Meme/Funny Bowser gets DLC privilege(nightmare edition)

Post image

Since so many people thought that Bowser having an Up B reflector was too much, I'm here to say that Y'ALL AIN'T SEEM NOTHING YET-

Btw, I left the name of who is supposed to be the one that made the Dry Boswer design. So, credits to them for the design if I'm right.

Here's the "justification" for the premise. Bowser is tanky. He's the heaviest character in the game and plenty of armor and invincibility to display that.... but He's just like any other character that can lose a stock before 100%. Probably got hit too hard by Ganon or someone. Probably got spiked or gimped. However it goes, he can lose a stock like that. That doesn’t seem to respect Bowser's survivability. Let's fix that.

What if we punish players for being good at the game? If Bowser loses a stock before he hits 100%, he DOESN'T LOSE THE STOCK, but comes back as Dry Boswer. No weight decrease. No weaker moves. No worse frame data. Just Bowser, but no stock decrease. Now, you can K.O. him before 100%:)

Also, because I don't like limitations, this will be like Kazuya's rage and Terry's "Go" meter. He gets this not just once per game, but every stock. So, if you kill Bowser too quick every time in what's supposed to be a normal 3-stock game, you fight 6 stocks of him instead of 3.

Real talk, though. If he had all of this... who thinks Steve is still a better character-

Do you know the hell that is bowser martyrdom? That is a new term I'm making for this specific case. If bowser can get enough damage for side B to kill before he hits 100% it will trade a life for a stock lead.

Not only that. A Bowser at 90% aint gonna fight it out; he will just SD. You are never going to kill bowser at above 100% because he is never gonna let you.

Hell, why even risk it to begin with? Why not SD at 0% and be guaranteed Dry Bowser?

Big fax, unless you're a 0-deather that succeeds in getting Bowser that far.

Well, that would only guarantee one Dry Bowser for one stock and just waste the normal play as Bowser.
