Latest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate patch makes final balance adjustments to the game

akdsl.png

With the final DLC character being added to the roster, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is officially complete, in terms of post-release content. Now, with all those additions being made to the game over the years, an update has just been released that makes the final balancing adjustments to each of the characters.

Why don't they just fire Sakurai and get a team to keep updating the game?
The quality of smash will drop if/when Sakurai leaves the development team for good. You can love or hate the guy all you want, but I simply cannot see any other dev putting as much heart and soul into smash bros as Sakurai has.

And that, my friends, is based.

Bruh, I need to wait until the next smash just for the hope of having a kirby above the low tier. He is trash since melee and they are buffing links, cloud, inkling who are already good enough. I really don't understand this balance team and probably never will.
