| == Double jump and charge shot. ==
| |
|
| |
| Double jump doesn’t cause Dark Samus to somersault. Charge Shot also causes her arm cannon to splinter into Phazon tendrils. I’m away from my desktop so I can’t edit these details in right now. Can someone do that? [[User:DatAlphaLion|DatAlphaLion]] ([[User talk:DatAlphaLion|talk]]) 11:58, 25 October 2018 (EDT)

| |
| == Dark Samus is "floatier"? ==
| |
|
| |
| This is a discussion that hasn't had a conclusive answer for the two months following Dark Samus's unveiling, as close observation showed her to have the same statistical attributes as Samus, leading to the belief that the "floatier" statement was referring to the animations. Has there been proof that Dark Samus is statistically floatier in recent footage? Or is the current information on the page just speculatory again?
| |
|
| |
| == Faster Acceleration? ==
| |
|
| |
| http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aCZrQiLmEU&t=6m43s
| |
| Samus and Dark Samus somehow got different results on the speed test in this video. We know they have the same speed, but he claims there's a difference in acceleration that puts Dark Samus ahead. Is this a reliable testing method? Can anyone verify or refute his claims?
| |
| [[User:NuFace|NuFace]] ([[User talk:NuFace|talk]]) 18:22, 26 December 2018 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| So I see that a note on Dark Samus' ground acceleration was added, but did that ever actually receive any further testing? I had Samus and Damus run side by side a few times in Training Mode and they seemed to keep pace with one another. The results in the video above might've been caused by outside factors. I've heard that certain sections of Big Blue are faster or slower than others, but I can't confirm that.
| |
|
| |
| EDIT:Forgot to mention, maybe some extra detail is warranted on the projectile release height differences considering it lets Dark Samus do this. https://twitter.com/myr_quiK/status/1076799567016935425
| |
| I guess Samus' might be slightly better for catching jumps or something?

| == Found a video with comparisons. ==
| |
|
| |
| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDyA2U4lgDA
| |
| According to this, our listed information on rolls might be slightly off and there are hurtbox differences that we missed. I don't know what to make of the information on dash dance and I think the superior down tilt stun falls into the already listed fire vs. electric effect difference, though maybe more detail should be added there.
| |
|
| |
| == Organization of the "Difference from Samus" from Samus section==
| |
|
| |
| An edit war won't get us anywhere so I'm bringing this here so we can have a vote and reach a final consensus. I don't think the nature of how Dark Samus' changes are coded is relevant to how they're listed on her page. They should be organized separately like any other set of changes. Furthermore, I don't believe we generally have a "Miscellaneous" section on character pages, so the choice seems stylistically incongruous. Removing mention of this information from the initial summary of the section to refer to her only as "virtually identical in function" also doesn't seem very logical. Regardless of how small the changes between them are, any functional change is enough to render her no longer "identical" by definition.
| |
|
| |
| The preceding statements also apply to edits I've seen made on the pages for other Echo Fighters, namely Richter and Daisy, but the matter is prominent on this page.

| I'm honestly not well versed enough in the technical side of Smash to be able to say exactly what causes this or how to reproduce it, but it's definitely worth a look at. Is turn around momentum a thing? There doesn't seem to be any mention of anything like it on the [[Turn]] or [[Dash]] pages
| |
|
| |
| Wow, they've done some pretty rigorous analysis over there in Japan. Check out the Simon and Richter section. Apparently they've got minor vertical/horizontal hurtbox differences akin to Peach and Daisy.

| == Unlisted 3.0.0 changes to Z-air and Charge Shot shield stun ==
| |
|
| |
| So the changelog in 3.0.0 listed the small nerf to shield damage, but there were two unlisted changes discovered afterwards.
| |
|
| |
| First is the change to Z-air, which is no longer as "noodley" as it was before and is now more linear and solid:

| 3.0.0 Z-air: https://twitter.com/KayJay_EU/status/1118750186732490753
| |
|
| |
| Also, either as a coincidence or consequence of the shield damage nerf, Charge Shot now actually does more shield stun, despite doing less damage.

| |
| == All differences between Samus and Dark Samus. ==
| |
|
| |
| As an [[Echo Fighter]] of Samus, Dark Samus' moveset and abilites, such as jump height, damage output and running speed, are virtually identical to Samus. However, she has many basic animations that are different from Samus, a more standard roll which does not involve turning into a Morph Ball, electric effects instead of fire effects for most of Samus's fire-based moves, and different models for both the Morph Ball and Missile. However, Dark Samus's small advantages over Samus (such as a slightly faster roll) are considered to be less situational than Samus's small advantages over Dark Samus (such as the ability to detonate enemy bombs with her flame properties, or a smaller hurtbox after rolling). These are among several other gameplay differences that can arise, though they are so marginal that it is ultimately up to preference over which character to choose from.

| *{{change|Dark Samus's Arm Cannon-based attacks like down tilt, up smash and forward aerial use dark and neon blue clouds instead of orange explosions.}}
| |
| *{{change|As part of her design, Dark Samus lacks certain props such as jet boosters.}}
| |
| ===Attributes===
| |
| *{{change|Dark Samus initial dash lasts for a longer period of time (10-12 -> 10-15)}}
| |
| *{{change|Samus' moves that possess [[flame]] effects (except for Missile and Bomb) have been changed into [[electric]] effects for Dark Samus, with hitlag modifiers to compensate.}}
| |
| *{{buff|Dark Samus' shield size is slightly larger than Samus's (11 → 11.7) to compensate for her shielding animation being different, as she assumes a more upright stance. However this also results in her shield granting better coverage against some attacks.}}
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus doesn't transform into the Morph Ball when rolling or spin while jumping.}}
| |
| *{{buff|Both of Dark Samus' [[roll]]s have less ending lag than Samus' ([[FAF]] 35 → 32 (forward), 40 → 37 (back)).}}
| |
| **{{nerf|However, Dark Samus is more vulnerable during ending lag due to her larger hurtboxes when rolling.}}
| |
| **{{nerf|Dark Samus cannot roll past small gaps in custom stages without using Bomb due to the larger hurtboxes}}
| |
| *{{change|Many of Dark Samus' ledge grab hurtboxes are different from Samus.}}
| |
| ===Ground attacks===
| |
| *{{change|Dark Samus's dash attack has an altered animation where Dark Samus hovers in midair. Additionally, Dark Samus does not use her jet boosters during the animation.}}
| |
| *{{change|All of Dark Samus's smash attacks have altered animations.}}
| |
| **{{change|This slightly influences the horizontal reach of all versions of forward smash, with the unangled version having marginally less horizontal reach, while the up and down angled versions have marginally increased horizontal reach.}}
| |
| **{{buff|This allows up smash to hit shorter opponents more reliably than Samus's version.}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Special moves===
| |
| *{{change|Missiles and {{b|Bomb|Samus}} have unique models, which have a more organic appearance.}}
| |
|
| |
| *[[Screw Attack]]:
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus has a different animation when she lands with the move.}}
| |
| *[[Charge Shot]]:
| |
| **{{change|Charge Shot is mostly black and dark blue, with tendrils extending from the edges.}}
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus fires Charge Shot with one hand, instead of two hands. This change is reflected in {{SSBU|Kirby}}'s animations aswell.}}
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus fires her [[Charge Shot]] at a slightly lower elevation, due to an altered animation}}
| |
| ***{{buff|This allows [[Charge Shot]] to hit low profiling opponents more easily, such as a crouching {{SSBU|Pichu}} or {{SSBU|Pikachu}} hanging from the ledge.}}
| |
| ***{{nerf|However, this makes it slightly easier for opponents to jump over her projectiles.}}
| |
| *[[Missile]]
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus fires Missile in a more upright stance.}}
| |
| **{{change|Dark Samus fires Super Missile in a more alien-like, deformed manner than Samus.}}
| |
| *[[Phazon Laser]]:
| |
| **{{change|It is mostly black and dark blue, as opposed to white and light blue.}}
| |
| **{{buff|The Final Smash meter deals slightly more knockback (0.988x -> 0.989x normal Smash Ball variant)}}
| |
| **{{nerf|Phazon Laser lacks the thruster hitboxes of Samus's equivalent [[Zero Laser (Samus)|Final Smash]].}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Mischallenous===
| |
| *{{buff|Dark Samus has a slightly larger hitbox when she is being shot off a barrel (3.85u -> 4.095u)}}

| :When I look at fighter pages, they have something to say about their competitive metagame history. However, fighter pages like this don’t have that kind of paragraph. If anybody has done some research about Dark Samus’ competitive history, please write a paragraph about it in her competitive play section.

| == Minor corrections ==
| |
|
| |
| Apparently this page is protected for some reason, but there are some minor things that need editing.
| |
| - Mentioning that Dark Samus's portal is a possible homage to the portals from Metroid Prime 2. She is seen entering one in her very first appearance in the game.
| |
| - Her Victory pose when she fist bumps is not a reference to Prime 1's 100% screen, but the intro to her boss battle in Prime 3.
