    I remember hearing someone say that Kirby was probably one of the first characters developed for Melee, and he became a victim of power creep as more characters were added, and I think it makes sense

      If that’s true, that… actually would explain a lot. Not fundamentally broken stuff like mashable throws and the stupidly weak aerial hammer, but why he’s so weak in general.
      Did this person have a source?

    Fun fact: I believe in an interview Sakurai said that Kirby being your first character in WoL isn't (entirely) bias. He said it's cause Kirby's one of the 3 characters Sakurai thinks could canonically survive Galeem's attack. The other two being Palutena and Bayo. He chose Kirby from those three because he's the most beginner friendly. (Tho it could totally still be bias lol)

    • @Crzypengu

      Its probably a bit of bias and the fact that Kirby is a little bit easier to play. Personally I think Palutena and Bayonetta should of been characters that can be playable at the beginning as well.

      Yeah two moments really hammered home why Kirby can seem okay at first but be so crap:
      Puff vs Kirby jumps: pound and airspeed completely solve horizontal recovery. That difference is massive.
      The joking "flowchart" moments where it's like "okay, grab leads into something if you read it and don't do a non functional throw. Up tilt into --> single aerial is your best punish" makes it really stark. As a beginner you're mostly stringing together random hits out of neutral. Every other character eventually links those hits together into a strategy. Kirby just kinda has to win neutral 100 times

    I like to think (despite validity) that Kirby is bad in Melee because he's too... normal. Many hitboxes are more realistic, and many of the better characters rely on some sort of exploit or mistake in the design. This may be an excuse, but especially with how fun he is, that's just fine with me.
    Edit: Another comment mentioned he may have been designed earlier than the others, and that could pair with this. They had a style, but concepts changed as the rest of the game developed. (again, more breaks and such as well)

  • @bobbbyjohnson
    @bobbbyjohnson 2 роки тому +118

    Here are some more fun useful facts about Kirby that makes him even more....
    Shit.
    Kirby's ub-b when used consumes all of his jumps, even if he has used only one! So if he gets hit once, even on the startup, he's dead no matter what.
    The same thing applies with his up throw! And it is why a lot of players only go for up throw at low percents, since it MAY lead to a tech chase on a platform, IF your opponent is drunk, or really slow. However, it can be used to Kirbycide that cannot be escaped out of.... if you roll to the back of ledge and your opponent somehow doesn't see it coming.
    Kirby's down throw sends at such a bad angle, Marth can immediately up-b out of it to prevent being tech chased. Not only can Marth up-b out, but puff can actually REST. Meaning if you grab puff and they know about it, they can immediately kill you with rest at 13%.
    Kirby rock can actually slide along ledges and is pretty funny to use on Yoshi's if someone is recovering along the side and you want to have a good chuckle.
    Kirby's dash attack when caped by Doc or Mario actually slide backwards, so he does his own version of the flaming moonwalk.
    Kirby's biggest claim to fame is the fact that his spotdodge is the fastest in the cast. Meaning when you see Kirby's just spotdodge like crazy, they're just using the only thing that makes Kirby.... Kirby.
    I've mained Kirby for a long time, and appreciate you reading this! :) I'd love to see if there is anything else not so commonly known about Kirby!

      I’d been playing as him competitively since the beginning of Smash 4 but dropped him a few months ago in favor of Dark Pit because I dread fighting about 70% of the roster as Kirby. He gets steamrolled by speed demons, walled out by swordies and zoners, and deleted in three hits by heavies since they tend to outrange him. He’s got decent CQC but struggles to make use of it and he’s the got the low weight of a lot of high/top tiers but very little of the power and none of the speed that usually accompanies it.

    I got absolutely blown away at 2:06 at hearing a track from Futarino Fantavision. The soundtrack for that game is fenomenal. The gameplay, however, isn't that super, but still fun from time to time.
    I remember playing it's multiplayer with my girlfriend a few years back at new years eve, and it was actually really fun! Might even recommend the game for just a NYE game with friends. It's also really cheap, as I got it for €1,99 from my local gamestore.

    If you get hit out of Kirby's up-b, you lose all your jumps - you can actually see it in the clip shown for this too, he should've had 5 jumps left but doesn't recover to ledge bc he lost them getting hit out of up-b

      That's not necessarily exclusive to Kirby, though. With Jigglypuff, Yoshi and his exception, everyone loses their double jump as soon as they Up-B (also true for a few other specials). HOWEVER Kirby only loses his jumps if he gets hit out of the uppercut portion onward of Up-B!

    Up throw is actually also a potential Kirbycide throw when used very close to the ledge and facing away from it. It can't be mashed out off either. I've definitely taken surprise stocks at 0% with that.

    i play some seth in street fighter v, who has a mechanic that allows him to copy his opponent's moves and use them as a single-use consumable, and it's really fun to discover what moves each character gives him and the unique voice lines he has using them. It's disappointing that melee kirby sucks this much, i'd love to go online and meme on people with their own attacks

      There's not much to it in Melee... but the Copy meta is strong in later games.
      Several specials are put to far better use in Kirby's moveset, or else are actually an extremely useful tool in that matchup.
      There are still some pretty useless ones, but there are a few matchups where if Kirby can get and keep that special, he's in a very, very strong position.
      I know Ridley is one of the best. Kirby uses the fireballs far better, and can be far more aggressive with them, while the move itself is hell for Ridley to try and deal with.
      King K.Rool as well.

      Oh, Kirby vs Ridley is an absolute meme matchup. Especially once Kirby gets that Neutral Special, the game often turns into a weird staring and poking contest. Ridley completely snuffs Kirby's approach game... but Ridley legitimately has a hard time approaching Kirby, especially if Kirby has that neutral special copied.
      The result is a sort of awkward game of shuffling and feints, until someone gets bored and impatient, and wins or loses based entirely on twitch reactions.
