SSB Brawl update: sticker power-ups for Subspace Emissary
If you happen to get your hands on some in-game collectible stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl after it has been released, we highly suggest that you take good care of them as they’re more than just for decoration.
These stickers are actually power ups which can be used in the adventure mode The Subspace Emissary. Know more about these after the jump!
The official Smash Bros. DOJO! website has just been updated informing every single Super Smash Bros. Brawl awaiting fan that the in-game collectible stickers have uses beyond beautifying your data files.
Accordingly, these stickers are home to several power ups that improve your character’s attack power, increase damage for fire-based attacks, and even keep you from flying too far when you take a hit.
At this point, note that the sticker feature is only good in the Subspace Emissary mode. So that players can maximize the potential of this particular feature, the Smash Bros. DOJO! website has provided the following information:
- On the Map screen, select the Sticker option to move to the sticker-application screen. You can switch between characters with the L and R Buttons.
- Generally speaking, the bigger the sticker, the more dramatic the power up.
- The more stickers you put on a trophy base, the more powerful that character becomes, but youÂ’ll need to consider your placement and sticker choices carefully as space is limited.
- When two stickers offering a similar power up are placed on a trophy base, only the more potent of the two power ups will take effect.
- So, for example, if you had [Leg] Attack +4 and [Leg] Attack +6 stickers on the same trophy base, the added [Leg] Attack bonus wouldnÂ’t be +10 – itÂ’d simply be treated as if youÂ’d only put down the +6 sticker.
- You should always remember to maintain balance in your sticker selections.
- Also, some stickers can only be placed on certain characters. Stickers whose range of usage is limited in this fashion are proportionally stronger when placed appropriately. Do your best to find a good place for each sticker.
- You can adjust the position of stickers until you choose to apply them, but you canÂ’t place stickers on top of each other, so youÂ’ll occasionally need to remove old stickers to make space for new ones.
- Once you peel off a sticker you applied, you lose it for good! So take care when you lay down your stickers.
- Also, for some reason, youÂ’re able to readjust the position of an applied sticker on its trophy base.
- So while removed stickers are gone forever, youÂ’ll be getting stickers left and right as you play – youÂ’ll probably find that sticker you lost again. And, if you only use stickers you have doubles of, youÂ’ll never lose one from your collection.
- Plus, as IÂ’ve said before, the higher you set the difficulty in The Subspace Emissary, the better your chance of running across rare stickers.
- Going back to a previously completed stage and cranking the difficulty up for a second run is a good way to round out your sticker collection.
- But if you should die and find yourself at the game-over screen, be prepared to lose half the stickers you collected.
- Finally, remember that stickers are only of use within The Subspace Emissary. Sorry to say, but theyÂ’ll be of no use to you in standard brawls.
