@AlternateButtons: I rarely get lag so bad that I want to quit a match. Sounds like it's a You problem and not a universal problem, but the lack of options and the restrictions on quitting matches given that such horrendous lag does, in fact, happen is inexcusable. Nintendo teamed up with DeNA for help with their net coding. Let's just hope that comes through sooner rather than later.
Also, Samus isn't broken. Maybe she could use a tiny buff, but she's just fine.

Her only special that has kill power at decent percentage is the fully charge shot. The super missiles KO red line Mewtwo around ~180. Mewtwo is one of the lighter characters, Bowser is around ~245. Samus out of her suit is more deadly than her inside of her suit, which is the opposite of the lore for her.
@IceClimbers: A number of things I notice: most of these are bad hitboxes. Not weak moves. Samus's kill moves are mostly smashes and tilts, which happens to be the same for most ground characters. This video fails to take into account stale move negation, which is when you do the same move over and over and it becomes weaker. I don't feel she really NEEDS kill throws as her grab is too good as it is. (On that note, I feel Ness shouldn't HAVE kill throws because that's just bs.)

I'll be honest with you, you have no idea how much you're wrong. For a character that has more power with the suit on. She needs the Biggest Buff in Smash History ever.
Jab doesn't connect. Even the game hints say's that you should just jab1 and run. That's a no go.
Tilts are really laggy and punishable. S-Tilt has 1 sweet spot and it's to far away compared to the sour spots that can be punished so easily and at point blank like the Side SMash in the video, it can completely miss.
Smashes are utter-crap; UpSmash doesn't connect well enough still, DSmash sucks unlike Brawls, and her Side Smash (Which is always the strongest Smash) literally worse than everyone else's Smash. Compared to Marth, these smashes have both Sweet and sour spots and Marth has an even better sweet spot reward and range.
Air attacks are sub-par but still bad. The NAir is bad for trying to hit behind you (And Nuetral airs is supposed to be for both sides) and has a massive blind spot on grounded opponents. The UAir has better effect on grounded anything. Compare Marths NAir again and they both take the same amount of time. but Marth can still hit anyone. Samus can only hit taller characters like Rosaluma and Bowser.
Blind spots are a no go in general
DAir. Compare to C.Falcons.
Rolls... For a character that can literally roll... she has the longest, punishable and readable rolls.
Coolest looking grabs. That do nothing. They're just throws that are used for getting the C.Beam up. Which can be reflected, blocked or dodged. Landing them is no easy game.
Not enough combo's, cause they can be Di'ed and Rage effect can nullify them. The DThrow can be avoided well enough.
Missiles > Super Missiles. Weather stale move using is a thing, she's supposed to be a projectile spam character, so she needs to use them. They have good pop but you can't combo into them. You might as well not use them as reflecting them has more of a bonus than they usually do, because you don't benefit anything from shooting a Super Missile in the first place..
Down-B can interrupt you. You wanna get a hit in or run away or something and the bomb will pop you and you get punished.
Megaman is what Samus should have been. More "Pew pew" and crap. Megaman in Smash run, plays like Megaman. Samus in Smash Run, feels like Karate Kicking.
There's many more reasons. But Samus needs a hell of a buff. Strong as the moves may be in your offence. They don't mean anything when they're horrible. Someone needs to send this to Nintendo. Sakurai may not know Smash competitive, but he can fix stuff. Look at Diddy.
i don't understand why people talk about nerfs and buffs so much instead of playing the game and getting better..... if the best player in the world doesn't let nerfs stop him why would anyone else care?
@Megumi: Ikr? Because this game is meant to be for pros only and playing for fun makes it worse /sarcasm.
Well I try to put a lot of technical plays into my falcon to improve him in 1v1 matches and maybe team matches if they make online with FRIENDLY FIRE! Hopefully they do that for two players online at least.

Something needs to be done with the tournament mode.
You shouldn't have to be waiting half an hour for it to start if the lobby is already full... and the fact that they give you a 3 min time limit for 1vs1 matches is ridiculous. Most of these matches will end in time and the true winner isn't even determined. It's given due to "activity"... basically who moves around more. Which moron thought this would be a good thing? If it's not going to be judged on damage given then just make it sudden death.
The tournament mode in its current state is pretty awful. A step in the right direction but it needs a lot of work.
@kelvin217@TeeJay@TheGreatLord And anyone else interested. I don't plan on doing much tomorrow, so I'd like to go around and do some 1v1s with some of the people here! The people I picked I remember wanting to 1v1 one me at some point, but anyone who wants to add me ( UGXwolf ) for Smash Wii U, I will attempt to play with you as well. I'd like to say I'm going to be organized and have some kinda schedule or something, but not likely. I'll just try to wing it and see what happens. Leave a reply telling me when you'll be available tomorrow and we'll see about setting up reasonable play times.
@CapeSmash: That's a really inaccurate way of tallying it up. The way you did it, you're also counting votes for people who went to the thread to bash the character or for people going to the thread over and over and over. It also skews towards newcomers as there's less to talk about in terms of returning veterans, leaving their threads less active. Granted the only really accurate way to tally this up is by reading the thread to see what everyone actually thinks and only talking one vote per person as opposed to one oer post. And... Looking at the size of that K. Rool thread... I don't blame you for not doing it this way.
