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

When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature.
You can only vote once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not.
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.
Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
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.
You may only vote in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it).
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 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.

Round 78: Suicune vs. Deoxys

	Winner!! undecided 0 to 0
While these two Pokémon don't have too much in common normally (aside from being legendaries), their appearances in Brawl are interestingly juxtaposed: both beam attacks that are almost sure to KO, but they fire perpendicularily and one is a single hit while the other is a cluster of them. Which of them has the upper hand?
Votes for Suicune Never vote for a Gen III pokemon. That's my rule. Even if it is better in almost every way. Fuddlebob (talk) 02:37, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Deoxys never seems to hit my opponents because he fires vertically. Suicine on the other hand fires horizontally so it tends to hit them more often. 110.174.90.69 05:22, 19 March 2011 (EDT) I like its attack in Melee 'cause it traps opponents, but tends to freeze light characters, such that it allows them to escape from it. The attack in Brawl has a great chance of KOing your friendly adversary. Personally, I go for the Melee incarnation. Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 11:46, 19 March 2011 (EDT) ^Person above me pretty much sums everything up^ --204.191.140.144 12:59, 19 March 2011 (EDT) One of my suggestions! Although they both OHKO, Suicune's beam duration lasts only a split second, but is somehow so much more accurate and deadly; Deoxys' beam never hits my opponent, although it lasts for a few seconds. Also, my other reason is from Pokemon. Deoxys' is generally overrated because its stats are not balanced in any of his four Formes, which punches holes in his battle strategy; Attack and Normal Formes rely on OHKOing your opponent Pokemon before it attacks you, which means that if the opponent survives the first turn, Deoxys is pretty much dead. Defense Forme only creates an annoyingly long battle, and Speed Forme is actually decent but rarely used. Suicune, on the other hand, is only a few stat levels short of Deoxys', but actually has balanced stats that help in every aspect of battle. Also, to you Deoxys voters, Hyper Beam is a two- turn attack, so the opponent can attack before obliteration: instant death (for Deoxys). Brawlingbrian LAND MASTER! 14:48, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Epic win. `Mesprit, Uxie, Azelf. Mesuxelf` 15:01, 19 March 2011 (EDT) It's a total KO, and it freeze. Deoxyz attack is definitely predictable Lucasthefourth PK Thunder!! 00:39, 20 March 2011 (EDT) It's bettar. No arguments given. Diedie98 (talk) 10:28, 20 March 2011 (EDT) I us Suicune for competitive battling, not Deoxis Jt45fan (talk) 09:45, 21 March 2011 (EDT) Gen 2 > Gen 3. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:41, 21 March 2011 (EDT) I still have no clue what deoxys is supposed to be.Floor2000x (talk) 21:18, 21 March 2011 (EDT) Half-Votes I remember when my cousin and I spent hours looking for and trying to catch Raichu and Entei. Not the same as Suicune, but close enough. Those were good times. Mr. Anon (talk) 12:00, 19 March 2011 (EDT)		Votes for Deoxys Deoxys has been a fav Pokemon ever since it appeared, and it remains as top 10 today. Mega Tron1 XD 00:07, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Suicune: Can learn quite a few Ice-type moves. Deoxys: Can change formes(and yes I said "formes") from meteors, create clones and often changes formes with auroras just to make it look cool. No prizes for guessing who'll win this one.Rising Dragon (talk) 01:09, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Deoxys has more style. Zero (talk) 06:49, 19 March 2011 (EDT) why did deoxys is better? 'cause it has lots of forms!!! --77.127.204.199 07:19, 19 March 2011 (EDT) My Number #3 best pokemon. Nuff said. Zeldasmash (talk) 08:42, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Gen III ftw -Ivy 73 10:29, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Show me your POWAH!!!!206.53.152.102 10:56, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Oh come on! Deoxys can change forms! Offensive, defensive, speedy, etc. He's my 4th fav Pokemon!Kirbythe Amazing 11:01, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Slow start up on the Hyper Beam though but in Pokemon he has good speed, attack and he can change forms. Hows that for ownage? ..... (talk) 11:08, 19 March 2011 (EDT) He rapes. That is all.Vincent Tran IT'S OVER 9000!!! 15:36, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Hyper Beam is better than a stupid Ice Beam. The White Blur , The Whitest Thing Alive' I prefer Gen 3. Havoc Reaper 18:03, 19 March 2011 (EDT) From one point, I hate Deoxys... because he let Rayquaza being bad and evil, and Rayquaza is one of my favourites... I own Shiny fateful encounter Suicune in my Pokemon "White" version copy, Yes, I own one! My point is in Brawl, Deoxys is more cool and great... But I still think out of brawl, Why Deoxys made Rayquaza angry? Rayquaza just done it's job! well, Watch the power of aura! --89.139.218.26 04:34, 20 March 2011 (EDT) Deoxys is WAY better than Suicune. It can regenerate, clone itself, and has stood it's ground against Rayquaza. 25T16 (talk) 12:52, 20 March 2011 (EDT) Deoxys has a big gem in its chest that contains its life force, plus it has multiple forms. What more could you ask for? Jedizora (talk) 13:33, 20 March 2011 (EDT) Is it possible for a pokeball pokemon to be Nerfed? If so, thats what happend to SuicuneLordNock (the guy with the pie) (talk) 13:50, 20 March 2011 (EDT) Deoxys sounds so cool, like a poison, almost, and its attack, Hyper Beam also sounds really cool, and is deadly! Critical Hit, and... KO! 08:09, 21 March 2011 (EDT) Half-Votes Hyper beam can also be learned by Lucario,not just thtis guy.Thats the point>-Luke5176....fire emblem kills,man—Preceding unsigned comment added by Luke5176 (talk • contribs) 9:48, 20 March 2011
Comments A round of "not in common" contestants, interesting, well see whose wins. ..... (talk) 00:16, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Ok... How did i do that to my vote??? (Oh good it's back to normal......) Rising Dragon (talk) 02:16, 19 March 2011 (EDT) What's wrong with the voting system? I voted for Suicune, but why's my vote on Deoxy's side? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.191.140.144 (talk • contribs) 13:02, 19 March 2011 (EDT) You put your vote in the wrong place because of the other vote that was also in the wrong place. You have about an hour to fix it before it becomes a half-vote. Toomai Glittershine The Incomprehensible 13:14, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Nooooooooo! my good voting streak is over! Please forgive me, master Toomai! Mr. Anon (talk) 14:01, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Your forgiven. ..... (talk) 18:01, 19 March 2011 (EDT)

Round 77: Rumble Falls vs. Icicle Mountain

	Winner!! Rumble Falls 24.5 to 10
Two vertically-scrolling stages go head-to-head. Does the jungle waterfall or skyscraping glacier climb higher?
Votes for Rumble Falls I loved Jungle Beat. Mega Tron1 XD 19:57, 11 March 2011 (EST) I hated how Icicle Mountain always changed direction at the worst possible times. 110.174.90.69 20:32, 11 March 2011 (EST) It has music from Donkey Kong Country. That's all. Havoc Reaper 20:42, 11 March 2011 (EST) Donkey Kong Country music is the best!--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk 23:44, 11 March 2011 (EST) At least you get a warning when the stage decides to speed up! --204.191.140.144 00:24, 12 March 2011 (EST) Ready? go! I LIKE THE MUSIC!!!--89.139.218.26 01:07, 12 March 2011 (EST) Music, and tha's that.#Vincent Tran IT'S OVER 9000!!! 02:15, 12 March 2011 (EST) I don't play meleeLucasthefourth PK Thunder!! 04:18, 12 March 2011 (EST) For the music alone. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 04:33, 12 March 2011 (EST) I know this place more than Icicle Mountain. Smasher Pikachu 06:44, 12 March 2011 (EST) Doing a combo that ends with the spike = usually KO. And besides, the songs are from DKC.Zero (talk) 08:06, 12 March 2011 (EST) Because THIS... IS... RUMBLE FALLS!!!206.53.152.104 09:05, 12 March 2011 (EST) Of course because I don't have MeleeKirbythe Amazing 09:12, 12 March 2011 (EST) Random choose. I don't play icicle mountains a lot in melee. ..... (talk) 09:49, 12 March 2011 (EST) It's amazing! It's cool! It's great! It's in SSBB!--77.127.204.199 10:05, 12 March 2011 (EST) I like this stage for its waterfall scenery. Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 10:59, 12 March 2011 (EST) I don't play Melee. DK is better --85.64.91.232 12:23, 12 March 2011 (EST) cool music--Peach67809 (talk) 17:31, 12 March 2011 (EST) The music is better. Also, SPIKES! Anthony1996 (talk) 21:04, 12 March 2011 (EST) They're both terrible throwaway stages, and I do think Super Smash Bros. Melee is a far superior game, but I think I'll go with Rumble Falls just because I like the Donkey Kong series. Ice Climber, not so much. Hawk 21 (talk) 23:35, 12 March 2011 (EST) I think Rumble falls would totally win, it has a lot more destructive features then icicle mountain--kyle.b talk 12:11, 14 March 2011 (EDT) I've never played on either of them, but Rumble Falls looks more fun. Critical Hit, and... KO! 09:47, 15 March 2011 (EDT) I actually hate Icicle Mountain more than Rumble Falls. 92.26.208.184 04:21, 17 March 2011 (EDT) Half votes Awsome music espesially battle for storm hill---- luke5176 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Luke5176 (talk • contribs) 6:36, 12 March 2011 Between these two, its no contest, Rumble Falls ROCKS!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.108.142.19 (talk • contribs) 7:45, 12 March 2011 I hate stages that move up. I just hate this one the least.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.100.198.209 (talk • contribs) 22:33, 12 March 2011		Votes for Icicle Mountain I hate them both equally, but at least icicle mountain has the virtue of being randomly-generated, I THINK. Fuddlebob (talk) 20:34, 11 March 2011 (EST) I loved beating the crap out of those Topis. -Ivy 73 21:10, 11 March 2011 (EST) I hate both stages, but Icicle Mountain I like sort of better. The White Blur , The Whitest Thing Alive' Never really liked DK series. --77.253.13.236 01:26, 12 March 2011 (EST) Not because I like Icicle Mountain, because I hate Rumble Falls.Mr. Game & Watch fan (talk) 06:44, 12 March 2011 (EST) Rumble Falls has OHKO spikes. Also, I liked Icicle Mountain better.Kenniky (talk) 09:06, 12 March 2011 (EST) Rumble Falls has much bigger hazards than Icicle Mountain had. Icicle mountain is more balanced, even though they're both banned.Diedie98 (talk) 01:52, 13 March 2011 (EST) Icicle Mountain because Rumble Falls is in the same series as the stage that must not be named, but I'll name it anyway - 75m. 68.174.11.29 20:53, 14 March 2011 (EDT)' No hazards, beating up animals, and Rumble Falls was from a non-RARE DK game.

Comments My fight is up! I can't decide. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:29, 11 March 2011 (EST) I hate all side-scrolling levels. they are utter annoying, especially when you get stuck HTK has just knocked you off the stage (talk) 22:46, 11 March 2011 (EST) Yeah, Not tournament legal. ..... (talk) 23:11, 11 March 2011 (EST) Eh. Is my vote correct now? Diedie98 (talk) 01:55, 13 March 2011 (EST) Yes. Omega Tyrant 01:55, 13 March 2011 (EST) I know I've had to make some tough decisions before, but this battle is so stupid that I'm not even voting this round. Brawlingbrian LAND MASTER! 09:32, 13 March 2011 (EDT) That's nice. Did you know that it was I who suggested this fight? I brought it up because it is a fitting fight. RF is the spiritual successor of IM. Both are considered fun but unfair stages in their respective games. One depicts a warm, tropical environment, while the other displays an icy, arctic one. I'm fine with you not liking my fight but going out of your time to comment and say "this battle is so stupid that I'm not even voting this round" without even giving a reason... Mr. Anon (talk) 22:00, 16 March 2011 (EDT) I apologize, I was in a very bad mood at the time. Now that I think about it, I don't even know why I said that. Brawlingbrian LAND MASTER! 23:14, 18 March 2011 (EDT) Yah, i think icicle mountain is going down--kyle.b talk 12:49, 14 March 2011 (EDT) Don't you mean Icicle Mountain is going to be shattered!--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk 09:59, 15 March 2011 (EDT) Damn right!--kyle.b talk 12:11, 16 March 2011 (EDT) well, thanks god at last we got a stage battle!Kirbythe Amazing 20:48, 16 March 2011 (EDT) you know, stage battles have happened before.--kyle.b talk 10:06, 17 March 2011 (EDT) I know that, I'm not stupid.
