Frigate Orpheon: Difference between revisions

'''Frigate Orpheon''' ({{ja|フリゲートオルフェオン|Furigēto Orufeon}}, ''Frigate Orpheon'') is a [[Starter stage|starter]] [[stage]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and it has been confirmed to return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It is one of three stages that has its roots in the {{uv|Metroid}} universe in ''[[Brawl]]'', but the first based on a location in its ''[[Metroid Prime]]'' sub-series.

Frigate Orpheon's portrayal in ''Brawl'' borrows several aspects of the original locale and implements it into the stage. The general design is very reminiscent of the frigate as it appeared in ''Metroid Prime''. As well as that, it sometimes experiences power outages, knocking out the lights and therefore making it more difficult to see the position of the platforms. The [[Parasite Queen]] is featured inside the reactor core whilst utilizing the same rotating forcefield it used against Samus in the boss fight with it. However, the Queen is merely there for aesthetic reasons; it has no effect on the proceedings of the brawl.

This stage is usually a counterpick and is sometimes banned in tournaments. This is largely due to the flipping of the stage which can cause unintentional self destructs.
