Dr. Melee Mario
The Doctor is in!
Dr. Melee Mario, The Pain Prescriber, has arrived to the land of Aether with his PhD in combat.
The well known and beloved Melee Mario has returned, and with better use of education he has learnt how to use Megavitamins in unique ways!
NSpecial: Megavitamins
The doctor throws a Megavitamin from his endless supply. Each one sends a different angle and does a slightly different amount of damage. They are thrown with a special kind of RNG that prevents you from getting repeats until cycling out every other color. After throwing 6 Megavitamins, a new order is randomly selected. You can use Taunt to cycle to the your next Megavitamin while skipping its usual cooldown.
The Megavitamin work based on the following pattern:
Red Pills send IN.
Blue Pills send OUT.
Yellow Pills sends UP.
Different colors Megavitamin do more damage.
Same color Megavitamin do more knockback.
Fspecial: Super Sheet
Just like this move’s smash origin, you can reflect projectiles and turn your opponent arround. While the sheet doesnt have a vertical boost like Mario’s cape, it does lower your gravity slightly while its active. Use it while starting a jump to gain even more height!
Uspecial: Super Jump Punch
This move has 3 hitboxes: early, middle, and late. The late hitbox is the strongest and in order to get it you need to land the early hitbox. This move behaves like Luigi’s Super Jump Punch: you need to connect the sweetspot to get the full effect,it can be considered a pseudo-command grab. The middle hit is the weakest and only comes out when the early hitbox is missed.
Dspecial: Dr. Tornado
This move behaves relatively the same as its Smash origin. The thing to note is that you can hold or mash to gain more height, mashing actually gets you slightly more height than holding.
You can interact with your own Megavitamins with your Specials and Strong attacks:
Special Attacks:
Fspecial: Launches the Megavitamin forward while reversing its vertical movement and speeding it up. Knockback is increased.
Dspecial: Final hit makes the megavitamin bounce and linger for a little while. Increases both damage and knockback.
USpecial: Early hit sends the Megavitamin upwards with reduced gravity. Increases Damage. Landing the first hitbox on the megavitmin counts as hitting the move, so you can use this to catch people off guard with the late hitbox.
Strong Attacks:
Fstrong: Stuns the Megavitamin in place. Charging the strong attack increases stun time. Increases both Damage and Knockback.
Dstrong: Makes the Megavitamin roll on the ground. Charging the strong attack increases its rolling speed. Increases Damage.
Ustrong: Sends the Megavitmin soaring upwards! Charging the strong attack increases the launch distance. Increases Knockback.
