How do you guys deal with the hate that Corrin gets?

[Swamp Sensei]

I know that Corrin isn't the most popular Smash character out there. Or even the most Fire Emblem character?

That said, they definitely have fans.

How do you deal with all the hate and negativity thrown your way?

 

[OhMyBanana54]

Beat the haters with Corrin, or just ignore them. I love Corrin and I love her move set but not everyone does and outside of the context of a match, you just can’t let them get to you. Don’t internalize what they say just because they keep saying it.

 

[osby]

Focus on why you like the character. Find his other fans. Try beating up people with him. Remind yourself haters have too much free time on their hands.

 

[Merfect]

Some people can have legit criticisms for Corrin, like how Corrin was a 2nd DLC Fire Emblem character in Smash 4 or that they have problems with how the character is written in FE Fates. Situations like that can be turned into a discussion, unless the other person is purely hating on the character for the sake of it. For those kind of haters just ignore them, you can’t really change them.

Not everyone is going to like the same characters. What matters is that you and several others love Corrin whether it’s for his/her moveset, design, or anything else.

 

[Nah]

i've come to find in my old age that giving a **** about everything--especially things that you cannot change--is a waste of time and energy, and since i only have so much time and energy anymore, i have to choose what i do and don't give a **** about

something like people's dislike of a character i like is one of those things that, in the face of much more pressing issues in my life, seems rather silly to give a **** about

who you really wanna ask this question to is Bayo players tho

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Show the beauty of Female Corrin and tell them if they don’t love her they aren’t a human/dragon

 

[Deleted member]

I like using Corrin. I secondary her. And I really haven't come across much hate other then maybe 1 or 2. But I just ignore them.

 

[Altais]

I like Corrin as a character, and I like the fact that we got a Manakete as a Fire Emblem lord. Despite this, I'm simply terrible at using the character. I've tried maining Corrin, but his playstyle just doesn't suit me.

Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest is a challenging and well-thought out game, as far as strategy is concerned (can't say the same for Birthright and Revelation). That said, I'm glad Corrin is in Smash to promote the game. The storyline isn't as complex as those in previous Fire Emblem games, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Personally, if I've ever disliked a fictional character, it's because I thought they were poorly fleshed out. That said, I absolutely cannot stand Subaki. If there is one thing he is perfect at, it's being one-dimensional.

I absolutely cannot stand Subaki. If there is one thing he is perfect at, it's being one-dimensional.

And it makes things worse how he gets to have a child exactly like Cordelia (only makes marrying him to Selena/Severa much more painful)

The Caeldori and subaki support conversations were extremely hilarious

To be fair, I main arguably the most hated Smash character. Just play who you like, and don't let others change your thoughts on your favorites.

 

[Xevious 1]

I think the Corrin hate has died down a lot now that a new Smash game is comming. The reason Corrin was hated is because it was the second to last DLC character and it was from a series that already got a lot of love in Sm4sh.

If anything the character that she was revealed with that generated all the hype back then is the most hated now.

 

[hermes]

I didnt play corrin in wii u version. Im a fire emblem fan but I really dont like the new fire emblem. I am keen on corrin because he looks good! His attacks look great. I really liked his artwork in smash ultimate. Female corrin is lame though.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Simple, whenever I see Corrin hate, I roll my eyes more than the average For Glory player

 

[Mogisthelioma]

I main Corrin because I like her but I still hate the fact that she's in Smash.

Corrin was added as an advertisement. They made Smash a billboard.

But yeah I main Corrin.

 

[CostLow]

Mmm... I don't main him/her because I never bought the DLC but I could see myself maining Corrin in Ultimate since the DLC won't be needed. Don't care at all why a character is in Smash. I just care if they are fun. I think Corrin is the most fun FE character in Smash Bros so I won't hate. I think Bayonetta is a lot of fun too play as too so I don't care if she's broken. I'm gonna play my game and do so to the best of my ability. Everyone else can do the same orjust not play, still won't care.

 

[Kevandre]

She's fun to play as and unique. That's all I gotta say.

 

[hermes]

My bestie calls my corrin "borrin". His answer was a thousand side b's.

 

[Mogisthelioma]

I think insta pin is one reason why people don't like Corrin. A fighter added as an advertisement with arguably one of the best moves in the game won't add up to something nice in some peoples' minds.

 

[FartyParty]

Ummm, I've never encountered any hate for using Corrin so....

 

[PsychoPuff23]

The character sucks in fates because Corrin is dumb (same for chrom,lucina,daraen and roy).
Most people hates him/her because he was poorly written in Fates and was another dlc from fire emblem in smash 4.
The character is fun to play imo but he gets hated for a reason.
And also we have too much corrins in fire emblem heroes which don't help to

That’s not what OP was asking. The question was how do “Corrin mains deal with hate”, all if not most Corrin mains know the character is hated and why.

To answer OP’s question, focus on what you like about whatever character. It’s inevitable that someone will hate the character you use for whatever reason, just focus on the positive rather than the negative. Also beating your haters helps too.

Oop sorry im not a Corrin main BUT!!!!!


I like Corrin's inclusion now, especially now with the Marth Quadfecta. How we got to this place is beyond me. From the FE Character mess, I really only like Corrin, Ike, and Robin. Whoever stays from the 4 Marths I could care less for.

I've never played a Fire Emblem game at all, but I see the FE Spirits and Im wondering how all the really cool/amazing looking FE Characters got shafted to make room for 4 Marths.

Asura, Gangrel, Lissa, Garon, Sakura, Tsubasa, Tharja, Tiki, Leo, Hinoke, Cordelia, Caeda ALL look more appealing than Marcina and Chroy.

It’s because a lot of those characters are from the newest games in the series (minus Caeda and Young Tiki), and since “everyone is here” we gotta have all the FE characters + Chrom since Echoes are easy to make according to Sakurai.

 

[LIL ELF]

I didnt even know hating Corrin was a thing! Although I dont play Corrin very often, might be why I never got any hate

 

[Pippin (Peregrin Took)]

I remember the hate early on because “advertisement” and “ANOTHER Fire Emblem character/anime swordsman”, but from what I saw it died pretty quick. It became cool to hate on Bayo in Smash 4 instead, then the Ultimate character train caught everyone’s attention instead.

Thankfully I was so against Bayo being in (for personal reasons) that I latched onto Corrin right away. Delzethin’s initial analysis video helped too and I began to realize how cool the character is.

 

[Retr_00001]

Just ignore the haters. and then beat them with Corrin

 

[DDRC]

Fun gameplay bad character

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Challenge them to a match, and show them exactly how fun and unique they are

And if you're good enough, you can manage to beat them, and be able to act smug for doing so

 

[ILOVESMASH]

Really, its better to just see it as someone else's interpretation of the character. I never felt Corrin was a completely awful character - not even in his games - but can understand why others dislike him. The kind of hate both male and female Corrin get is just a large amount of legitimate criticisms, but most people don't really mind it if the character gets more exposure.

 

[Pokelego999]

I just say shes unique and like... one of the few unique characters. Then I say to them why they think Roy should stay if he's "a marth clone" when you cut Corrin even if she's literally the most unqiue out of Fire Emblem.
