SmashArena.png

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week (or two weeks, if the wiki's status is high Green or above) this forum hosts a tussle between two characters, items, stages or anything else from the Super Smash Bros. series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll but functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that round. No, you don't have to vote for the character with strength & power, or the stage considered more "fair", or the combatant with the most fans - just vote if you are a total fanboy of the participant. So what are you waiting for? Get voting!

The Rules

  1. When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature. Long explanations for your vote are discouraged, as they are unnecessary (a vote is worth the same regardless of its reasoning), and they inflate the size of an already large page.
  2. You can vote only once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
  3. Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
  4. Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
  5. There is a line in each section consisting of "DO NOT ADD COMMENTS OR EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE". You are to follow this rule; do not just type your vote at the bottom of the editing window. Not following this rule results in your vote being displayed in the wrong place.
  6. Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
  7. You may change or remove your vote at any time. To do this you must remove your old vote in its entirety; this is an exception to the "never remove comments" rule.
  8. You may vote only in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
  9. Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it). Extra spacing results in the list numbers becoming disjointed.
  10. While previewing an edit of a single section, you will see loose formatting marks (such as a trailing |}). Do not alter or delete them; they are important to the page's construction and take effect only when the entire round is viewed.
  11. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.
  12. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comments section. The following kinds of comments are not allowed:
    • Comments relating to how close or one-sided a matchup is.
    • Comments about other users' opinions. You can point out that a user may have gotten a fact wrong, but you can't say things such as "That's not a good reason" or "But the other guy is better because X". Users can vote for any reason they want; trying to argue with someone's opinion generally has no positive outcome, in addition to simply inflating the comments section of an already large page.
      • Similarly, avoid writing votes that may invite an argument. Stating your opinion is fine, but don't make it easy for others to see it as goading.

If your vote is not added correctly - specifically, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have a short amount of time to fix it (typically between fifteen minutes to an hour). After this time, it may be corrected and moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Other users should not fix such broken votes without also making them half-votes. Your vote will also be considered a half-vote if your edit causes someone else's valid vote to break one of these rules. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero (and subsequently deleted) at an operator's discretion.

Multiple votes in a round are not allowed; attempts to circumvent this with sockpuppets will result in all your votes being deleted, and is a blockable offense. Probated users who attempt to circumvent their probation with sockpuppets are also committing a blockable offense and will have their vote discounted. Remember that admins have access to CheckUser to check the IPs of any user, and will use it when sockpuppetry is suspected.

Intentional half-votes undermine the intent of the half-vote system as a way to punish voters for voting incorrectly. It is legal to want a vote to be worth half, but it is very heavily discouraged, and you must state in your vote you want it to be worth half. If you put your vote in the half-votes section without stating reasons why you want it there, it is worth zero and may be deleted by any user. You may replace it later should you do it correctly.

Above all, remember that voting in the Smash Arena is a privilege, not a right. In the vein of what SmashWiki is not, you are expected to at least attempt reasonable contributions to the wiki if you wish to retain your privilege to participate.

 Winner!!

23.5 to 28
Thunder Melee.jpg
These two down special moves have been derided as "cheap" by the n00bz ever since their introduction. Which spammed strike hits harder?

Votes for Stone

  1. Stone is invincibility.Besides, kirby can turn into different things! --DarkVexon (talk) 14:52, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  2. Simply because of all the forms it can take. JamesJH-Heartless.pngHeart 12:11, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  3. As a Kirby mainer, I know how to use Stone effectively. It's very effective when used sparringly, as it will then often catch a chasing opponent off guard and finish them off before they can react. It's also pretty good for edgeguarding in a similar manner. JUST DON'T BE A STONER, KEI? ♡FirstaLasto♥ 12:18, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  4. Am I just paranoid, or am I stoned? ChuckNorris24.png 12:23, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  5. Upward Smash, Perfect Foil - as long as you don't meet the blast line first. ScoreCounter 13:21, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  6. Thunder is the more effective attack, but I like that Kirby has different forms upon using this move. blue ninjakoopa 13:58, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  7. A Kirby main and stone has more variety. ZeldaStarfoxfan2164 (talk) is bad for me 16:27, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  8. I prefer this move because I use stone quite often in the Kirby games. Also, it's a very useful, and I (get) kill(ed by)people all the time with this! − 72.106.152.21 17:43, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  9. Thunder, the move that everyone used to rape my childhood. Yeah I hate thunder for that reason. Also Kirby is my favorite fictional character. --Myth Myth Kirby.png 20:13, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  10. Earthquake glitch Harro (talk) 21:00, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  11. Berrenta (talk) 22:40, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  12. 121.223.150.80 23:09, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  13. God, I just love using this move. Also, it transforms into a bunch a stuff!TheAtomicFire BluePichu.png 11:07, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  14. 180.149.192.133 18:20, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  15. Because I like it better. 75.141.44.196 14:03, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
  16. I HATE THUNDER! --174.60.17.41 09:49, 22 May 2014 (EDT)
  17. Ownage? More like Stownage! --Newraptor (talk) 11:36, 23 May 2014 (EDT)
  18. this always works50.32.207.142 10:56, 26 May 2014 (EDT)
  19. I mostly just like the glitch, but hey Torden
  20. Stone is cool and is useful for events. Igor The Mii (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2014 (EDT)
  21. I always use Stone in the Arena and True Arena because I'm bad at dodging. I think that has something to do with this. --97.82.197.63 20:30, 30 May 2014 (EDT)
  22. I use it more.96.237.184.211 18:16, 1 June 2014 (EDT)
  23. Really, what hasn't been said about this already? MeatBall104; With dirty rice on the side! 22:58, 1 June 2014 (EDT)

Half-Votes

  1. I'm gonna have to go to this one, cause some guy called Spammy beat the crap out of me with it. I got so mad. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.211.34.20 (talk • contribs) 09:37, May 18, 2014 (EDT)

Votes for Thunder

  1. THUNDERSPIKING!!!!!! Also, don't think Thunder is useless in Pokemon just because its inaccurate and Thunderbolt is the completely better option, its a underrated move and you need the extra power in Ubers and this thing is 100% accurate when rain comes in. Dots (talk) Link OoT Dots.PNG The Windows 12:07, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  2. ↑ Scr7Scr7 sig.png(talk · contribs) 12:11, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  3. Stone is meh in both Kirby and Smash, while Thunder is decent in both Pokemon and Smash. 71.116.252.65 14:13, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  4. Just cause I use pikachuQwerty (talk) 15:03, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  5. Seems more useful to me. 75.156.151.217 18:20, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  6. SHAZAM! SeanWheeler (talk) 18:56, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  7. It's really hard to actually hit a competent player with Stone, not to mention the horrible ending lag and high vulnerability from grabs. Awesome Cardinal 2000 19:12, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  8. Both moves are situational. This one can at least get you cool KOs off the ceiling once in a while and combos nicely from an up smash or up tilt. There are no "Stone setups" for Kirby. --Timson622222 (talk) 19:57, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  9. This move is more satisfying to KO with for me. --Ness FTW! (talk) 20:04, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  10. I love pokemon and pikachu!THIS is Melodia.PIKAAAAACHU!!!!MetaMewtwoSoul600px-Yveltal.png' 20:12, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  11. Because of what Dots said. He convinced me. DoctorPain99 21:07, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  12. Thunderspiking is the bane of my existence in Brawl...-. ConnyAirconny Snake Sig.png 21:46, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  13. Helps make Kyogre the beast he is. Laikue (talk) 23:45, 17 May 2014 (EDT)
  14. Thunder is an extremely useful move in all levels of play (just use when it should be used, i.e. hitting opponents high above). Stone on the other hand, is near useless against competent players without the aid of lag; it's just too slow and telegraphed, leaves you way too vulnerable on whiff, and has no sort of setups or mixups whatsoever. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 11:40, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  15. Per Dots. Smash Master 13:39, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  16. Though I loved spamming Stone when I was forced to play Smash 64 for a year, this one is much more powerful and spammy. VICIOUS VIRIDIAN!!!!!! (talk) 15:08, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  17. you can zap things (User:Xyle:) 20:43 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  18. I'm pretty good with Pikachu, and Thunder always annoys and defeats my opponents quite elegantly (for lack of a better adverb). Stone is a go-to attack while Thunder is a come-to attack, making it less expected and more successful. Signed by Mr. Mewtwo. 75.4.232.41 23:24, 18 May 2014 (EDT)
  19. PIKA! *FOOM* PIKA! *FOOM* PIKA! *FOOM* And that's how you die. Nymbare and his talk 16:13, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
  20. Pikachu is the best. Red (talk) Red 20:22, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
  21. I prefer a move that summons lightning from thin air, looks cool, and has actual practical usage over a move that involves becoming a stupid-looking, useless, immobile rock. --EndGenuity (talk) 22:09, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
  22. You could possibly attack much more enemies this way rather than just smashing down on one lone Mario. GoldCoreKid (talk) 6:22, 20 May 2014 (EDT)
  23. A thunderbolt versus a useless rock. Oh, gee, I'm undecided.Funfroggies (talk) 20:59, 20 May 2014 (EDT)
  24. Rock is limited, I can blast off someone when Rock wears off. Also it's ideal for combos. Superstarxalien169's smashbox. (talk) 13:22, 21 May 2014 (EDT)
  25. Kirby can be grabbed when he is in his stone form. 174.24.199.165 20:32, 25 May 2014 (EDT)
  26. Thunder is actually a competent finishing move if the foe is helpless! Also, electricity is always cooler than a stone.SoloMael (talk) 15:39, 30 May 2014 (EDT)
  27. Pikachu is my main and thunder is an awesome move.Xanthus (talk) 05:07, 1 June 2014 (EDT)
