Board 8 > Save My Smash Ultimate Character: Day 62! [SMSUC]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Starting 4 save? Not sure how nervous I should be.

---

28th Place:

Marth



With Marth being eliminated, that takes Melee down to 4 characters, Fire Emblem down to 3 characters, Fire Emblem characters that aren't Echo Fighters to 2, and unlockable characters in Melee to 1!

Tomorrow will change to 4 saves! Get ready!

I'll do stats for the three save portion after my exam later today.

Good luck!

Welp, 4 saves per means Lucina's in trouble... as are a lot of others >_>

*raises hand*

I prefer Lucina to Marth, for three reasons: 1) Marth requires too much precision and I'd rather not worry about distance, 2) the "eye candy" element, and 3) Laura Bailey.

You are aware that point 3 doesnt apply anymore right? She doesnt voice Lucina in Ultimate and stopped voicing her in Heroes.

That said, her replacement, Alexis Tipton, is still very good.

Marth is definitely the saucier character

Did not realize that they didn't just remaster the existing clips. But Alexis Tipton is definitely talented too - and Bailey comes with a steep price tag so...

This is where the difference between trades and no-trades really comes into play. The inherently more known and "popular" characters that made it to this point will start dominating since they are much more likely to pick up saves from random people.

Link's really gonna steamroll now

that made it to this point

This is when things get boring and long simply because of no trades. No trades is a more "pure" contest in line with the original idea, But trades create a more exciting, often wild finish, and I think those are why SMFFFC took off.

That and other major long-running SMCs, such as King of the Mountain, seem to have been retired.

Richter who had the worst ASP out of all characters that survived from one save now has the best in the three save portion. No major disappointments besides Daisy who performed really well in two saves and did fairly well here until she got eliminated. Bowser, Captain Falcon, Cloud, and Zelda were all on the verge of death a few times but managed to pull through. And Ryu who was on the verge of death literally every time in the two save portion didn't do half bad this go around. Also Mythra had a better score than Pyra!

Surprised he's so high up after being close to the last safe on one day as I recall

Half of the days he was under the 7th percentile so that's probably why.

He probably would've had the best score if not for his massive choke when he Iron Man'd Ness.

Just for fun I looked up the stats of everyone left that was a character chosen for the "Do You Like This Character?" series. Obviously opinions have probably changed over the time this contest has been held.

*Banjo & Kazooie: 90.29%
Ike: 90.00%

*Banjo & Kazooie were both separate characters so I averaged their scores to give them one collective score. Their scores were both quite similar.

Obviously people's opinions of the dog have changed quite a bit since before Smash 4 was made, he was an annoying nuisance that laughed whenever you failed at Duck Hunt, but now he's a playable character in Super Smash Bros. I personally think he's a cool addition.

---

I'm glad they decided to lean into making him pretty cute with his animations rather than just full troll like. Sure he still has a couple laughing taunts/win poses, but overall he's just a cute dog doing his best with his bird friend.

Argh, figures that on the first day of my vacation my main goes out.
