Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Aug 7 09 A

Team Matches take a long time to get set up because you need four players in order to have one. However, you're far more likely to have a regular battle instead of a taunt party if you feel like something more traditional. Come to think of it, it's been a while since you saw a traditional battle here, huh?

Match #1
Pit
Corneria
The game locks up on me and disconnects everybody at the final moment...I didn't keep track of score, so I wasn't sure who's winning, but it does get kind of annoying that disconnections like these happen most often during the last 15 seconds of a match more than any other time for me.

Match #2
Donkey Kong
Pokémon Stadium 2
Well, now I know that the Home Run Bat that Ness carries around with him can go right through shields. No wonder I hit so often when I use that. It was pretty even for some time, but the match went right into the gutter when blue Fox got the Landmaster and smacked red Fox around like a pinball. It's also not very often that the Flying stage shows up and I actually see people using the updrafts. People just usually remain grounded and treat the stage like it turned into Final Destination.

Match #3
Diddy Kong
New Pork City
It's pretty rare to see an actual match in New Pork City. Just like its cousin Temple, it seems to be used most often for taunt parties. Here, I score 3 KOs on the stage, which I'm pretty sure doesn't happen very often for a place this huge. Its too bad so much of it wound up being near the bottom. I would've liked seeing it move somewhere else.

Dis-connections like that happens when people leave in the middle of a match, at least in my experience. I was beating everyone in the room by about 4 points, and about a minute in it Dis-connected. I just have a feeling if things aren't going well for them, some people just leave in the last few second. Cheap, and annoying.

[Overhazard]

Is that why I often see them in the last 15 seconds of a match...I thought a computer player is supposed to take over for someone who disconnected.

[Ankarua]

Yeah. I think that's how it SHOULD have worked, but Nintendo kinda messed that up...

The computers seem to appear randomly when someone leaves the match. I've had 3 people leave, and no computers show up when it counts down to a 1v1. Other times, 1 person leaves and is replaced by a computer.  Go figure.

[Overhazard]

No, I mean in the middle of a match. I assume it only happens when you pseudo-pause the game and press the buttons to quit and not the more common method of simply turning off the Wii.

[Ankarua]

I've never had a computer replace someone in the middle of a match actually. I don't know if it even happens. If it does, well, it does.

[Overhazard]

Well, it was designed to be seamless and that you're not supposed to notice it.

Awww the picture at the beginning was sweet

Red won the first match. It was something like +1 to -1 to Red.

Ness' bat can go through shields? Can't say I ever noticed that.

I do know that his bat can reflect projectiles, same with Lucas' Stick.

[Breludicolo]

meh, new pork city is a bad stage... it's too damn bland, and so hard to score a KO. Mushroomy Kingdom is soooo much better, or pictochat.

And if you really have gone to temple more than FD, I ENVY you ;(

(Excuse me for the second comment, but I ran out of space in the first one)

So, now I'm trying to choose Luigi's mansion instead of New Pork City. Actually, I've learned to take advantage of the stage's obstacles so I can more easily escape people like Final Destinationers or Spammers. If Luigi's Mansion gets overused, I'll just start choosing Mushroomy Kingdom.

*Reads description*

Oh. Well, yeah, New Pork City is what I like to choose instead of Hyrule Temple (seriously, I've been to Hyrule Temple even more than Final Destination!!)

When going to New Pork City on this day though, did you really expect a taunt party? Taunt parties almost never go into Team Battles; it's just less freedom for them in those matches.

Actually, now I've noticed that New Pork City has become the taunt parties' version of Smashville; now it's being constantly chosen.
