We have never seen any character get harmed by his addition to Super Smash Bros. There is no precedent for it. If you want to theorize about it and make picks based on it, by all means go ahead. I just don't think it's really likely at all. Especially when Cloud is one of the higher-tier, newbie friendly characters in the game.

Wait until the FF7R devs finally show off Wall Market and Cloudette starts taking off. Not_Wylvane |

Could Bayonetta be harmed by Smash? I hear she's pretty hated in there. |
Every time i see Bayonetta on anything Smash related she gets booed. |
SuperNiceDog posted... It actually reminded me a lot of how people were SO hyped for Brawl in the late 2007-early 2008 period, then when the game finally released in mid-2008, it did not meet expectations. Did it also remind you of how Brawl beat Melee in the Game if the decade contest? All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Could Bayonetta be harmed by Smash? I hear she's pretty hated in there. This is the ONLY thing I considered. Bayonetta is hated by most of the Smash community on levels that even Meta Knight didn't get. She's in a debatable match, too.

Melee won the war and I was eventually proven right on it. The community hates Brawl now, while Melee has the staying power. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6235-which-is-best-all-time-super-smash-bros-game GOTD was as pyrrhic as it gets.

All
I'm saying is, if Brawl can beat Melee, I don't think any Smash thing
can be perceived negatively on GameFAQs. Cloud's more like to boost
above Mario and Snake because of Smash 4 than fall because of it. All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. |
UltimaterializerX posted... Melee won the war and I was eventually proven right on it. The community hates Brawl now, while Melee has the staying power. Tell that to my GoTD bracket. -_- "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
Nothing is more telling to me about Brawl than at the conventions I go to. Smash 4, Melee, and 64, you have an incredibly tough time sitting down and getting to play it because of how popular they are and how packed it gets around those consoles. Brawl though? You can sit and play for hours uninterrupted. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
Snake being back for Ultimate probably gives him a bigger boost than anyone. |
ExThaNemesis posted... Nothing is more telling to me about Brawl than at the conventions I go to. We've probably both gone to those together without even knowing it. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
UltimaterializerX posted... We've probably both gone to those together without even knowing it. DC area for the ones I go to (MAGfest and Otakon). Do you notice the same thing though? Brawl's sections are EMPTY usually. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
Yep.
I called it within a week of Brawl coming out. The game was trash and
though it took awhile, the community came to my side. Melee won. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Well, I don't know about the Smash fanbase in general, but at least in the Smash Ultimate board, Brawl still beats Melee to this day: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/76411845 Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
ExThaNemesis posted... UltimaterializerX posted...We've probably both gone to those together without even knowing it. I've been to Otakon, MagFest, also KatsuCon(same place as Mag). In the game rooms I very rarely see people playing Brawl. Raytan wins! |
UltimaterializerX posted... Yep. I called it within a week of Brawl coming out. The game was trash and though it took awhile, the community came to my side. Melee won. Listen, I had a lot of fun and some great gaming memories with Brawl. Like, that first week on board 8, if you didn't enjoy that time duking it out with other B8ers every night then you just don't have a soul. I think what drags Brawl down so much for me is the disappointment at what it could have been. And the fact that the hype FAR exceeded the expectation in the end. Also, Brawl came out eleven f***ing years ago and Nintendo still doesn't understand how to do online gaming properly. They don't get enough flack for this tbh "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
SuperNiceDog posted... I've been to Otakon, MagFest, also KatsuCon(same place as Mag). BRUH! We need to hang out at MAGfest. There are a few other Board 8ers who go and we usually party together. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
ExThaNemesis posted... SuperNiceDog posted...I've been to Otakon, MagFest, also KatsuCon(same place as Mag). Oh yea that would be fun. I haven't been to Magfest since 2015 though, no plan to go in 2019. The con I REALLY love is KatsuCon in Feb. That's less about gaming though. I'll let you know if I change my mind about Magfest 2019. Raytan wins! |
I
could tell within literally 2 hours that Brawl was trash. Sorry, but I
have standards. That non hitstun, camping, 'can't pick what direction I
air dodge but I get infinite air dodge' trash was dumb. Then the Subspace Emissary happened. f***ing hell. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
You didn't even mention tripping. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
ExThaNemesis posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Could Bayonetta be harmed by Smash? I hear she's pretty hated in there. Let's do it. I need more upsets. |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Let's do it. I need more upsets. I think we're going to absolutely demolish the casuals on this one. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
ExThaNemesis posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Let's do it. I need more upsets. I'm not taking Sans to the end of the world if that's what you're wondering. I'm having him lose to Geralt now. |
My stance on rallies is to pretend they don't exist. |
I didn't trip in my first two hours of playing. Seriously. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Advokaiser posted... Well, I don't know about the Smash fanbase in general, but at least in the Smash Ultimate board, Brawl still beats Melee to this day: Oh, by the way, I don't think it's just Melee purists represented in that poll. Melee would beat Brawl 1v1 in another contest no doubt, but there's actually a good chunk of Smash players that started with Brawl (so in case you're wondering, yes, there's some nostalgia factor behind Brawl, just not as big in GameFAQs because of its age demographics). The Subspace Emissary is partially why it is still held high among Smash players. Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
2013's
Pokemon performances cannot be proven to be a fraud. After all, if
Pokemon's performance is worse this contest, a whopping five years
later, it could simply be that Pokemon has weakened. Mewtwo, however, could still be proven beyond a reasonable doubt to be a "fraud" if Mewtwo turns out to be weaker than Pikachu this contest. I suppose. I mean, there's no reason for them to swap positions in the Pokemon hiearchy, right? (in other words, that would mean Mewtwo's second place in the MM/Pika/M2 match was a fluke) "Ah,
a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is
a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
you know earlier tonight this popped in my head - Falcon has a beastly early vote, and Sephiroth's is pathetic and then some - Falcon got close to Cloud in 2010 at the start but not enough to make Cloud threatened at all, Cloud was stronger then (so was Sephiroth!), and a night match iirc - The board vote is basically twice as effective now, making it that much more likely Falcon is beating or is terrifyingly close to Sephiroth at the start - Vivi > Mario in 2013, a very low vote totals contest, had Vivi scarily close to Mario at the start and never left him alone, despite Vivi normally being much weaker than Mario, partially due to people noticing how close the very start was - We're starting matches with a lot more Americans awake this year - We have terrible vote totals and Falcon has more rally material than Sephiroth does with Smash communities tl;dr if Falcon has like 49% on Sephiroth at the freeze, can we really trust Seph to keep Falcon away from him Born to lose, live to win! |
Haste_2 posted... 2013's Pokemon performances cannot be proven to be a fraud. I mean Charizard was proven to be a fraud three years later why not five |
I'm having second thoughts on my Master Hand > Noctis pick. f***. Dilated Chemist |
Because going even with a noble nine character is such a fraud performance. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |

LeonhartFour posted... Haste_2 posted...2013's Pokemon performances cannot be proven to be a fraud. We know Charizard was a fraud because Pokemon in general increased over the three year period, but not Charizard. For a set of characters as a whole... we just can't prove something like that so easily. "Ah,
a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is
a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
I don't know why I keep expecting anything out of you I guess so I don't feel like I've been wasting my time for over a decade but I guess I have |
You
do get that outsiders read posts exactly like yours and ExTha's and
decide to rally to spite your mentality, yes? How you haven't figured
this out by now is beyond me. ExTha was even literally quoted by
Undertale fans half a dozen times in 2015 and they just laughed at him. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Haste_2 posted... We know Charizard was a fraud because Pokemon in general increased over the three year period, but not Charizard. It's actually very possible Charizard DID increase. He was just so incredibly overrated by the board that it looked like he didn't. It's the kind of thing that masked Magus's fraudulence because Ganondorf boosted in 2004 (and Tidus/Shadow seeming to validate their 2003 rankings did it too) |
Link lost in 2003 guys. FRAUD. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
UltimaterializerX posted... You do get that outsiders read posts exactly like yours and ExTha's and decide to rally to spite your mentality, yes? then they're wasting their time too |
LeonhartFour posted... Haste_2 posted...We know Charizard was a fraud because Pokemon in general increased over the three year period, but not Charizard. Yes, you're right that Charizard did (likely) increase. But he didn't relative to his performance against Bowser/Mario, which was my point. "Ah,
a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is
a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
well because those were blatant overperformances that I thought everyone recognized at the time then everyone thought he was a Noble Nine breaker in 2013 I thought everyone would see the same thing about Mewtwo and now people think he's a Noble Nine breaker history repeats itself |
