    1. What I really love is that we had the goated subspace squad and then after Brawl, Mario, Link and Kirby are the still only ones left fighting alongside or against other characters. I miss the subspace emissary so much 😭
    2. Fun Fact: Remember when Snake's Codec for Ice Climbers mentions a "Blood Bond"? In the Japanese version Mei Ling says "funkei no majiwari" which translates to "A Friendship to the death" (Also beheading is canon to Smash Bros. cause in Chinese it means "to cut off one's neck") Read text for context.
    3. Meteor Smashes are quite dopamine inducing in my 3D Smash Inspired Project
