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. 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. 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.

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.

Round 92: Mewtwo vs. Ness

Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
It's time for Melee's two psychics to go head-to-head. Whose big brain will win out?

Votes for Mewtwo

  1. Super duper tuff god Pokemon. MegaTron1XD  18:24, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. Earthbound sucks. --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 18:45, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. Both games are good,but Mewtwo is more mysterious,which makes him cooler. Forbidden7 (talk) 19:09, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. One of the Super Special Super amped up over powered Falcon Punch mega Omega power level Over 9000 Legendary Pokemon ever! ..... :X   19:20, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Formerly the most powerful being in its universe until Arceus came around. Now a close second. Is Ness second in power only to his universe's god? Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 20:22, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. I miss Mewtwo in Super Smash Bros. - Jacobdf11 Ganon ftw (talk) 21:02, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. Although I like Earthbound, I like Pokemon better. And Mewtwo's one of my favorites. 76.16.238.29 21:49, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Mewtwo has had two of his own movies. Nostalgia for Generation I Pokémon. Ness is pretty darn awesome in his own right, however. Hawk 21 (talk) 23:55, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. While I like EarthBound, I like Pokémon more. I never played Melee, though.--PSIWolf 03:25, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. I find Ness' voice slightly annoying (not so much anymore now), his recovery (I'm talking about his up special) is...well, bizzare. Mewtwo, on the other hand however, in my opinion, is the strongest Pokemon ever and he/it also happens to be one of my favourite video game characters. --217.42.43.195 03:33, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. I've always hated Ness. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 03:47, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  12. One of my mains in both Melee and the Pokemon series. AND I HOPE THEY BRING MEWTWO BACK IN SSB4!. Zeldasmash (talk) 07:47, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  13. MEWTWO. IN. SSB4. NOW (or whenever Nintendo gets around to it. hopefully soon). P.S. Ness, your voice is extremely annoying. Also, stop being a bad influence 66.92.144.145 08:09, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Ness

  1. Mewtwo is kinda overrated. PK Random! --24.11.24.139 18:48, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. I like PK Flash DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs)   20:08, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. I'm essentially slightly better with Ness than Mewtwo, that's all. Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 22:11, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. This kid travels into his own mind and kills his own nightmare. That's about as much as you can expect from anyone. Miles (talk) 23:40, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. No PK and PSI = No cool Lucas-IV- PokeBomb  02:30, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Mewtwo took ages to unlock in Melee yet he wasn't actually that great to play as. Ness on the other hand I've always been decent with.110.174.90.69 02:33, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

Toomai, you forgot to make Ness use his Melee pic. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 20:23, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Why would you want Ness to have his Melee picture instead of his Brawl? --24.11.24.139 08:18, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
Because Mewtwo was only in Melee.--PSIWolf 08:21, 25 June 2011 (EDT)

My fight is up. Again, I will not be voting. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:19, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Round 91: Volt Tackle vs. Super Sonic

Winner!!
Super Sonic

24.5 to 10
A pair of fast-moving Final Smashes with slight control difficulty and significant damage on impact. Which one is more popular?

Votes for Volt Tackle

  1. Pikachu > sonic. And Super Sonic is way to overpowered. Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 08:34, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. Despite Super Sonic being easier to control, Volt Tackle has cooler effects, IMO. Squishyfrog Chat 08:42, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. I just dislike Sonic. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 11:12, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. PIKA-CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--Shaun's Wiji Dodo talk   12:20, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Pikachu is liek totes awesome. :P 76.16.238.29 12:31, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Uh oh... ZAP!! Ow! Hey! ZAP!! Ouch! No, wait, wait— ZAP!! Aahh! No, please! ZAP!! ZAP!! ZAP!! CriticalHit60 (talk) 14:49, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. I still hate third-party characters. Dr. 8-Bit (talk) 15:29, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. I just like it more.--2.28.105.139 17:30, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. Just because I'm sick of people who want Smash to turn into some sort of Sonic fighter with Nintendo characters thrown in.--Jelloratbob (talk) 19:02, 21 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. I'm sorry, but pikachu will pwn sonic anyday of the week, month, year, decade, and so on. Plus, Super Sonic has almost no control over what he does, Volt Tackle can be controlled for ultra awesome smashing & KOing fun. So, long story short: Pikachu > Sonic :> 67.161.169.125 23:37, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Super Sonic

  1. I NEVER with the capital N, be able control volt tackle Lucas-IV- Paper Tosser  08:26, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. I'LL SHOW YOU!!!--Wolf rulez!   YESH! WOLF! 08:32, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  3. The fact that Pikachu will nearly die in the Pokemon games if it used Volt Tackle makes it seem pathetic. In addition, inability to control Volt Tackle among anyone who does not use Pikachu is very common. MegaTron1XD  08:59, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  4. Super Sonic is easier to control in my opinion and has higher knockback. 110.174.90.69 09:11, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  5. Super sonic speeds that's what 68.197.115.28 10:04, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  6. Just Because DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs)   10:12, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  7. Sonic > Pikachu. Also, it's easier to control, doesn't give players seizures, begins with an awesome line "Now I'll show you!", hails from Sonic 2 (a great game), is less annoying, reminiscent of the Super Saiyans, has higher damage output, and in general is a better Final Smash. Hawk 21 (talk) 10:58, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  8. Cuz in the games, you always turn into him during the final boss and own. -Ivy73  11:10, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  9. Significantly easier to control. Nuff said. Zeldasmash (talk) 11:13, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  10. It pretty much destroys anyone! --66.222.171.225 14:46, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  11. Sonic is the best character in the game AND Super Sonic is awesomesauce on a stick! He destroys Volt Tackle! 68.174.11.29 16:35, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  12. Better control, more KO potential, more effectiveness...if you're not down with that, I've only got two words for ya: you're finished! Dark Mai Valentine (talk) 18:36, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  13. 3rd vote. ..... Right on. File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 18:38, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  14. It's one of the best Final Smashes in the game. Forbidden7 (talk) 19:04, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  15. The guy's pretty much Shin Akuma in this form for crying out loud. HavocReaper 19:43, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  16. They're actually both pretty good Final Smashes but..."Now I'll show you!". --217.43.54.168 04:57, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
  17. I COULD GO SUPER SONIC! AND JUST BEYOND IT! --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 18:17, 19 June 2011 (EDT)
  18. I love Pikachu, love his Volt Tackle, but I play more Sonic than I do Pokemon(or maybe that's just me), so I'm rooting for Super Sonic this time. --2.98.162.144 04:02, 20 June 2011 (EDT)
  19. Pikachu is hard to control, but Super Sonic can run free and do damage. MagicGallade (talk) 19:52, 20 June 2011 (EDT)User:MagicGallade
  20. Volt Tackle is too hard to control, I don't have problems with Super Sonic. 98.214.56.196 14:21, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
  21. epic--kyle.b talk  (contributions) 16:30, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
  22. cpu's using Super Sonic can actually KO me. That's all that needs to be said. 25T16 (talk) 23:35, 23 June 2011 (EDT)
  23. Easier to control, and has more chance of KOing. Mastersword (talk) 05:24, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Half Votes

  1. I slightly dislike it more, but it's all too powerful and can KO someone faster than Volt Tackle. A half vote for it, please. --24.11.24.139 12:07, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
  2. theres NO WAY to escape this!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Imaleaf1080 (talkcontribs) Time of Edit)
  3. I like Sonic more than Pikachu and I KO more with this than Volt Tackle.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.104.101 15:25, 20 June 2011 (EDT)

Lol Hawk21, you really pointed out my mistake.--Wolf rulez!   YESH! WOLF! 11:13, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

How do you make a half-vote section? --24.11.24.139 12:10, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

Type this: ==Half Votes== (your reason + signature)--Wolf rulez!   YESH! WOLF! 12:11, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
It's ===Half Votes=== I did it for you to avoid issues. DoctorPain99 (Talk • Contribs)   12:14, 18 June 2011 (EDT)
K. --24.11.24.139 12:24, 18 June 2011 (EDT)

I hate both of them. Seeing Volt Tackle do so much damage in one go makes me cringe, while Super Sonic is really powerful and lasts a while. I would have preferred Volt Tackle if it worked anime-style with effects like Marth's Critical Hit, and have Pulseman as an Assist Trophy instead. Seriously, I'd rather just be struck be a Critical Hit and have done with it, rather than seeing Volt Tackle going all cheap on everyone. ToastUltimatum (talk) 14:35, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

And who would those people happen to be, Jelloratbob? --FireEmblemFan275 (talk) 11:26, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Actually it's quite the opposite Jello. Unless you mean people who only like Brawl because Sonic is in it, because that's right >_>.Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 12:34, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

My comment is on top of all of the sonic votes, and I want to vote for pikachu. Can someone figure out what's wrong? 67.161.169.125 23:41, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

Thanks to whoever did that. 67.161.169.125 10:08, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
