<Standard Special Move: Paralyzer> Bzzzzzzzzzzt! I can’t get enough of this.A personal protection device, the Paralyzer stuns opponents. If you can charge it up for a bit, you can land additional attacks while your opponent is stunned. A down smash will fire it at your feet!But this is only self-defence at best. It does not have the power of an explosive attack. Where and when you use this is key.
What really brings out some characteristic Samus skills is when this gun transforms and releases a whip: the Plasma Whip.<Side Special Move: Plasma Whip> The flash at the tip of this short whip is quite powerful!<Up Special: Plasma Wire> Shoot it straight up to pull enemies towards you!These two moves can be used to grab and hang from an edge. They can reach even if the ledge is pretty far away, so pay close attention to distance and timing and aim to dangle from the edge. Pzzzzt! What a magnificent edge grab! |

Yeah we already knew most of it.
But it's nice to see Zamus's character page grow a little.
Last week was fantastic so I didn't expect anything big tonight. Though... a character is likely... so come on Falcon!

It's nice to finally learn ZS Samus's special moves.
Captain Falcon will probably come at the end of the week.

Looks like DiU's role on getting all of the Updates Right has just ended. But for Da Robot, It has just began.

Admittally Thores also predicted ZS Samus would have a special moves update this week. But he did not state a day of the week for it to fall on.
Tommorrow's going to be a long shot though. Hopefully one of the two is correct.

I'm not so sure about her standard B move. It seems kind of lame to me. And her down smash being the same as her standard one, doesn't fill me full of enthusiasm for the character either. Hopefully, her Final Smash move will be something special to compensate.

I'm guessing down B will be her fiddling with the gun like in the second trailer, maybe changing it from stun gun to hurt gun.
Not a very spectacular special moveset, but I still think ZSS is a gimped character you can only become after using Samus' overpowered final smash. I think it's pretty alright for a character like that.

It looks like all of her special moves are about keeping her alive as long as possible, rather than dealing KOs. She's way more defensive than Power Suit Samus.
Honestly, it wouldn't make sense for Samus to become MORE powerful when she takes all that gear off... but I know that's a dumb thing to point out.

Yes. Down smash, not down special.

I got the impression that by 'down Smash' it actually meant pushing b then pushing down could make it aim at your feet rather than straight ahead as usual.
Personally I find total confirmation of what the tether recovery B^ does is quite interesting. So it has no vertical movement? Interesting.
And now we no for sure that she isn't a Sheik replacement, too.

Must say it's about time. I got the impression that by 'down Smash' it actually meant pushing b then pushing down could make it aim at your feet rather than straight ahead as usual. Yeah, that's what I thought too. |

Hm. It says that you can charge the Paralyzer's attack, so perhaps smashing down while charging could unleash a downward attack? Or perhaps it's a standard Down Smash. We'll just have to see. At any rate, the moves are fitting. Gives her a Scorpion-esque feel being able to yank enemies to her.
