Little Mac

Oh yeah, he also has a bug where his hurtbox gets misaligned when doing a star-powered neutral special after hitting neutral air. Thought I should also point that out.

- His star mechanic is unique and I love it, though I feel like the timing of inputting both attack and special at the same time to use a star is too strict being frame perfect, so maybe increasing the input window to be 3-5 frames would help that a whole lot.

Overall an amazing character that needs some minor tweaks, but he's really good and I thank you for making him playable in rivals. :)

After playing him a bit, here's my overall opinion on what can be changed about it (I know it hasn't been updated since 2023 but hey, a man can dream):

- With his buffed up aerials giving him access to some insanely good combo game, it makes sense for him to no longer have armor and still have a bad recovery, so people complaining about that are probably people who mash smash attacks in smash bros
- Down special is a good idea in theory, but pretty awful and situational in practice. Maybe giving him additional invincibility frames on a successful spotdodge so multihit's and lingering hitboxes don't hit him even if it was technically dodge. The extra invincibility frames would also let him be able to do his flurry of punches counterattack much easier, since it feels near impossible to do mid-match.

I wish when little mac had the stars, and you did the button combo to use the stars for down Special, you would turn into giga mac. that would be a fun easter egg imo

I wish his tech from smash was in this game. On the surface he looks like a near perfect copy other than his grabs being gone (they’re good for the occasional mixup but not too sad about it being gone) and the change from meter to the stars but playing him just felt so off. Why’d they take the super armor away from the smash attacks? Why can’t I slide cancel into ftilt? Why’d they give him a dodge instead of keeping his counter? Why can’t I air stall with dtilt and then use up special for the special added height it brings? It just feels like they nerfed him just for the sake of it without actually knowing what made him great in the first place

or is it just that with more stars he deals more damage

star uppercut?

Spot dodges in SMASH are better than his.

How do you star punch

USpecial is busted because of the sympathy between both Uair and USpecial. But I do love using a 2 star punch to have that insane air mobility to kill my offstage opponent from the other side of the stage.
