Round 231: Samus vs. Sonic

		Winner!! Sonic 40 to 43.5
They curl up into balls and roll around at high speed. They have nemeses that refuse to go away. They're of opposite colours and personalities. Which one's the winner?
Votes for Samus Probably just a quick vote of some sort. Nothing much to say. Dots (talk) The Keyboard 14:26, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Samus is underrated, Sonic pisses me off. Any voter who mentions "Yur too slow" in their voting will die a horrible painful death.Qwerty da beast 15:24, 26 July 2014 (EDT) --Myth 15:42, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Berrenta (talk) 21:14, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Sonic has much better mobility and slightly better KO moves, but Samus isn't too far behind in the latter field, and her projectile game mitigates her problems in the former. She overall has better endurance (especially horizontally) and is a lot more fun to use. I also think Samus's aerials (except for b-air) are better. Blue Ninjakoopa 21:24, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Neither were great to me in Brawl, but at least Samus was pretty fun in Melee.71.108.118.204 23:17, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Sonic is complete crap in Brawl, plus, Samus has only made one "meh" game, while Sonic has made at least three TERRIBLE games. Laikue (talk) 23:49, 26 July 2014 (EDT) 60.231.176.168 00:39, 27 July 2014 (EDT) I hate sonic in brawl. His moves were boring,weak and cheap. But samus has much more to show for. And if we're talking actual character comparison, I like sonic, but he can be annoying *cough*YOU'RE TOO SLOW*cough* and at least samus didn't have a game made in 2006 that almost ruined the franchise! TheAtomicFire 08:44, 27 July 2014 (EDT) I never liked Sonic nor Samus (besides Zamus) in Smash, but outside of Smash, Samus wins, no contest. Her series consists of games that are actually, you know, good. Even Other M, the game that "almost ruined the series", has its fans. DoctorPain99 09:19, 27 July 2014 (EDT) Samus is my most favourite Nintendo character. Her moves are nice, Many projectiles, her recovery is Ok and she has the longest grab range.Vegeta8001 (talk) 11:49, 27 July 2014 (EDT) 180.149.192.132 03:08, 29 July 2014 (EDT) Because Samus is awesome and Sonic is slightly less so. ScizorSteelix 17:15, 29 July 2014 (EDT) I've actually been playing a lot of Samus in Project M lately. Aside from that, I've never been a true fan of Sonic, both in his games and in his movepool, and some parts of his fanbase are just sickening to look at. --Timson622222 (talk) 18:00, 29 July 2014 (EDT) Just... Better.--Pichu+Pichu (talk) 02:49, 30 July 2014 (EDT) Both of them are pretty bad in Brawl, but Samus is a far better in my eyes. Except for Other M. Also, I like the Metroid series infinitely more than Sanic the Hegh. ...Except for Other M. Nymbare and his talk 21:27, 30 July 2014 (EDT) C'mon, Nintendo. Bring back the bikini-endings! MeatBall104; Prepare your anus! 10:25, 3 August 2014 (EDT) I would choose a badass bounty hunter over a blue hedgehog any day. N6TJA (talk) 11:03, 3 August 2014 (EDT) See vote no. 2. Plus, Sonic's rather predictable and he really can't KO very well. 23.119.230.43 18:55, 3 August 2014 (EDT) I favor Samus in character. I don't play either of these in Smashes, but I play Metroid more often then Sonic, sooo... Samus. Stan the Man (talk) 13:45, 6 August 2014 (EDT) Dat maneuverability tho. --Torden (talk) 23:57, 6 August 2014 (EDT) Samus has much more combat experience, the armor to survive sonic's speed, as well as the speed boost item that eliminates sonic's biggest advantage. Samus, any day. --ZephyrOmega (talk) 20:19, 20 August 2014 (EDT) Metroid is better. PikaSamus (talk) 13:34, 8 September 2014 (EDT) Samus is a lot more powerful and Ifind her easier to control Zogvquit (talk) 08:12, 17 September 2014 (EDT) I enjoy Samus better. IMO, she's got the better games, is the better character, and is more fun to play than Sonic in Brawl. Beatle (talk) 01:59, 18 September 2014 (EDT) Obvious choice. JamesHeart 17:49, 18 September 2014 (EDT) "SONIC'S THE NAME, SPEED'S MY GAME--" *cue Speed Booster* (yes I know she doesn't use Speed Booster in Smash but whatever) CrazyAl02(talk) 23:54, 30 September 2014 (EDT) Takava (talk) 22:53, 1 October 2014 (EDT) Samus has faced down enormous galactic space monsters and slain pirates, and all sonic has done is save some woodland creatures. Poweron721 (talk) 09:14, 10 October 2014 (EDT) Samus 4 Lyfe :{3 SmashBros (talk) 11:36, 11 October 2014 (EDT) Not even a contest. 162.194.130.200 00:35, 16 October 2014 (EDT) She has more experience. 98.222.6.141 14:53, 19 October 2014 (EDT) More fun to play as Samus, attacks hurts more, doesn't suicide from too much speed (not that good with the recovery tho) Kirbythe Amazing Know my power! 10:56, 23 October 2014 (EDT) Aside from Metroid being a better overall series than Sonic, Samus is my all time favorite character. She's badass, sexy and my hero. And Plus in Smash 4 she's not a clunky piece of garbage like Sonic. Enderwoman (talk) 20:01, 26 October 2014 (EDT) As a Brawl and SSB4 player, Sonic is just way to boring in his design compared to Samus (I mean how many of his moves involve him rolling up into a ball to attack). Samus is just too bad-ass in this game compared to Sonic. Also, Prime is a thing.DungTrio43 (talk) 21:18, 26 October 2014 (EDT) She is easier to play, stronger and overall better. I won many times thanks to Charge Shot. Sonic doesn't have anything like this. 83.6.63.55 07:26, 10 November 2014 (EST) 178.180.158.188 11:06, 22 November 2014 (EST) Samus is a much stronger character than Sonic. User:Unknown5145 16:06, 11 December 2014 (UTC) Half-votes Feel like making a half-vote because Samus is more fun in Smash, but as characters I don't really favor either one. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 11:17, 27 July 2014 (EDT) Half vote cuz I don't care for either, but in appearence, Samus winz! 72.105.73.247 18:00, 8 August 2014 (EDT) Don't really play as either in Brawl, but Samus has a giant laser. Sonicmario22 (talk) 11:21, 18 August 2014 (EDT) Half vote for Samus cause she's very strong other than Sonic, but Sonic is a decent character for me, just not strong enough. Giratina 720 19:12, 30 August 2014 (EDT)			Votes for Sonic Sonic is fast! Speed and agility beat technology anytime. He has more allies than Samus, and he looks cooler.24.95.58.164 14:33, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Sonic doesn't need weapons to fight. He can beat any enemy using his own speed and skill.99.14.210.136 15:28, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Sonic is third party! SeanWheeler (talk) 15:55, 26 July 2014 (EDT) "Yur too slow" ChuckNorris 21:05, 26 July 2014 (EDT) Love playing as him in Brawl Minus. *repeated pummels* YOU'RE TOO SLOW YOU'RE TOO SLOW YOU'RE TOO SLOW YOU'RE TOO SLOW YOU'RE TOO SLOW YOU'RE TOO...

Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 15:11, 27 July 2014 (EDT) Sonic is so awesome, even though hes from another game company, Sonic feels at home in Smash. Not only that, hes Sega's main mascot! Is Samus Nintendo's main mascot?.....-Kaizer24.185.135.102 00:27, 1 August 2014 (EDT) Sonic is awesome, blue and fast. He needs no weapons to fight and I tend to prefer speedier characters. Zwzchow (talk) 11:22, 11 August 2014 (EDT) Sonic is my main in Brawl and Project M. I like Sonic as both a character and a fighter. He has the fastest running speed, a great recovery, and, in Project M, a very satisfying meteor smash. (Plus, I'm a huge fanboy.) --Aqua Shield (talk) 01:19, 13 August 2014 (EDT) picking sonic because that thing on the other side isn't zero suit samus and i'm kinda shit at power suit samus CLI (talk) 15:00, 29 August 2014 (EDT) Closest thing to Big the Cat.

Aidan the Gamer 11:40, 18 November 2014 (EST) ur 2 sloooowww -nintendofan100111 10:11, 21 November 2014 (EST) hes from my favorite game franchise, he's my main in brawl, and, lest we forget, your too slow. The Omega Smasher (talk) 22:36, 22 November 2014 (EST) Sonic is waaay better than Samus. He's faster, stronger, plus, hes like 8 spots ahead of Samus in the tier list. The Master Hand—It's time. 09:20, 12 December 2014 (EST) Yay, 40th vote! Besides, Sonic is way cooler. infernape612 22:47, 12 December 2014 (EST) Half-votes While Samus is/was (depending on the time you read this) the strongest character in the game, Sonic is the speediest, and after they buffed him in SSB4 and Mega Man taking Samus' place, Sonic is better by a landslide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meman1990 (talk • contribs) 07:21, July 27, 2014 (EDT) Sonic is faster than Samus and can transform into Super Sonic.

Samus, while popular with the gaming crowd, is not nearly as iconic or recognizable as the Blue Blur. Sonic's natural speed and strength makes him a much better character than Samus' tech-equipped from head-to-toe gear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.109.29.7 (talk • contribs) 21:46, 11 October 2014 (EDT) He's still waiting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.194.183 (talk • contribs) 20:43, 26 October 2014 (EDT) Trouble keeps you running faster, save the planet from disaster, spinning through a world in motion, take it all the way!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.67.248 (talk • contribs) 17:37, 3 November 2014 (EDT) Sonic has a speed advantage and he's more well known.

I can't vote between them! So putting this here instead (sorry). I love them both!!! Samus is the awesome super-woman with super-armor that saves everyone time and again and some of my favorite games (and my best character), and Sonic is my childhood hero and some of my favorite games (and ties for my 2nd best character). Oh, and since you all insist on forgetting, Samus can run about as fast as Sonic a la Speed Boost, though not in Smash (Wish we could Shinespark in Smash as well). Jarie Suicune (talk) 13:50, 10 September 2014 (EDT) When is dis gonna change? 72.104.148.73 17:01, 25 September 2014 (EDT) This has been here for about 4 months. Please can someone change it? Mesuxelf 19:22, 9 October 2014 (EDT) The wiki is currently in a high red status. To make people focus more on helping the wiki, it won't change until we get back to yellow, which is probably in 6 months. I do agree that it should be changed, though. It's been on for a while. Qwerty (talk) 13:40, 11 October 2014 (EDT) Are votes for this still being accecptedSmashmaster567 (talk) 11:09, 8 November 2014 (EST) This fight is still the current fight, so votes are being accepted at the moment. Rtzxy Reflect!!! 11:55, 8 November 2014 (EST) Wonder how I'm gonna die a "horrible painful death". :p Smash Master 00:39, 23 November 2014 (EST) OK, the wiki is at yellow. Can we please have a new fight? Awesomelink234 PK FLASHBOMB! 20:43, 7 December 2014 (EST) The plan is to up a new fight at the usual time (late Friday/early Saturday). Toomai Glittershine The Irrepressible 20:38, 8 December 2014 (EST) I was wondering. Since now that we have Conquest mode on Smash 4 and the fact that it acts similarly with Smash Arena (and it is perhaps more popular), will Smash Arena still be relevant? Dots (talk) The Ball 22:06, 8 December 2014 (EST) I think they're different enough for this to survive, primarily in that conquests can only have playable characters, whereas Smash Arena can have stages, items, etc. Toomai Glittershine The Multifaceted 22:14, 8 December 2014 (EST) Not to mention bosses (my suggestion is in my talk page). Derpguy 64 (talk) 08:53, 12 December 2014 (EST)Derpguy 64 It's been more than half a year (7 months, to be precise). I honestly don't care who wins, but at a 40 to 42.5 score (with mah boi leading), I think it's fair to say this thing needs to end sometime soon. BlueStreak Speeds By 11:37, 12 December 2014 (EST) The battle went way overtime. How stupid that Sonic won due to making this battle way too long. Pathetic, editors!128.187.97.19 22:04, 16 December 2014 (EST) Says the IP that started editing today and hasn't made any real contributions.

Round 232: Onett vs. Fourside

		Winner!! Fourside 23 to 24
These two masses of buildings are of significantly different population density - and altitude of fighting. One's based on horizontal sections and runaway drivers, the other on vertical shafts and runaway UFOs. Which capitalizes?
Votes for Onett I prefer Onett, mainly because I've never played Fourside. I actually like Magicant best though. XD 72.105.74.179 10:20, 13 December 2014 (EST) Onett is better because Onett. Rtzxy Reflect! 10:26, 13 December 2014 (EST) After almost a 6 month hiatus, we finally get to vote again in a new round on Smash Arena. I can't wait for the three way smash games round because I would love to hear everyone's opinions on the three games (although Melee might win over Brawl this time though. :P). Anyways, I vote for Onett because Pollyanna is my favorite music in the EarthBound franchise. The music and the stage itself reminds me of my life back in California. Dots (talk) The Calvin and Hobbes 10:39, 13 December 2014 (EST) You can't accidentally fall down between buildings here. 'Nuff said. Takava (talk) 16:20, 13 December 2014 (EST) What Takava said. Plus, I like the music in it better, and the fact that it appears in 3 Smash games is more than enough to prove that it is better. :P Tepig (talk) 16:32, 13 December 2014 (EST) I've (sadly) never played Melee, so I'll have to give it to Onett. Als- OH NO THE TAXI RosalinaU (talk) 22:01, 13 December 2014 (EST) You can play Smiles and Tears here in SSB4, not to mention the Onett Winters Theme. 'Nuff said. SSBBNess (talk) 08:47, 14 December 2014 (EST) it has been here since melee. {Psychninja14 (talk) 18:52, 14 December 2014 (EST)} It's appeared in every game. Plus it's harder to die on. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 19:01, 14 December 2014 (EST) Never played melee 106.68.17.161 04:11, 15 December 2014 (EST) @Nutta Butta: Super Smash Bros. says hi. Anyway, I like Onett due to the sign that talks about the black van being driven by "this guy" racing around town. PikaSamus (talk) 11:07, 15 December 2014 (EST) The music is way better, and I just like the overall atmosphere more. ChuckNorris 17:57, 19 December 2014 (EST) 124.187.244.67 01:14, 22 December 2014 (EST) I like the music. (In EB, that is.) Plus it's the first stage in the series, and I just like the location. Darrman (talk) 13:30, 24 December 2014 (EST) I like it for having no lower blast line at all. After all the matches I viewed in the past, it's not like anyone needs a lower blast line for KOs. 67.166.228.195 19:52, 29 December 2014 (EST) I perfer Onett since its the most common returning stage plus I like the stage hazards on it, makes it useful to bari someone then let the cars bump into them. (Smashworker101 (talk) 18:57, 1 January 2015 (EST)) one word: ATMOSPERE!50.32.224.193 21:24, 4 January 2015 (EST) never played melee so... 68.109.75.101 19:08, 6 January 2015 (EST) Watch out for the Black Van! The Iliad (talk) 19:30, 9 January 2015 (EST) Half-votes I think Onett is more classical to EarthBound Series —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.144.159.18 (talk • contribs) 09:48, 13 December 2014 Both maps are pretty tedious, but occasionally fun when you're not taking the game seriously. I guess the Pollyanna arrangement with the secondary soundtrack is the tie breaker for me.--Dinodomain (talk) 02:39, 16 December 2014 (EST) I prefer Onett because I am a wario main and he performs well on this stage:) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.80.93.216 (talk • contribs) 21:31, 19 December 2014 (EST) I love the music and the background... and pretty much everything else. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.188.69.248 (talk • contribs) 13:31, 20 December 2014 (EST) I love this stage, MAH BOI.... the music, the graphics, the colors, everything! Sure, Fourside looks cool and is pretty classic to EarthBound, but Onett is ***COOLER AND MUCH MORE CLASSIC!*** —Preceding unsigned comment added by PK Arby (talk • contribs) 16:31, 21 December 2014 (EST) I've never really liked either of these stages, so I'll put my half-vote here because the music sounds cool.Qwerty (talk) 15:24, 29 December 2014 (EST) I've never played on Fourside, but frankly, compared to the other Earthbound stages, it doesn't seem that interesting. Onett seems more inviting, and just all-around awesome. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.8.126 (talk • contribs) 09:26, 29 December 2014 (EST) I vote for Onett, because I actually like how you are forced to stick to the buildings & trees to avoid the cars. Plus, it has a more fun atmosphere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.68.4.20 (talk • contribs) 18:28, 4 January 2015 (EST)			Votes for Fourside I feel that the cars of Onett force players to avoid/utilize its ground area excessively, changing normal gameplay mechanics. I still like both stages, though; I merely prefer Fourside. Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 00:40, 13 December 2014 (EST) It hasn't refused to go away. RickTommy 02:13, 13 December 2014 (EST) It has a better aesthetic design, as well as being overall less campy(though not by much). I wish it would make a return.71.108.116.197 03:10, 13 December 2014 (EST) This stage doesn't have walk-offs. Awesomelink234 PK FLASHBOMB! 08:06, 13 December 2014 (EST) Though I never played on Fourside, I've seen it in action. It looks better aesthetically. Here's to hoping it comes back! Berrenta (talk) 10:32, 13 December 2014 (EST) Foursode is less annoying (dang cars) more interesting visually and just more fun overallThe Omega Smasher (talk) 19:01, 13 December 2014 (EST) I prefer stages that aren't walk-off. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 21:33, 13 December 2014 (EST) I personally find Onett to be a rather annoying stage due to the cars, and the overall cramped space. I don't have much to say about Fourside, but I do find it better. MeatBall104; Going :|O around the clock! 12:28, 14 December 2014 (EST) I've never really liked any of the EarthBound stages in the Smash series (with the exception of this one). In all honesty, however, I'd choose Fourside over the others in an instant. BlueStreak Speeds By 12:57, 14 December 2014 (EST) I was going to say exactly what FaLo said o3o DoctorPain99 19:19, 14 December 2014 (EST) Onett is a frustrating, campy, cramped stage that was never fun for me to play on, even back in my younger days. Fourside has a pretty interesting geometry and isn't a walk-off. I don't get why Onett keeps getting brought back. --Timson622222 (talk) 19:21, 14 December 2014 (EST) Fourside is a lot more fun to play on, and the scenery is slightly more pleasing. Onett can be annoying at times, especially when you're trying to maintain your ground in between the houses. There are also those overhangs actually being able to block jumps in Brawl, which makes escaping infinite jabs and chain throws just about impossible. Blue Ninjakoopa 05:45, 15 December 2014 (EST) Onett is way too cramped. Not very suitable for battle. This is probably the best Earthbound stage in my opinion, excluding Magicant. SmashBros (talk) 10:55, 15 December 2014 (EST) Bigger, no hazards, better for competitive play (which Melee was focused on a little), and just better overall.

Smash Master 08:04, 17 December 2014 (EST) I never really liked Onett for the sheer fact of it being brought back two too many times than I cared for, and the stage was pretty lackluster, with the cars being the only thing that saves it from being forgotten for me. Fourside, however was a stage that, despite its size, was fun to play on no matter when. Except for that event, Space travelers. AtomicGameAndWatch (talk) 17:36, 17 December 2014 (EST) I like Fourside, and I would have liked to see it as a familiar stage in Brawl. Mainly because it has so many camping spots. >:D The Arnge I'm no rubble monkey! 13:41, 18 December 2014 (EST) I've only ever seen this in fan games (Super Smash Flash 2), but I really like the design and lack of cars.

Both are very frustrating for different reasons. Onett has walk-off KOs and powerful stage hazards, as well as a layout that can lead to Up-Smash/tilt camping. Fourside has narrow holes (making it especially frustrating for its sole character; Ness), a spaceship platform that's obviously been waxed, and a layout and length that promotes all types of camping. For their good traits, there are many. Onett for example, has a good lay-out for 6-8 player smashes (one of the best in the game imo), good music, and just a fun atmosphere. But, I'm voting for Fourside because it has BETTER music, a real cool atmosphere (think Saphron City, but larger, more realistic and at night with aliens), would've been a great 8-player smash stage, and it has aliens, dammit! How cool is that? However, considering all things, I can only bring myself to give Fourside a half vote, as Onett gets a very close second in my book.

Round 233: Negative Zone vs. Peach Blossom

		Winner!! Negative Zone 29.5 to 8
Rather than direct damage, these two Final Smashes focus on status shenanigans. Which overwhelms the other?
Votes for Negative Zone This Final Smash is just ridiculous in every way, and I'm sad they changed it in SSB4. 173.62.160.215 10:34, 27 January 2015 (EST) Lol. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 12:09, 10 January 2015 (EST) Man, this trophy is just plain weird. :/ Dots (talk) The Heavy Weapons Guy 12:12, 10 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone is the best.

Laikue (talk | contribs) 15:00, 10 January 2015 (EST) This is pretty great. Imagine being able to do this in everyday life, like when you're stuck in a line, trapped in a crowd, trying to kidnap someone, or being kidnapped yourself. Also, this section was at the top. Littlesquirtle! I choose you! 19:08, 10 January 2015 (EST) Luigi Power 4ever. (Psychninja14 (talk) 11:55, 11 January 2015 (EST)) In my opinion this is just a one-sided battle. This one is more affective, despite the fact that it has a set range, this one affects people even in mid-air, whereas Peach's Blossoms are relatively easy to avoid, and if you do avoid it (which any experienced smash player will) then you can steal her peaches. 72.105.76.48 13:22, 11 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone! Negative Zone! Igor the Mii (talk) 16:39, 11 January 2015 (EST) Peach Blossom sucks. AW402 (talk) 17:22, 11 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone can actually change the course of the game. Definitely one of the better Final Smashes. What can Peach Blossom do? Put you to sleep. Nuff said. BlueStreak Speeds By 23:09, 11 January 2015 (EST) I find the metaphor of Negative Zone to be quite interesting. Luigi has forever lived in the shadow of his brother, Mario, putting him in a depressed state. Mario has been featured in countless eponymous games while Luigi has had few, if any. I see Negative Zone as a physical manifestation of Luigi's sadness. Because Luigi's sadness is so vast and expansive, his Final Smash actually imposes his own pain and misery unto his opponents, for no one would willingly desire to suffer the effects of Negative Zone. The physical damage that the Final Smash deals to competitors is similar to the emotional horrors that plague Luigi every day of his miserable, wretched "life". He is so constantly overflowing with pain and depression that his negative feelings and emotions spill over onto his opponents upon successfully trapping them in Negative Zone. All that Peach's Peach Blossom does is grow some fruit and bore her opponents to sleep. Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 23:25, 12 January 2015 (EST) Weegee! Weegee! Weegee! UltraSmasher402 (talk) 22:22, 13 January 2015 (EST) This explains Luigi's hatred of being Player 2 a lot more. Also I think this has more good effects than Peach Blossom. --EpiNa8 23:08, 13 January 2015 (EST) I was rather sad about the removal of this Final Smash. ChuckNorris 20:27, 15 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone is better overall. It is a little bit disappointing that Luigi's Final Smash was changed, but the Poltergust 5000 is also great. LimitCrown (talk) 22:18, 15 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone+Fire Jump Punch=Instant KOAwesomelink234 PK FLASHBOMB! 08:09, 16 January 2015 (EST) Man, it really is the best. 69.242.137.135 09:54, 17 January 2015 (EST) This won me a lot of casual matches, mostly because it never occurs to anyone that Luigi has never been about damage. He's about frustration. And this is the most frustrating final smash aside from Kirby's stage-spanning pot. Also, yeah, the gaining dark powers from living in Mario's shadow is a nice touch.WaveMotionSmash (talk) 10:43, 19 January 2015 (EST) I like this better. Smash Master 13:40, 19 January 2015 (EST) Negative Zone was one of the top 5 Final Smashes in Brawl in my opinion, as it nearly guaranteed you a KO if you were anywhere near the opponent. Peach Blossom was one of my most hated Final Smashes, however, as I figured it was useless since enemies can air/ledge camp with nothing but a slap on the wrist for the entire duration of the move, and they could just heal afterward with the peaches. I obviously don't think Peach Blossom is that bad now, but my vote's going to my favorite Final Smash when I was a casual player. --Timson622222 (talk) 00:23, 21 January 2015 (EST) I was hoping this was going to be a Negative Zone vs. Poltergust 5000 fight, I'm really curious which Final Smash people would prefer. Toast ltimatum 03:36, 21 January 2015 (EST) Look at my username. Plus, Luigi is way, way, way better than Peach. No offense. Weegee Number 1! (talk) 21:15, 21 January 2015 (EST) My favorite part is using his Up B on sleeping or tripped opponents, and it's good to have the Flower effect on the side. It also has nice visual effects. I also appreciate the meaning behind it and Luigi's personality that Everyman or Nobody pointed out. Peach Blossom is helpful (even more so in SSB4), but boring in comparison. Nas160 Let's go Pens! 16:48, 23 January 2015 (EST) Peach Blossom can't put to sleep opponents that aren't on ground, and because of that I always dodge it and steal peaches. Plus, I like Negative Zone more than peach-growing lullaby. 83.24.230.217 13:53, 24 January 2015 (EST) Peach Blossom is not that good of a final smash. Personally, I like Poltergeist 5000, but Negative Zone is great too. User:Thestrategyman 9:37, 27 January 2015 Weird is good... right?

Round 234: Sing vs. Rest

		Winner!! Rest 6 to 26.5
Two moves that harness the power of drowziness to do completely different things - which snoozes the other?
Votes for Sing I Believe rest is useless, but sing can actually do something, put the opponent to sleep and SMASH ATTACK them. But you will have to get the enemy to high damage first though162.72.179.253 16:25, 12 February 2015 (EST) If I had to pick between leaving MYSELF vulnerable, or leaving SOMEONE ELSE vulnerable?

These are my reasons. Toast ltimatum 13:23, 31 January 2015 (EST) After school, Rest (naping) is pretty much what I do. I do not like how you have to wake up in the crack-a-dong every 6:30 on the weekdays to get ready for high school which starts at 7:30. Therefore I take a nap before I do homework after school so I can catch up on my sleep. Speaking of Sing, having to hear people sing "Let it go" millions of times just gets on my nerves.

Like Yoshi, Jigglypuff lacks any useful vertical recovery ability, other than jumping prowess. Rarely, if ever, are down special moves used for returning to the stage; conversely, up special moves pretty much always are.
