OCs in my Rivals of Aether?! More likely than you think…

Meet G.B.A, Game Blaze Adventurer! This crazy sane character has roots going back to 2004, with a unique history and a flair for excitement. From his quirky beginnings to his current fiery tricky persona, G.B.A is a character full of action, wit and an appetite for adventure.

Mr. Adventurer is a fast-paced, all-around rush-down style fighter, boasting impressive combos, aerial manoeuvres, and clever tricks. But beware, his true potential shines when he can close the gap and get up close and personal.

Ready for action and always with a quip, G.B.A might even relax with a nice long drink once the fight is over. …If he can get in close, of course.

How he got here...[gbascrib.webcomic.ws]

================================



Moveset Summary:
Up Special: Burning Axe Kick
Inspired by a certain 'Brawler', G.B.A leaps upwards with a powerful kick and comes crashing back down with a fiery strike. Whether you're looking to combo, edge-guard, or just style on your opponents, this move is perfect for all the right occasions.

What’s featured in Set A:
Neutral Special: Flare Ball Shot
G.B.A throws a fireball that stays grounded, making it perfect for gimping foes and setting traps. By holding your directional input of choice, G.B.A can either chuck the fireball upwards or drop it on the floor like a mine.

Side Special: Flaming Hot Kicks
Inspired again by a certain 'Brawler', G.B.A leaps forward to deliver a strong, fiery dropkick. This move is also great for stage recovery. If you hit the right hitbox, G.B.A flips backwards from the impact. While flipping, you can cancel by pressing the jump button. In the air, this move simply bounces him backwards.

Down Special: The Flame Sceptre
G.B.A pulls out his weapon of choice, the Flame Sceptre, to smash anyone nearby. If the target is far away, they get hit by a speeding flame. This attack can be charged like a strong attack, leading to a powerful explosive finish! And not just that, after spawning out the flame, this 'campfire' will cause any opponents that dare to stand or cross through the fire will deal -1 dmg and be inflicted by the status effect too.

Down Special (Air): Burning Strike
While in the air, instead of swinging the Sceptre, G.B.A drops down with a strong attack that ends with an explosive fiery finish! If you hit an opponent before touching the ground, G.B.A performs a spin trick before landing elsewhere to finish with an explosion. G.B.A can even bounce off the Sceptre's flame/campfire or spawn in another one if it doesn't clash with the flame’s reset timer.

Burning Strike can also be used in Set B as well.

What’s featured in Set B:
Neutral Special: Flare Burst
G.B.A creates an orb of fire and punches it, sending the projectile flying at a downward angle. When used on the ground, he creates a wave of fire that travels along the ground before disappearing, extinguishing immediately when it goes off ledges. If used in the air, the projectile descends like a meteor, transforming into a wave of fire upon contact with the ground.

Side Special: Flare Knuckle
G.B.A charges his rear fist and unleashes a strong lunging punch. This burst move hits multiple times and travels a great distance, making it an excellent approach and combo tool.

Down Special: The Power Sceptre
Instead of swinging the Sceptre, G.B.A stabs it into the ground, causing a fiery explosion. The explosion's size varies based on the charge time, with the largest explosion being a multi-hit blast. Unlike the aerial version of this attack, this grounded version cannot spawn a campfire. However, G.B.A can stab the campfire to create one or two strong projectiles for mix-up options. Depending on the charge duration, G.B.A gains soft armour, preventing interruption unless he takes significant damage or knockback.

What’s featured in Set C:
Neutral Special: Flare Sweep
G.B.A creates a field of fire around himself before throwing it away, transforming it into a swirling fire twister that moves toward his opponent like a traditional fireball. Holding or tapping the special button determines the distance the Flare Sweep travels before briefly idling. Unlike G.B.A's other projectiles, opponents hit by the Flare Sweep are sent upwards, making it a potent combo initiator and allowing for aerial follow-ups at any percentage range.

Side Special: Super Flare Fist
G.B.A dashes toward the opponent for a short distance, leading to a three-hit strike. The final hit varies depending on whether the opponent is grounded or airborne. Unlike G.B.A's other side specials, if you miss your target while in the air, G.B.A will enter a free-fall state. However, if you land a hit, you're free to follow up with any move you like!

Down Special: Cardboard Trickery
Special Adventurer Technique - Cardboard Cutout
Ever the trickster, G.B.A spawns a cardboard cutout of himself to counter any incoming attack. If hit by a projectile, the cutout deletes it and shoots out a strong fiery projectile in response. If hit by a physical attack, the opponent is flipped around in confusion. While holding the cardboard cutout, G.B.A has two options:
• Pressing attack or special throws the cardboard onto the stage.
• Pressing the shield button makes G.B.A leave the cardboard and dash away at high speed, temporarily immune to all attacks until he's out of the dodge state.

================================

Special Mentions:
Fiery Flare: G.B.A's Unique Fire Status
Unleash the scorching power of G.B.A's Fiery Flare! As you stack this blazing status effect on your opponent, the damage and intensity will ramp up, turning the battlefield into an inferno.

3 Flame Orbs: Once your opponent is ignited with three flame orbs, they’ll start taking damage over time, enduring a slow burn at a tick rate of -1 damage.

6 Flame Orbs: Crank up the heat! With six flame orbs, the damage tick rate doubles to -2, and the opponent will be caught in a burn stun, leaving them vulnerable to your next fiery assault.

Crouching Flame Jump
Get ready to elevate your gameplay with the Crouching Flame Jump! Hold down while crouching, and G.B.A will unleash a powerful higher jump, giving you the edge in battle.

The Final Smash buddy has that covered.
And making his Dire form work in Rivals would be pain. Same goes for the Paradox form.

will GBA get a Super form at some point?

I never thought I would ever see or hear from you again. I loved reading TheYoshiHerd on SJ and it's great that you stumbled upon this.

Thank you very much! :D:

TheYoshiHerd reporting in for the Smack Jeeves reunion special.
Sprite comics were a chapter of my life that I like to think I closed the book on as I grew older and started pursuing other creative outlets, like I "outgrew" it. Like most fanwork in my mind.
So, I never really understood the people who kept at it over the years. Occasionally I'd see G.B.A floating around somewhere unexpected but didn't pay it much mind. We didn't have a lot to do with one another on Smack Jeeves anyway.

But damn man, looking at this character, I finally get it. Slick animations, great handling, solid design fundamentals. Mad respect. I see serious talent and dedication on display.
If this is what you enjoy working on, and you can keep working on your craft, that's your art, man. Keep at it. I'll be keeping an eye on your work from now on.

I don't mind at all and thanks!
The patch I just uploaded should address those things you mentioned.

Here are my general reactions and suggestions after playing the guy a bit, hope you don't mind that!

I suspect fully charged Down Special should be tweaked a bit. Currently it's just pretty much like a weak full charge Strong with a bigger hitbox, making it a bit redundant. Maybe it's worth making the charge longer and the hit stronger, so it works kind of like Roy NSpec?

I also don't love the fact that G.B.A. changes property when burned himself, which is a very situational thing that will only happen if the opponent parries a fireball into you or you're fighting one of the other fire characters; maybe add another ways he can get burned by his own kit if your lore allows for that?

Either way I'm otherwise liking the character! When I first saw he's one of those characters with burn effect I was ready to roll my eyes, but the burn extending mechanic makes it worth it.

You mean the other characters? That's advertising. lol
Don't worry, it's optional.
idiot 10 ноем. 2021 в 17:23 
why do you need to get so much stuff for it to work
