Robinigo Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Fair warning; spoilers below... Not that I don't want Chrom or someone else as the character, it just could be an interesting idea. Instead of alternate color schemes, My Unit could use six different character types; the three male default options, as well as the three female default options (playing along with the new "customization" sakurai has said he'd like to incorporate). I'm going to try and list the moves and such, let me know if you think this has any chance of possibly happening in your eyes. Moves: B- Thunder: Much like Lucario and Mewtwo's aura sphere/psy-ball it would charge up first and fire when tapped again. B+side- Luna: A move similar to Fox's holo-dash, except My Unit is followed by a yellow, glimmering trail, and enemy hit with this move is sent crash down (an enemy on the ground falls to their feet, similar to the focus attack in street fighter 4) B+down- Counter: Just like any other counter on Marth, Ike, or Roy (I know, ironic on the females, oh well) B+up- Rescue: Can be aimed like Zelda's farore's wind, a teleport with rescue staff sound effects. A- Swing the sword AAA- Swing the sword from left to right, right to left, then up to down A+side- An upward swing, launches enemy corresponding to damage A+down- Puts a fire from an elfire tome in front of My Unit A+up- Just like the previous only the fire appears directly above My Unit Smash+side- Critical hit: My Unit swings the sword heavily and delivers a critical hit (using killing edge) Smash+down- Valflame: My Unit engulfed him/herself in a valflame explosion, slightly damaging him/herself in Exchange for massive range Smash+up- Thoron: My Unit fires a Thoron bolt straight up a short distance and it shocks whatever it touches. Taunt: Victory Pose with tome for tactition/grandmaster Taunt: My Unit raises an arm and has a small thunder projectile in it Taunt: Victory Pose with sword for tactition branch Note: Both final smashs bring a critical cutscene across the front of the stage and a random critical quote is picked. Final Smash (idea 1): Ignis: My Unit uses Ignis skill and all of his/her attacks increase in power and range, My Unit also cannot take damage, lasts for 15 seconds Final Smash (idea 2): Grima (lol spoilers): My Unit calls Grima to the stage, Grima hovers behind the stage and fires expiration bolts all over the stage, causing massive explosions, at about one bolt every other second Grima last for 16 seconds Well, that's it. Tell me what you thought below, should My Unit use Japanese or English voices? Edited July 13, 2013 by SpikyRtG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic General Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I would love to see MU in Smash Bros, so I support this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Othin Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Avatar/Robin would make most sense next to Chrom rather than as a replacement for him, but yes. Using a hood could also take out the need for the original customization options to dominate the appearance selection; far more likely, they'd just do the Wario thing with slightly different appearances for the two genders and a set of colors for each, with an added voice change. Of course, given that the main purpose would be to introduce an FE character with notably different fighting styles, such as magic, it would be complete foolishness for them to apply the Counter move yet again.

Robinigo Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Yeah, as redundant as counter is, it seems to be a mainstay among FE characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I think MU should just have two modes: Magical and physical. B+Down would be used to switch between the two movesets, signifying the dominance of the weapon and magic triangles in their own right.

Silver Lightning Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Cool idea! I agree that we should have different customization options to coincide with the original game and Sakurai's comments. As for the Grima final smash, I think it would also be cool if you could actually become Grima and wreak havoc (sorta like Giga Bowser), but both work IMO. Another thing I wish they would do but severely doubt would happen is if for a final smash they use the Pair Up feature with a random FE13 character (like a pokeball-esque final smash; you never know who is going to assist you), so that all of them may randomly get screen time during the final smash complete with unique dual attacks and voice clips. Speaking of voices, I would imagine they'd use english for the english version and japanese for the japanese version....

KnightOfCalc Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I am KnightOfCalc and I support this idea. Final Smash: Grima is also an excellent idea. Add a couple of those Grima Spike things and it will be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Well, that's it. Tell me what you thought below, should My Unit use Japanese or English voices? While I'm not hopeful for this idea... Obviously, the US version of smash would use English voices, just like how they did with Ike for Brawl. That's just a given. Despite the fact that I remember being disappointed that I didn't hear "DAI TEN KUU!" when I finally got my copy so long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinigo Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 I just figured I'd ask about the voices, Roy's were in Japanese back on melee, so I figured anything was possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewjeo Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 That's because back in Melee (and Brawl for Marth) the FE character didn't have English games. Marth still only has a Japanese voice in Brawl, right? I haven't played in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceBrand Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 If avatar is in they should do them like they did Wario( having two different outfits( in avatars case different genders). They should also share the same move set too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueFire Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I want the Final Smash to be multiple Astras of a sword and various tomes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheon Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I want the Final Smash to be multiple Astras of a sword and various tomes. If MU did make it, the Final Smash would likely be some incarnation of Ignis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceBrand Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Their final smash could be them turning into Grima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnell Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I actually would really like Robin to be the third FE rep. Personally, I feel like Marth, Ike, and Robin would be the perfect cast of FE reps, though that is slightly swayed by my Ike fanboy-ism. (I don't see the purpose of replacing Ike with Chrom, when the only iconic moves Chrom has are shared with Ike; at that point why even bother re-skinning the character?) Robin would be so excellent: he/she is the perfect rep of Awakening. His/her moves would have no overlap with Marth/Roy/Ike/Chrom, since Robin is usually focused on magic, and he/she is a main character in the most recent title. Also, a magic wielder would be a breath of fresh air following all the FE sword users. After all, while Marth, Roy, and Ike do play differently, there's only so different you can get while still only using a sword. Not to mention the fact that Robin is a tactician, so some sort of Rally system could be implemented to make him a very nuanced and deep character. Anyway, fingers crossed for Robin. I think he/she is a long shot compared to Chrom and Tharja, but MU would be a great addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULTRA PRODIGY NUXL Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Anyway, fingers crossed for Robin. I think he/she is a long shot compared to Chrom and Tharja, but MU would be a great addition. wat Are you implying that SSB4 will contain insane fanservice? If so, just give Tharja her summer scramble outfit and you're ready to go. On a serious note, this seems like a great idea, kudos to you. Love the Grima ability, too.

Robinigo Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I appreciate the praise! I had this idea floating around my head for a while and had to put it somewhere. Of course, not to sound conceited or anything, but now I'd almost be disappointed if MU didn't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitchy Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 In the 3DS version, if you have Awakening, you could transfer your MU data and play as him/her. As for the Wii U version and people who don't have Awakening, they would be named Robin and would have the unchanged look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) In the 3DS version, if you have Awakening, you could transfer your MU data and play as him/her. So... how would that work for the cartridges? Besides the physical limitation for some people... that's catering to the FE audience too much.

lightdasher Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 See, I had an idea for avatar in brawl Non B moves would be Sword B moves would be magic Final Smash would be Ignis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnell Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) See, I had an idea for avatar in brawl Non B moves would be Sword B moves would be magic Final Smash would be Ignis I do like the idea of basic attacks being physical and specials being magic, with smashes being either all physical or a mixture of the two. It would make Robin very well-rounded, as well as make him unique from other magicians like Zelda. However, I still think Rallies could be a great signature move for Robin. Give him a downB or neutralB Rally attack which, after being charged, gives him a half minute of like 2% extra damage output, with repeated uses of Rally allowing for stacked increases up to a maximum of like 6-8%. That could generate some really interesting strategies. Rather than being an all-out aggressive character, Robin would start fairly weak and have to hold back at first, focusing on escaping his opponent for long enough to charge a few Rallies before really taking the offensive. Then, of course, he would be a force to be reckoned with, at least until the Rallies wore off. Rally attacks would fit Robin's role as a tactician very well.

shadowofchaos Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 As interesting as the rally thing sounds... as it's not unheard of in other fighting games... ...it's a battle cry. I'd rather not see MU as Resetti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Maybe Robin could use a Levin Sword? He could use magical attacks with the thunderbolts at range for special moves and attack in close range without the need for the sword's magic for regular attacks.

lightdasher Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I was thinking of something like different costumes has him using different swords. Also the moveset I had was Up B -> Rexcalibur Side B -> Thoron Down B -> Bolganone And Nuetral B would be Either Basic Fire, Wind or Thunder attack depending on the last used B, Defaults to Thunder at round start, Kirby uses whichever Avatar last used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
