    I'm only doing so because I've already set a whole blowout with friends for Friday night, so I at least have to have some of the guys they really wanna play, otherwise I'd just play it as it lays

    Actually come to think of it, we're gonna be playing several hours of versus, and you're supposed to unlock a character every 10 minutes, so nevermind on all this, I'm just gonna do whatever I want

    Exactly! It'll be exciting for the roster to open up as ya'll play. And you start with 8 choices anyway right? I still remember the excitement of new character unlocks in melee while playing versus, with all the pressure on 1st player to slay whatever new character it was.

    one of my friends just exclusively plays Link

    not Young Link, not Toon Link, only Regular-Ass Link

    so he'll be set no matter what

    Those 8 arent who I like though.

    I need meaty older men , little anime sword boys, and Goku as a pokemon.

    Apparently
    You unlock Cloud pretty late in the World of Light campaign. That's unfortunate

    I'll probably unlock via classic mode the characters that don't unlock through vs, or unlock super late that I know people want to play or are new.

    We'll play enough over the weekend to get the rest.

    I don't know WHAT I'm gonna do first

    I have to try and unlock as much as I can, but I'm not gonna go the Brawl route and ruin my experience with the game to do so

    There's a spreadsheet available of what it takes to unlock each character, maybe I'll just prioritize some really important ones (Incineroar, Isabelle, Little Mac, Snake, Richter) and then just take my time with World of Light

    Posts like this and some of the things I've seen on reddit almost make me sad. Just play the game ya'll! It's ok! It will still be there! You probably aren't going to EVO, but you probably ARE going to have a lot of fun! This game isn't even set up to have any real bullshit unlocks like Melee Mewtwo anyway, you'll get everyone just by playing relatively rapidly, and if you are somehow the person that honest to god finds the game unplayable without whoever is last in that chain...well, maybe loosen up a little there are like 70 characters, and the base game is fun with most anyone! Trying new people is fun too! Press buttons and stuff happens!

    Sorry, that's much less at you and much more a rant at a culture of having "fun" optimally and it just gets really frustrating when what I and I think a lot of people would really want is to just recapture that spirit of unguided play that we had when we were younger, rather than the empty carrot chasing of unlocks.

    I hope you love the game and get all the unlocks you want quickly <3

    What if I do go to evo and other majors and locals doing things optimally is fun to me

    My day 1 plan is getting everyone unlocked as fast as possible both to practice and because I have 1v1s to grind with friends in the area on Monday

    My list of potential mains is imperfect because, haha, it turns out I love using Little Mac and catching people with USmash just before they hit the ground

    There's a certain kind of player who begins to slowly go mad when they can't land, and it is my goal to be the person who brings them to that place

    I think the changes to defensive options might make this one slightly less hostile toward little mac so that's cool

    I never went to EVO, but I bought a friend a steak dinner with my winnings one time.

    That was fun.

    the final smash is a team of lawyers from The Tetris Company issuing a Cease and Desist for using their IP in a way that is nonstandard with the official rules of tetris

    I would green light a Tetrimino if the Z block form (eg: it's aerials) was weak.

    It does, usually? It is the earliest time zone in the US so it is the one folks use because otherwise you have folks on the East Coast waiting until like 3 AM
