Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week this forum hosts a tussle between two characters 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, just vote if you are a total fanboy of the character. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you can remain anonymous! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.

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.
  2. You can only vote 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 do so; 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. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comment section. It is recommended that you do not post argumentative, accusative, or any sort of comment with the intention of starting an argument with someone on the opposing side. The Smash Arena is a popularity contest, there's no need to argue with the other side on why your choice is superior, or why they are wrong with their reasoning for picking their choice.
  8. You may only vote 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).
  10. Do not put your vote in the Half-Votes section. It is not where anonymous users vote, nor is it acceptable to want your vote to be worth half. It is basically saying "I want to be punished", and you will be treated accordingly.
  11. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.

If your vote is not added correctly - that is, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have one hour to fix it. After this time, it may be moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero at an operator's discretion. In addition, if your votes-to-rulebreaks ratio climbs too high, your votes may count for zero until the ratio drops to an acceptable level.

0 to 0
New Pork City1.jpg
A pair of large city-based stages from the Psykid Universe. Which metropolis gains the higher approval rating?

Votes for Fourside

  1. Looks cooler. Also, NO hazards whatsoever. --24.11.24.139 19:22, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  2. This stage is at least playable, unlike the mess that is New Pork :| Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 19:38, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  3. This is more to play on. OMG A UFO THAT'S EXTREMELY SLIPPERY!!!-Ivy73002MS.png 19:55, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  4. This was a tough pick for me, I didn't even know which one to pick when I suggested this, but I have to give my vote to Fourside. The reason this was a tough pick is because I've beaten both EarthBound and Mother 3 and I liked venturing through both cities. If this was WikiBound I would go with New Pork City since there's sort of more to do in the city, but since this is a fight between the Smash stages, I went with Fourside. I do agree that the music for New Pork City is good though. New Pork City is just too ridiculously big for me. I mean, compare the size of New Pork City in Mother 3 to the size of it in Brawl. It's a camper's paradise. Unknown the Hedgehog 20:21, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  5. A UFO!! That's better than a man-biting OHKOing pink thing with a bird on its head. Plus, it takes me 100000000 years to kill a level 1 in New Fork City. Mastergameandwatch (talk) 20:25, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  6. Fourside, because you don't have to squint to see where you are and what you're doing. Hawk 21 (talk) 21:22, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  7. New Pork City is wayyy too big. Every time I play on it, everything takes twice as long as it needs to. Fuddlebob (talk) 23:55, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
  8. I just hate New Pork City. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 02:13, 30 April 2011 (EDT)
  9. Fourside was just a funner stage to play on. New Pork City gets boring because it's just way too big. 110.174.90.69 02:44, 30 April 2011 (EDT)

  7. I never played Melee and this is a bigger stage.--Wolf rulez! WolfHeadSSBB.png Playtime's over! 03:49, 30 April 2011 (EDT)

Round 83: King Dedede vs. Snake

Winner!!
Snake

18 to 18.5
Two of Brawl's heaviest hitters, both with a wide array of tricks and stage-controlling tools. Who gets the nod in this battle?

Votes for King Dedede

  1. DDD has a Wall of Pain, and he's much harder to kill than Solid Salamander(whoops, did I get it wrong?).Mastergameandwatch (talk) 19:54, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
  2. King Dedede is not only a strong character, he's the hardest character to vertically KO, and best of all he has a very convenient pronounciation. King Dedede can be shortened to King D, King DDD, K DDD, DDD, or even KD. Solid Salamander? Nah. Mastersword (talk) 20:54, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
  3. This mate has one of the easiest chain-grabs ever and his f-smash rocks! Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 23:12, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
  4. "How can we help you, King Dedede?"
    "We need a monster to clobber that Kirby!"
    "That's what we do best here at NME!"
    "Make sure it comes with a money-back guarantee." Mr. Anon (talk) 01:58, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  5. King dedede is funny and awesome, snake is too seriousLucasthefourth PK Chu!Lucas kirby.jpg 02:38, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  6. Only King DDD's F-smash is slow. All three of Snake's are slow. Also, LET'S HEAR IT FOR NINTENDO! User:IheartKirby will pwn you all.
  7. Who's the king? Not Snake! Critical Hit, and... KO! 13:04, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  8. I still resent the inclusion of third-party characters. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 16:10, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  9. Because penguins are that much more awesome than snakes. Fuddlebob (talk) 04:43, 24 April 2011 (EDT)
  10. Less broken. HavocReaper 11:13, 24 April 2011 (EDT)
  11. I like both these characters, but I like Dedede more because of his grab game and has good aireal combat while Snake kind of lacks that. I was also able to improve some matchups and a small portion of his metagame (http://allisbrawl.com/forum/topic.aspx?id=176686 = Proof). Doc King (talk) 11:33, 24 April 2011 (EDT)
  12. King Dedede is one of my mains. Latios, use Luster Purge! (talk) 07:56, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  13. i like all kirby characters--kyle.b talk KirbyHeadSSBB.png 10:51, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  14. Two words: down throw. More words: 3D's chaingrab pwns all it affects! --Spenstar (talk) 18:30, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  15. Tubby gets my vote because he's hilarious and charming. Also, chain grab. Hawk 21 (talk) 18:42, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  16. Snake sucks and can hurt himself with his own grenades! And King DEDEDE is fat and cool, not to mention penguiny clothes. LOL.Tjahyadi (talk) 04:44, 26 April 2011 (EDT)
  17. King Ededed is funnier than that ugly man who appeared in M-rated games who is in Brawl just because a developer begged Sakurai to do this. Not only that, Snake went after Mario in the trailer. I like it how the fat penguin has a good side too. GreenMarioBrawlHead.png Green Mario 19:47, 28 April 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Snake

  1. This is Snake, user of the beastly tilts. MegaTron1XD:p 19:13, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
  2. Too powerful attacks. Brawl may have been rated E10+ (at the least) if it weren't for his all-powerful war-like attacks. --24.11.24.139 20:34, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
  3. SNAKE SNAKE SNAAAAAKE! --204.191.142.56 21:21, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

  6. I am better with Snake. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 03:59, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  7. Snake has very strong attacks. I don't like Dedede.--Wolf rulez! WolfHeadSSBB.png Playtime's over! 05:22, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  8. Doc King made me wish D3 was murdered.-Ivy73002MS.png 12:38, 23 April 2011 (EDT)
  9. I HATE King Dededede. He is worse than death and world hunger. Snake is pretty cool though.--91.104.232.111 14:30, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

  13. A gun can penitrate all that blubber Jt45fan (talk) 09:42, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  14. I find Snake to be an awesome character and while i like Dedede, i find him harder to play as. 110.174.90.69 22:27, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
  15. Snake is just awesome with his tilts and smashes. Manondorf (talk) 15:09, 26 April 2011 (EDT)
  16. Snake has guns and GRENADES!!!!!!!!!68.197.115.28 13:44, 27 April 2011 (EDT)
  17. A year ago, I would have voted for Dedede. But in that time, my Snake has surpassed my Dedede to be my top main, as well as my favorite Brawl character. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 19:52, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
  18. Snake is better Cw11cw (talk) 09:45, 29 April 2011 (EDT)

  1. Snake is one of the best characters ever invented and one of the best characters in brawl ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.67.67.75 (talkcontribs) 13;15, 24 April 2011 (EDT)

King Dedede's image is shorter than Snake's. --24.11.24.139 09:01, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

Wiki coding makes it trivial to make images the same width (which they are), but difficult to make them the same height if they don't have identical proportions. Unless the difference is extreme I don't go through the effort to fix it. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Bold 09:27, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

@King Dedede vote #5: But Snake is funny! His Smash Taunt, when Snake dies in his Smash Taunt, his pumping hand animation in a split-second if the Nikita is hit, his comment when eat a food "This is good!" Kirbythe Warpstr.jpg Amazing 10:13, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

@KDDD vote 2: Solid Snake could be shortened to Snake or even SS. --24.11.24.139 12:19, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

That may be true, but King Dedede can be shortened in many ways. And anyway, it's Salamander. Nah, just kidding. Mastersword (talk) 18:15, 23 April 2011 (EDT)

Another extremely close match. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 02:22, 29 April 2011 (EDT)
