Board 8 > Smash Bros Ultimate Topic 3: Mii Swordfighter Edition

(+) Yeah! (+)

finished completing century smash with everyone

... sad I didn't get a Milestone pop-up :|

at least the high score switches to total time instead of counting the accumulated kills since that would just end up like 7400 for everyone

Did that give any actual info about Joker in Smash other than saying he'll be in it?
---

I dunno. I don't speak Japanese

He wrote some things about Joker recently though:

---

Apparently there's what's probably a glitch where Olimar's pikmin get way bigger boosts from spirits than normal, so he can be used to cheese a lot of tough battles.
---

Be sure to get the exclusive Mario Party spirits starting now.
---

finally getting to serious attempts at All Star smash

...

i am not doing this one with every character that's for sure

Is there a full list of these? I know the Golden Mushroom is set to spawn at 10:00 AM and PM.
---

According to the news pop-up, only Golden Mushroom, River Survival, and Dice Block are exclusive. The first time I went in, Golden Mushroom was pinned, the River one was also there, and the Dice showed up with the first refresh.

I played for the first time since Christmas Eve, when I took my Switch to my parents house to game with my brother. We were using a top-of-the-line monitor with practically no input lag. I've gotta say, it does make a difference when compared to my big TV. I might need to replicate that setup if I wanna get serious about online play.
---

Got the three new spirits. It looks like they're #1300-1302, though; what are 1298 and 1299?
---

those were the ones for having save files for Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee

I have the Pikachu one
---

Fought against Mii Swordfighter and Little Mac tonight.

Both of them are SUPER obnoxious.

Oh

That's dumb. Guess I'm never gonna have 100% :(

Been maining Lucina instead of Marth. Not much of a change, really, for... obvious reasons. I like her as a character more and as I've grown older I've tended toward female characters far more than I used to, anyway.

Game's really fun. My roommates and I clock a few hours every week and I want to go online against Leon and my friend Kalin soon. I haven't touched Spirits Mode whatsoever yet because I'm bummed it can't be played co-op. But I'll get started on it sometime for sure. Right now I'm wrapping up postgame content for Let's Go, Eevee and approaching 165 hours on BOTW though, so... yeah.
---

I think I might be settling on Palutena as my main, much to my surprise

She seems fun. I messed around with her for a little while the other day and she was almost Rosalina levels of "This is very damn different."
---

Yeah, I enjoy playing with her a lot. I had went through most of WoL with Snake, but I use smashes too much and his side smash is just too slow against human players who won't walk into it. I played ZSS a lot too, but I'm pretty bad about selfdestructing with her down aerial.

"Use smashes too much" was practically my middle name for half my tenure during the Brawl days, so I feel you there. I was lucky enough with Marth's speed that for a while I felt like there was no reason not to use his smashes religiously. Somehow I slept on the ridiculous piercing/staggering potential of fast B presses.

Suffice it to say I play Lucina with a ton of non-smash moves these days, heh.
---

Playing Ike in Smash 4 broke me of my smash attack habit pretty quick lol

Relearned it during WoL though, unfortunately.

You can still get them on the Spirit Board. Theyre just gifted to you if you have the Lets Go saves.
---

Are you sure? I have all of the normal spirit board spirits; I guess I could have just been really unlucky and found neither of them before finding all of the normal ones, but that seems fairly unlikely.
---

Well, I have save data for both so I cant confirm myself, but Nintendo Australia's Twitter mentioned that you can unlock them by completing challenges and Serebii specifically mentions Spirit Board in the listing for them.

I wonder if you still need a save for one of the games, then the other will show up in the spirit board
---

is there a reason I'd want to not sell my smash tags?
---

Why would you sell them?
---

for $$$
---

There's little need for money anyway and there's better ways to farm gold.
---

but is there a reason to keep them
---

To show off how many people youve beaten.

Yeah I thought that's all they were for. Seems super strange to me that you can sell them.

What'sa matter? Scared?
---

His forward special Carrie's you up and counts as a recovery so freezes you out of other actions. So it misses people straight in front of you and makes you die
---

Yeah except its got a crapload of knockback.

Seems kinda unfair that he free falls after his side-b but neither Fox nor Falco do...

Yeah, I was expecting them to change it like they changed it for Fox and Falco. I guess they didn't because it gives you a little bit of height?
---

Its because of the height and knockback. Unfair? Maybe.

Never liked wolf going back to brawl
---

Managed to get 9.9 in classic today with Little Mac of all characters. I got up to 9.9 before I even started the Master Hand/Crazy Hand fight so that was very nice.
---

Little Mac was a easy 9.9 yeah. The ones where it's almost always 1v1s are the easiest to score high with.
