As we near the holiday season it's good to reflect upon the fact that Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS released about two years ago! Many of our own Negative Worlders are still deep into the Super Smash Bros. scene on either system and some still play regularly on previous versions like Brawl, Melee, and the Nintendo 64 version. So lets take some time to reflect on the fighter scene and vote in a bracket to find out Negative World's favorite and best Super Smash Bros. character ever! Take in everything when considering your choices… the character design… the style of fighter… the move sets… anything that you see fitting.  The bracket will be divided into four segments as per usual. First we have the Hammer Bracket. Then the Dragoon Bracket. Then the Lip's Stick Bracket. Finally, there's the Smash Ball Bracket. I hope you all have fun talking about Super Smash Bros. and debating each character's strengths and weaknesses. Each poll will last roughly two days. This seemed to work just fine last time. With as many rounds as there are, it's important to keep things moving! A note about selection: If I were to consider every possible character alternate as a specific character, then we would have had way more than the usual 64 for the bracket. So concessions were made. Alph is combined with Olimar. The Koopalings are lumped into Bowser Jr. All three Mii Fighter types are also in their own single entry. So if you feel strongly for any of them, consider that when voting. The three Pokemon found on the original Pokemon Trainer character were split as Charizard is it's own character now and all three really did play differently from most other characters in the series. Everyone had their favorites! In doing all this, we ended up with 63 characters, also not the right amount. So that's why the wonderful Sandbag has entered the fray! It was entered in the list with the rest and then I used a Randomizing List Generator. It was randomized once and then placed on the bracket. First up is the Hammer Bracket, named after the powerful weapon of the same name. Whenever the hammer comes on screen, most people flock to it so they can have one powerful punch! Of course, watch out for the squeaky version as it might leave you un-protected! In this bracket we have some of the new DLC characters, some of the classics, and a wide array of franchises to boot! Funny enough, the Nintendo/Game Freak character who won the last Negative World Bracket is now in position one. Coincidence? (Yes, actually.) Who will you choose? (Be sure to tell us why in the comments along with your votes!)

. Plus I'm sure Link can use his sword to just bat those Hadoken's back at Ryu's face.
