You, me, other dudes, Smash, Time Matches, 2 minutes 30, 9pm. YES!

That's pretty much what I think will happen.

I've only just realised that at some point, I've gotten every Spirit. You'd think there'd be a milestone for that, but... I'm running out of stuff to do on the Single Player side. (Still begrudgingly working toward that 200 online match challenge) I hope that April update gives us a Boss Rush mode. I'd play that forever! Dunno how I pulled that one off. I always feel like i'm playing super clumsily whenever I play as Diddy. Guarantee I flop on Lucas' route next, despite him being one of my favourite characters. Either way, that's 11 successes out of 39 characters.

Next League Night: Tonight 8pm Room 1: @BowserBasher is host @Glen-i @BowserBasher @martinist (maybe) @RedShell @S.C.G

@Dcubed does. The saddo. Which means I have access to one too.

I mean, I like Tetris 99, so I'll probably enter just for the sake of playing Tetris 99. But I'd be utterly delusional to think I'm even in with a chance.

We have our first online event. In a cool move, the top 999 players will get 999 gold coins on their eShop account. So you know, there's a prize you'll never win.

Don't you dare! We just got away from that nonsense!

Yeah, I might have to jump in on StarTropics. Always been curious.

It's a launch title N64 First Person Shooter, that should tell you plenty. Honestly, if the sequel is coming to Switch as well, you should just get that instead. Way better. Fun fact, Turok was the first N64 game I owned... Because I wanted Mario 64 and it was sold out and my dad had to get me a game to go with my new N64. That box art had the weirdest looking Yoshi I ever saw.

Well, go ahead then.

You do realise that all of those tweaks to Aegislash would effectively nerf it, right? It already has to give up a move slot (For King's Shield) in order to change stances. And that also effectively costs a turn to use. And as for the aspect of stance changing as a whole. Competitive Pokémon Battling revolves around raising Pokémon to specialise in (mostly) one particular role. So why would I take a Pokémon like Charizard and ever not have it in an Offensive stance? Most Pokémon just aren't built to be that flexible. Stance changing is a good guess going by what little we know of what the icon on in the logo means. But I don't think that's how it'll be implemented. If it is, it'll just add obvious power creep to those Pokémon that have a high stat.

OK, guys. Who hasn't had an opportunity to put up 3 games for voting by now? Because what will we play otherwise? Modern games!? That's unthinkable!

So basically, Aegislash's sole defining feature would no longer be it's defining feature? Hmmm... I dunno about that... That's the one thing that's making me think it's not that. At least, not in that way...

Today, during Smash community center day, I learned that when you use Pac-Man's Neutral B, the fruit can actually damage opponents while it cycles through the options. I just keep learning new things and I love it. I also got an opportunity to attempt a Co-op 9.9 run with "Crazy good with Incineroar" kid while the others took a break to eat lunch. He went for Incineroar, so I chose to do Pokémon Trainer's route. (Themed co-op runs are half the fun!) We got to Mewtwo/Master Hand at 9.7 intensity and some of the other kids were legit gasping when one of us got hit by Master Hand. Unfortunately, we blew it right at the end. The collective groan of "Awwww!" was kinda funny. Oh well, maybe next time...

You have put the difficulty on easy, right? Also use the Celebi support spirit. That's how I did it on Normal difficulty.

Speaking of that, I really hope this region's dragon Pokémon is inspired by the Welsh flag. Two reasons why I want this. It'd be really cool. Especially if it has a weird spear tongue. When I catch one, I can nickname it "Welshy" and then whenever it faints, I can drop to my knees, joycons in hand and do this.

What if you flip the region upside down? https://imgur.com/LQwY61x

4 months after the game is out, I've just gotten to the 1000 battles mark... And all I got was a Sarky message. I play a lot of Smash.

Oh man, Lukas was one of my favourite male voices in that game! Berkut outdoes him in awesomeness, but Lukas is definitely up there. Just to clarify, I like Ike's voice in Ultimate. The fact he sounds strangely seductive makes him more memorable than his previous voice.

Yeah, I tried it with Little Mac's rapid jab, completely impossible. But this definitely has potential if your reactions are quick enough. Can't wait to bust this out on that kid at the community centre who's good with Incineroar... That'll teach him for being great with a character I'm rubbish with.

Hmmm... I've never considered using it like that. Interesting. I might have to play around with that. Wouldn't that cause issues with someone being able to combo Shulk easier seeing as he doesn't go as far? EDIT: Yeah, you're right, when you're at low damage, Shield really lowers the hitstun you can receive from weaker attacks, letting you get in quick counter attacks before the opponent's end lag ends. I managed to use it to somehow activate Vision in the middle of getting hit by a combo! That's really cool! It's a great way of switching things up from using Buster at the start and potentially throwing people off. Thanks @Jonnas!

I'm free on Fridays and Saturdays as well if anyone wants to give me a shout. Post Mario Kart gaming just feels like tradition at this point, you see. But I'd be happy to play more Smash anytime then.

I'm not normally that good with projectile focused characters, so getting to the final boss with 9.9 intensity felt awesome. And then I beat Galleom with no continues! Yay! There you go @RedShell, that's how someone can be good with Snake. EDIT: Make that 10. Unfortunate continue on the hands, Ike's too slow for that nonsense. Seriously though, Ike talks like he's in a porno. Got a funny clear screen when I was doing this route.

Done-ion Rings! But seriously? Trump only cares about what America would get out of a deal with us? What an unprecedented surprise!
