Smash Bros Classic Mode - Tumblr Posts
I got my first Classic Mode 9.9 last night!

This was Peach's route. I had to use a ticket to continue with Master Hand and Crazy Hand, but thankfully, Bowser got me to 9.9 beforehand. King K. Rool was also generous enough to die to a lucky down-B Bob-Omb.
I'm still struggling with Daisy's route; I've only made it to 9.8. Zelda and Lucina are generally fine, but it's a rollercoaster after that. Rosalina is either super annoying, juggling me like there's no tomorrow, or I'm able to KO her in 30 seconds using the walk-off. I don't know how to manage Corrin's range yet, so she still scares me, but I can gimmick her with Toad and items. The Miis are a 50/50, either dying in rapid succession or ganging up on me with hive mind levels of coordination. And if I make it past the Miis with an intensity of 9.0 or higher, Peach goes sicko mode and does crazy combos that I don't even know how to do yet.
I'll get there. Eventually. I hope.
I'll probably take a break and go for the Palutena and Snake achievements in the meantime. They have lax difficulty requirements, so they shouldn't be too bad (even though I've never played as them).
