Forums: Index Smash Arena Smash Arena


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.
  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.

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.

Round 71: Mario vs. Mr. Game & Watch

Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
Two of Nintendo's oldest icons - one the most famous, the other the most unexpected. They both are jacks-of-all-trades, they both help whomever needs it, and they both have experience with existing in two dimensions at once - which one will win?

  1. i love Paper Mario! it's so much fun! (I never seen G&W outside of brawl...) so I vote for Mario!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.70.123.121 (talkcontribs) 10:09. January 28, 2011
  2. Mario vs Game and watch? You must be kidding... Game and watch is sure great, but Mario is SO better, Mario's games are more colorful, greater, characters include! And Luigi is from Mario series. In brawl, Mr. G&W's moves are Uncool, while the mario finale is AWESOME!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.132.220.206 (talkcontribs) 8:27, January 29, 2011

Votes for Mr. Game & Watch

  1. I hate Mario, and seeing as how G&W is a good ally in doubles, vote for the better character.MegaTron1XD  22:04, 28 January 2011 (EST)
  2. Mr. Game and Watch is one of my favorite characters and one of my mains. He has great momentum cancel with Oil Panic, Judgment #9, great recovery, and an unpredictable air game. If this was about the characters' franchises, I would pick Mario in a flash, but this is Smash Bros. Brawlingbrian  LANDMASTER! 22:23, 28 January 2011 (EST)

  9. For a light character, Mr. G has good KO potential. He can defeat foes pretty fast. Mario's cool, but times change. This 2-D character has my vote. Lili Rochefort 1965 (talk) 09:17, 29 January 2011 (EST)
  10. Even though i like Mario better, Game and Watch started Nintendo's gaming era if it wasn't for the Game and Watches we wouldn't have Mario. also Game and Watch is the oldest thing in Nintendo gaming era.Pikachu8090 (talk) 10:00, 29 January 2011 (EST)

Round 70: Giga Bowser vs. Crazy Hand

Winner!!
Giga Bowser

21 to 12
It's a contest between Melee's two secret bosses, both with corrupted movesets full of darkness and other wacko stuff. Brawl definitely gave the lefty the short end of the stick, giving Giga Bowser Final Smash status and leaving Crazy Hand out of the Subspace Emissary. Will this be a battle of revenge?

Votes for Giga Bowser

  1. Unique idea: only boss with a damage meter and not an HP meter. Miles (talk) 21:18, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  2. He's so different from every boss. He has a damage meter and makes the transition from a boss to a Final Smash quite smoothly.MegaTron1XD  21:43, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  3. He's better speed and super powerful. Very different from the other bosses and owns. ..... (talk) 22:13, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  4. In Brawl, it's total annihiliation for 10 seconds. In Melee, it's the greatest boss ever.-Ivy73  22:17, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  5. Easier to Knee, YESH, and Pawnch. HavocReaper 23:40, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  6. He's basicly a death machineLordNock (talk) 23:44, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  7. giga bowser is the coolest boss EVER! crazy hand is just, well, a crazy hand!
  8. Crazy Hand is easy to kill and seeing as Bowser can kill Crazy Hand easily, Giga Bowser would completely destroy him. 110.174.90.69 02:35, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  9. Giga Bowser is a boss much more unique then any other boss. He got a full moveset, and is only boss playable (atleast in Brawl). --UilMash (talk) 03:06, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  10. Giga Bowser FTW! Zero (talk) 04:13, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  11. I like Giga more. ☆The Solar (EST)Dragon☆ 04:20, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  12. Crazy Hand is a joke. 24.168.90.121 21:54, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  13. Gigaaaa Bowseeerrrr!!! I vote him because he's a boss that you can actually control, even though I don't use him much. He also pwns Crazy Hand and Master Hand combined. 79.10.138.50 03:56, 23 January 2011 (EST)Dragon
  14. His Melee incarnation at the end of Adventure mode was easily my favorite Smash Bros. boss, and one of my favorite bosses in any video game. I was heavily disappointed that he didn't return in Brawl in boss form, and the closer thing to him in Brawl was a giant, dull Mario who is more frustrating than fun to fight :/ I have such fond memories of battling Giga Bowser with Ganondorf. Omega Tyrant   06:56, 23 January 2011 (EST)
  15. I enjoyed the fact that I could land so many knees on Giga Bowser in Event 51 of SSBM, while Crazy Hand moved too much for me to even land one. Welikeikeandfoxes (talk) 16:18, 24 January 2011 (EST)
  16. Giga Bowser versus Master Hand? What a joke. Giga Bowser doesn't flinch from attacks (in Brawl, at least), and has a damage meter rather than an HP meter, meaning that he can live pretty much indefinitely.Hawk 21 (talk) 18:32, 24 January 2011 (EST)
  17. Heh. In Melee, this guy puts up a good fight and he was a worthy adversary in my little 'ole eyes. Best challenge I have ever endeavored. When it comes to Brawl, I just love being Giga for a "day". His theme music also rocks! Lili Rochefort 1965 (talk) 10:01, 25 January 2011 (EST)
  18. giga bowser can't be KOed unless it's a SD Goatcathead (talk) 23:06, 25 January 2011 (EST)
  19. Giga Bowser is so much fun to fight, I remember beating him at the end of Adventure Mode with Pichu, how I first beat him in the final event match as Dr. Mario, and how I juggled him across the stage on his last stock as Weegee when I did it without losing a life, KOing him with a fair (I think). Good times. Goooooood times... Anthony1996 (talk) 20:25, 26 January 2011 (EST)

  1. I dont have Melee but in Brawl He is Awesome Giga bowser is beast!!!98.116.118.143 14:04, 22 January 2011
  2. I really respect this guy. In melee he creamed me time and time again. Also Crazy/Master hand is way too easy even on intense BB.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.92.85.217 (talkcontribs) 8:17, January 22, 2011
  3. Crazy Hand needs Master hand to be anywhere near difficult to kill, and Giga Bowser is annoyingly brutal in Melee, and his event number is 1 higher than the Hands' event, and way harder as well. Also, I'm pretty sure at least one of Giga Bowsers' hands would already be crazy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fuddlebob (talkcontribs) 2:49, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  4. I Never got a chance to see crazy hand... and giga Bowser looks.. umm... Worse... and, EVIL! Mario Series rocks!!!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.250.165.80 (talkcontribs) 4:15, January 25, 2011

Votes for Crazy Hand

  1. Come on, who doesn't like Master Hand's mirror alternative? Besides, I never liked Giga Bowser from the start. One reason was that he was creepy and annoying, and then now when I find out that I can still damage him, I just think of him as a ... sheep in a wolf's clothing, if that makes any sense. Brawlingbrian  LANDMASTER! 21:12, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  2. I choose crazy hand, why? coz he's CRAAAAAAAZZYYYYYYY!!Lucasthefourth   PokeySparta 23:21, 21 January 2011 (EST)
  3. I've just got a thing for crazy stuff, and Giga just ain't that crazy. – SmiddleT 04:34, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  4. Crazy hand dominates!!!!!Mesprit, Uxie, Azelf. Mesuxelf 07:13, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  5. Crazy Hand is awesome!! He could kill Giga Bowser if we could ACTUALLY SEE a battle Fghrty77 (talk) 10:55, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  6. Yay! My fight is up! I choose Crazy Hand because I've always thought of him as a really cool boss. Mr. Anon (talk) 13:05, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  7. it was always funny when he did a seizure right in the ground near me, and I couldn't escape XD.Vincent Tran Blorbs?  13:30, 22 January 2011 (EST)
  8. Because crazy hand crazy and I'm CRAZIEH!!! Nyeh heh heh heh!!!KirbytheAmazing (talk) 04:31, 24 January 2011 (EST)
  9. Just like Crazy hand more- Jacobdf11 Ganon ftw (talk) 06:56, 24 January 2011 (EST)
  10. Crazy Hand. I never was able to beat him, even in normal mode. I vote here because, well, I've never even fought Giga Bowser!198.166.220.113 21:38, 24 January 2011 (EST)
  11. I like Crazy Hand (and Master Hand) much more then Giga Bowser. Thus, I'm voting for Crazy Hand. --81.155.93.48 05:24, 26 January 2011 (EST)
  12. I like Crazy Hand Better Because i Ha-te the way Giga Bowser Looks but, if it was for the series BOWSER ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!! YoshiKartWii (talk) 19:31, 26 January 2011 (EST)

Can't chooce until now -_- Lucasthefourth   PokeySparta 22:26, 21 January 2011 (EST)

Hmm, i guess Crazy hand would do... Lucasthefourth   PokeySparta 23:20, 21 January 2011 (EST)

Partially Giga Bowser is invincible and all the other bosses are not so this is why I voted for him. ..... (talk) 10:15, 22 January 2011 (EST)

Well choose what you want to vote.
Technically, Giga Bowser is not an invincible boss, since it his final smash incarnation that has the infinite super armor while his boss form in Melee had none. Also, even in his final smash incarnation, he is not invincible. He still takes damage, and he can even be KO'd outside SDing, if he is hit by any hitstun producing hitbox when above the upper blast line. Omega Tyrant   06:56, 23 January 2011 (EST)

I have absolutely no idea who to choose. 198.166.220.113 12:11, 22 January 2011 (EST) One has dark claws, electro shell, bomb horns, and blizzard spin. while the other can grab, bomb, pummel, pound, impale, run over, and lauch at you. Hhhmmmmmm... LordNock (talk) 13:41, 22 January 2011 (EST)

Well, If you can't choose a proper reason to vote, why not vote over something trivial? Like, say... Giga Bowser is bigger, or Crazy hand has more fingers on each (...) hand? I'm sure you can think of something that would be almost no help in a fight... Fuddlebob (talk) 06:40, 23 January 2011 (EST)\

Giga Bowser can die from a rest from Jigglypuff while he's standing on Smashville, and yes i said standing- Jacobdf11 Ganon ftw (talk) 07:00, 24 January 2011 (EST)

I thaught that Crazy hand would win big time! Mesprit, Uxie, Azelf. Mesuxelf 15:19, 24 January 2011 (EST)

OT, if you look at the page history, both 12 and 13 are the same vote (by YoshiKartWii). Brawlingbrian  LANDMASTER! 08:48, 27 January 2011 (EST)

I see that now, but you should have clarified more, and/or edited so the vote didn't appear as two different votes after you removed the number sign. Omega Tyrant   08:52, 27 January 2011 (EST)

When does this end? ..... (talk) 20:40, 28 January 2011 (EST)

Typically rounds end once I realize it's Friday evening. Toomai Glittershine   The SMASH-GINEER 22:02, 28 January 2011 (EST)
