Brawl Stage of the Week: Spear TWMX

by Candace Savino { Jun 3rd 2008 at 4:30PM }

If you've been completing your events like a good little boy or girl, you've probably unlocked the Spear Pillar stage. The layout in this stage is simple, but effective, and it stands out as one of our favorites. Yet, there are just a few, teeny obstacles that may get in your way -- like, say, some badass, legendary pokémon.

Do you love Spear Pillar, but are tired of getting your butt kicked by Dialga, Palkia, or Cresselia? Would you rather the stage be about straight-up brawling? Then you should check out McBey's Spear TWMX after the break.

Spear TWMX by McBey

As you may or may not be able to tell, Spear TWMX is a bit larger than the level it was based after. In addition, the moving platforms are spread further apart and move up higher than the ones in Spear Pillar. Even so, this is as accurate a replica as you can get using Brawl's stage builder.

In case you were wondering where the "TWMX" came from, those letters were just chosen at random (as was the music, "The Song of Storms"). McBey and his buddies really enjoy playing on this stage, though, because they prefer a relaxed atmosphere without pokémon getting in their way. What about you? Do you prefer the level with or without the stage-distorting, pain-inducing creatures?

No offense or anything, but this is kind od dissapointing.

What I want to see is custom stages. Not stages we can already play on.

I want to say something without feeling superior or something...

I've made a lot of stages much better than that, seriously, and I'm sure there are many who can do really good stages.

Now, don't tell me 'then send some stages', because I already sent like 15 stages a month ago :P

I'm not saying 'Hey, put my stages, they're better.', I'm just saying that there must be a lot of better stages...
