So, a week in, I still can't beat 4 star and many 3 star spirits. Grr.

How are you guys getting on with controllers? Preferring Pro or GCN? I actually bought myself one of those PowerA GCN controllers with a USB cable instead of GCN connector (why oh why do the official ones not do this?). Not bad quality. The cable is GROSS though.....stiffest PVC jacket I've ever seen. Cheap stuff. Controller's too light, but the buttons feel good. I'm not sure. The Pro is much more comfortable in hand, and I love the HD rumble...it' adds a lot. But the higher tension sticks, octagonal gates, and button layout of the GCN controller is so good. It gives me calluses at the base of my fingers though, and I can't figure out where to put my left middle finger comfortably (oh wait, just tried toon link + ness.....now I know where to put it.....)

But which controllers are you guys preferring this time?

...So no one has found out about the Black Hole Glitch yet? Is it gone for good? :c

@NEStalgia same here about the Spirit battles, I'm dealing with 9 and 18 Volt, that freakin' Assist Trophy. Gonna try it again because my most powerful Spirit was in the caves at the time. (Nightmare)

As for controls, I think I'll never go back to a normal control setup after playing Smash 3DS. I'm using Pro and I have X and Y as Grab and Shield, lol

@Sanya_Claus LOL...so...how do you jump? Up on the stick? Somehow that never works well for me outside a proper fight stick....

Well jumping with Up has been like that since the very first game, so...yeah I'm used to it. xD

@NEStalgia I use dual joycons. Which, is unsurprising since I've only played in tabletop and portable mode so far. But even when I do get to play docked, I'll stick with joycons. They're such a pleasure to use IMO, I love being able to move my hands freely while I play. Turned off tap jump, otherwise I'm using the normal controls. I'm considering switching my right analog over to tilts though, cause tilts are so much harder to pull off than smashes when it comes to consistency.

@NEStalgia I've been using my Pro, but I'm also used to joycon from so much hand held play.
@link3710 Lemme know what you think. I've fiddled the right stick to tilts a few times, but I find myself using that stick less and less the more I play.

@HobbitGamer I use it a lot actually, but only for aerials. The fact that you can do a down air without entering fast fall makes it far better than using the left stick in my opinion. I'll see how I feel about tilts though? I feel like it'd only make a difference on a couple characters who rely an incredible amount on tilts over smashes.

Protip for anyone still struggling with Pauline fight; use a support that starts with the staff (used Cupid), and a support that makes shooting weapons stronger (used Pocket Football...er?). As soon as the match starts, jump to the platform closest with the two ladders side-by-side and fire twice. If you time the second shot right, it should KO her. Worked on my 3rd restart
@Sanya_Clause Whereabouts on the map is that? I'll go see if I've beaten it or not. If not, I'll try something

It's some weird...base area, it's where you fight Galeom. Some of these fights are just infuriating and rage inducing, and oddly enough they're all aces. Some of the legends I have an easy time with. I just got Viridi after a second try. lol

@AlternateButtons @Sanya_Claus Ugh, that one was such a pain. That was the one with a Mii Brawler, Sheriff, and... someone else, and they spawned constant Galaga ships right? I don't remember how I ended up beating it, other than I had an attract items spirit equipped, and probably an Assist Killer. I think I went straight for Sheriff, took him out, then used the ships to take out the other two once he was finally gone.

@NEStalgia Primarily Joy-Cons since I'm playing mostly handheld right now. Pro Controller feels really good and better, but Joy-Cons are actually quite good.

When I start playing multiplayer with my sisters, I'm going to use the grip while I had them my Pro Controllers.

@AlternateButtons It's the fight in Gamer with the Sheriff firing at you constantly. I also remember doing him fairly easily too though.

Please let me know before you send me a FC request, thanks.

Yeah, the one with Sheriff on the Gamer stage....I tried everything but Sheriff just keeps comboing me off the stage.

@Sanya_Claus Here’s what I just used and won with (turns out I left it for later).
Link, with Beast Ganon primary + giant support + metal support. Ran and bashed away, up attack to sherif while they recovered, then two slash smash to KO fighters.
Probably a smoother way, it did take 4 attempts, but I tend to be stubborn and use brute force as a first resort 😂

Geez, this is way longer than I ever expected

@NEStalgia if they were usb, you could only attach 2-3 of them to the console. Plus, you can get a GC controller! I still can't believe the GC is considered "vintage".

Yeah I'm using GC. Tried joycons and Pro for about .2 seconds.
