Whats your favorite copy ability? I like Bell, Mirror, Ninja, Beetle, and my favorite, Hammer. (That’s my top 5 in order.) And also sleep, it’s so good
The one from Crystal Shards (I think it's a combination of Lightning and Spikes) that makes a twin-bladed sabre.
I haven't played Kirby for a long time, but I can remember that I liked the ability where you could transform yourself into a fireball and crash into your foes. (You needed to inhale something which looked like a Wheel)
That power was actually Lightning plus Cutter. Lightning and Needle turned you into a lightning rod, which was a very meh power, useful in very few situations. And the double light sabre was indeed a fun power, though I preferred the Lightning and Rock, giving you a giant boulder as a yo-yo on an electric tether! I've gotten used to a lot of the classic powers that have evolved and gained special moves based on doing precise combos, like Sword, Fighter, and Beam; though Hammer is also very helpful against most bosses. My favorite of all though, that must be Mirror from Super Star and SSUltra. Between looking just like Marx, having a better shield, and so much maneuverability and sustained damage output, there's so much to love.
Oh yeah, that's what it was. I haven't played it in so long, I can't remember what the combinations are...
My top 5 are Smash Bros, Mirror, Artist, Bluster Cutter, and Circus. Smash Bros is multiple abilities in 1, and mostly just Kirby's Smash Moveset. Mirror and Paint were favorites of mine in KSS and KSSU, and Artist is like an upgraded Paint Copy Ability. THe Bluster Cutter Friend Ability has a longer combo than normal Cutter, and then Circus was what I used most against bosses in Triple Deluxe.
That Ability With Leaf, Mirror, Beam, Sword, Water, Ice, Star Rod, Galaxia(?) And Super Ability. I Have Only Played Canvas Curse And Mass AttackBy Emulator.
As many people may or may not know, I have been pressing through Kirby: Planet Robobot recently and almost have the game completed. (The True Arena has been the only thing standing in my way, and a truly worthy foe indeed.) And considering I have sampled quite a few Kirby games, I think I can say what some of the best are. As such, while I do love some more classic abilities such as Sword, Wheel, Wing, and Fighter, particularly their modern iterations because of their massive QoL improvements, but quite a few other abilities have encapsulated me from the newest games. Abilities like Archer, because of the Camouflage BS, or ESP, because of Vanish, as well as that nuke of a counter in PK Insight. Plus, the Robobot Armor has given me a ton of reason to love abilities such as Cutter now, surprisingly.
My top 5 would be: 5) Suplex/backdrop: It is rather rare but it is super fun to use against certain bosses in Superstar. Beetle sounds like a similar thing but better, I havent played the games its in though. 4) Ice: The sliding animation for movement is so dang cute. But yeah freezing enemies and kicking the ice cubes around is really satisfying. 3) Fighter: So many cool moves, feels like a proper fighting game! 2) Rock: When in doubt, Rock. Helps against pretty much all bosses, is neigh invincible and all the humor they are able to add with the different statues is definitely a plus. 1) Fire: Ah a classic. I have very fond memories of playing superstar with my bestie in grade school and being enamored with the Burning Leo enemy. The animation for his hair when he moved around looked so pretty! Plus the ability from him provides good damage and stylish fireball movement This is of the games I played which are: superstar (all versions, I love that game), the amazing mirror, Return to Dreamland, Planet Robobot. I also played Dream course though I am terrible at it.
My favorites are Stone, Archer, and if we're counting Dream Friends, Marx, Magolor, and the Three Mage-Sisters. That's basically it, and I apologize that I lack good taste in abilities and Dream Friends.
As for myself, I gotta pick sword, beam, cupid, and UFO. But to be fair, I only played Kirby & The Amazing Mirror back then. Also @Jeydis, I gotta agree with Rad. Your images are broken on my end.
