A lil series about the smash bros characters evolution through the 4and a half game series thus far in the franchise. starting of course with the original 12, with 4 fighters per page through the 4 games.
 

This time we got the other 4 non inlockable fighters and their evolution through smash bros through the 4 games: Yoshi, Donkey Kong, fox, and Samus. This is just how I view their evoltuions, as well as some info and experience i found through playing the games.
So let's begin

Yoshi, always something new with Yoshi

Yoshi has been my fav character since the beginning of super smash bros. and every game he gets something new to the game. In melee yoshi gained the egg roll move, by brawl he grew wings with his final smash and by smash 4 the devs took a real emphasis on his new posture and improved moves, Yoshi is not a character you should underestimate, especially one on one in for glory mode! in the right hands, yoshi now is someone to take seriously.

donkey kong, the big monkey in the middle

Donkey kong has always been a big powerhouse, he was the strong ape in the first, and despite getting new moves in melee, melee was a game of speed and skill. And a heavyweight like DK just wasn't seen so often. By brawl Donkey kong was at least one of the more nimble heavyweights. Though now in smash 4, the game where heavyweights and power rules, it would seem that the kong got the short end of the stick, with more powerful heavyweights out there like bowser, little mac and ganondorf, this ape is just left in the shadows over them.

Fox, the former speed god

In the first, fox was one of the toughest to fight due to his speedy attacks, his stage was always one of my least fav in the 1 player mode. by melee Fox became one of the high tier gods (cause seriously most melee players just used fox, falco, shiek and captain falcon, pretty much always) and his power kinda remained in brawl, though now he wasn't as op as meta knight was said to be. Though now in 4, you won't find a lot of fox players anymore, he's been nerfed pretty bad, the king has been dethroned from his speedy throne.

Samus, the long range expert and attractor of controversy

Samus has always been a long range expert since the beginning, melee gave her a good strategy, and brawl enabled her to change out of her suit, giving her zero suit version popularity and was sought out very much strategically due to the zero suit being speedier and all. during the development of smash 4, we find samus and her zero suit form have been split, and zero suit's new addition, a pair of high heels, causing some really stupid controversy, even though it has improved their game quite well. my personal headcanon is that samus now has her varia suit on autopilot when she and the suit fight on opposite sides or together.


So anyways comment and enjoy
Smash bros belongs to Nintendo

and yet the "smash fans" say that melee has the most balanced roster. then explain why Fox and Falco are mostly used then.

yea in terms of representation, there still is an overdose of the usual mario, loz and pokemon characters,
but yea tierwise and competitively its the most stale, considering everyone uses the same damn characters, its boring

here are the top tier characters in a nutshell

No one is gonna use Samus with her stupid power suit when zero suit samus performs better

Zelda's gonna have to throw away her real identity, because her alter ego overshadows her in everyway

melee should be renamed starfox arena, because everyone uses Fox and Falco

and no swordsman fights better than Metaknight.

al the more reason why I stay away from the competitive players, they aren't fun to play with really.

I could see Samus watching Iron Man 3, and be alll "HEYY, THAT could  be really useful!"

Will we ever see a remote controlled varia suit in a metroid game? more than likely not.

Fox I thought was the best controlled and as long as you are careful with him you could deal great punishment that is why he is my smash fave.

kingofthedededes73 In reply to ashbasher22 [2015-05-24 19:07:27 +0000 UTC]

he was one of the most agile and a pretty big threat, but its no secret that he's no longer used as much as he used to.

If he gets new moves than he will get better and Falco will be different. Everyone is arguing about the furries but Fox is still greatly controlled. Falco is great too and both are my favourite but voice acting needs to be less whiny and more determined, kind of like what Assault did but imagine if Plantinum games did them well. We need Star Fox to come back to it's main series and be more awesome. Look what they did to Star Fox: Event Horizon and it is on P.C.!!!

yea the thought to bring back the n64 starfox Va was one of the many bad ideas smash 4 had made

but rumor has it that there may be a starfox wiiu coming up. but we'll have to wait and see

I think the KO scream however was epic and he still is my favourite. At least it is not R.O.B. where it's attacks are so stiff and delayed or Charizard doing damage to itself while doing the Fire charge and the Wii U game better be real and having a lot of replay ability due to all the gameplay. Fox still ran faster than most and is great to trick opponents in doing the wrong move.

i have to agree that rob's slow attack speed has made him much harder to use efficiently.....
but charizard's recoil really doesn't affect his ability to still be powerful nonetheless

ashbasher22 In reply to kingofthedededes73 [2015-05-25 21:36:36 +0000 UTC]

Charizard's blitz charge takes damage and could you imagine Shulk or Marth countering the move, it is another reason why Charizard is one of my least favourites.

kingofthedededes73 In reply to ashbasher22 [2015-05-25 21:41:03 +0000 UTC]

despite that though its the only move charizard has that has the recoil, and the damage is worth the power it has, besides its so quick a counter won't always be there in time unless the reaction is super quick. and really shulk is barely a challenge at all, he's probably one of the worst characters in the game.

ashbasher22 In reply to kingofthedededes73 [2015-05-26 21:36:21 +0000 UTC]

Shulk is brilliant when you know how to play as him. I want to see Melia in there because of the potential of what she could use in her staff. If I could see a Xenoblade character that would fit in smash, probably Sharla.

kingofthedededes73 In reply to ashbasher22 [2015-05-26 21:38:28 +0000 UTC]

most people though don't know how to use him so he's pretty much not that great at all, and he easily has one of the worst cpus in the game too.

Personally i don't think he's coming back if they make a 5th game in the series, which could end up having a different director.

Well, improve the control and make the arts activate faster and he will be awesome. I have got a fan pic with over 150 characters, some you will know, some you may not.

well i don't use shulk so it doesn't matter to me, tried him and realized he sucked.

ashbasher22 In reply to kingofthedededes73 [2015-05-27 08:31:05 +0000 UTC]

He did not suck to me and neither did Fox and Falco, you got to practice with the underdogs because it gives you a good challenge. Make sure they fight correctly, I do not like playing as Charizard or R.O.B because they are stiff and easy to take advantage by all others. Dark Pit felt stiffer than Pit to me.

Does this mean that Sonic is a lower tier character in 4?

no, just fox
idk where sonic is, but you don't see him as much so he's pretty much the same

Wow...So many things are true about this. Also, while DK may have been left in the dust, I still personally find him to be the best meteor smasher in my list. Its easy and not so risky to use his meteor smash. Of course, one simple miss could result in a self destruct still...I also agree well with Fox. Specially with his slightly....Ugh, voice in the newest addition. I'm used to it now, but I found it didn't fit so well.

kingofthedededes73 In reply to Maxthewicked100 [2015-05-15 20:57:43 +0000 UTC]

yea, DK has one of the easier meteor smashes, but the easiest one in 4 i'd have to say is ganondorf's.

yea the old n64 voice was used in 4 and it didn't do much to help in his decline in smash 4, how the mighty have fallen...
