SmashArena.png

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week this forum hosts a tussle between two characters, items, stages or anything else from the Super Smash Bros. series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll but functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that round. No, you don't have to vote for the character with strength & power, or the stage considered more "fair", or the combatant with the most fans - just vote if you are a total fanboy of the participant. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you don't have to have an account to vote! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.

The Rules

  1. When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature.
  2. You can only vote once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
  3. Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
  4. Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
  5. There is a line in each section consisting of "DO NOT ADD COMMENTS OR EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE". You are to do so; do not just type your vote at the bottom of the editing window. Not following this rule results in your vote being displayed in the wrong place.
  6. Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
  7. You may change or remove your vote at any time. To do this you must remove your old vote in its entirety; this is an exception to the "never remove comments" rule.
  8. You may only vote in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
  9. Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it). Extra spacing results in the list numbers becoming disjointed.
  10. While previewing an edit of a single section, you will see loose formatting marks (such as a trailing |}). Do not alter or delete them; they are important to the page's construction and only take effect when the entire round is viewed.
  11. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.
  12. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comments section. The following kinds of comments are not allowed:
    • Comments relating to how close or one-sided a matchup is.
    • Comments about other users' opinions. You can point out that a user may have gotten a fact wrong, but you can't say things along the lines of "That's not a good reason" or "But the other guy is better because X". Users can vote for any reason they want; trying to argue with someone's opinion generally has no positive outcome, in addition to simply inflating the comments section of an already rather long page.

If your vote is not added correctly - specifically, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have a short amount of time to fix it (typically between fifteen minutes to an hour). After this time, it may be corrected and moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero at an operator's discretion.

Intentional half-votes undermine the intent of the half-vote system as a way to punish voters for voting incorrectly. It is legal to want a vote to be worth half, but it is very heavily discouraged, and you must state in your vote you want it to be worth half.

Round 138: Marth vs. Lucas

Marth SSBB.jpg
 Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
Lucas SSBB.jpg
Their series marred under the constant gaze of the Pacific Fog, these two combatants have been stuck in Japanland for too long. Which has superior foreign support?

Votes for Marth

  1. Marth has much more finesse and grace than that cowardly Lucas. Toadat9021doh (talk) 21:22, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. I don't have much intrest in either, but I'd say Marth because he has a cool outfit and Lucas is overrated by fans anyways 98.247.37.38 23:14, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  3. Marth is one of my most-used characters in both Melee and Brawl. RickTommy (talk) 23:25, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  4. In regular terms since I'm an EarthBound fanboy, I would probably choose Lucas. In Smashing and Smash arena terms, I would choose Marth because he can grab release and pummel Lucas to his Ultimate Doom. His grab release technique cheapness level is almost as equal to a zerg rush in StarCraft. ..... The Pylon NintenNESsprite.png 00:00, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  5. Lucas's powered-up A is too cheap. Its killed me before at 40% damage.71.55.135.138 09:07, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  6. Remind me again - who made it across the border? Exactly. 24.168.107.113 10:03, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  7. Critical Hit will win PK Starstorm. Stranger 1260 Master Ball.png 11:34, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  8. The Cheese says: I just have to much to say so I will say nothing.75.31.4.16 12:17, 19 May 2012 (EDT)The Cheese 11:16 5/19/2012
  9. The RPG's eh? I prefer marth's style and appearance. Don't forget his sword. LightningBlue: Cinco de Smash 18:17, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  10. I hate Lucas -_- Avengingbandit 20:30, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  11. Marth, as a character, has endured many of life's pains in his times. I vote for him not only because I prefer his playstyle over Lucas, but also his history in his game.Vincent TranscendantKirby-1.png 21:13, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  12. Fun fact:Marth is number 7 on the tier list, and I have amazing talent with him. Plus he looks awesome. MARTH FTW!174.20.240.156 11:50, 20 May 2012 (EDT)
  13. Marth's moveset seems to hold more appeal than Lucas's and, as of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, also manages to be unique. I also like his taunts and general personality (or at least what we can discern of him from his appearances in the SSB series). Unleashing Dancing Blade skillfully on opponents is also fun to perform, as well as landing sweetspotted offensives correctly. Additionally, Marth comes with a sword, which practically seals the deal right there. Although Lucas's fully-charged Up Smash attack and PK Starstorm Final Smash are quite admirable in terms of strength... Fenyx4 (talk) 17:52, 21 May 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Lucas

  1. Favorite character and I have played Mother 3. Never played a fire emblem game. 204.191.138.146 21:35, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. I love Lucas more than any other game character on Earth. I'm bound to pick him. AccoolX File:Accoolx.png 21:47, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  3. I find Marth to be a really annoying character, Lucas on the other hand I find fun to play as. 110.174.90.69 22:18, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  4. Lucas is fun! btw I feel sorry for him. ShupaRoeh 00:03, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  5. I haven't played Fire Emblem and Lucas is one of my mains. 123JamesHeart PatheticStickFigure.jpg 00:13, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  6. I think that Lucas is more stronger in brawl than Marth. 67.68.41.205 08:25, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  7. My main back in the early stages of Brawl, before I started playing somewhat skillfully. Even though a competent player could shield right through it, I still love PK Thunder. You wouldn't think Lucas was 13, wouldja? Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 11:16, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  8. Marth ain't my favorite due to his best moves having very small sweetspots, which I don't like. I'll go with Lucas any 'ole day of the week, I tell you what. 97.67.160.226 12:39, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  9. Simple: I. Hate. Marth. NO questions answered asked. --76.20.130.244 18:08, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  10. I wasn't very happy of how Marth played. Lucas on the the otherhand plays very well. --SSBfan1239 (talk) 20:30, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
  11. I love Mother 3 to pieces! Thus, I absolutely MUST vote for Lucas. Such a good character, and very very fun and easy to play as. Lucas is awesome! 70.241.28.208 23:57, 21 May 2012 (EDT)
  12. He has control of t3h PK phir3!194.17.116.198 03:11, 22 May 2012 (EDT)
  13. Both have gone through hard times, though I don't know Marth's story as well as Lucas'. 199.185.67.18 11:01, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

Half votes

  1. Only two things to say, 1.I don´t really like marth and 2.PK Thunder user talk:smashtito 23:38, 18 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. Lucas is very fun to play and I like how he is one of the only people in the game that has a balanced amount of powerful and weak attacks.

Comments

James, I don't see something wrong with the placing of smashtito's vote. ShupaRoeh 00:21, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

Votes are supposed to be placed in chronological order, plus smashtito's edit also seemed to change some of another user's vote. If these reasons seem too weak for a vote to be in the half votes section, feel free to change it; I'm definitely not the final word on anything on here. 123JamesHeart PatheticStickFigure.jpg 00:42, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
Sorry for objecting. I finally get the reason. ShupaRoeh 00:48, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

The Cheese says: It's so neck-and-neck right now! (If this comment is aggenist rules please delete it A.S.A.P. and leave a comment telling what I did wrong please.) 75.31.4.16 12:25, 19 May 2012 (EDT)The Cheese

You can also just put your signature to your vote. ..... The Pylon NintenNESsprite.png 13:17, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

Can't post the status of the fight. By the way, they told me not to post the status. ShupaRoehTypicalGuy.png 12:33, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

If you're going to tell me I'm wrong, look at the Kirby. It isn't next to a part of a signature. I'm not even sure the signer is going to fix it. ShupaRoehTypicalGuy.png 22:08, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

The signature in question had an extra Enter, which I've removed. The vote will not count as half because it was a problem with the sig, not the vote. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Honcho 22:40, 19 May 2012 (EDT)
Like James said, I'm not the final word. ShupaRoehTypicalGuy.png 22:45, 19 May 2012 (EDT)

LOL...nice pun you made there, AccoolX/Lucas Vote #2. Fenyx4 (talk) 17:52, 21 May 2012 (EDT)

I hope in the next smash arena, that they put Sonic vs Shadow. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.41.205 (talk • contribs) 19:14, 21 May 2012

It probably won't be next match, but you can show your support by voting for the Sonic vs. Shadow suggestion. 123JamesHeart PatheticStickFigure.jpg 20:46, 21 May 2012 (EDT)
@AcoolX That pun was even better than Toast's puns!194.17.116.198 03:14, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

Round 137: Fire Flower vs. Lip's Stick

FireflowerSSBB.jpg
 Winner!!
Fire Flower
FireflowerSSBB.jpg

22.5 to 16
Lipstick.jpg
Two flower-based items, one with spore shooting, the other with combustive chemicals. Which petal-powered pickup prevails?

Votes for Fire Flower

  1. After you're done using it, you can throw it for average knock back and fair damage. Also, it's ever so present in Mario, I just love it quite a large amount.Vincent Transvestite O_oKirby-1.png 23:35, 4 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. I like Mario, so I like Fire Flower. Besides, MALLEO says this kickass quote! ShupaRoeh 00:38, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  3. Longer and deals damage on the spot. Despise the fact you can DI out of it. LightningBlue: LBPeep LB Peep.png 00:41, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  4. Burn baby burn! Disco...Inferno!! 208.54.40.214 01:15, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  5. Using this against the wall= Epic Trolling. King KirbyD KingKirbyD.png 07:44, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  6. Mario is always special 2 me!!!99.235.62.184 10:26, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  7. Very close decision for me, but Fire Flower just wins in the heat of battle. AccoolX File:Accoolx.png 10:41, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  8. Fire versus, what, something that puts a flower on your head? This one wins in the coolness department.174.30.216.74 17:16, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  9. In Brawl, characters can move while using it now, meaning that it can be used to push a character beyond the blast line, resulting in a K.O. Smash Master 17:29, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  10. ..... The Cutest NintenNESsprite.png 09:25, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
  11. Fire flower will never be PWNED by a simple flower. User talk:Smashtito 12:09, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
  12. Lipstick sucks anyway.194.17.116.198 05:26, 7 May 2012 (EDT)
  13. This shoots flames. The other makes the opponent grow a flower on their head. No contest. Takava (talk) 14:31, 7 May 2012 (EDT)
  14. I'm not letting that crappy flower win. Fire burn flowers. I have never once K.Oed someone with a flower thing but the fire flower has gotten me 1 so it wins. 92.42.57.34 03:23, 8 May 2012 (EDT)
  15. Fire Flower (Smash) = Fire Flower (Mario). Lip's Stick (Smash) = Anyone off Jersey Shore's stained trousers. FIRE FLOWER ALL THE WAY! 81.141.68.50 04:41, 8 May 2012 (EDT)
  16. Fire Flower isn't annoying, the only thing I wish would change is how much it's affected by gravity. Blue Ninjakoopa(Talk) 15:57, 10 May 2012 (EDT)
  17. I never play with items turned on, and fire flowers are cooler. DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} 20:54, 10 May 2012 (EDT)
  18. Although I like the Lip's Stick's punny name and its prolonged effect during opponent-battering, Fire Flower FTW - mainly due to TEH F1R3Z and its usage has more "oomph" to it. I like the Fire Flower's design a bit more (especially in SSB Brawl), and the flames that it spews/secretes are amazing against foes that are backed into a corner/against a wall. Also, whenever you or your teammate is Ness or Lucas during matches, the Fire Flower does wonders when PSI Magnet is used to absorb the flames. I do wish the Fire Flower caused better damage/knockback whenever it is thrown/discarded, though. Fenyx4 (talk) 11:14, 11 May 2012 (EDT)
  19. Love Mario games. DarkFox01 18:20, 11 May 2012 (EDT)
  20. --Havoc48 >:D!!! 12:07, 13 May 2012 (EDT)
  21. For Nostalgia Sakes. Thenonexistent (talk) 18:54, 17 May 2012 (EDT)

Half votes

  1. I think that the fire flower would be better because it can detonate any bombs or explosive crates and K.O any opponents Brawler543 (talk) 11:24, 8 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. The Fire Flower is epic! The Lip's Stick... just sucks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.247.37.38 (talk • contribs) 11:27, 13 May 2012 (EDT)
  3. Fire Flower is the number one item in the Mario Series!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.41.205 (talk • contribs) 17:38, 15 May 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Lip's Stick

  1. Lip's stick creates flowers that damages others, and that's the thing that I like. Stranger 1260 Master Ball.png 23:32, 4 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. Fire Flower getting credited for its throw attack? I didn't think I'd hear that, I don't think of the discard attack as very good. Lip's Stick, however, has a very good throw attack, with good range, effect, and still plants the flower. And Fire Flower's general attack use is not something I'm a fan of. Plus, I loved Pokémon Puzzle Challenge, so Panel De Pon must be good :P Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 09:26, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  3. This thing rocks. You can constantly damage your opponent and make them look stupid! 24.168.107.113 10:13, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  4. 204.191.132.218 12:10, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  5. REALLY close decision, but ultimately I choose Lip's Stick since it also makes a decent throwing item. 110.174.90.69 12:16, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  6. The flower of death. --Fireemblemlogo.pngFan275 16:11, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  7. THE FLOWER OF FLOWERS-- Captain Falcon talk 09:03, 6 May 2012 (EDT)
  8. Inspite of Lip's Stick being a kinda disturbing name, it feels like it takes more skill to use one of these.71.55.128.250 14:57, 6 May 2012 (EDT)BK
  9. While Lip's Stick is an average item, Fire Flower is near useless, with its item attack being decidedly poor (low damage, poor range for a projectile, and a multi-hitting attack that's easy to escape), and its throw attack is among the worst of items (nearly no knockback, poor damage, and its flight is slow as well as short distanced). Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 06:03, 7 May 2012 (EDT)
  10. I find this more useful. 199.185.67.18 11:03, 7 May 2012 (EDT)
  11. I like the Fire Flower, just not so much in Brawl. Lip's Stick is fun to use. 67.173.145.76 15:32, 7 May 2012 (EDT)
  12. Fire Flower is good in the Mario Series, but in Brawl Fire Flower's ability is just too normal. Kirbysuperstar (talk) 07:14, 8 May 2012 (EDT)
  13. This thing is way more fun to use. Floor2000x (talk) 17:21, 8 May 2012 (EDT)
  14. The one I always use. 123JamesHeart PatheticStickFigure.jpg 11:08, 12 May 2012 (EDT)
  15. It's more useful in my opinion. --SSBfan1239 (talk) 14:34, 18 May 2012 (EDT)

Half votes

  1. Flower Brawls definitely help de-promote the cheapness of camping. Toadat9021doh (talk) 13:47, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
  2. Lip's stick is the much better weapon. I think the only reason Fire Flower is winning is because it is from the iconic Mario series, while Lip's Stick is from an uncommon game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.160.215.75 (talk • contribs) {{{2}}}

Now that's the battle that would create lots of suspense! ShupaRoeh 21:22, 7 May 2012 (EDT)

@Blue Ninjakoopa: Wellllllllll look who's back. Semicolon (talk) 18:10, 10 May 2012 (EDT)

Oh NOT Semicolon! the user's dumb! ShupaRoeh 22:23, 10 May 2012 (EDT)

Not Toast in this crap! ShupaRoeh 17:45, 11 May 2012 (EDT)
I don't quite follow. But insult Semicolon at your own peril. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 17:56, 11 May 2012 (EDT)

Question to ShupaRoeh: just what in the heck do you think you're doing? You get one chance to explain this odd behavior. Semicolon (talk) 08:59, 12 May 2012 (EDT)

I give up. ShupaRoeh 09:27, 12 May 2012 (EDT)
Wrong answer. You don't go around moving stuff and then calling other users dumb (unless they've done something dumb. Then that's perfectly okay.) As I didn't do anything dumb, calling me dumb is a violation of SW:NPA. Since it's so marginal, I thought I'd give you a chance to explain it, as it seemed odd, unsolicited, and curiously psychotic in a harmless sort of way. Since you have no explanation, consider this a (confused) warning. Semicolon (talk) 18:56, 12 May 2012 (EDT)

I really like the awesome alliteration present in this poll's/match's description. XD Fenyx4 (talk) 11:14, 11 May 2012 (EDT)

Btw shuparoeh read rule 12 for a change. Do not make commets about the status of the fight. It is not necessary. LightningBlue: LBPeep LB Peep.png 18:32, 11 May 2012 (EDT)
I didn't see the rule. Add it or leave it. ShupaRoeh 23:51, 11 May 2012 (EDT)

No new round this week, the file in which I keep Smash Arena data got messed up and I have to redo it. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Spark 18:18, 12 May 2012 (EDT)
