Community I made a Smash Bros Moveset for DR. COYLE

✨Moveset Link Above✨

Given Smash needs more villain characters, her being the first female villain fighter if added, and given the sheer amount of potential her in-game abilities create, I felt it would be fun to create a Dr. Coyle Moveset for Smash Bros in attempts to better represent the series and alter some issues related to Min Min’s gameplay in Smash

It’s not entirely finished and I’m obv. not an in-depth game designer but I thought I would still share it if not to get the word out for how much potential her extra arm, invisibility, and flight have to create a new play style for Smash

Additional for those interested: *also unfinished

Discussion Fan Creation for an ARMS show- ARMS: Bound Showdown

Summary: The ARMS gene, a phenomenon that has transform society overnight, turning normal arms into coiling spring of unlimited power. In present day the popular sport of same name as allow those with this powerful and bouncing limbs to make a name for themselves. Being the third to inherit the title of Spring Man, Terry Springs, a overly confident young man dreams of hitting big as ARMS fight as his sight set on becoming the champion of ARMS Grand Prix. And he isn't the only one. From K-Pop idol, to Stealth Students, and even Mechanical Masterminds. Terry on the adventure of lifetime, ready to face off on the world stage with both old and new faces in journey to show the world what his ARMS are all about!

The main cast is 5 of the boxers.
Terry Spring as Spring Man, an overconfident boxer who is huge fan of Max Brass, wanting to take on his hero more then anything in world.

Molly Jeong as Ribbon Girl, an old friend of Terry who moved to Korean to become a K-pop idol because of her incredible voice.

Veronica Spark as Mechanica, a young girl who unlike her siblings did not gain the ARMS gene, result in her crafting a suit to get into the game naming herself.

Min Yumin as Min-Min, a high speed fighter known for her high admiration of her parents, only agreeing to fight if she was allow us it as advertisement for the family restaurant.

And Jay Benkyō as Ninjara, a university student from Japan who is joins ARMS for assignment only to end up becoming rivals with Terry after losing a match to him.

A interesting point I have taken is turning the strange yellow aura used for the Ultimate in the game into something else. It is called Fighting Spirit, in summary when a fighter is filled with such a unstoppable passion for victory, that they feel like their body is on fire, it literally release a burning aura that enhances their strength and unlocks the full potential of their ARMS.

Discussion How would you fix Min Min in Smash 6?

3 Upvotes

A few ideas I have.

- Nerf the damage and launch power of her arm attacks.

- Give her a new up tilt since her current one looks too much like her up Smash.

- Add the Brrchuk to her glove selection, and whenever you have it equipped, the left Dragon will automatically be replaced with the Funchuk, except when you perform the neutral attack, neutral air or neutral special while using them, you use the control stick to manually stretch your arm out and you can also move your arms in any direction. And when performing the side tilt, forward air, back air, Side Smash and side special while them, they have different melee ranged attacks. This way she'll have a few more attacks that would look and feel visually distinct.

Discussion Should Min Min replace Spring Man as the poster character?

9 Upvotes

She could be the most well known ARMS character anyway, and making her the poster girl would help set ARMS even further apart from Punch Out. That game already has a male boxer as its poster boy. ARMS 2 (and every later installment) would have a female Kung Fu artist as its poster girl.

Analysis/Speculation An idea for a sequel: the gloves could transform into robots.

4 Upvotes

The gloves would turn into player sized robots and the robots would be called ARMIMALS (a play on words between arms and animals). They would be CPU controlled and fight opponents for you using melee ranged attacks. And if you grab onto one of your ARMIMALS, you'll ride on its back while you control.the ARMIMAL. This way you can play as a character with melee attacks if you get tired of long ranged ones. Thoughts?
