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 a 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.

Round 232: Onett vs. Fourside

OnettMelee.jpg
 Winner!!
undecided

~ to ~
Fourside Melee.png
These two masses of buildings are of significantly different population density - and altitude of fighting. One's based on horizontal sections and runaway drivers, the other on vertical shafts and runaway UFOs. Which capitalizes?

Votes for Onett

  1. I prefer Onett, mainly because I've never played Fourside. I actually like Magicant best though. XD 72.105.74.179 10:20, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  2. Onett is better because Onett. Rtzxy Reflect.jpg Reflect! 10:26, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  3. After almost a 6 month hiatus, we finally get to vote again in a new round on Smash Arena. I can't wait for the three way smash games round because I would love to hear everyone's opinions on the three games (although Melee might win over Brawl this time though. :P). Anyways, I vote for Onett because Pollyanna is my favorite music in the EarthBound franchise. The music and the stage itself reminds me of my life back in California. Dots (talk) Link OoT Dots.PNG The Calvin and Hobbes 10:39, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  4. You can't accidentally fall down between buildings here. 'Nuff said. Takava (talk) 16:20, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  5. What Takava said. Plus, I like the music in it better, and the fact that it appears in 3 Smash games is more than enough to prove that it is better. :P TepigSprite.pngTepig (talk) 16:32, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  6. I've (sadly) never played Melee, so I'll have to give it to Onett. Als- OH NO THE TAXI RosalinaU (talk) 22:01, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  7. You can play Smiles and Tears here in SSB4, not to mention the Onett Winters Theme. 'Nuff said. SSBBNess (talk) SSBBNess sig image.png 08:47, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  8. it has been here since melee. {Psychninja14 (talk) 18:52, 14 December 2014 (EST)}
  9. It's appeared in every game. Plus it's harder to die on. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 19:01, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  10. Never played melee 106.68.17.161 04:11, 15 December 2014 (EST)
  11. @Nutta Butta: Super Smash Bros. says hi. Anyway, I like Onett due to the sign that talks about the black van being driven by "this guy" racing around town. PikaSamus (talk) PikaSamus 11:07, 15 December 2014 (EST)
  12. The music is way better, and I just like the overall atmosphere more. ChuckNorris24.png  17:57, 19 December 2014 (EST)

Half-votes

  1. I think Onett is more classical to EarthBound Series —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.144.159.18 (talk • contribs) 09:48, 13 December 2014
  2. Both maps are pretty tedious, but occasionally fun when you're not taking the game seriously. I guess the Pollyanna arrangement with the secondary soundtrack is the tie breaker for me.--Dinodomain (talk) 02:39, 16 December 2014 (EST)
  3. I prefer Onett because I am a wario main and he performs well on this stage:) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.80.93.216 (talk • contribs) 21:31, 19 December 2014 (EST)
  4. I love the music and the background... and pretty much everything else. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.188.69.248 (talk • contribs) 13:31, 20 December 2014 (EST)
  5. I love this stage, MAH BOI.... the music, the graphics, the colors, everything! —Preceding unsigned comment added by PK Arby (talk • contribs) 16:31, 21 December 2014 (EST)

Votes for Fourside

  1. I feel that the cars of Onett force players to avoid/utilize its ground area excessively, changing normal gameplay mechanics. I still like both stages, though; I merely prefer Fourside. Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 00:40, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  2. It hasn't refused to go away. RickTommy 02:13, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  3. It has a better aesthetic design, as well as being overall less campy(though not by much). I wish it would make a return.71.108.116.197 03:10, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  4. This stage doesn't have walk-offs. Awesomelink234 PK FLASHBOMB! 08:06, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  5. Though I never played on Fourside, I've seen it in action. It looks better aesthetically. Here's to hoping it comes back! Berrenta (talk) 10:32, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  6. Foursode is less annoying (dang cars) more interesting visually and just more fun overallThe Omega Smasher (talk) 19:01, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  7. I prefer stages that aren't walk-off. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 21:33, 13 December 2014 (EST)
  8. I personally find Onett to be a rather annoying stage due to the cars, and the overall cramped space. I don't have much to say about Fourside, but I do find it better. MeatBall104; Going :|O around the clock! 12:28, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  9. I've never really liked any of the EarthBound stages in the Smash series (with the exception of this one). In all honesty, however, I'd choose Fourside over the others in an instant. AidanzapunkSig.jpgBlueStreak Speeds By 12:57, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  10. I was going to say exactly what FaLo said o3o DoctorPain99 19:19, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  11. Onett is a frustrating, campy, cramped stage that was never fun for me to play on, even back in my younger days. Fourside has a pretty interesting geometry and isn't a walk-off. I don't get why Onett keeps getting brought back. --Timson622222 (talk) 19:21, 14 December 2014 (EST)
  12. Fourside is a lot more fun to play on, and the scenery is slightly more pleasing. Onett can be annoying at times, especially when you're trying to maintain your ground in between the houses. There are also those overhangs actually being able to block jumps in Brawl, which makes escaping infinite jabs and chain throws just about impossible. Blue Ninjakoopa 05:45, 15 December 2014 (EST)
  13. Onett is way too cramped. Not very suitable for battle. This is probably the best Earthbound stage in my opinion, excluding Magicant. SmashBros (talk) 10:55, 15 December 2014 (EST)
  14. Bigger, no hazards, better for competitive play (which Melee was focused on a little), and just better overall. Derpguy 64 (talk) 12:16, 15 December 2014 (EST)Derpguy 64
  15. I can pronounce its name. --Meester Tweester (talk) 04:53, 17 December 2014 (EST)
  16. This stage should've been in Brawl and SSB4. Smash Master 08:04, 17 December 2014 (EST)
  17. I never really liked Onett for the sheer fact of it being brought back two too many times than I cared for, and the stage was pretty lackluster, with the cars being the only thing that saves it from being forgotten for me. Fourside, however was a stage that, despite its size, was fun to play on no matter when. Except for that event, Space travelers. AtomicGameAndWatch (talk) 17:36, 17 December 2014 (EST)
  18. I like Fourside, and I would have liked to see it as a familiar stage in Brawl. Mainly because it has so many camping spots. >:D The Arnge GreenMega.jpg I'm no rubble monkey! 13:41, 18 December 2014 (EST)
  19. I've only ever seen tahsin fan games (Super Smash Flash 2), but I really like the design and lack of cars. Littlesquirtle! I choose you!LittleSquirtleSig.png 09:30, 19 December 2014 (EST)

Half-votes

  1. Fourside is a cool stage, Onett is a really fun stage. Both are very frustrating for different reasons. Onett has walk-off KOs and powerful stage hazards, as well as a layout that can lead to Up-Smash/tilt camping. Fourside has narrow holes (making it especially frustrating for its sole character; Ness), a spaceship platform that's obviously been waxed, and a layout and length that promotes all types of camping. For their good traits, there are many. Onett for example, has a good lay-out for 6-8 player smashes (one of the best in the game imo), good music, and just a fun atmosphere. But, I'm voting for Fourside because it has BETTER music, a real cool atmosphere (think Saphron City, but larger, more realistic and at night with aliens), would've been a great 8-player smash stage, and it has aliens, dammit! How cool is that? However, considering all things, I can only bring myself to give Fourside a half vote, as Onett gets a very close second in my book.

Round 231: Samus vs. Sonic

Samus SSBB.jpg
 Winner!!
Sonic
Sonic SSBB.jpg

40 to 43.5
Sonic SSBB.jpg
They curl up into balls and roll around at high speed. They have nemeses that refuse to go away. They're of opposite colours and personalities. Which one's the winner?

Votes for Samus

  1. Probably just a quick vote of some sort. Nothing much to say. Dots (talk) Link OoT Dots.PNG The Keyboard 14:26, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  2. Samus is underrated, Sonic pisses me off. Any voter who mentions "Yur too slow" in their voting will die a horrible painful death.Qwerty da beast Nessytrewq.jpg 15:24, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  3. --Myth Myth Kirby.png 15:42, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  4. Berrenta (talk) 21:14, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  5. Sonic has much better mobility and slightly better KO moves, but Samus isn't too far behind in the latter field, and her projectile game mitigates her problems in the former. She overall has better endurance (especially horizontally) and is a lot more fun to use. I also think Samus's aerials (except for b-air) are better. Blue Ninjakoopa 21:24, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  6. Neither were great to me in Brawl, but at least Samus was pretty fun in Melee.71.108.118.204 23:17, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  7. Sonic is complete crap in Brawl, plus, Samus has only made one "meh" game, while Sonic has made at least three TERRIBLE games. Laikue (talk) 23:49, 26 July 2014 (EDT)
  8. 60.231.176.168 00:39, 27 July 2014 (EDT)
  9. I hate sonic in brawl. His moves were boring,weak and cheap. But samus has much more to show for. And if we're talking actual character comparison, I like sonic, but he can be annoying *cough*YOU'RE TOO SLOW*cough* and at least samus didn't have a game made in 2006 that almost ruined the franchise! TheAtomicFire BluePichu.png 08:44, 27 July 2014 (EDT)
  10. I never liked Sonic nor Samus (besides Zamus) in Smash, but outside of Smash, Samus wins, no contest. Her series consists of games that are actually, you know, good. Even Other M, the game that "almost ruined the series", has its fans. DoctorPain99 09:19, 27 July 2014 (EDT)
  11. Samus is my most favourite Nintendo character. Her moves are nice, Many projectiles, her recovery is Ok and she has the longest grab range.Vegeta8001 (talk) 11:49, 27 July 2014 (EDT)
  12. 180.149.192.132 03:08, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
  13. Because Samus is awesome and Sonic is slightly less so. ScizorSteelix 17:15, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
  14. I've actually been playing a lot of Samus in Project M lately. Aside from that, I've never been a true fan of Sonic, both in his games and in his movepool, and some parts of his fanbase are just sickening to look at. --Timson622222 (talk) 18:00, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
  15. Just... Better.--Pichu+Pichu (talk) 02:49, 30 July 2014 (EDT)
  16. Both of them are pretty bad in Brawl, but Samus is a far better in my eyes. Except for Other M. Also, I like the Metroid series infinitely more than Sanic the Hegh. ...Except for Other M. Nymbare and his talk 21:27, 30 July 2014 (EDT)
  17. C'mon, Nintendo. Bring back the bikini-endings! MeatBall104; Prepare your anus! 10:25, 3 August 2014 (EDT)
  18. I would choose a badass bounty hunter over a blue hedgehog any day. N6TJA (talk) 11:03, 3 August 2014 (EDT)
  19. See vote no. 2. Plus, Sonic's rather predictable and he really can't KO very well. 23.119.230.43 18:55, 3 August 2014 (EDT)
  20. I favor Samus in character. I don't play either of these in Smashes, but I play Metroid more often then Sonic, sooo... Samus. Stan the Man (talk) 13:45, 6 August 2014 (EDT)
  21. Dat maneuverability tho. --Torden (talk) 23:57, 6 August 2014 (EDT)
  22. Samus has much more combat experience, the armor to survive sonic's speed, as well as the speed boost item that eliminates sonic's biggest advantage. Samus, any day. --ZephyrOmega (talk) 20:19, 20 August 2014 (EDT)
  23. Metroid is better. PikaSamus (talk) PikaSamus 13:34, 8 September 2014 (EDT)
  24. Samus is a lot more powerful and Ifind her easier to control Zogvquit (talk) 08:12, 17 September 2014 (EDT)
  25. I enjoy Samus better. IMO, she's got the better games, is the better character, and is more fun to play than Sonic in Brawl. Beatle (talk) 01:59, 18 September 2014 (EDT)
  26. Obvious choice. JamesJH-Heartless.pngHeart 17:49, 18 September 2014 (EDT)

  32. She has more experience. 98.222.6.141 14:53, 19 October 2014 (EDT)
  33. More fun to play as Samus, attacks hurts more, doesn't suicide from too much speed (not that good with the recovery tho) Kirbythe Meta+Kirby.jpg Amazing Know my power! 10:56, 23 October 2014 (EDT)
  34. Aside from Metroid being a better overall series than Sonic, Samus is my all time favorite character. She's badass, sexy and my hero. And Plus in Smash 4 she's not a clunky piece of garbage like Sonic. Enderwoman (talk) 20:01, 26 October 2014 (EDT)
  35. As a Brawl and SSB4 player, Sonic is just way to boring in his design compared to Samus (I mean how many of his moves involve him rolling up into a ball to attack). Samus is just too bad-ass in this game compared to Sonic. Also, Prime is a thing.DungTrio43 (talk) 21:18, 26 October 2014 (EDT)
  36. She is easier to play, stronger and overall better. I won many times thanks to Charge Shot. Sonic doesn't have anything like this. 83.6.63.55 07:26, 10 November 2014 (EST)

  4. Half vote for Samus cause she's very strong other than Sonic, but Sonic is a decent character for me, just not strong enough. Giratina 720 19:12, 30 August 2014 (EDT)

Votes for Sonic

  29. I share a birthday with Sonic, so he's kinda special to me. Plus, I'm not too good at Metroid games anyway. Mistiryshak (talk) 18:23, 26 October 2014 (EDT)
  30. I find Sonic pretty good at battles, he's actually one of my mains. --EpiNa8 00:47, 3 November 2014 (EST)

  35. Super Sonic style!!!!!{Psychninja14 (talk) 11:25, 18 November 2014 (EST)}
  36. Sonic is, by far, the better character. His speed can allow him to avoid Samus's weaponry, and he can go Super. Aidan the Gamer 11:40, 18 November 2014 (EST)

  38. hes from my favorite game franchise, he's my main in brawl, and, lest we forget, your too slow. The Omega Smasher (talk) 22:36, 22 November 2014 (EST)
  39. Sonic is waaay better than Samus. He's faster, stronger, plus, hes like 8 spots ahead of Samus in the tier list. The Master Hand—It's time. MasterHandSig.jpg 09:20, 12 December 2014 (EST)
  40. Yay, 40th vote! Besides, Sonic is way cooler. infernape612 22:47, 12 December 2014 (EST)

  1. While Samus is/was (depending on the time you read this) the strongest character in the game, Sonic is the speediest, and after they buffed him in SSB4 and Mega Man taking Samus' place, Sonic is better by a landslide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meman1990 (talk • contribs) 07:21, July 27, 2014 (EDT)
  2. Sonic is faster than Samus and can transform into Super Sonic. Plus: You're to slow —Preceding unsigned comment added by Limulla (talk • contribs) 15:49, August 1, 2014‎ (CDT)
  3. i like sonic the hedgehog better than super metroid and i like dark-ish blue better than light-ish orange and sonic's faster and very ..."link type of cute" so sonic is definately my pick:D—Preceding unsigned comment added by Valehd (talk • contribs) 10:22, August 9, 2014 (CDT)
  4. Sonic is an instantly recognizable popculture icon. Samus, while popular with the gaming crowd, is not nearly as iconic or recognizable as the Blue Blur. Sonic's natural speed and strength makes him a much better character than Samus' tech-equipped from head-to-toe gear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.109.29.7 (talk • contribs) 21:46, 11 October 2014 (EDT)
  5. He's still waiting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.194.183 (talk • contribs) 20:43, 26 October 2014 (EDT)
  6. Trouble keeps you running faster, save the planet from disaster, spinning through a world in motion, take it all the way!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.67.248 (talk • contribs) 17:37, 3 November 2014 (EDT)
  7. Sonic has a speed advantage and he's more well known. I like him a lot, so he'll just keep rollin' around at the speed of sound for me I guess —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gbsim52 (talk • contribs) 12:44, 22 November 2014 (EST)

The blue text box for Sonic makes it to read. Maybe use a different, less bright color?Nuclear Hand (talk) 09:59, 8 August 2014 (EDT)

My signature is there, but it blends completely into the background. --Aqua Shield (talk) AquaShield.png 01:53, 13 August 2014 (EDT)

Sob... I can't vote between them! So putting this here instead (sorry). I love them both!!! Samus is the awesome super-woman with super-armor that saves everyone time and again and some of my favorite games (and my best character), and Sonic is my childhood hero and some of my favorite games (and ties for my 2nd best character). Oh, and since you all insist on forgetting, Samus can run about as fast as Sonic a la Speed Boost, though not in Smash (Wish we could Shinespark in Smash as well).

When is dis gonna change? 72.104.148.73 17:01, 25 September 2014 (EDT)

This has been here for about 4 months. Please can someone change it? 353.png Mesuxelf 19:22, 9 October 2014 (EDT)

The wiki is currently in a high red status. To make people focus more on helping the wiki, it won't change until we get back to yellow, which is probably in 6 months. I do agree that it should be changed, though. It's been on for a while. Qwerty (talk) 13:40, 11 October 2014 (EDT)

Are votes for this still being accecptedSmashmaster567 (talk) 11:09, 8 November 2014 (EST)

This fight is still the current fight, so votes are being accepted at the moment. Rtzxy Reflect.jpg Reflect!!! 11:55, 8 November 2014 (EST)

Wonder how I'm gonna die a "horrible painful death". :p Smash Master 00:39, 23 November 2014 (EST)

OK, the wiki is at yellow. Can we please have a new fight? Awesomelink234 PK FLASHBOMB! 20:43, 7 December 2014 (EST)

The plan is to up a new fight at the usual time (late Friday/early Saturday). Toomai Glittershine ??? The Irrepressible 20:38, 8 December 2014 (EST)

I was wondering. Since now that we have Conquest mode on Smash 4 and the fact that it acts similarly with Smash Arena (and it is perhaps more popular), will Smash Arena still be relevant? Dots (talk) Link OoT Dots.PNG The Ball 22:06, 8 December 2014 (EST)

I think they're different enough for this to survive, primarily in that conquests can only have playable characters, whereas Smash Arena can have stages, items, etc. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Multifaceted 22:14, 8 December 2014 (EST)
Not to mention bosses (my suggestion is in my talk page). Derpguy 64 (talk) 08:53, 12 December 2014 (EST)Derpguy 64

It's been more than half a year (7 months, to be precise). I honestly don't care who wins, but at a 40 to 42.5 score (with mah boi leading), I think it's fair to say this thing needs to end sometime soon. AidanzapunkSig.jpgBlueStreak Speeds By 11:37, 12 December 2014 (EST)

The battle went way overtime. How stupid that Sonic won due to making this battle way too long. Pathetic, editors!128.187.97.19 22:04, 16 December 2014 (EST)

Says the IP that started editing today and hasn't made any real contributions. Don't go around insulting other editors just because you're unhappy about the outcome of a match. Laikue (talk | contribs) 22:38, 16 December 2014 (EST)
