Lucina SSB4.png
 Winner!!
Roy

5.5 to 16

Throw-in bonus characters cloned from Marth, but with a very different goal: one unleashes t3h ph1r3 with hilt sweetspots, while the other doesn't care for precision and prefers simplicity. Which one comes out on top?

Votes for Lucina

  1. Galeforce is all you need. Miles (talk) 23:26, 19 May 2017 (EDT)
  2. Meh PoultrysigSSB4.pngPoultryPoultrysigSSBM.png(talk) the God-Slayer 09:57, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  3. This is a no-brainer for me... MetaKingSignature1.png20MK_MetaKing #20MKMetaKingSignature2.png 21:44, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
  4. Not a single question in my entire life has been easier to answer. Drill Blaster Mark 2 (talk) 04:25, 23 May 2017 (EDT)
  5. I always found that the extra strain of having to be at close range for Roy was a major downside. It basically gives him the worst range for any sword fighter. Also Lucina is a waifu. Alex Parpotta (talk) 17:10, 24 May 2017 (EDT)

  1. This is too easy for me. Lucina Rocks!!!!! -Mapword —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mapword (talk • contribs) 17:08, 24 May 2017 (EDT)

Votes for Roy

  1. Roy is less of a clone than Lucina is. Searingjet (talk) 22:20, 19 May 2017 (EDT)
  2. ROY'S OUR BOY AidanzapunkSig1.pngAidan, the Wandering Dragon WarriorAidanzapunkSig2.png 23:02, 19 May 2017 (EDT)
  3. There are many good reasons to vote for Roy over Lucina.
    1. He's less of a clone, with mechanics and aesthetics that separate him further from Marth than Lucina.
    2. GBA Fire Emblem > Modern Fire Emblem.
    3. He should have been on the roster from the start, as one of the three clones. This would have opened up DLC development time for Wolf.
    4. He's a fan favorite (our boy), he helped introduce Fire Emblem to international audiences alongside Marth, making him imo the second-most important Fire Emblem character with only Ike challenging that claim, and of course, Roy has t3h ph1r3.

  4. *insert generic and overused comment about Roy being my boy here* Disaster Flare Disaster Flare signature image.png (talk) 23:45, 19 May 2017 (EDT)
  5. I hate sounding like bias, but you already know my answer. Also where's Ragnarok when you need him? lol --BeepYouSignature.png Beep (talk) 00:17, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  6. Roy fits a niche that I don't see many other characters cover: he is a good transition character between swordfighters and brawlers. Roy has the tools of a spacing character, but he doesn't want to space for the entire game unlike Marth and Lucina. He wants to safely close in and land a grab, akin to most brawlers in this game, and his combined combo and tech chase game are some of the best a Smash 4 swordfighter could ask for. b2jammer (talk) 10:10, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  7. Roy 4ever! Even better than Marth!Rimigafob (talk) 11:47, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  8. Sure, they're both clones of Marth, but Roy is our boy. (Roy also doesn't have blue hair like Marth) Awesomelink234 Getting down to editing~ 12:06, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  9. Lucina is just Marth without the thing that makes Marth interesting. Zyrac sig.png Zyrac(talk•contribs) 12:21, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  10. Another no-brainer in my opinion. Better if it had been Ike vs. Roy. 034.png DracoRexKing, Creator of the Land 13:00, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  11. Roy's our boy! He is a great Fire Emblem combatant in Melee and I like him! Dragonfirebreath25 (talk) 13:22, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
  12. Roy is much more different than Marth, so I prefer him over Lucina. Also he keeps the original netural B in Smash 4, so that's a plus. --Vinc420 (talk) 00:20, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
  13. Because of the fire and also because FE Heroes makes him look cooler, plus introduced me to a ton of FE characters because of FE Heroes, so yeah. PikachuMS.pngPika Just got Pokemon Alpha Sapphire! 19:14, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
  14. Okay, I know that some people, including Fire Emblem fans themselves, call Roy a little shit but he, along with Marth of course, helped popularized the series to North America and I don't see why hating fans don't respect that. MHStarCraft Mega Man X SNES sprite.png 19:16, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
  15. Roy's hilt sweetspot mechanic is a quality unique to him as a character. Lucina's sword is functionally identical to all of the other swords in the SSB series. Combos are possible with both characters, but Roy's weapon stands out from the rest. Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 19:31, 23 May 2017 (EDT)
  16. I love cracking a cold one with our boy. ChuckNorris24.png 20:58, 26 May 2017 (EDT)

Round 242: Gamer vs. Shadow Moses Island

 Winner!!
Shadow Moses Island

6 to 9

Stealth is the deal with these two stages, though with very different results: a harmless "!" or a violent ejection. Which nighttime excursion finds the victory?

Votes for Gamer

  1. Both stages do a great job of representing their source material aesthetically, but Gamer's more fun from a gameplay perspective. Those side walls on Shadow Moses are just annoying in practice. Miles (talk) 12:58, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  2. Much more fun than SMI. Also SMI kinda forces you to do vertical KOs, which gets annoying. --Vinc (talk) 17:37, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  3. One of the best-designed stages in Smash. Zyrac sig.png Zyrac(talk•contribs) 17:49, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  4. Unlike Shadow Moses Island, this is actually a stealthy stage. It's really fun perfect shielding the Mom with Jigglypuff. Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ KirbysCrazyAppetiteSig.png 18:12, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  5. Much easier to fight on, and 5-Volt is actually fun instead of just annoying. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 22:27, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  6. The stage appears different each time. ZeldaStarfoxfan2164 (talk) is a never lover boy 10:55, 28 May 2017 (EDT)

Votes for Shadow Moses Island

  1. I like the REX/RAY in the background PoultrysigSSB4.pngPoultryPoultrysigSSBM.png(talk) the God-Slayer 12:26, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  2. Codec Conversations. Searingjet (talk) 13:04, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  3. Mei Ling, Samus took her clothes off!!!Alex Parpotta (talk) 15:52, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  4. One of my favorite casual stages in Brawl. It's got a great design that is unique in the Smash series (I actually like the walls lol), and good music (Calling to the Night is hardly fight-worthy, but it is easily top 5 in terms of Brawl's soundtrack). Snake's Codec Conversations are great. To be fair, Gamer is a decent stage in its own right (Ruins (Wario Land: Shake It!) is a good song), but I dislike the wonky camera angles and prefer the more realistic Metal Gear stage. John John3637881 Signature.png HUAH! 18:01, 27 May 2017 (EDT)
  5. Codec conversations. Nuff said. AidanzapunkSig1.pngAidan, the Wandering Dragon WarriorAidanzapunkSig2.png 14:31, 28 May 2017 (EDT)
  6. What John and Aidan said. --BeepYouSignature.png Beep (talk) 01:12, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
  7. Metal Gear fan reporting. Plus Codec Conversations. Don't gotta say anything else. RagnarokSignature.png Ragnarok320, The Toa of Fire (talk) 11:52, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
  8. Shadow Moses Island's Codec conversations make it stand out from most of the other stages in Brawl, a trait certainly absent in Gamer. Gamer offers one stage hazard; besides that, it is as usual a stage as any one else. SMI is simply more appealing to me. Everyman Or Nobody? (talk) 13:32, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
  9. A great stage with Codec Conversions! Mei Ling and Otacon are part of it! Dragonfirebreath25 (talk) 17:57, 29 May 2017 (EDT)
