SmashArena.png

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", or the combatant with the most fans - 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! Though new requests for fights can no longer be made, voting on already existing requests can be done 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. If you put your vote in the half-votes section without stating reasons why you want it there, it is worth zero and may be deleted by any user. You may replace it later should you do it correctly.

Round 154: Hero's Bow vs. Palutena's Arrow

Winner!!
undecided

Two moves which involve shooting arrows at people - one of them physical shafts of wood and flint, the other curved beams of energy. Which pointy projectile's aim is truer?

Votes for Hero's Bow

  1. I don't play as either one of these two to be any sort of familiar with their bows, but I do play the Zelda games, so... JamesHeart123 02:24, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

  3. I just feel some kind of link with the user of this. DragonMistress (talk) 04:38, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  4. All the arrows point in this direction, and as a Toon Link main, I know how useful it is to jam it in someone's face. Bow chicka wow wow? Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 07:49, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

  8. It's more accurate. The Awesome 12:10, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  9. Because Link's pose is far cooler than Pit's. --- ReiDemon, Author Extraordinaire, 22:01, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  10. I prefer being able to hold the fully charged arrow as long as I like. You can do that with Link, but with Pit it eventually fires. 110.174.90.69 02:33, 9 September 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Palutena's Arrow

  1. Controllable trajectory. 204.191.136.245 00:02, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  2. The payoff of this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXpSaprgAYg&feature=endscreen&NR=1 That is all. Toadat9021doh (talk) 00:57, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

  6. Because it's made of a light... energy... thing. Air Conditioner AC.png READ SW:NOT, EVERYONE 08:44, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

  8. Not affected by gravity and it goes faster. Bandit 10:56, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  9. Better? FishPlay Spiked Pichu.png 18:55, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  10. Palutena's Arrow is superior in everyway with its shots always going straight, its shots are also faster, and that you can aim any direction with controllable trajestory. The only edge that it doesn't have is that it can be absorbed by Oil Panic and PK Magnet. :P Other than that, its better. Dots The Bomb NintenNESsprite.png 21:41, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  11. Doesn't require charge-up time, faster attack, actually campable with, and controllable trajectory. Naked Snake 200px-Naked Snake.jpg 22:59, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
  12. Prepare to meet the light! 71.199.149.250 23:27, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

  15. I like Pit. =3 67.173.145.76 16:51, 14 September 2012 (EDT)
  16. As much as I love Link and the Hero's Bow (its SSB Brawl portrayal doesn't do it enough justice in my opinion; The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is where it truly shines), I'll have to go with Pit and Palutena's Bow and Arrow. A beautiful arrow animation with arrows made to strike foes with bundles of blue light...simply amazing. Additionally, these arrows of light have more freedom of movement. Furthermore, I love the idea of Pit's bow splitting into two short swords on the fly for [Dual Wielding] purposes, able to be combined again at a second's notice - excellent execution of manifesting the [Bow And Sword In Accord] trope within a single weapon; whoever came up with that mechanic for Pit's fighting style deserves a medal. Finally, [the Arrow Looping/Rain technique(s) say hi!] Fenyx4 (talk) 19:45, 14 September 2012 (EDT)

  1. I mean your are shooting LIGHT at youre opponents the only thing that could be better than that would be like shooting the entire sun at your opponent plus you can (sort of) change the trajectory. What isn't good about it! One last thing is the fact that if your enemies try to hide from Pit he can and will shoot with again LIGHT which is EVERYWHERE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PengyPenguin (talkcontribs) 19:39, 2012 September 13‎

I think it would have been nice if Zelda/Sheik's Light Arrow technique were included in this match, despite being a Final Smash. Fenyx4 (talk) 19:45, 14 September 2012 (EDT)

Round 153: Mew vs. Celebi vs. Jirachi

Winner!!
Mew
Mewbrawl.jpg

15.5 to 10 to 9
Fresh off a previous legendary 3-way, here's another featuring the pixies with 100's across the board. Will the genetic anomaly, time-traveling fairy, or Luma-like traveller rise up?

Votes for Mew

  1. Bandit 14:15, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  2. He appears the most out of the three for me, which is convient, and maybe he could be the ancestor of every Pokemon.Toadat9021doh (talk) 14:25, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  3. Fourth Favorite behind Pikachu, Charizard, and Mewtwo. Also, Mew was able to get into Ubers in the past four generations while comparing to Celebi who was only uber in Gen II and Jirachi was never a uber. Dots The Bomb NintenNESsprite.png 15:17, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  4. While I love all three of these Pokémon I'm going to have to vote for Mew. I just like him best for some reason. Maybe it's because he's just so darn cute. ChuckNorris24.png 15:41, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  5. DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} 17:58, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  6. Drops a CD. Krazy4Krash (talk) 18:46, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  7. I'm an old-school kind of guy. Mr. AnonAnon.pngtalk 20:02, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  8. Reason for Mewtwo. ShupaRoehTypicalGuy.png 20:07, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  9. I don't know or care much about the Pokemon series, but Mewtwo is pretty awesome so Mew gets my vote. Naked Snake 200px-Naked Snake.jpg 23:40, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  10. Mew is a classic Pokemon, plus I prefer CD drops. 110.174.90.69 03:01, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  11. He's just like Mewtwo!! The Awesome 11:55, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  12. I don't like Pokemon, so I', gonna pick this guy cause he's in Melee. (I don't have Brawl yet) Supersmash4 (talk) 13:24, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  13. It is cute. <3 LightningBlue405MS.png 22:02, 3 September 2012 (EDT)
  14. It must win. ChaosMew161 (talk) 18:27, 7 September 2012 (EDT)
  15. One of the most notable legendary Pokémon, and a plethora of rumors and glitches shroud it in mystery and intrigue. Plus, it holds the DNA of every single Pokémon and its own DNA gives rise to one of the coolest and most powerful legendary Pokémon in existence, Mewtwo. Also, its leitmotif in the first Pokémon movie, Mewtwo Strikes Back, is just so beautiful. Mew edges out Jirachi (which has a wonderful design, ability, and signature move in its own right) and Celebi for me. Fenyx4 (talk) 21:38, 7 September 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Celebi

  1. Cute :3--Wolfsig.png PSIWolf The one and only! 13:38, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  2. Just to tie things up. 137.186.192.107 15:08, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  3. Because Gen II. --- ReiDemon, Author Extraordinaire, 15:50, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  4. Always had a liking for Celebi. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 16:24, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  5. It has an important role in the Pokémon games (guardian of the forest in Gold, and heart-purifier in Colosseum). JamesHeartless 19:28, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  6. Johto!The Cheese The Cheese.png 22:43, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  7. I like grass types the most.DragonMistress (talk) 04:10, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  8. Christmas time comes early when it leaves behind trophies. Heh! 71.199.149.250 14:55, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  9. Johto. Generation II. Those are my reasons. 67.173.145.76 19:20, 4 September 2012 (EDT)
  10. After unlocking all the stages and getting 5000 KO's, it's worth it to throw a lot of Poké Balls until Celebi appears, seeing as you get three things for its appearance: a bonus, a notice, and a trophy. RickTommy (talk) 22:13, 7 September 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Jirachi

  1. From Gen III, my main series introduction to Pokémon. :D Air Conditioner File:Accoolx.png 13:46, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  2. The star of the second best Pokémon movie (behind Manaphy), and my second favourite legendary in general (behind Phione). Also, after I'd gotten all the CD's and random trophies, Jirachi was the only useful Pokémon. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 14:01, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  3. Jirachi is useful in OU competitive battling in Pokemon, while Mew is overpowered and Celebi... eh. Shoot me for bad logic. 24.168.110.115 20:08, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
  4. Stickers everywhere! 204.191.136.245 01:07, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  5. FishPlay Spiked Pichu.png 12:25, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  6. My favorite out of the three. Shanderu MiniGhost.png 13:09, 2 September 2012 (EDT)
  7. Doom Desire. Great typing. And those great blue dangly things. Davsto (talk) 08:31, 3 September 2012 (EDT)
  8. Grants wishes. 142.244.175.210 17:19, 5 September 2012 (EDT)
  9. Since it's arguably the least common of the three.--71.160.215.6 22:10, 5 September 2012 (EDT)

I think this battle would have been better if Jirachi was in it. ChuckNorris24.png 15:41, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

...You're kidding, right? Air Conditioner File:Accoolx.png 16:18, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
Oh crap, I meant Manaphy. Sorry for the confusion. ChuckNorris24.png 16:53, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
Yeah, I think Manaphy should be included. It's a "baby legendary" just like Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi, the only difference being that it isn't part psychic-type. They all have base 100 stats, too. But then again, Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi only drop items while Manaphy uses a move that affects the players. Blue Ninjakoopa(Talk) 17:45, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
I agree; it would have been nice to see Manaphy face off against Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi in this fight... Fenyx4 (talk) 21:38, 7 September 2012 (EDT)
