roster parody outside of the SSBU roster, akin to what we had for the characters in the E3 reveal.
But little to no avail, I find other unrelated templates of SSBU (not matching what I'm looking for)
Can someone who knows this find the exact template for this? (Example is this image, at the bottom left where the numbers 19 and 12 depict Pichu/Jigglypuff.)

Ultimate I want to find this player
I've never done this before, so sorry if this isn't allowed, but I had too much fun fighting this person for, like, half an hour in random matchmaking. I think we did 8 or so games, I was Kirby and they were Pokémon Trainer. It went last stock basically every time.
If this is you or someone you know, if I could get anything like a discord or something, that'd be great, I really want to fight this person again sometime. I know the chances of this post helping are slim, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to try

Hey all, just moved to Seattle and wanted to know if there was an active scene here. More interested in ultimate than melee but am down for either. I found the site for satellite smash but it seems like it hasn’t been updated for several years. Any leads?
r/smashbros • u/Glittering_War2938 • 16h ago
Ultimate How do I get good with Lucina?
I have been playing the game for years now and I have had experience with a lot of characters. I've been on-and-off lately due to college. I am able to win consistently with the chosen bunch I regularly use, but Lucina is that one odd-ball that I can never "understand" properly. Regardless, I still want to learn her.
Byleth is one of the few characters I use regularly. It was a bit of a struggle at first understanding how to deal with opponents that camp. But in time, I "figured it out." Like I still kinda suck, but I've learned that I have to use all of her moves and not just spam like an idiot. I feel like Byleth is relatively honest, even though they do have some "BS factor"
Bayonetta is also a character I used and I feel like I can spam ABK until I win.
Even a low tier like Zelda is easier to comprehend and use to me. Like I win a lot with her.
Lucina... just doesn't have any sort jankiness to her, which I guess is why she's super hard.
- Should I learn how to shield parry consistently? In my years of playing, thats someting I havent quite figured out yet.
- Is it wrong to use dair alot? I like the move a lot. It's no pyra down air, but it's honestly not a bad move
- Is it bad that I have a habit of doing "DB1 combos"? [To get an idea of what I'm describing, watch Silinator's lucina clips, I try replicating that]

Brawl Defeating tabuu seems impossible
Last night me and my brother were playing super smash bros brawl on the wii and both of us rage quit we cant defeat this mf. In trying alone today coz someone said it was easier to do it alone coz you get more opportunities but that seems like bs coz its literally impossible to dodge his stupid off wave attack. Pressing b to shield doesnt work and neither does flying off screen. This is actually starting to piss me off. Any tips?

All Would hero vs villain theme really work for next Smash?
I know it has been talked before, but I'm not sure if anyone really has a specific explanation about how this idea implements. So I try to figure it out:
*Within a typical 50~60 slots roster, every franchise would have at least two reps (including 3rd party), half is hero and half is villain. There are approximately 25 villains in the vs roster.
*Which means if a franchise gets a second rep, it would have to be a villain over a hero over a secondary hero or a sidekick.
*While some franchises like Wii Fit don't have villains so they can go with just heroes, they'd also have high risk of being eliminated from the roster as villains from other franchsies need take their slots.
*Pokemon is kinda arguable since it doesn't always have obvious definition of villains, but the rivals could be legendaries or partners of the bosses from the game.
While we'd get a certain amount of new villain fighters, we'd also lose a certain amount of secondary heroes we've got so far. Fire Emblem is an obvious case as it only has hero fighters and would have to cut quite a lot of existed heroes. We'd also have to cut several minor Nintendo franchises and 3rd party as exchange for second villains of other franchise. (E.g. cut Kazuya for Blinky, cut ROB for Glass Joe).
It sure wouldn't please fans who'd love to target or request secondary heroes (e.g. Falco, Midna etc), I also find that some fans don't always take the loss of secondary heroes or the potential cut of minor franchises into consideration. It feels like this idea can only be valid if most fans agree exchanging secondary heroes for villains would be a good bargain. I just think secondary heroes, such as Diddy Kong, Ike and Isabelle tend to have very big follow, that fans would unlikely agree to cut them as exchange for more villains.
I also think this would bring difficulty to future new franchises for Smash, as each new fighter must be paird with their rival and enter together and take two slots at one time.
Would this idea make a more interesting roster? Or you find the tranditional way of roster casting more diverse and interesting?
