How can I test the weight of each character?
I know one way is how long it takes a character to throw another character (i.e. it takes longer for Mario to back-throw Jigglypuff than Bowser), but how do I test it knockback-wise? Any attacks I can use, and what stage can I use them on? Blue Ninjakoopa(Talk) 14:12, 17 May 2012 (EDT)
- In Melee, by the way. Blue Ninjakoopa(Talk) 14:12, 17 May 2012 (EDT)
- While knockback can give you a strong idea of how much a character weighs, it's not completely accurate. Gravity plays a small role in how much knockback a character sustains, and is the reason why Fox, despite being heavier, sustains more knockback than some characters lighter than him. In Melee, a simple way to measure a character's weight ingame would be to go to Mushroom Kingdom, and have a character on each scale platform. The scale that falls faster has the heavier character, and neither scale falling indicates equal weight. Omega Tyrant
