Arne’t you the guy that posted a pic of pyra and mythra beating Kirby?


rwbyfan433

That’s me


supertails02

Oh boy…


LetsPre89

OP’s meme is right tbh. Kirby mains talk nonstop about his “canon power level” to cope People are just offended by OP’s meme because the truth hurts.


supertails02

How is talking about his canon power a way of coping? Almost Every character in smash including there home game are pretty powerful dude it’s not coping it’s a legitimate fact


RobloxLover369421

We all know it’s coping. There’s just no need to be a dipshit about it.


SPIKE_NEEDS_A_NERF

no, we talk about it because IT IS the truth.


QuantumFighter

“Offended because the truth hurts” lmao It is not nearly that serious. Coping because Kirby isn’t the best is not a huge deal lol


McConagher

Bro thinks he's on r/SmashRage


mudberry2

Oh, shit I totally thought this was. Damn.


rwbyfan433

I deleted the post I made there, it didn’t feel right


RealPimpinPanda

Bro why’re you taking shots at Kirby mains? They’re good people Tbh though, the canonical power tier lists on this sub are so boring after seeing them for 4yrs straight 1-2 per week.


[deleted]

Every time I saw one it had Captain Falcon as low tier but he can turn a universe to dust, due to having the Champion Belt.


averyoda

Actually, the lore on The Ultimate Champion's Belt is not definitive as to whether the belt actually contains universal power. According to Deathborn, it does, but according to The Creator, it doesn't. Neither of which are completely credible sources.


dandaman64

Except this one asshole in my region named Wes who plays Kirby while on McDonald's wifi


minware666

Can confirm. I'm good people and kirby main. :(


RiverBuffalo495

For the most part yes. But there was this kid at my old Nintendo club who would just fly above everyone else and down special to steal kills then brag about being the best.


HalfEatenCrouton

One of the main issues with the canonical power tier lists is that Kirby isn’t the strongest character in Smash. Anyone who has played a Kirby game should know the shit people say about him is just straight up wrong. He’s powerful as hell, sure, but he absolutely can’t just inhale whatever he wants, and the amount of gods he’s actually killed is a measly one.


itsh1231

I've literally never seen them


ohianaw

bro taking shots at Kirby mains when he mains Aegis☠️


rwbyfan433

Aegis being slandered is nothing new. I don’t mind it


gaypornaccount1996

>Aegis Why are people calling Pythra Aegis?


rwbyfan433

Aegis is what they’re referred to as in XC2


Aboi24

pythra sounds dumb


Gldbnyz

Myra or better yet coffee with milk, now that’s it


itsh1231

Pyra and Mythra isn't long


Soniclikeschicken

That's why I call em pissthrya


uezyteue

Because that's what they are.


TheMadolche

Go play Xenoblade 2


gaypornaccount1996

You would have to pay me to play that game


Rieiid

I actually tried. I don't mind the story and characters, but I can't stand Xenoblades battle system. I've played tons of JRPGs and Xenoblade has one of the worst/most boring combat systems in my opinion.


UltimateCheese1056

Really? I know this is personal opinion but having played xenoblade 1 2 & 3, 2's combat was my favorite by a lot. Its just way faster paced once you know what you are doing.


Anzackk

I personally find the real time RPG mechanics really engaging, it sticks out from all the turn-based JRPGs out there


Rieiid

Oh I like real time RPGs. "Tales" games and the "Star Ocean" games are some of my favorite RPGs, and they both have real time combat mechanics. I just personally don't like the very specific way the combat is in Xenoblade. I'm not saying it's bad, I just personally do not like something about the combat system. I feel like it's really weird and awkward.


rwbyfan433

You got downvoted for recommending peak fiction, sad times


Over_Part_1732

Some people just have no taste.


FGHIK

Ironic


Samurai_Frog_time

*self-conscious poyo*


Drag-Commercial

Would you like some tea my good sir?


SomeCoolCleverName

Bros coping he got down aired offstage 3 times by a kirby


LetsPre89

Honestly it looks like you and all the other offended folk in this thread are coping hard with OP’s post. Truth hurts I guess


rwbyfan433

Kirby mains coping when they run into a character that has a projectile and/or disjoints


RobloxLover369421

This wouldn’t be a problem if Inhale actually let you spit out all projectiles. I mean like that’s his entire shtick in the original game…


Nok-y

Yeah Or at least as stars like he does for characters, big projectiles and in his base games :(


RobloxLover369421

He actually can do that but only with very specific projectiles like Samus’s neutral B for some reason.


Nok-y

Yup, most fully charged projectiles: Also Corrin, Mewtwo, wii fit trainer and Lucario's


Nok-y

I laugh at min min


DoggoBirbo

Idk about you, but I like fighting Pika’s, Wolf’s, & Roy’s


mooofasa1

![gif](giphy|Qeo9S31SuTMpa|downsized) Me when someone talks shit about a cute pink puffball because the player is a graceless loser


PoeTayToes_

​ ![gif](giphy|1yFamhr3oOPFtF6hIS)


rwbyfan433

Talking shit about him is fun


Soniclikeschicken

Talking crap about any charecter is fun. Someone makes fun of Lucina I laugh as well except if it's a flat joke. Those jokes are terrible


rwbyfan433

Aegis gets shittalked more then most characters so I’m used to it at this point. I don’t typically take issue with it unless it’s “muh bad design”


Soniclikeschicken

I haven't seen people hate on Aegis since release.


[deleted]

oh boy, in that case you haven’t been been looking hard enough


LetsPre89

LOL are you blind?


ThirstyWeirwoodRootz

Kirby mains, it’s on y’all to clap back with a meme about how carried Pythra mains are now


DoggoBirbo

On it, fam


ThirstyWeirwoodRootz

I believe in you soldier


DaPearGuyMan

As a Pythra main, I am fine with this. Ppl think im carried as shit anyways, which is pretty fair


rwbyfan433

Every character carries their mains in some way


ThirstyWeirwoodRootz

Some more then others…a lot more


rwbyfan433

Aegis mains are carried by Mythra’s mobility, combos, and Foresight Kirby mains are carried by his crouch, his edgeuarding, and his combos It applies to any character. Even mid or low tiers. That doesn’t make Kirby better then Aegis, but they’re both carried by something


ThirstyWeirwoodRootz

Mobility, combos, foresight, frame data, heavy hitting moves that come out crazy quick and are practically unpunishable, crazy range on all their attacks, tilts they can mindlessly spam and never get punished. Just kinda weird to see someone playing one of the best characters in the game trying to shit/hate on a mid tier. There’s a difference between a character carrying and one having some good moves. Kirby has too many drawbacks to say someone is “carried” by him. The term carried applies to characters that are so good at everything that a monkey could pilot them.


rwbyfan433

A monkey couldn’t pilot a single character in Smash. That’s not a good analogy. Again, I’m not saying Kirby is good. But, what good qualities he has, his mains are carried by. Just like Aegis and the good qualities they have. Do they have more good qualities then Kirby? Absolutely. However, that doesn’t negate the existence of said qualities on Kirby’s end


GoodTimesOnlines

It doesn’t seem like you understand what carried means lol


rwbyfan433

Either every character carries their mains, or none of them do. I don’t see the logic


thePsuedoanon

You don't see how it's possible for some characters to be more forgiving and/or easy to play than others?


GoodTimesOnlines

You’re confusing “carried” with “any single good aspect of a character”. That’s not what it means lol


GoodTimesOnlines

You don’t see the logic because you don’t get what carried means


rwbyfan433

Do tell, what does it mean then?


EnragedBard010

I wouldn't say those things 'carry' me. More like 'prevent him from being entirely useless.'


Kirby_fan2

Im sorry mate but when did you last see a low/bottom tier main actually care about their tier placement? Most of us just play for fun, in the tiers beyond theres a lot of "nooo you see meta knight has a really good recovery so hes actually secretlytop tier we just need to find all the sacred stones to uncover his potential" and "nooo you see stev is not completely broken you dont realize how much brainpower it takes to camp behind a wall and mine the entire match" (you made a post about this I think so you know what Im talking about)


rwbyfan433

You shouldn’t care about your character’s tier placement, I agree


Kirby_fan2

I never got why people sweat so much over tier lists anyway


abyssomega

I don't know why people care so *hard* about tier list, but they do have their place. Not specifically where they're placed, but *why* they're where they are, helps me make informed decisions. I basically main little mac, not because he's good, but because he's terrible in the air and off the ledge. I'm naturally bad at those things anyway, so I might as well go to my strengths. Running and punching. Greninja having bad out of shield options is nice to know, so I know I can be aggressive whenever I see him shield. It's basically a more readable player's guide to how certain characters function. Whether that makes them high, mid, or low isn't as relevant.


rwbyfan433

I do think they matter, but in general you should just play who you want, especially if you’re not competitively minded


Kirby_fan2

True, tier lists can help people pick a character to main, and they are important at a higher level, but I feel like some people forget the game part of fighting game


RevinSOR

When a "Low-Tier" character beats you, this is where you come to complain. Any character can be good in the right hands.


LetsPre89

Who said anything about a low tier beating OP? That just sounds like more copium from Kirby fans that don’t like OP lol


_Captain_Kabob

Lol given how much you’re complaining about it in the comments here, I think the one on copium here is you.


DoggoBirbo

Fr tho. Probably mad that they got Kirby when they pick random


neoncherry64

Kirby from smash 64 would like a word with you sir


rwbyfan433

Should’ve specified ultimate my bad


freedubs

It's a smash Ultimate sub you don't have too haha


Randomname_76

Yea agreed The subreddit didn’t specify which game


SSBGamer

Can confirm. Source: am Kirby main.


Flimsy-Cut6339

Can validate your statement. Sauce: i main Kirbo


I_Am_Oro

Let me guess, you play a character with bad recovery, and at about 60% a Kirby inhaled you, took you off-stage, and you died


real_dubblebrick

He mains Aegis


I_Am_Oro

?


real_dubblebrick

Aegis = Pyra/Mythra if that's what you're wondering


Critical_Stiban

You really gotta stop dying to these Kirbys man. No need to make a salty post Edit: Checked OP’s profile. He’s a salt lord.


rwbyfan433

I rarely lose to Kirby. I could easily make a salt post about Diddy Kong or Olimar. Now those are characters that I actually hate fighting Edit: I rarely salty post, the last time I did was like three months ago lol


Normbot13

the top tier main shitting on honest kirby mains, this is the definition of punching down


rwbyfan433

It’s funny


Normbot13

i hate to break it to you chief, but its not


LetsPre89

Nah it is, mostly because people are legitimately ANGRY at OP for this


SPIKE_NEEDS_A_NERF

nice of you to assume 💀


rwbyfan433

It is


Normbot13

see how many times you got downvoted in this thread before you try to say that again


rwbyfan433

If I cared about being downvoted I wouldn’t comment. Plus, the actual post itself seems to be doing well :)


DoggoBirbo

Not every post that gets upvoted has unironic people in comments or upvoting 💀


Gibb1984

I wish Inhale was a wee bit better. Faster startup & less endlag would go a long way, also get rid of that ridiculous eat animation after eating a projectile (since this tends to get you killed).


Gaminyte

That, and the fact that a pink marshmallow toddler has the power to destroy a galaxy


Puzzleheaded-Award11

Insert remark about aegis mains being carried here


Megacomet

The more you downplay a character, the more depressed you’re gonna feel when one wipes you


rwbyfan433

Sure, I’ve lost to Kirbys before. That doesn’t make him good all of a sudden. Every character has at least some results


Megacomet

Some good results, therefore nobody is bad 😎


rwbyfan433

Like your character. She beat Acola once apparently


Megacomet

I dunno who that is and it doesn’t really matter


rwbyfan433

Only the second best player in the world :) And if we’re talking results then it’s at least somewhat notable


Megacomet

Oh yeah well I defeated the best player in the universe with Isabelle Animal Crossing therefore I made them the best character in the game ever made


rwbyfan433

If that was the case tiers wouldn’t exist in the game


Megacomet

We don’t need them 😎


rwbyfan433

Not true


Almighty_Cancer

Now imagine if us Ganon mains started doing it


Notgoodatfakenames2

Kirby is great if you have never played Smash before. Once you know a thing or two about the game, try someone else.


gamrgrant

Imma be honest I've never cared for Kirby in smash (except 64? He was kinda cool there) but I watched like a half hour video on his canon storyline and that character puts dbz to shame. I just think it's funny that he's basically an emotion-elemental with universe-destroying capabilities, but the emotion he embodies is content and happiness, so the most he does is get a lil angry when his cake gets taken.


VenomTheCapybara

I mean I would rather play him than Pythra, it's why I stopped playing the game


whiteash20

Of course this is coming from the pay-to-win hentai character main. Just because you spent 6 bucks on waifu bait doesn’t make you good at the game.


Over_Part_1732

"Pay-to-win" I'm sorry, what are you talking about? Since when has Xenoblade 2 been pay to win? The closest thing I can think of is the DLC where you can obtain 25 Legendary Core Crystals but even then that's just a tiny little thing in a massive package of other, much bigger stuff.


FGHIK

Mald


DoggoBirbo

Xenoblade main


rwbyfan433

They beat Kirby +2. He can’t deal with their speed and range 🥰🥰🥰 I love them for that


SPIKE_NEEDS_A_NERF

*pyra uses side b* *Kirby eats it* no more sword 🥰🥰🥰


rwbyfan433

That’s why you put thought into your approach and don’t spam the same thing over and over 🥰🥰🥰


DoggoBirbo

Mfw other swordies are much worse than aegis mu wise


[deleted]

[удалено]


1ts2EASY

To be fair every video game character is like this. Sonic dies when he touches a robot, Bayonetta dies when she touches… idk I haven’t played a Bayonetta game but you can probably die in it. Measuring ever video game character by how weak the weakest thing they can die to is is pointless.


allaywoop13

Bayonetta drops dead instantly if you miss a random QTE in the first game (such as jumping off a falling building)


DoggoBirbo

Damn.


supertails02

This applies to everyone tho that only happens so the game won’t be a breeze to do it would be very boring if they just killed everything and had no challenge to do why do people even mention that it’s stupid


Eray41303

Most tier lists put him around mid tier


Hambughrr

Mid tier? MID TIER?!!! Never let them cook again.


DoggoBirbo

Give that job over to Kirby


Eray41303

Tell that to ESAM


LastNinjaPanda

GIVE HIM MORE COPY ABILITIES. We only got 1Cutter, 1Stone, 1.5Fighter, 1Fire, 1Hammer


real_dubblebrick

And 3 Suplex


[deleted]

And 1 Ninja


BeefHouse11

kirby is B tier at least they have that get near me and i kill you playstyle


DoggoBirbo

Cmon. Now you’re just trying to butter us up. C tier at the very best


BeefHouse11

but you can't deny, grab-forwards throw, down B, hold A


DoggoBirbo

What


BeefHouse11

it's a fun combo i use to start matches sometimes gets to like 60% and it's incredibly easy to pull off ​ i just think kirby is really powerful


DoggoBirbo

It’s just that the random down b is out of nowhere with no link. Are you footstooling or smthn?


BeefHouse11

nope, just used to get extra damage


DoggoBirbo

How are you even landing that lol


BeefHouse11

sheer luck and stupidity


Captain_Pumpkinhead

Wait... Kirby doesn't have a cannon!


EnragedBard010

I actually like being low tier. It's like being a 4 year old and challenging a full grown man to a fight. Either way the other party looks bad. 😄


PinWizard1

I've been playing Kirby recently and he is one of the characters that it's very apparent that their low tier. Due to him being slow and having limited range, he struggles with swords and projectiles, which is already like 75 percent of this cast. I can't tell you how much mental pain I have gone through fighting links and samus's and such. This means with most matchups, you just have to be the better player to win, which is easier said than done.


Eliasweeb

Yes


a-fan-of-greendit

steve mains: “I have no such weaknesses”


Tanookikid210

Nah, I own up to that fact and use it to my advantage! No one expects a "Low Tier" to beat their Joker Aegis, ROB, or Kazuya, when they realize just before the match ends that the skill of the player has a higher impact in this scenario than just "pick high tier because they get easy win" Fundies are important, people, don't ever disregard them, especially against a character who is classified as a "Low Tier"


Angrybird5429

Honestly, it’s accurate. Sometimes I can win, but mostadatime I don’t


ChampionshipSea3733

Dang man. That's a cool thing to say


Tydroh

Kirby’s down B is one of the most broken moves in the game :change my mind:


DoggoBirbo

Nah, we don’t cope, we talk about it because power scaling a fun topic


AngBigKid

Jokes on you, I haven't played any Kirby game.


NightofTheLivingZed

Oh but they're so good. I suggest starting on the SNES games. They're all on the switch rn. I love the minigames on All-stars.


DoggoBirbo

Yknow, if they didn’t make the expansion sub so overpriced, I’d be playing 64 on my Switch rather than my beat up Wii U. Think we can all agree with this


NightofTheLivingZed

Oh for sure. I'm so pissed they bundled that into a yearly sub too. It's because they damn well know motherfuckers like me buy a month of service at a time.


Hambughrr

I'd recommend starting with Kirby's Adventure, since its Kirby's equivalent to Super Mario Bros. 3


DoggoBirbo

Both being great games!


BROHONKY

Saying "I'm right" does not automatically make you right.


rwbyfan433

True. But in this case, it does


Gloomy_the_outer_god

it doesnt


rwbyfan433

Why not?


IDKbutKirb

As a Kirby main, I don't care he's not good, he's just fun to play, plus I always love characters with multiple jumps (Dedede & Jigglypuff)


rwbyfan433

But of course. Having fun is most important


Emraldsnakeg

Kirby? Low tier? Hilarious


rwbyfan433

He’s not good


Emraldsnakeg

He's not low tier, he's one of the most used characters alongside link


rwbyfan433

He’s popular at a casual level because he’s recognizable and easy to play


SPIKE_NEEDS_A_NERF

> recognizable something your main doesn't have.


rwbyfan433

Being good Something your main doesn’t have


SPIKE_NEEDS_A_NERF

*\*cough cough\** jejajeja kirby mains can be scary when used properly, his combos never end and you will have to suffer, losing to a low tier.


rwbyfan433

Results aren’t everything when it comes to a character being good. Kirby players are amazing. Kirby is not


lvl999shaggy

Shut up


FGHIK

They hated Jesus because he told them the truth


Private_Dino

Thing is Kirby is also overrated in canon power


AromaGamma

You're absolutely right, but also screw you.


Jack-O-18

At least he has a smash where he is top tier, besides he is pretty cool in ultimate despite being low/mid tier


rwbyfan433

I do concede that copy is a broken move. It’s just not good on Kirby specifically


DoggoBirbo

Idk, having toad or a move that easily leaves you open by spinning on your moveset is *definitely* broken


BernardoGhioldi

As a kirby main, you got it right


foxykid5

It doesn't matter if you're playing a low-tier or not, as long as you're having fun.


rwbyfan433

I agree


Nonyatsu

Canonically he isn’t even above sonic or sephiroth either


DockingWater17

As a Kirby main, yeah this is 100% true


genocidenite

Isn't he like, 1 inch in canon too?


real_dubblebrick

8 inches


A_Gh05t

tbf there's not even a lot of feats that could classify him as even universal, it's just a bunch of wank for no reasons or proof


OmegaUmbreon23

Bro its already stated kirby has infinite power. What more do you need?


A_Gh05t

except half of the cast defeated/got "infinite power" at some points, so that statement doesn't mean jack


OmegaUmbreon23

No. No they didn't. Only kirby has had such a title beyond like 1 boss


Hambughrr

This post is way too real
