Ribbonchads... we lost

>with Ribbon Girl
*Springtron

Because they were waiting for this event to end to choose between Spring Man and Ribbon Girl.

That’s Spring Man’s alt.

Because given the current circumstances limiting production, taking Spring Man's AT model and expanding it to a full character would be a very quick way to put a character out with minimal effort.

>Springtron replaces Spring Man as the Assist Trophy
>Spring Man's original Spirit is changed to Springtron while he gets a new Fighter Spirit.

stop coping and accept the fact he's an AT and that's the end of it.

Had he been planned to be a fighter he would have been removed as AT like Isabelle did.

Because it's going to be his ARMS 2 design and the fact that he's an assist trophy is currently his biggest. "But wait, he can't be a character". Nintendo knows about all the dumb fan rules and are playing it up. They are going to shatter expectations. People are going to think it's one of the characters that isn't a spirit, like Max Brass or Byte and Bark. Then get surprised when it's Springman and Ribbon Girl.

Let's be real it's gonna be a Hero situation. Spring, Ribbon, Ninjara and Minmin are going to be playable because they're the most basic humans of the bunch with colors based on those not in.

>He thinks her gorillian jumps will help

Get fucked

Springtron is incredibly vulnerable after the burst, just hit him during the cooldown and play defensively.

is there even a tier list or is too complicated with the gloves combinations

>Nintendo can see over a year into the future and realize that they would still want to do DLC beyond the first pass

Obviously it wasn't planned, you idiot. Sakurai included the AT and spirits because they were 'too late'. Nintendo realized that a pass 2 could be just as big a seller as the first and wanted to kick it off with a series that didn't make the initial cut. You think that Nintendo wouldn't go with the main character? Unless the "Ryu" of ARMS 2 isn't Springman, it's unlikely it wouldn't be him.

there's a tier list with just the fighters' special abilities and their stats. no clue about a tier list for actual arms though.

Chrom is still Robin´s Final Smash despite being a fighter..

More then likely. I honestly can't imagine anything else. Replace the AT with Springtron and it's as good as done. Minmin spirit becomes Lola, Ribbon Girl becomes Machina and the like. Seems pretty easy and will likely be gone over in the direct.

>why yes, I do play the best fighter in the game. How could you tell?

bro they don't give a fuck if they gave a shit about that crap then ken and incineroar wouldn't have been the last two revealed and byleth wouldn't have been the 5th dlc. Nintendo and Sakurai really don't give a fuck about online sentiment outside of "stop fucking twitter spamming us"

Nice fan story

All the smash fags are saying characters that are already spirits like Min Min and Twintelle

The fact that people are STILL insisting that the AT and Spirits rule is still in place is enough of a reason to make Nintendo think that keeping Springman a secret is ok.

when did you realize arms was a better competitive fighting game than smash?

Why do you think Nintendo would be so invested in smash speculation, and also know about all the shitty fan rules?

I played the trial and jeez some of those bonus events were cancer as fuck

>dude infinite rush lmao
>dude 10 billion bombs lmao
>dude your arms are big and you die in 3 hits lmao

But party crashes give you a fuck ton of coins so it's good for the arms getter because somebody thought plus arms were a good idea and they needed to double the grind.

Maybe not Nintendo. But Sakurai sure as shit is invested in it. Nintendo only cares if it's an ARMs representative but Sakurai likely picked which character to chose from for an ARMs rep.

I fought for my toothpaste nigga, get fucked Ribbonfags.

The netcode wasn't as shit

The game had developers from the Mario Kart team which by default makes it one of the best online games on the switch

>I thought Master Mummy was cool, he's a large mummy monster who also looking for his family, but is also very natrually designed into the concept of arms, other characters make it seem like it's drawn upon but being a mummy, it was very natural and that's why i chose him.

>But Sakurai sure as shit is invested in it.
He has literally said he doesn't even look that shit. And there's no reason to doubt him, since a middle aged man really wouldn't be interested in the online screaming of hundreds of thousands of maladjusted teenagers and manchildren

based and pearlywhitespilled

>cancer as fuck
>not fun as fuck

That reminds me

What was the purpose of having the option to makes your Arms bigger, it's not online until the events but it's available offline

the moment it was common knowledge that it had better online than whatever garbage smash has

When is this game going to go on sale?
I liked the demo but $60 is way too fucking high.

>Nintendo games
>Getting Cheaper

Your better off getting a used version from Gamestop

Do you really think they're gonna develop a new character in 2 months? I'm pretty sure there's like 4 people working on the game right now.

Also consider that during Byleth's presentation in January, Sakurai said they recorded it back in November I believe. So if Byleth was in that seemingly very playable state like 2-3 months before he was released, I feel like more goes into developing a fighter than one might think.

Like most Nintendo games, it goes on sale a couple times a year on the eShop, but they only get 30% discounts

Where did people get the idea that ARMS characters are just glorified skins? All of those characters have vastly different abilities, they're not going to share the same slot. Sakurai's going to just pick one fighter and give them all the unique gimmicks and signature ARMS they're supposed to have.

>but the koopalings and hero!

Just play Helix

What are the best ARMS in the game? I have no idea what to use

Bubb is god tier

Depends on who you're playing as.

>play arms during the testpunch three years ago
>think it's a terrible wagglan memegame, shittier powerstone
>tries it again this month with the free trial with the gamepad
>hey it's actually fun
>looks up tech on youtube
>there's tons of subtle mechanics the game never explains to you
arms must be the most poorly marketed game in nintendo's history

If you're using Min Min, an elec arm on her left is god tier.

A lot of arms are good, it depends on what you value

Disrupting arms like wind and elec arm are great but sometimes you want to fucking punch them with good damage so Nade Arm and Bubb are great for that

This is why people say that ARMS was poorly marketed. Not due to its marketing campaign, but due to the game not telling you about all this fucking tech.

Yeah I'm thinking he's joining Smash

Ive seen people ditch the game saying it's trash or "It's always the same to watch" only to find out that youtuber only quit because he sucked ass and didn't know the tech

I still don't understand what Cobra Kid's gimmick is, im pretty sure everyone else can dash out of a shield

If we get blessed with a sequel, what does the game need so it attract more audiences?

Character specific supers instead of just Rush for everyone is probably the #1 thing.

But how can we improve the game that isn't just meme complaints by the smash fags?

When his arms are charged, he gets a high jump and also gets the longest dash in the game. Also his arms are pretty large for his size/speed.

While charged? Jesus, that explains why i never noticed

>That one youtuber who made guides for all characters and streams with viewers, especially more recently with Smash

>His last video was 11 months ago

Shame, i really wanted to see his reaction to Arms getting in smash

Story Mode with missions, bosses and voice acting. Maybe add more modes beyond Normal fighting. I guess they could try to bring in the Splatoon crowd with a hub and themed party crashes

Better, more in-depth tutorial. Fighting games live and die on good tutorials. For the normies, a character-specific story mode that helps you learn tech unique to each character. Keep Grand Prix as an arcade-type mode to just farm coins from. Add bandages/damage between rounds on the character that lost the previous round. Add end-of-game win quotes for characters to add additional character.

>He doesn't main Max Brass

>He doesn't start every battle with a new opponent using the Silver color only to change to Gold after beating them

It took me too long to realize there's 2 different charges, i keep thinking i need to release before the first charge for Springman/Tron's shockwave

This game's tech needs better explanations holy shit

I like to think lore wise that the reason Max Brass and Springman have the same abilities are because Spring Man actually idolizes him

>Add end-of-game win quotes for characters to add additional character.

Kind of hard when like only 3 characters can speak english, but i guess text is fine
