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! Though new requests for fights can no longer be made, voting on already existing requests can be done 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. If you put your vote in the half-votes reason without stating you want it there, it is worth zero and may be deleted by any user. You may replace it later should you do it correctly.

Comments

Y U Guys hate Olimar? LightningBlue 19:07, 14 July 2012 (EDT)

I'm not really allowed to be critical towards one particular vote, but "Olimar is the worst character besides Jigglypuff" is just plain wrong. Shanicpower, you should get Wi-Fi so I can wreck you with my main, that being Olimar. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumA transparent image of Swadloon for my sig. 19:18, 14 July 2012 (EDT)
OK Let's cut to the chase. ShupaRoehTypicalGuy.png 20:04, 14 July 2012 (EDT)
I don't like to use Olimar, but there's a difference between not liking a character and thinking a character is terrible. Naked Snake 200px-Naked Snake.jpg 22:36, 14 July 2012 (EDT)

Round 145: Lightning Kick vs. Knee Smash

Zelda's fair Lightning Kick in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
 Winner!!
Knee Smash

10.5 to 30
Knee Smash.png
A pair of fairs with flair. Which Leg attack with a shocking sweetspot will KO the competition?

Votes for Lightning Kick

  1. I like Zelda better, plus it's more normal to hit its sweet spot.71.55.135.140 08:57, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  2. Because I uploaded the image this attack is stronger. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 12:07, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  3. Pity vote. --99.249.196.42 09:10, 8 July 2012 (EDT)
  4. I know this vote probably won't affect the outcome of this fight in any way, but Legend of Zelda is my second favorite video game series, so here goes.174.20.232.90 10:59, 8 July 2012 (EDT)
  5. Knee Smash is overrated. Lightning Kick is underrated. Meta Ike Image for Meta Ike's signature 15:49, 8 July 2012 (EDT)
  6. Well, this works as a back air too. The opponent is smashing too, but I'm more inclined to place my vote here. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumA transparent image of Swadloon for my sig. 07:47, 9 July 2012 (EDT)
  7. Attack of preference. Simple as .ScoreCounter (talk) 14:44, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
  8. HYAKURETSUKYAKU!!!...er..wrong Lightning Kick. Anyway, although I really love Captain Falcon's awesome Knee of Justice (more properly rendered as KNEE! OF! JUSTICE!) attack, the visuals, animation, and movement for Zelda's Lightning Kick seem more appealing to me; and it also seems to be slightly more difficult to execute and land the Lightning Kick's sweetspot properly compared to sweetspotting the Knee of Justice. And finally, Zelda ROCKS! Fenyx4 (talk) 22:35, 12 July 2012 (EDT)
  9. Zelda's so cute with the Lightning Kick, I'll tell you what. Knee of Justice hurts bad, but the Lightning Kick of Fate hurts more. Comes out quick, but hard to get the sweetspot right. But Lightning Kick still rocks! 97.67.160.226 13:41, 13 July 2012 (EDT)
  10. She has two lightning kicks, so she can hit people behind her, whereas Captain Falcon has only 1.--71.118.247.18 22:36, 13 July 2012 (EDT)

Votes for Knee Smash

  1. EPIC!!! 204.191.134.129 00:08, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  2. The two moves are pretty equal, but Falcon uses this, and he is awesome. DarkFox01: USA! 00:36, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  3. This move is the original, and it was great in Melee. Naked Snake 200px-Naked Snake.jpg 01:09, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  4. ...is this even a contest??? DoctorPain99 {ROLLBACKER} 02:11, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  5. In Melee, the Knee was among the most feared forward aerials in the game, if not the best. It was remarkably easy to sweetspot with given it's sex kick properties, Falcon's superb mobility, and his many setup options. It sent foes in a semi spike trajectory, and had both high base knockbase and knockback scaling. Zelda's Fair/bair cannot simply compete. It's natural where my vote goes.--BrianDon't try me!Falco.gif 03:49, 7 July 2012 (EDT)

  11. Captain Falcon is my favourite character, and the Knee Smash is epic. 110.174.90.69 07:35, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  12. I used to like Lightning Kick, but then I took a smash to the knee... AirConditioner File:Accoolx.png 09:02, 7 July 2012 (EDT)

  18. The Knee of Justice cannot be beaten by girly magical rainbow kicks. Samzapp (talk) 16:58, 7 July 2012 (EDT)
  19. It's one of Captain Falcon's moves, and anything Captain Falcon does is unbeatable. Toadat9021doh (talk) 17:16, 7 July 2012 (EDT)

Comments

This seems like a rather one-sided contest due to Captain Falcon's general popularity (and the Knee Smash is one of his trademark moves, so...). Naked Snake 200px-Naked Snake.jpg 04:52, 7 July 2012 (EDT)

I completely agree with you. This is barely a fair fight. Although I just know someone's gonna pity vote. Bowzerdude- Pure Epicness! 06:55, 7 July 2012 (EDT)

Someone must have saw my suggestion before it got removed because of the policy. F1reBurn1ng (talk) 11:42, 9 July 2012 (EDT)

Nevermind. I didn't see your vote until after I posted that. F1reBurn1ng (talk) 15:32, 10 July 2012 (EDT)

I really like the "light-blue and yellow" color scheme used for the Lightning Kick "box/table" in this round. :D Fenyx4 (talk) 22:35, 12 July 2012 (EDT)
