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, or the stage considered more "fair", just vote if you are a total fanboy of the participant. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you don't have to have an account to vote! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.
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. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
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.
You may change or remove your vote at any time. To do this you must remove your old vote in its entirety; this is an exception to the "never remove comments" rule.
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). Extra spacing results in the list numbers becoming disjointed.
While previewing an edit of a single section, you will see loose formatting marks (such as a trailing |}). Do not alter or delete them; they are important to the page's construction and only take effect when the entire round is viewed.
If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.
Any comments about the fight should be left in the comments section. The following kinds of comments are not allowed:
Comments relating to how close or one-sided a matchup is.
Comments about other users' opinions. You can point out that a user may have gotten a fact wrong, but you can't say things along the lines of "That's not a good reason" or "But the other guy is better because X". Users can vote for any reason they want; trying to argue with someone's opinion generally has no positive outcome, in addition to simply inflating the comments section of an already rather long page.
If your vote is not added correctly - specifically, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have a short amount of time to fix it (typically between fifteen minutes to an hour). After this time, it may be corrected and 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.
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.
These Subspace Army members are polar opposites in nearly every way - size, power, multiplicity, and so on - though both are dangerous in their own right. Which humanoid gets the prize?
Votes for Mites
Sure, they're small, weak and easy to destroy, but think about it. They team up, rush towards you, and try their best to hurt you. And then die in battle. You've got to give them a little break. Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! (talk) 03:15, 26 November 2011 (EST)
Votes for Tabuu
Tabuu is a being MORE POWERFUL THAN MASTER HAND. Mites are annoying mooks. Smasher49 (talk) 21:07, 25 November 2011 (EST)
Mites can't even jump that high. They wouldn't be able to reach Tabuu if he stayed up high. But Tabuu can hit the Mites anywhere since he has projectile attacks. 110.174.90.69 21:10, 25 November 2011 (EST)

Wow. Just wow. I never thought this would ever show up. At this rate, there are 0 votes for Mites. Scratch that. 1 vote for Mites. Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! (talk) 03:01, 26 November 2011 (EST)
These two super-powerful rainbow-coloured items can't ever both be onscreen at once, so it's up to this round to pit them against each other to see which one is the bigger deal.
Votes for Smash Ball
Like these better. 204.191.129.218 23:09, 18 November 2011 (EST)
Final Smashes rock! 98.242.123.228 02:53, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Final Smashes are easier to hit with and are a lot more fun to use. 110.174.90.69 03:44, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Urm... it gives you final smashes! You don't need to know anything else. ☆TheSolarDragon☆ 04:00, 19 November 2011 (EST)

Final Smashes are designed to grant the player an epic KO. Dragoons, on the other hand, are meant as an actual tactical item, created as a means to introduce a level of uncertainty. This means Dragoons are more useful but Final Smashes tend to be more fun to use. Tough one here. Honestly, I'd go with Smash Ball, because no matter what, when you get it and use it properly, you'll be satisfied. With the Dragoon, however, when you're on a team, it becomes really annoying when the dragoon pieces are split between you and your teammate. Mr. Anontalk 19:32, 19 November 2011 (EST)
The Smash Ball is supposed to be the best item. Mastersword (talk) 21:27, 19 November 2011 (EST)
This is really hard to decide since they can both KO well, but KIRBY MAKES EVERYTHING SOUP, SONIC SLAMS INTO PPL's FACES, LINK SLICES U TO PIECES, etc. Kopykirby26 (talk) 21:32, 19 November 2011 (EST)
I'll admit it, I fail at using the dragoon, however the smash ball is better anyways.Yoshirocks341 (talk) 22:37, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Final Smashes are a lot more interesting. Plus the Dragoon is highly annoying during matches: while the Smash Ball goes away on its own after bit if no one gets it, the Dragoon tries to steal the spotlight throughout the entire match.89.153.148.130 05:33, 20 November 2011 (EST)
Meep. --174.59.4.202 13:41, 20 November 2011 (EST)
Missing a Dragoon shot feels absolutely awful. And I'm quite liable to do so. Toastltimatum 08:08, 21 November 2011 (EST)
The Smash Ball gives a lot more options and is easier to achieve. Even though the Dragoon Pieces are awesome, nothing can beat the Smash Ball --"'LightningBlue"' Blue Lighting Should Exist... (talk) 14:06, 22 November 2011 (EST)
You're not guaranteed dead if a cpu opponent obtains it. And while Smashballs can certainly be disruptive, they're not as much as Dragoon pieces appearing are, as pointed out by IP 89. Plus, final smashes are more interesting and entertaining. OmegaTyrant 15:50, 22 November 2011 (EST)

As cool as the Dragoon is, a Legendary Air Machine (which should have been the "Hydra", which fits the concept of "one-hit knockout/OHKO" better due to its sheer strength compared to the Dragoon's offensive stat) ramming into a fighter the same way each time is trumped by the epicness of the Triforce Slash, Great Aether, Zero Laser, Mario Finale, and a slew of other Final Smashes. Plus, the Smash Ball looks a little cooler. *Snake activates Final Smash at the same time as the Dragoon appears - ERROR* 131.193.13.53 18:09, 23 November 2011 (EST)
It gives you a wider and better array of epic attacks, because ramming into someone over and over again is annoying. Where's the variety in that? Not to mention that pure feeling of satisfaction when you show your opponent you true colors, and lay down a beating filled with pure ownage! Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! (talk) 13:25, 25 November 2011 (EST)
Definately better than the Dragoon. GormanLuigi (talk) 13:55, 25 November 2011 (EST)

I got to vote for the Smash Ball. Mainly, because the results are always different and unique depending on which fighter has it. From Critical Hits to Size Increase to Psychedelic Drug Fantasy, my vote is for the Smash Ball. Smasher49 (talk) 17:29, 25 November 2011 (EST)

I generally play with neither as they are both uber broken, but in most cases, Smash Ball is less broken. AntiAntiGuy (talk) 17:05, 20 November 2011 (EST)
The Smash Ball is the ultimate item! The smash has a better chance of KOing people. It's the best item in the Smash Bros world!!! from Justin D. Llvaina, the greatest smasher and fan.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.185.134.142 (talk • contribs) 23:28, 19 November 2011 (EST)

I was fighting some CPU Warios on Warioware, and then the minigame 'Stand Still' happened when I had all three Dragoon pieces and the Warios were next to each other. I fired away, 3 dragoon victims in one shot! --99.255.104.101 09:13, 19 November 2011 (EST)

Which is exactly what I did. --FireEmblemFan275 20:51, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Oh, we have a different context then. I was talking about the Dragoon's Half votes section {--€Lucas-IV-Arrow trap 20:58, 19 November 2011 (EST)
The Half-Votes section should only be used for comments that were not signed. --FireEmblemFan275 21:17, 19 November 2011 (EST)
I also don't get why X Smash's vote is half; is it possibly because of how he put his username before the quote, or something else?...Minna, miteite kure!MeleeMarth01 (talk) 14:47, 20 November 2011 (EST)
X Smash put their name before the #, which screws up the vote and results in it becoming a half vote. OmegaTyrant 14:52, 20 November 2011 (EST)
Actually, he originally put his comment below the line that said "Do not put comments before this line" and that was why we originally moved it to the half votes. Mr. Anontalk 15:03, 20 November 2011 (EST)
Thanks for explaining that, Omega and Anon. ...Minna, miteite kure!MeleeMarth01 (talk) 15:37, 20 November 2011 (EST))
