Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week 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 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. However, you are not to 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 are also not to post comments that are just pointing out/complaining how close/one sided a matchup is. These sorts of comments are worthless, and do nothing but make an already large page larger.
  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 105: Master Hand glitch vs. Black hole glitch

Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
Two of Melee's most infamous glitches, one relatively new and fascinating, the other notorious for years and more taxing on the system. Will the bug of infinite recursion or the apparently acceptable lack of input validation come out on top?

Votes for Master Hand glitch

  1. You need four people to do the Black Hole glitch. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:18, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  2. I think it was everyone's wish that they wanted to play as Master Hand at one point while playing Melee. Also, I love the idea of a glitch taking almost seven years to be found. ReiDemon 21:26, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  3. Never was able to pull off the black hole glitch. I don't know if its hard or I'm just stupid, but I've heard black hole can screw up your game anyway. So yeah, Master Hand FTW. --174.59.4.202 21:58, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  4. What Black Hole Glitch? 68.174.11.29 22:56, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  5. Best glitch ever. Blindcolours TONDA GOSSA. 22:57, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  6. I wrote much of the MHG article. DokteurPain99 23:04, 23 September 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Black hole glitch

  1. Beware! 66.222.173.139 21:48, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  2. While playing as Master Hand is pretty cool the Black hole glitch looks epic as. 110.174.90.69 22:23, 23 September 2011 (EDT)

Comments

Anon: That's false; there's a method that allows the Black Hole Glitch to occur through the use of two players, as can be seen on the respective page. That's actually the method I initially did until I found my third controller. ReiDemon 21:28, 23 September 2011 (EDT)

Round 104: Luigi vs. Link

Winner!!
Link

18.5 to 19
It's a pair of L-coloured green people on near-opposite ends of the jump ability spectrum and bravery scale. Who gets the verdant victory?

Votes for Link

  1. I don't play as either, but perhaps Luigi a little more. However, as a character, I think I slightly prefer Link. Link possesses the Triforce of Courage, Luigi can barely turn a doorknob. ToastUltimatum  Complaints Box 18:46, 16 September 2011 (EDT)

  3. My username says it all. Zeldasmash (talk) 20:26, 16 September 2011 (EDT)
  4. Link isn't cowardly, unlike Luigi. 110.174.90.69 21:50, 16 September 2011 (EDT)
  5. Luigi is a coward, Link is a hero. Link has the Triforce of Courage, and all Luigi has is a silly cap. Mastersword (talk) 01:57, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
  6. I so hate Luigi in Brawl. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 03:06, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
  7. James<3 (talk) 09:16, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
  8. Link is an awesome damsel-saving swordfighting jack-of-all-trades ACTION HERO, while Luigi is the coward to end all cowards. So what if Luigi can jump, Link. Is. Amazing.64.134.168.39 17:08, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
  9. Twilight Princess is awesome. 68.174.11.29 21:04, 17 September 2011 (EDT)
  10. Legend of Zelda is better then Mario in my opinion. Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 02:03, 18 September 2011 (EDT)
  11. ONLY LINK CAN DEFEAT GANON!Mr. Anon (talk) 12:58, 18 September 2011 (EDT)
  12. I use him in all three games, and I think he's underrated! ReiDemon 18:02, 18 September 2011 (EDT)
  13. It is written: Only Link can stop Luigi from becoming the undefeatable! 78.145.97.88 03:10, 19 September 2011 (EDT)
  14. The Hero of Time vs. The Hero's Brother? No contest. --Akirra' says: Meow! =^_^= 19:41, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
  15. Link beats Luigi Cherrim98 Talk 20:41, 21 September 2011 (EDT)

  17. Who's the guy armed with a sword, bow and arrows, bombs, a boomerang and a shield to boot? Not Luigi, that's for sure. 71.154.8.28 17:38, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
  18. Yeah, Weegee can be funny at times, but he's freaking annoying when I'm brawling, especially during his Final Smash. Takava (talk) 16:38, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
  19. LINK, MAH BOI. Luigi (or "WeeGee") is quite likable with his personality, Super Jump/Payday Fire Punch, and 1% damaging Taunt and all, but fighting with (and maining) the bow-bomb-boomerang-wielding swordsman decked in the green Hero's Clothes has gotten me through way more fights and events in the Super Smash Bros. series so far. Not to mention that he also possesses the Triforce of COURAGE, relentlessly vanquishing Ganondorf (as well as Zant and Vaati, among others) time and time again. Plus, he has ties to the very beautiful and hot ladies of Hyrule (Zelda/Sheik, Midna, Ilia, Telma, Ashei, Iza, Hena, etc.), so that's a bonus. AND he can turn into a BA wolf. And 'I liek swords' a lot, to boot. He also flawlessly sheathes his Master Sword and down-stabs enemies with ease, defending himself with the superb Hylian shield, if necessary. Finally, we can't forget Link's awesome punishing finishers, the Hurricane Blade (Spin Attack) and the epic Triforce Slash, both of which seal the deal in Link's favor. SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK! 131.193.3.93 16:46, 23 September 2011 (EDT)

@78.145.97.88 Actually, Captain Falcon already did. By one half vote. >:( --174.59.4.202 07:26, 19 September 2011 (EDT)

I'm liking the theme for this match, as well as the various parallels being brought to light in the comments, like in that 'doorknob' comment above (i.e., the courageous Link vs. the frightened Luigi). The comments are amusing as well! 131.193.3.93 16:46, 23 September 2011 (EDT)
