Day 6, Rick52 talks about Meta Knight. [A newcomer]
Day 6: Meta Knight
Series: Kirby Series
First Apperance: Kirby's Adventure [NES, 1993]
Last Main Apperance: Kirby: Squeak Squad [DS, 2006]
Smash Experience: Newcomer
Intro: Meta Knight is pretty cool. I mean, he looks like an evil Kirby... but in evil armor! First seen in Kirby's Adventure and really making a name for himself in Super Star, Meta Knight appears to be the quickest of the sword users in the game. He comes with some neat tricks as well that should make him an enjoyable character to use.
Standard B: Mach Tornado. Meta Knight spins, apparently at mach speed, to create a small tornado which does a fair amount of damage. Sounds like fun.
Side B: Drill Rush. Similar to Pit's arrows, you can change the direction in which you Drill Rush. I wonder how far it goes. It might make a decent recovery move if Meta Knight didn't already have...
Up B: Shuttle Loop. It starts off like Marth's Up B, but once he reaches the top, it seems like Meta Knight can glide to safety. From how I understand it, its a nice recovery though you might have to be careful as to how far you glide.
Down B: Dimensional Cape. Like Zelda/Shiek's Up B, you can warp to a different spot to screw with people (not so much recovery), but unlike Zelda/Shiek's Up B, you can attack immediately upon re-entry. Warp, slash. Warp, slash. Quite an irritating if possibly effective strategy.
Final Smash: Galaxia Darkness. Meta Knight's Cape can screw with dimensions, and with the Smash Ball in his hands, that cape will screw with you. Anything that falls into its range during Meta Knight's Final Smash is gotta get slashed. Hard. Well, not that hard, but its still gonna hurt. Plus it looks as cool as an evil Kirby in evil armor can make it look.
Other Notes: I haven't been able to confirm if he can fly or glide like Kirby or Jigglypuff can. I don't think so, as his Up B is recovery enough, and he doesn't seem as easy to knock away as the other two, what with the evil armor and all.
My Expectations: It's nice to see the Kirby Series get more representation, at least in terms of characters. Meta Knight should be a fun character to use.
