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.

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. 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.
  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). Extra spacing results in the list numbers becoming disjointed.
  10. 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.
  11. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.
  12. 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.

Round 123: Lugia vs. Ho-oh

Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
Ho-oh Brawl.jpg
The legendary residents of the Tin Tower and the Brass Tower do battle. Both are amongst the rarest and most damaging Pokémon in Melee and Brawl, attacking from the background to devastating effect. Will the aurum or the argentum triumph?

Winner!!
Lakitu

17 to 12.5
HammerBroAssist.jpg
The two classic extremely-annoying enemies from the Mushroom Universe, both throwing projectiles with unusual properties that could only be avoided. Will the flying Spiny-droppers or the pairs of hammer-tossers come out on top?

Votes for Lakitu

  1. Following Mario a whole level throwing spiky things on a cloud is cool, and selfdiscipline.86.82.234.185 03:12, 21 January 2012 (EST)

  15. You can kill hammer bro by simply tossing a fire ball, but Lakitu flies on a cloud making it hard to kill him!207.236.90.177 10:09, 23 January 2012 (EST)

  1. Lakitu is the Mascot of mario kart, and became a playable character as of mario kart 7, he also has his own minions, and NEVER. STOPS. CHASING YOU. What does Hammerbro have? He was playable in mario baseball (big whoop) He stays in one place throwing easy to doge hammers, and he's bald (LAKITU TOTALLY HAS HAIR, in the newer games) Now comparing these facts, Hammerbro is clearly the wrong choice. While Lakitu deserves $400,000 Dollars (or coins, whichever works)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.226.89.32 (talkcontribs) 17:25, 23 January 2012
  2. Lakitu is a bit more awesome, what with his flying cloud (and, at times such as in Super Mario 64, his nifty fishing-pole camera). He even helps to start off races in the Mario Kart series and fish out racers who have gone astray from the racetrack! And his Assist Trophy effect is a bit more helpful than that of the Hammer Bros. (whose hammers hardly pack a punch), who also manage to become annoying in the Subspace Emissary mode of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.3.33.22 (talkcontribs) 14:38, 27 January 2012 (EST)

Votes for Hammer Bros.

  1. Hammer Bro has never been playable in Mario Kart why? Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 05:26, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  2. You can escape Lakitu pretty easily just by running away, Hammer Bros on the other hand actually make it difficult to progress. That and Hammer Bros are my favourite Mario series enemy. 110.174.90.69 06:36, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  3. Hammer Bro has his own weapons! Lakitu throws other enemies!141.0.8.155 06:50, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  4. STOP. Hammertime! --- ReiDemon, Author Extraordinaire, 11:40, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  5. Purely awesome! Yoshirocks341 YoshiHeadSSBB.png 15:01, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  6. Lakitu, you think you're the best fisherman ever, don't you? 123JamesHeart PatheticStickFigure.jpg 16:16, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  7. Lakitu is annoying. --Fireemblemlogo.pngFan275 17:09, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  8. They are easier to stomp and have amusing voices. They also come in three forms (relatively). Don't mess with a Fire Bro. LightningBlue: Electric!LuigiHeadSSBB.png 17:31, 21 January 2012 (EST)
  9. Screw the air camper. --HavocReaper48 19:13, 22 January 2012 (EST)
  10. These guys kill me so many times. But I still love them. Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! BowserHeadSSBM.png 11:23, 23 January 2012 (EST)
  11. They inspired the greatest Mario suit to have ever existed. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 13:49, 25 January 2012 (EST)
