Wario needs to get covered eventually seeing as how he has basically gone from people not really understanding him and saying he was bottom tier to high tier (was this just because Futile proved it otherwise or did Wario just start winning alot all over the place?)

wario wasn't just futile. futile and plan 9 started winning a lot, and 50% of the snake mains in socal switched to wario, now wario is not only considered good, but played by a lot of people

Mk is destined for top tier. Despite the lack of killing power, how can you deny his amazing reocvery and near unbeatable air game? His speed assures that no one will be able to (effectively) projectile camp as well.

Further, he is the owner of the unduisputable best taunt it the game. "Fight me!" Epic.
That taunt is pretty sweet...

I love his down b, especially when you add an attack onto it, because you can get an easy approach and attack in the same move.

MK all tha way!

I also can't wait for marth to be on this, good idea SBR!:):):chuckle::chuckle:

I'm starting to wonder who they'll do soon and who they seem to be saving for later.

It seems to me that at first they did the ones that people were praising as "ZOMG TOP TIER" within the first week or so of release, like Metaknight, Wolf, and Snake.

Now, it seems like they're doing the contraversial ones, or the ones that people thought were really good at first but seem to be realizing some of their major flaws, like Dedede. Using this logic, I'd say that Pit and Ike are due for writeups somewhere in June or July.

And of course, who are they going to save for last? My guess is that it will probably be Mario, seeing as he's always been looked upon as the "standard, all-around character" in every multiplayer game he's ever been in.

Don't call Carlos Mencia a comedian, its an insult to comedy.

On a side note, I didn't know DeDeDe's bthrow does that much damage =0

Good post, waiting for the next one.

omg almost a week late >_>
will it be a week from the time the hint is released? i hope not :(
Don't worry. It won't be.

It'll probably be two weeks. :p

I don't think we can count on it being weekly anymore. It would be nice to have a rough idea when it will be changed though
He said he's coming up with a hint. The Broom doesn't exist to appease you. They have lives. So they're a little off schedule. You gotta roll with the punches.

did I say that they should be making it on a strict weekly schedule? no
I said it would be nice to have a rough idea when it will be updated, even if they say it won't be for 3 weeks

If you think that is what I am talking about then you completely missed the point of the posts you quoted.

We know the hint is coming out, we are speculating on the how long of a guessing time we have

Its finally up. Sorry it took so long, but I've been a bit busy.

For this hint, I've tried to make it much more vague. The last 2 hints were inadvertently difficult, and last week's hint I meant to purposefully make people think it could be Ike. But too many people were able to get D3 over Ike. Hopefully this hint will prove to be more of a challenge for ya'll. Its tough to write good hints ^_^''

Update #11: ?????[/SIZE][/U][/B]

Strong at close range with a great long range game and a surprisingly decent ability to KO, this character has had a lot of potential since Brawl was first released. But what happened? It seems like this character hasn't been holding up in tournaments, with a few exceptions, despite having only very few faults. Perhaps its because much of this character's strong points are situational, and very match-up dependent. This character has a few strong match-ups (watch out DeDeDe), but has to work hard to keep up with some other characters.
Gotta be Toon Link or Zelda. id put more weight on zelda though

At first I thought it was Olimar, but it seems more like Toon Link now. He does well at both close and long range and has quite a few good KO move. He hasn't doing all that well in tourneys because he hasn't been completely figured out yet. His strong points do depend on his match-ups, as some of his match-ups like Metaknight are tricky for him because his strong points aren't that useful.

So yea, #11 is Toon Link.

This seems like Zelda. She has a great close game and long game, but many of her moves can be outprioritized, and Din's Fire doesn't work as well on smaller characters or characters that can absorb it. It does, however, work through Dedede's Waddle Dees. She's also a character that a lot of people think should be really good (see SDM's character ranking thread), but hasn't really been placing well (see Ankoku's).

I don't think its surprising that zelda can KO, her moves have a lot of power behind them

Pit is my guess, followed by TL
