Yup, EASY CRUEL BRAWL!! (for challenges and for fun!)

[LastReaper]

Hi, it first started when I found one challenge that seemed too tough... "Kill 10 enemies in cruel brawl"... I was like o_O. I tried it, but DUDE! These guyz kill you one shot with a strong side attack!!! And they're 5 vs you. So I thought, there must be a way to do it! (like evry problems in life...lol) So i tried many many things, and about half an hour later...... I COULD KILL HALF A HUNDRED BY MYSELF!! How, and with who? You ask? Well, here it goes...


Ok, I did it with Meta knight(I main him), but i'm sure you could do it with someone else(like kirby or w\e).

Now the goal is to bring 'em close to the edge of the battle field, and have fun seeing them diving for their own death!

You just have to go down the edge and stay at a point by doing jumps. ***The point must be just down enough for your up-B to reach the edge***!! It's like trapping mouses in a mouse trap! I tell you!!

So, at a moment where you'll be hanging around there doing midair-jumps at the same place, suddenly, some of them will jump at you (let them get down a bit...)! That's the moment for you to do your up-b!! Grab the edge, and wait for the ones that jumped to get suicided!***Try not to get hit on the edge, too!*** After that, you drop down the edge and repeat the same process over and over again 'till your satisfied!


It takes just a bit of practice and its pretty satisfying when you get it right! (if you can kill 10 of 'em, you'll get a useless sticker, and if you kill 5 of them...well I don't remember what you get, lol)


So thats it! If you have problems regarding this, just PM me, I'll be happy to answer you!



*I might do some other tips like that if I find some, so stay tuned*

 

[Komatsu Masato]

Heh. I like this already. I have got 7 maximum on Wolf before I get slaughtered, couldn't seem to get anyone to get to 10 for the Challenge reward.

Now I only have 3 challenge rewards left before I have the entire board unlocked.

 

[TiersAreReal]

You can do the same with Pit flying under the stage and grabbing the ledge on the other side. What I did was use Kirby and push backwards to fall backwards off the ledge and then Final Cutter spiking them on my way back to the ledge.

 

[ShortFuse]

Yeah, I just did it as Jiggly. I just had them chase me and i floated under the edge to the other side if grabbing the edge wasn't safe enough.

It's also how I did 15 minute Brawl.

 

[WarxePB]

I had thought of a really cool strategy involving ledge-Aethering, but I just couldn't get it to work right (Ike kept killing himself somewhat randomly). So I just used Pit, and caused 23 Cruel Alloys to suicide.

Yeah, I tried something like this too. I did upB, then drop->jump->uair->upB repeat. It was a pretty safe strategy but after 5 or so times Ike wouldn't grab the ledge with his upB and I'm not sure why. I made sure I wasn't holding up or anything after the first few times it happened. Wonder if they put something like that in to prevent ledge stalling. It doesn't seem to happen when I spam upB with marth though. Occasionally with marth I notice that I don't grab the ledge after my upB and instantly fall but I'm able to upB again, seems to happen far less often than this Ike thing though.

Yes,np!!

Congratz, really... (can't wait to have the hole board complete )

Oh and to evryone else, good tactics!! U can post em' here, idc!!

 

[~tgm_Zeej]

You could also use the LuCKy Stall with Sonic. Grab the ledge, then stall, grab the edge again, repeat.

 

[Chaosblade77]

It works, but I am having issues, not sure if there is a way around it. They tend to hit me while they are falling. Like I'll have to prepare to go back to the edge and as I do I get hit and spiked/footstool jumped. Good strategy though.

 

[LastReaper]

Thx but u have to make sure that u grab the edge at the peak of ur up-b. U can even let it do the loop.

 

[Jumpinjahosafa]

I did this a few days ago. Got 15 kills easy.

 

[IGN Forums]

must be easy!!

 

[Mario_ 101]

That mode sounds like a joke now.

 

[LastReaper]

Whos tactics have you used? mine? :D

 

[_Slick_]

Wait...what?

Aren't they light-weight? DK Down+B, man...

 

[6footninja]

ah I did this as MK too

 

[LastReaper]

Dude, it's cruel brawl, not 100 man brawl!! These guyz kill u one shot with a strong side attack! I'd like to see how Dk'll fare with only using his downB, lol. And no, they're normal weight. It's like fighting a bunch of mario, kirby, zelda and C.F. vs you!! And they're like 5 on you!

 

[pirkid]

Can you try to drop the ledge and shine-stall with Fox?

*testing*

 

[LastReaper]

Yes, maybe you could. But you could get hit and killed too, so be careful.

 

[Sub_7]

Why didn't I think of that... kudos for completing my challenge.

 

[Hikarihoshi]

Yeah, I did this before I saw this thread. xD I used Jiggly and did rising pounds and jumps to kill them. The only problem is those green ones (they have multiple jumps...) >_<;;;

 

[Revak]

I keep trying to do this but they keep footstool jumping on me.

 

[MajinNecro69]

Thanx dude, I got 11 KOs with Pit :D

Liquid Snake Sticker SUCKS...

 

[Senshuu]

I think I'm gonna try this. I don't think I ever even managed to kill one in Melee, let alone here!

 

[Bluerockworld]

I just peach bombed them to death. I floated off the stage and when they followed me I just kept bombing them! Since You gain some height from the attack she stays in place and she cannot be killed unless they attack into you, but that is what the vegetable is for. Or you could always just ^B to the other side, land on the floating platform to jump on the other side.

 

[TheMagicalKuja]

The music on that mode is so exclusive you can't even listen to it on the soundtest. That's what makes this Brawl cruel!

[mcnichoj]

Used PokeTrain (Charizard)
I just jumped off the ledge and performed two air hops I would then grab the ledge by using his recovery (possibly knocking people away who jumped off), I would then get on the ledge with a smash to knock them off/away and jump off and fly around the ones that fell off as not to get hopped on, then using the recovery again grabbed the ledge and repeated the cycle.

Definantly not easy nor really worth it, but meh...

 

[gnuf]

Im going to tell you the BEST WAY. So Listen up. I got up to 43 kills, then i got tired and quit.

Strategy-(rating from 1-10)
Difficulty: 2
Time Consuming: 4
Effective: 10

1.) Pick Falco
2.) Run to one side of the edge.
3.) Wait for the enemy to get close.
5.) Jump off the stage, try to get far (not to far, within reach of your side B to be able to pass almost or all of the enemy.)
5.) Side B right above the ledge, not clinging onto the edge. It will spike some of them. sometime 3 of them follow, making them die and one survive b/c only one can cling onto the ledge.
6.) Roll your way fast to the otherside.
7.) Repeat Step 2-6

Try it and you'll see how effective it is. It wont kill an enemy everytime bc they dont jump off all the time, but most of the time they do. you'll get 1-3 kills per min. anyways good luck.

 

[-sonny-]

That mode sounds like a joke now.

I hope you know that you could do this all in Melee as well ... =/

[chrisking570]

woot! I got a max of 13 kills without this method

but yeah, thats a good tip, nice one mate.

EDIT: it might actually be 12, not too sure atm. Still, im happy with 12.

 

[iluvnintendo1983]

I did it with Fox. Similar method. I just would jump out off the edge of the level, than fire dash back to the platform. The enemies will sometimes jump off when I'm in the air and fall to their doom while I dash back to safety.

 

[Norm]

Well lads thanks for the info i shall have to try this.

 

[Riolu]

THis worked for me. I'm glad someone figured it out, I would have hated wasting my hammers on those.

 

[LastReaper]

Thx u guyz for all the thx xD!!! Remember you can post all sort of strategies for this mode, its ok. So keep in mind that if you have problems, just ask!

 

[Yuna]

Sounds very similar to the strategy most often employed in Cruel Melee. "The new A.I. will give you a much greater challenge this time around!" my tuchas.

 

[FMArthur]

What I did is essentially the same, but with Kirby I used my uB when just above the minimum hight to Final Cutter the ledge, so that he comes down for a fraction of a second, exposing all of the airborne enemies near you to its meteor property. Same effectiveness, just faster kills.

 

[Shine-Fu]

I used a similar method to the ones described here, except I used lucario. Extremespeed is faster than the computer can react and attack you, so all you do is drop down, extremespeed up, repeat until they are all at the ledge. When they are, recovery hit, and about half will go off the edge, the other half will get knocked back on the stage. Chase the ones that got knocked off, and down air them when they try to jump. This gimps their recovery, and kills all but the green ones. when you killed all the non-green ones, fall straight below the edge, and extremespeed straight up, and repeat until you have your desired number of kills.

 

[=Samus-Aran=]

I did the same thing with Toon Link 2 days ago, I got 6 kills.

I'm going to try the 'float under the whole stage' with Jigglypuff tonight or tomorrow.
