    You know, I was convinced that tonight's update would be fuckawesome, I refused to believe the handicap thing. But it's true. "Meh" doesn't even begin to cover it.

    On the other hand, it is pretty cool that you can start a match at whatever damage.

    Thank God updates are at 11 now. I can claim tomorrow's as my birthday gift if it's awesome.

    Sure. Just ignore what the date actually is.

    Force Nintendo to use another terrible update to show its disapproval of your conception. (Hopefully we'll actually get an awesome update tomorrow
    as Nintendo's way of celebrating that it's not your birthday.

    Be kind to beginners! If all you do in brawls is beat up people who don’t know left from right, they’ll never understand the rules of the game, right?

    So until now, I’ve always made sure to include handicaps in each game in the series.

    But, I began to think that there isn’t much thrill in just making yourself weaker, so I changed the system.

    various12_071114a-l.jpg

    First, find the Handicap option on the Rules screen.

    various12_071114b-l.jpg

    Then you’ll see something new.

    various12_071114c-l.jpg

    Click-click-click! Ratchet up the handicap.

    various12_071114d-l.jpg

    You start with your initial damage meter boosted!

    various12_071114e-l.jpg

    Even when you reappear.

    The strength of each character doesn’t change, so then you can show your skills to your opponent!

    Also, you can use this not only for handicapping, but also for starting all players at the same damage—it’ll give you matches with a slightly different feel.

    Now, I’ve also kept the auto-handicap feature. This gradually increases the starting damage for the winner of the match.

    various12_071114f-l.jpg

    Choose the Auto setting from the same option.

    I'm going to go ahead and point out that he used the same phrase (いままで / Imamade - "Until now" or "So far") to describe handicaps being in each game in the series so far that he used to describe Ness being in the series so far.

    Wow, cruelest title ever. Why did tonight need to be so disappointing after the promising delay?

    I guess the old handicap system is outdated anyway since you can set the knockback ratio already, so I guess it's nice to see a slight change...but not at the expense of an awesome update.
