probably one of the best and most detailed combo-type characters i have ever seen

thank you! glad you like him
i'm not planning to work on mods for rivals anymore however, i've been shifting towards full on game dev for a while now so i don't have the time or will to go back

even then i'd rather do more things than just sonic characters/creepypastas lol
but green mountain is pretty cool

Best Sonic character in RoA so far imo.

Btw what you think of what you think of [Sonic (End) / Green Mountain Sonic]? If you decided to make him that is.

you do have far/quick tap nspecial and uncharged fspecial to do the same thing though

i felt like the old fair boost kinda made those harder to justify in the kit which is why i thought about changing it

since sonic is a character that rewards combos (with boost mode), giving him a move that combos for him is a bit counterintuitive imo

I agree with spirex2009. The forward air was great for movement and and in some cases, recovery. Very fun to use before.

Still is a great character I have main him since he came out

Could you give him Atleast a bit of momentum or something in between if not could you make the the enemy doesn’t fall down the attack at high speed (if it’s not possible is ok)

honestly i kinda got used to the new one and i actually quite like it, since you could just quickly double tap nspec for the same boost

so while the old version is on the super sonic abyss rune i don't think i plan on bringing this back but eh, you never know tbh

could you bring it back the old fair momentum it was very fun to use and a great mobility option

glad you guys like him btw!

thought i should point out that i did actually try to do a mockup of the soap shoes on sonic before but i felt like it's barely noticeable compared to his regular shoes

my favorite mod, i pretty much use sonic every match. i know it's not likely to happen, but i'd kill for a soap shoes variant.

This sonic feels like how sonic should have been in smash bros. and if I’m being honest, this is by far my favorite sonic to use in rivals

it should transition from the old lord X to the newest version if you're in a timed match
otherwise it just uses the more common version of him

I've seen there's a lord X variant, how do you get the actual old lord x one? i've been playing with him and winning, and then out of nowhere the next round i was a dark-color lord X.

Bar-Kun, thanks for letting me know. Its not too big a deal, I was just mainly curious since I noticed it was harder to start combos without it. Nevertheless, great mod.

thanks VB, i just don't see the reason to make a 2017X alt cuz it really would just be a grayscale sonic lol

as for dark_cart287, yes the forward air was patched to remove the forward boost, pretty experimental change but right now i can't do anything about it cuz of sonic being a part of a major bracket
idk what will be the result of if it will be kept, changed back or somewhere in the middle so don't hold onto it too hard

2017x has so much aura tho, jokes aside this is easily the best sonic mod on the workshop. Glad you're working on animation vs can't wait til release

bar-kun, did you change sonic's movement? usually when using forward attack in the air (the spinning kick), you'd get launched forward. i haven't played in like about 2 - 3 weeks since today, but now when i use it, i don't get forward?

no

I love this but please make a 2017x skin

you're welcome sonimatic14

also i don't know what you mean MLGsupersonicgamer
which attack is the basic attack that has broken sprites and how does it "kick you out"?

sonic's basic attack sprite is broken and everytime i use it it just kickes me out the fight

Just getting into workshop stuff and this character plus the amazing windy valley stage made me legitimately start crying. My whole life I've been waiting for a version of sonic in a fighting game that feels like the sonic I grew up with and this mod feels like he never left and he's always been here just like I've always remembered. Thank you so much

yeah, it's not recommended cuz... yknow changing your system time and all but that's how it works

so if I change my system time I can keep using the Lord X alt outside of its actual period?

oh no worries no disrespect taken, i'll keep note of this and see how we go about it after vortex

thanks again!

What made forward air unique was its forward momentum, making it a committal move. It had strong burst and recovery utility, but the active hitbox was parry-prone and sometimes carried Sonic into bad spots. It was strong, but not brainless. I often preferred nair or ftilt since one was safer and the other racked up damage well (old ftilt was surprisingly versatile).

I don’t agree that forward air overshadowed forward or neutral special. While Fair and Fspec traveled similar arcs, Fspec was usually my go-to, often nuking stocks at 100% near ledge. Nspec, meanwhile, reliably forced opponents further offstage and spiked with safety.

No disrespect intended. I just wanted to post my perspective. Do what you feel is right.

i'll be honest, i've had problems with that move for a long time and didn't really know what to do with it
the move was way too strong for what it gave sonic:
- very active
- multihits on a character that his main mechanic involves doing combo hits to get to a stronger state
- a burst option
it overshadowed other moves in the kit like fspec and nspec so i felt like something needed to change

for now we'll see how it goes and how more people feel about it, since sonic will be in the vortex gallery 2025 bracket i won't be able to push any patches but another patch is already worked on (not by me i don't have the time)

thanks for the feedback regardless i appritiate it

I'm ok with a majority of these changes, but I feel the forward air nerf wasn't the way. The unorthodox movement options & controls made Sonic a really fun spin on the Rushdown character. The forward air change I feel betrays this for something more standard.

not going to lie though...That lord X skin is awesome. the super form is my favorite part along with how he starts.

darn alright, mod rocks though! wish you well man

i can't it relies on your system time

trynna use the lord X skin since it just became august for me and it keeps crashing my friend whos behind my timezone, could you fix that?

i'm not planning to update sonic anymore unless it's for balance/bugfixing

Please add a Ashura skin

oh snap i forgot that s-ranks didnt exist on adventure titles

Yeah thats fair, Ive been trying to get a video of this bug for the past couple hours but cant seem to replicate it now that i actually want to, but once i do get a video of it ill make sure to come back here and let you know

video would be useful
i'm pretty busy to go ahead and patch sonic myself but i can at least ask someone else to do it

if you would like i can try to get a screenshot or video of it happening to show you

news to me, never heard of this happening

Is there a known bug with this that makes him spawn slightly above the ground and keeps him floating until he dies? i cant seem to play my first stock on any maps without floating. i cant use his tornado ability while hes like this

S ranks didn't exist on the adventure titles

i know its too much work and everything, but in a future update can you add the S Rank?

Pretty cool character, very fun to use

no

is there a way to shift to super sonic from regular sonic mid match without chaos emerald buddy, by just getting boost meter filled or something -- like 20th alt skin into dark sonic? cant figure itout

read notable features i'm tired of answering this question

Where's the illegal instruction coloration? I can't find it.

the soundtrack be like every other sonic OST's (PEAK)
