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", 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.

This event was pretty difficult for me, but for 1st enemy stock, just stand in a corner, wait for stupid CPU to drop above you, and use Rest. Oh, silly CPU's.

Round 114: Mites vs. Tabuu

Winner!!
Tabuu

9 to 23.5
TabuuFull.jpg
These Subspace Army members are polar opposites in nearly every way - size, power, multiplicity, and so on - though both are dangerous in their own right. Which humanoid gets the prize?

Votes for Mites

  1. Sure, they're small, weak and easy to destroy, but think about it. They team up, rush towards you, and try in their best efforts to hurt you. And then die majestically in battle. You've got to give them a little break. Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! (talk) 03:16, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  2. 2d ftw ㄴ(°n°ㄴ)Lucas-IV- Y U NOSZ Lucas alive.PNG 03:39, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  3. Tabuu is easier then a whole group of these. If the supposed "Weakest" minion is harder to beat then the actual leader, then...yeah. Captain Falcon (Falcon Edit!) File:CFalconHeadSSBB.png 04:37, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  4. I named a goldfish Tabuu. In big numbers, Mites are a hindrance, but Tabuu has ended a lot of Intense Boss Battles challenges, typically with Golden Chain or Off Waves. As Mites are stronger in big numbers, they're going to need more votes. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumA transparent image of Swadloon for my sig. 05:44, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  5. Well obviously plenty of people are gonna vote for Tabuu because he's stronger, the final boss, etc. But I've never really liked him that well. Since this is a popularity contest, I'm voting for the Mites. 67.173.145.76 10:02, 26 November 2011 (EST)

Votes for Tabuu

  1. Tabuu is a being MORE POWERFUL THAN MASTER HAND. Mites are annoying mooks. Smasher49 (talk) 21:07, 25 November 2011 (EST)
  2. Mites can't even jump that high. They wouldn't be able to reach Tabuu if he stayed up high. But Tabuu can hit the Mites anywhere since he has projectile attacks. 110.174.90.69 21:10, 25 November 2011 (EST)

  8. It's one of Tabuu, but 100's of Mites! Mites are pests in lage numbers, hands down. 98.242.123.228 01:19, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  9. Do I really need to explain my vote? ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 03:33, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  10. I actually believe a LIGHT BLUE HUMAN is more popular than a bunch of weird color-like creatures. --107.5.88.135 06:43, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  11. It's not even a contest. Tabuu can take down nearly every smasher in one hit with his Off Waves, the Mites can't even do nearly as much damage. GormanLuigi (talk) 10:42, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  12. Let's thing what would happen if Mites battled Tabuu. Hard question. Oh yeah! Tabuu would just use his Off-Waves and kill all of them at once. Looks like that wasn't so hard a question after all! Mr. AnonMatchupUnknown.pngtalk 12:41, 26 November 2011 (EST)
  13. This is probably the most unfair competition we've done so far. I'm only voting for Tabuu because he's actually a difficult enemy. --FireEmblemFan275 12:55, 26 November 2011 (EST)

  20. Tabuu is a being stronger than Master Hand. Mites are the dinkiest little enemies. HARDLY EVEN A CONTEST. 92.28.204.35 03:07, 28 November 2011 (EST)
  21. Tabuu is super strong and Mites are little wimps.Mastersword (talk) 03:20, 29 November 2011 (EST)
  22. It's Taboo for me to tell you all why I voted for Tabuu. Sonicsidekick95 SonicHeadSSBB.png 14:09, 30 November 2011 (EST)

Comments

Hey, Toomai, while I personally quite like this fight, I must question why it was chosen to be used in the Smash Arena when it got a Support/Oppose ratio of 5/8 on the Suggestions page? Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumA transparent image of Swadloon for my sig. 08:48, 26 November 2011 (EST)

The Support/Oppose ratio is certainly important when determining whether a bout is selected, and admittedly this one probably has the lowest of any chosen fight in recent memory. But when it comes down to it, it's my decision in the end, and I felt this fight's inherently unbalanced nature could provide some interesting results compared to most other relatively-even rounds. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Bold 12:26, 26 November 2011 (EST)
I agree with Toomai; the army of many who are weak alone vs. the one who created them is a unique type of fight. I can't wait for the final score of this. ...Minna, miteite kure! MeleeMarth01 MarthHeadSSBM.png
yep, and lets see who is moar popular, not stronger ㄴ(°n°ㄴ)Lucas-IV- Y U NOSZ Lucas alive.PNG 23:10, 26 November 2011 (EST)

I think lots of people misunderstood 'popularity' and 'strength' ㄴ(°n°ㄴ)Lucas-IV- Y U NOSZ Lucas alive.PNG 11:45, 28 November 2011 (EST)
