Naruto actually borrows a voice clip of luffy if u listen hard when he first jumps.
The voice is just deeper.

No, its in the intent to make them feel bad and demoralize them that makes it disrespectful. Not only that, you switched your character to ditto them, so the intent is super clear too.

If someone feels bad because someone started dittoing them and they think its for the intent to "demoralize them" they honestly should like go outside and not play fighting games. Maybe the other person just wanted to ditto them lol

Back to topic, is Naruto's upthrow used at all? I don't even know what it looks like. :p

Not really, I hardly ever use it. I might use it to refresh my moves than sometimes. It does not KO or have any good follow up options or none at all.

@Dragon
I wouldn't call it really trolly.

My intent is not to make them feel like absolute s***, but its to make them see that they are not as good as they think they are and make them mature a little.

When I see someone taunt after taking at least one kill or I kill myself, even if the person who is taunting is losing the match, I see that as the most disrespectful thing anyone can do. At first it can be funny, but after a while it gets annoying to the point of disliking the other player. I am okay if someone was able to three or two stock me and maybe gv or whatever two stock me, than I am find with that and they truly deserve to taunt. However, if the match is very close and they kill me when we are both at death percentage or I kill myself, than I don't see a reason to taunt at all.

When Joey beat me the other night, I was salty and I wanted to fight him again. However, he showed good sportsmanship by not taunting the entire match and playing his character wisely so I didn't stay salty for long. I like fighting people who are respectful and I show them respect back, but I will not tolerate people who think they are the s*** after they can get one stock off of me if they are losing, even if I kill myself or if they really clutch the match out.

Sorry for my rant.

Meh you can think of it however you want.
The up throw is trash tho, doesn't kill, doesn't allow follow ups its p much useless.

Yeah, up throw is pretty much useless. Maybe you can use it to buy time for charging Rasenshuriken? >___>

Jab rasenshuriken

Interesting. I wonder if it'll work in Beta, with Rasenshuriken's stun Nerf and all.

That's what I do.

@Doof
I do agree it shouldn't last as long as it should. However, during the initial start up is fine.

I'm learning how to play him and honestly I wouldn't be the least bit mad if they changed his projectile to a shuriken or something else then slightly buffed one of his other moves. I feel like the clone grabbing you and throwing you backward is a little bit much. Though its nice for combo's.

If it makes you feel any better the dev team is decreasing side-B range to make his zoning game more tolerable. But his current side-B is way more innovative then the shurikens of v.5 though. You can use clone toss to drag people back towards you and then fair spike into a jab-reset/tech-chase ect. This is much better then the straight up spam of early demos. It help's Naruto be more of a unique character rather then a generic Falco Diddy kong hybrid.

I had no idea he had a different projectile back then. Also, that does make me feel better that they're doing that, I just feel bad sometimes when i'm forced to use it because people make approaching difficult. Rage quitters, haters, etc.

You mean meteor smash.

A Falco Diddy hybrid?

@Derk
Yeah a lot has changed for Naruto. I know how you feel sometimes.

Also your profile pic goes with what your saying. That Satsuki pic is so hilarious.

Dang, I had no idea they were doing this, I thought the stun nerf was the only thing that was being changed. How'd you find out about this?

There was quite a bit of Naruto gameplay on the Apex Stream
