This forum has the purpose of helping to select what battles will eventually take place in the Smash Arena. If you would like to make a suggestion, please feel free to leave it here. New suggestions are placed at the bottom of the page. Be sure to state your reason you suggested it and put the support, reject, and comments sections underneath it.
Like the idea? Be sure to give it your support. Note that this page is not to be used for the actual voting between fighters; that happens in the Arena itself. Remember, the combatants don't necessarily have to be able to fight each other normally in Smash Bros.
Rules
- The SA operator(s) has final say over all the fights. Suggestions and comments are merely a way for the community to influence the fights.
- Sign your suggestions/votes/comments with ~~~~ and a # in front of it (you don't necessarily have to put # in the comments sections, but you do have to sign with ~~~~).
- Don't vote for your own suggestion. You automatically vote for it if you suggest it.
- Do not post more than one suggestion at a time. Each user may post one suggestion per week.
- Post why you support/oppose. Don't just say, "Oh, this is a cool idea". Explain why you like/don't like the fight.
- You can remove your own suggestion, but it still counts as your suggestion for that week.
- Similarly to the above, you cannot edit a suggestion once people have started to vote on it. Editing the description is fine; just don't replace, add, or remove combatants.
- Place new suggestions at the bottom of the page. If you place them at the top, they may be lost.
- Do not use this page to argue with other users over their reasons and opinions. You can civilly point out an inconsistency or mistake in their description, but if you say things like, "That's stupid", that could potentially start an argument in the comments, you are breaching this rule.
- The comments section is to be used for relevant comments.
- Check this list to view the fights that have been done; currently no repeat fights are permitted.
- Suggestions are purged every time a new Smash Arena round is posted. It is at this time they are either accepted and placed into the queue, or they are rejected. Not all suggestions are purged at once.
- In the vein of the above, do not repost a suggestion of yours that has been removed, since it's either already lined up or been rejected. Reposting it after time has passed is generally a bad idea, since if it's already in the queue it's a waste of time, and if it was rejected the first time chances are it will remain that way. See the Queue section for an idea of how long it may take for your suggestion to show up.
- Only Smash Bros.-related fights are permitted. Fights don't have to be between playable characters, but the combatants must have appeared in at least one Smash Bros. game.
- Acceptance of fights is not based simply on votes. The votes are used to judge the community's opinion of the matchup; again it is solely the operator(s)'s decision on what the bouts are.
- If there are already 10 open suggestions, you should probably reconsider adding a new one. If there are 15, it is highly recommended you do not. There is no limit to the number of open suggestions, but having too many clutters the page and makes it more difficult to keep track of.
- And finally, do not make this page into the Smash Arena itself. This is for deciding what goes there, not voting on which would win.
Queue
The current queue is as such:
83 | 84 | 85 | 86 | 87 | 88 | 89 | 90 | 91 | 92 | 93 |
Hover the cursor over a round number to see its predicted start date. Empty spots are shown in grey.
When the queue becomes full (all the grey spots are filled up), suggestions will be suspended. You may continue to vote on current suggestions, but no more may be proposed. Once the queue drains out to a size of one, suggestions will be re-opened.
The queue is not set in stone; new suggestions may appear before older ones and it may change at any time. The queue is designed to attempt to balance out fights so that participants or universes aren't used too much in a short time.
The contents of the queue are a secret to maintain mystery and intrigue.

Suggestions
Melee Falco vs. Brawl Falco
Now before you shoot this suggestion down saying "oh it's a fight between the same character, boooriiing", consider this;
- Falco saw the most changes between Melee and Brawl, going through large changes atheistically and large changes in his moveset.
- Falco saw nerfs in some areas, saw buffs in some areas, and saw complete changes in others, changing his playstyle quite drastically.
- Falco is currently the only character who is considered top tier in both games (Marth used to be as well, until his tier demotion in the recent Melee tier list).
- Falco is the most debatable character on whether he is better or worse overall in the transition to Brawl.
So, will you deride this matchup for "involving the same character", or will you like to see which incarnation of Falco has larger fan approval? Omega Tyrant 04:19, 18 April 2011 (EDT)
Support
- Greatly support, this has been debated for a while whether falco has been buffed of nerfed more, there was even a time when Falco was the same number on the melee and brawl tier lists.--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk 04:30, 18 April 2011 (EDT)
- For players who really cares to seek and have some experiment in Melee and Brawl, this must be an important battle! So, how can people say "no" to this, even I don't play Melee! And, from your words, it looks like lots of nerf and buff happened. Well then, call me stupid because even I don't play Melee, but I care about this! Kirbythe Amazing 08:22, 18 April 2011 (EDT)
- 'K, let's just say this is like the melee vs brawl marth. WRONG! Melee marth and brawl marth=totally lookalike. melee falco and brawl falco, not so lookalike. pretty interesting duhLucasthefourth Spartan birds 09:11, 18 April 2011 (EDT)

- Sorry but even with your detailed description of why they are different, I still think that fighting yourself is stupid. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 18:04, 18 April 2011 (EDT)
- Are you guys insane? Falco vs Falco? Mastersword (talk) 02:48, 19 April 2011 (EDT)
Comments
@Solar Dragon and Mastersword: You guys do realise the Smash Arena is a popularity contest and not actual fights? Also, technically, they are not the same character in the Smash series, but rather, different incarnations (for them to be the "same Smash character", they would have to be in the same Smash game, and have every single thing about them exactly identical). Now perhaps provide an oppose reason other than "oh it's the same character" that I already pointed out won't suffice? :p
And Mastersword, calling people insane for supporting this matchup with logical reasoning doesn't make your oppose case any stronger. Omega Tyrant 03:06, 19 April 2011 (EDT)

- Rewording the intro would be nice, as many of us don't know what you mean with the "runner up" thing. And outside of whatever that part means, these two lack notable compare/contrasts, and all in all this seems just to be a random matchup to me. Omega Tyrant 06:21, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

Congo Jungle vs Jungle Japes
Congo Jungle utilizes the amazing graphics and sounds of classic jungle levels of Donkey Kong Country, a personal childhood favorite of mine. Plus, it's hella fun to launch your foe into a beautiful background with occasional vulture cameos. Finally, Giant Donkey Kong takes a stand here in the original SSB.
Jungle Japes' scenery more based upon everyone's favorite fourth-wall breaker, Cranky Kong in his Cabin, comes complete with another amazing sunset, water, and a super long ceiling. Not to mention, the DK Rap! Oh, and the Giant DK makes another return here. HavocReaper 18:01, 20 April 2011 (EDT)

- Why not? They're both from DK, they're interesting stages, and I'd like to see who comes on top. This counts as my reason, as well as reasons below if more are added. Mastersword (talk) 18:53, 20 April 2011 (EDT)
- Support this battle will be epic! Not only are these stages from the Donkey Kong series but they are also the stages which he has his highest matchups on.--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk 19:35, 20 April 2011 (EDT)

- Similar to the Fox vs. Wolf suggestion, I don't really find this suggestion interesting and thoughtful, but being rivals/main protagonist vs. main antagonist makes it an automatic Smash Arena matchup in my eyes. Omega Tyrant 06:21, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

Hammer vs Golden Hammer
Both are very powerful, they play a classic tune when picked up. However, with the small chances of getting a headless hammer or a squeaky respectively, the users may end up being the vulnerable ones. --204.191.142.56 21:30, 22 April 2011 (EDT)

Ganondorf vs. Pichu
Ganondorf and Pichu are on the dead bottom of the tier list (SSBB's for Ganon and SSBM's for Pichu). While both try to play at the top of their game, they end up being tournament punching bags. Will the rodent of high voltages blast Ganon out of his mind, or will Ganondorf Warlock Punch Pichu and show his power? Mastergameandwatch (talk) 22:06, 22 April 2011 (EDT)
