Here it is guys, lets figure out what is different! Changes will only be added to the OP if they have a) sufficient evidence [i.e. video comparisons or frame data], b) Multiple sources confirming, c) Direct comparison to v1.0.3 or earlier, or d) You are Dantarion.

Let's do this.

KEY
  • Any values labeled as red is a nerf
  • Any values labeled as light green is a buff
  • Any values with no colour is something that can be considered a nerf or a buff
  • Striked out values are from last patch
GENERAL GAMEPLAY CHANGES
  • Preliminary results show that VECTORING MAY BE REMOVED AND DI IS BACK IN THE GAME
    What this means: More intuitive inputs for veterans, EARLIER kills and MORE COMBOS (possibly)
  • DACUS removed (to clarify: this is NOT a Usmash while running which is still possible)
  • Roll cancelled pivot grab timing has been tightened significantly

I wonder how many people knew Greninja could cancel ALL of his aerials with shadow sneak and not just dair, effectively baiting out shield grabs.

It will be missed.

Is it just me or has Nosferatu's hitbox gotten bigger?

So... What you're telling me is that Greninja was Dante all along?!

Bowsercide confirmed to kill himself first before the opponent. Ganon's remains the same, killing opponent first.

Was it because people spammed Bowercides or is it because Koopa Klaw comes out faster than Flame Choke making it easy to spam? So, if people spammed Ganoncides, would a new patch just revert both to the originals of Bowser/Ganon killing themselves first?

Spamming Ganoncides isn't as easy or as efficient as spamming Bowsercides. Flame Choke is a huge risk to make when Ganon is off-stage, whereas Koopa Claw is a less risky option for Bowser since you can decide whether to suicide if up a stock, or rather just use it to stay on stage and gain stage control.

Patch out

Sheik Bouncing fish has been nerf or mario weight has been massively improved. It use to make the kill effect appear on mario when he stood on the edge at 111% now it's 131%

I'm going to break something, excuse me.

edit: From the limited data I collect before, the knock back at 0% has been drop from 38 to 33.

Confirmed, Bouncing fish nerf.

edit2: Uair nerf, kills roughly 26% later.

edit3: No buff to her other kill moves... although fair 'seem' to have less knock back now....strange.

Greninja's Usmash now has to have the whole animation finish before he can act.
His shadow sneak no longer cancels aerial lag.
Instant downwards shadow sneak is no longer possible.
Hydro pump windbox appears to have been reduced.
FF Uair follow ups are no longer reliable. The vacuum knockback is weakened and only on the very early parts of the multihit.

I'm pretty sure sonic's d-throw and f-throw did 6%. Now they do 7%...\o/
They both do 7% in 1.0.3

If anyone wants me to test kill %s or damage %s in 1.0.3 I can, as I kept the old version to compare with people for at least a day.

Endlag was increased, yeah. Before, an input could be made before the animation was entirely over. As for now, you have to wait until the water swords are put away before any input can be done.

Luma's respawn timer has been extended from roughly 8 seconds to roughly 13, but this was already expected.

Projectiles can now be neutralized by normals/tilts.
If they could before, I sure as heck did not notice because Tink's sideB was too busy hitting me through my ftilt/jab.
The hitboxes are still dumb and way too precise, but it's a great, great start for low mobility characters (a shame that they didn't just carry that property over from Brawl in the first place).

Also, King Dedede's dthrow sends people straight up.
As if it weren't awkward enough getting his stuff to combo.

Rosa stuff: (Tested mostly by me, write up courtesy of Xaltis)


Rosalina:

Upsmash knockback decreased

Dtilt hitbox reduced

Nair damage got a slight nerf in percent it does.

Grab got a cooldown increase

Down Smash cooldown increase

Forward Smash Slight start up Increase? (We couldn't get a 100% for sure answer on this)

Nair knockback is decreased

Luma:

Gains 15 more HP (Edit: This is wrong)

Shoots a shorter distance with fully charge Luma shot. (Which is better)

Comes back faster when you call him back.

Luma shot got cooldown decrease.

Can still break grabs.

Doesn't do anything that the Wii U help tip says about him.

On stages with walls that go all the way down. (Yoshi's Island Brawl, and other Omegas) if Luma doesn't make it back to the stage with his 3 jumps, he will fall to his death, but on stages with these walls instead of dying, he glitches back to the middle of the stage.

As in do you mean landing on the ledge of a platform/stage with 'sliding'/momentum shifting moves no longer cancel?
Yes Sheik wont slide off the stage/platform anymore. Diddy still seem to work though.

edit: yeah I notice needles seem a little off as well @ Dabuz Dabuz I just couldn't put my finger on it though.

edit2: Oh and funny enough you still don't need to VI to escape fsmash -,- I swear to god Nintendo.
edit3: and utilt still does not combo into it's self. ~sighs~

Peach's turnip farm glitch is still in, instant turnip ledge canceling is out. I personally know a few Peach mains that are crying somewhere.

Misc stuff: Sheik needles have SLIGHTLY more cooldown, ftilt might have slightly more as well, can confirm ledge cancelling is gone along with everything else tristan mentioned.

Diddy's side-B grab has less disjoint.

Will post as I find more stuff.

Edit 1: Sheik fair does 1% less damage.

Ness dthrow does 2% less damage.

Edit 2: Roll boost grabbing and pivot roll boost grabbing are gone.

Robin's thoron jump refresh removed.

Little mac's multihit jab does slightly less damage.

Megaman's and Pikachu's frame one rush coil and thunder are both removed.

Can someone confirm for me than landing lag item tossing is gone?

I compiled a list of changes to ZSS.

Stuff I am sure of:

- Side-b now connects properly (first hit always launches into second hit if you're close, though you still get some weird rogue hits on the outer part of the whip). Total animation time is reduced heavily, making it safer.
- Fsmash is now faster to recover and thus safer on block. By how much I'm not sure.
- Down throw launch angle changed slightly; the opponent is now launched less horizontally and at lower percents a little bit lower.
- Same change for down tilt; the opponent is now launched less horizontally and at lower percents a little bit lower.
- Close range down smash is better on block. By how much I'm not sure, though in testing it seems I can jab before the opponent can drop shield (like brawl).

Less sure about:
- Fsmash's angle of KB seems different, more horizontal instead of a corner KO angle.
- Up b seems to connect better in the air. (now with more "probably for real this time™")
- Zair ledge tether range reduced

- ****ing bugged:
Up-b's KB doesn't seem to be staling at all.
Luv u

Well my character got nerf pretty hard with no buffs, ZERO feel better buffs.

Now all I can do is sit back and laugh at the misfortune of others.... yay.

edit: I'm not going to post anyone more in this thread, don't worry.

There have been changes to custom moves as well. ZSS' custom moves were quite bad and there have been quite a few changes to them.

ZSS:

Paralyzer -
- Blast Shot can now be fired before it is fully charged, but incurs normal landing lag (was way lower before )
- Spreading Shot now deals 10% damage (up from 6%) and lasts long enough for ZSS to get a follow-up (wore off before ZSS could even move before, weird)

Boost Kick:
- Impact Kick now properly absorbs the target so that the final hit connects properly
- Lateral Kick now allows ZSS full aerial movement during special fall

Plasma Whip:
- Whip Lash got the same buff as normal side-b: less animation time, so safer on block and more follow-ups.

Flip Jump:
- Low Flip travels faster across the field (?)

Are you or Sakurai crazy? You're telling me they BUFFED zero suit straight up? bar zair recovery (which is kinda big I guess, I found it's size a bit excessive).
I dunno what to tell you, except that ZSS was a little overrated by most of you. She's good, solid, but maybe not even top 10... probably not in fact. She's high tier but a lot of her moves just weren't working right and her shiny new fsmash was terrible.

EDIT: Seems the change to her paralyzer was applied to all of them. You can now release it before it's finished firing. Baby paralyzer travels less distance now though.
