So it turns out that Amiibos are actually incredibly good at the game

 

[DoT2]

What... is this post...

 

[Wyndstryker]

Of course it's a Fox Amiibo

 

[Pappasman]

Fully leveled up amiibos do more damage than stock characters. Even without feeding them equipment.

 

[Bomber Bob]

 

[TUSR]

huh

edit: oh, cpu amiibo

 

[kewlmyc]

I wonder if it ate any equipment or not...

 

[Rockk]

no mindgames and huge damage bonuses. Not that surprising.

 

[SovanJedi]

Of course it's a Fox Amiibo

EXACTLY what I said when I scrolled down.

 

[PreyingShark]

This is beautiful.

 

[Tripon]

Amiibos have shield and damage buffs. Of course they are good at the game.

 

[Scum]

Of course it's a Fox Amiibo

lol. It just had to be.

 

[OldGangWarily]

I really wish there was a way to fight against Amiibos without the stat boosts.

 

[Drkirby]

It should be noted the Amiibos can have higher then normal stats.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Why can't I team up with one of my Amiibos and fight online with another person and their favorite Amiibo on the other team.

I want this shit to turn into Pokemans Smash Edition.

 

[PK Gaming]

The Amiibo took 3rd place overall

 

[exfatal]

Still funny even though they get stat boost

 

[Kusagari]

Of course it's a Fox Amiibo

Yep, had to be Fox.

 

[Vena]

Balances out CPU predictability.... but then they have FPD which is also total bullshit.

 

[ffdgh]

I sorta wanna see how far a powerful yet balanced cpu ammibo would make it now lol.

 

[Wyndstryker]

At this rate the new tourneys will be

Final Destination
No items
Fox Amiibo's only

Amiibo tourney at Evo, let's go

The year is 20XX, Fox Amiibos. Something something.

 

[Taramoor]

Team tourney, you bring an Amiibo (Amiibo must be unfed, and unequipped).

 

[BeatResetsTheWorld]

I actually haven't found the CPU to be that predictable, aside from their super obsession with only going after the smash ball when it appears. They're actually really good in this game. I still can't consistently beat higher level ones

 

[Salih]

So what's up with the Melee pro gamer crowd? Do they accept the new Smash WiiU as a legit tournament game?

 

[Jamie OD]

Amiibo tourney at Evo, let's go

Damn straight!

 

[blamite]

As soon as I started playing with my Kirby Amiibo the first thing I wanted was an online mode where you can send your Amiibo into battle against someone else's and just watch them fight and maybe cheer them on and give them advice or something.

Actually, that'd probably be a pretty kickass Pokemon game.

 

[Htown]

When is Salty Bet going to switch to an all-Amiibo lineup?

 

[DizzyCrow]

There is any mode for fighting amiibos online?

 

[Nanashrew]

Ya know, #Amiibo4EVO has a really nice ring to it.

 

[K.Sabot]

quiet so far from them outside of a few nopes and a bunch of "let's see how the game develops". Most people I've heard from streams seem to think that it'd be a good game with some updates.

 

[Son Of D]

So what's up with the Melee pro gamer crowd? Do they accept the new Smash WiiU as a legit tournament game?

Well it's only been out for 3 days so far. I'll imagine that Smash Wii U will get a year to see how the game develops and then decide on whether they should go back to Melee, to Project M or stay with U.

I imagine the Wii U might explode if this were to happen. Two level 50s...

 

[ChuyMasta]

Hah hah. That was rather entertaining

 

[Timeaisis]

I'd watch the shit out of an Amiibo tournament. Imagine the metagame. People training Amiibos to defend against the current trend in amiibo training. It would be intensely interesting to watch and develop as an esport.

 

[Akibared]

Time to level up my Fox!!!

 

[Luigi87]

Seeing the Fox amiibo placed behind the controller kills me, lol

 

[Vena]

I wouldn't hold my breath on expecting them to acknowledge it.

 

[Sylverstone14]

I bet my Samus could take it on, 1v1.

Reminds me to of the last south park episode

 

[OmegaFax]

Nope.

 

[jooey]

go to Spectate and pretend they're amiibos

 

[$h@d0w]

This is quite sad.

We're now paying for games we don't even play.

 

[Hot Coldman]

When is Salty Bet going to switch to an all-Amiibo lineup?

This is a Twitch stream waiting to happen.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I would seriously watch this. Someone needs to make this a thing, because it would be hilarious.

 

[TheLastCandle]

The Amiibo just hanging there with the controller in that pic is hilarious.

 

[Salih]

That's an a million dollar idea.

 

[wildfire]

Evo organizers better be honest and just call this "Pokémon Masters Championship" because Sakurai won't be.

 

[C00kie M0nster]

I want to see M2K's Amiibo.
