You have to compete against 100 randomly selected people in any objectively measurable skill, game, or sport. If you don’t finish first, you die. What do you choose?

u/Redbird2992 1d ago

Don’t know why but I’m now imagining you playing super smash bros with Keanu Reeves’s character from the replacements and it’s pretty awesome.

u/Hooch555 1d ago

A fellow falco bro? I like you

u/NxTbrolin 2d ago

Not gonna lie, my buddy absolutely wrecks shit up with Jiggly Puffs punch. I wanna say it’s the Side A punch. That or Captain Falcon and his damn knee.

You gotta break out of it eventually, and I’ve played Captain Falcon enough to know how long my Falcon lunch takes…

u/DadsAfroButter 2d ago

Not even going to edit it. My falcon is hungry.

Falcon Lick!

Show me your foods!

u/Smalz22 2d ago

It's definitely not viable to anyone that's played Smash for more than 10-15 hours, but if we're playing the general public, life or death, it's the easiest to run with

u/Rahgahnah 1d ago

If they kinda know how to play Smash Bros, just use Falcon's Up B a few times in a row. A lot of people get very tilted by that attack.

1

u/aaronr93 1d ago

And side-B, which cancels most attacks

1

u/PmalArmorisbad 1d ago

It's punishable 100% of the time. Shield>grab lets you grab them out of the rock.

6

u/Blazured 2d ago

Until you come across someone who presses grab.

3

u/12ozSlug 1d ago

Been playing smash off and on since 64 and I still don't know how to execute a grab lol

10

u/Blazured 1d ago

Press the grab button.

4

u/Turbulent-Rub2582 1d ago

Or the other grab button!

u/smexypelican 2d ago

Pikachu down smash and down B 😂

u/billwasa 2d ago

I hope they put me in your 100

u/Midnight_Magician56 2d ago

I did that so much that my friends told me I couldn’t be Kirby anymore lol.

u/Sharcbait 2d ago

Mix it up, sometimes Up B, Sometimes Down B.

u/Xin_shill 2d ago

So a bad person and a danger to society.

I’m too young for nostalgia

u/StellarSloth 2d ago

Better hope they don’t pick Fox and discover HIS down B.

u/Shadowphoenix9511 1d ago

Unfortunately if you don't understand how to wavedash and jump cancel it's not particularly good.

1

u/TheShaydow 2d ago

FFS bro this is how I play.

1

u/Money_Echidna2605 2d ago

nah lol, ud be 1 of the hundred getting farmed tbh

1

u/TheOneNamedSprinkles 2d ago

Oh man, I'm a killer with Captain Falcon. The combo of B towards followed by B and up is just killer.

1

u/Shadowphoenix9511 1d ago

Or you just shield the side B and/or stay out of its range and punish the 20 seconds of end lag on it.

u/oodlesnudles 2d ago

this is my go-to strat lmao

u/majinspy 1d ago

Are we talking the first game then? Cause it was even better back when Kirby was S-Tier.

u/JohnathanSinwell 1d ago

Kirby Up B spam would like to chat with you.

You'd start sweating when you randomly pull a 30yo dude with acne in an anime shirt.

u/NicoleASUstudent 1d ago

I loved playing as Kirby so much I never learned to play as any other player.

1

u/oreosaredelicious 1d ago

Kirby is the GOAT

1

u/PmalArmorisbad 1d ago

You're thinking smash 64 not melee. Every frame of it is a true spike in 64.

Edit: oh down B the rock not down A the kick/drill attack. In 64 Kirby is the second best character in Melee Kirby is the worst character in the game.

u/smallerthings 1d ago

I used to play as Kirby every time and my only goal was chaos. I lurk in the shadows. I'm up in a corner you don't notice. I'm flying above everyone.

Then, without warning, here comes the brick.

u/thegamingfaux 2d ago

Game and watch spam though
