SMSB

**Stop Motion Smash Bros**, aka SMSB was a video series Poyo Ride planned to do for almost all of TARS's lifespan. It was basically the "TARS Smash Bros".

## Roster

Each year of TARS updated the SMSB roster.

### First Roster

This roster was likely made in 2014. It has quite a few irrevelant characters.

At first, characters were handdrawn, up until Metal Man, who Poyo Ride had difficulty drawing. He later learned how to add images into MS paint and later into comics. Kirby and Poorly Drawn Kirby are miscolored to distinguish them from Pink Kirby.

Metal Man's appearance as well as the appearance of GKAR characters suggest this roster was made in late 2014, and possibly 2015. Poyo Ride also remembers being with his cousin while he made the roster, which was also the case when Metal Man became a character, so this roster and Metal Man could have possibly been made at the same time. It's also possible Metal Man was randomly added in due to the fact a Metal Man page assisted the TARS characters with a raid a while ago.

### Third Roster

   The third roster was made on September 17, 2016, as the second roster was very old, and was only updated through DLC packs. That caused Mrs. AMP and Miss Robot, two major characters, to be relegated to the DLC packs. Another series regular, Mettaton, was not in a DLC pack at all.

It was updated the next day to include Bayonetta, hence why her box is much smaller, and crammed in between Mega Man and Bowser's.

#### REAL Perfect Attendance Crew

* White Kirby
* Dyna Blade
* Mewtwo
* Mega Man
* Red Kirby

## SMSB M.U.G.E.N.

On April 26, 2018, Poyo Ride announced that since he had nothing better to do, he would make SMSB a real fighting game using the M.U.G.E.N. engine.
The game received an official twitter on the 28th of April. https://twitter.com/smsbmugen Updates from the game will be posted there. Notably, the official Twitter has deconfirmed the appearance of recurring fighter Bowser as being part of the roster
.

## Cut Characters

These characters were planned to be in the 2nd roster but got cut.

### Aunt Sally

Aunt Sally was planned to appear, launching letters from PEMDAS. She was cut as she didn't appear often in TARS.

### Sphere Doomer

Sphere Doomer was a late addition to the second SMSB roster. He was cut when a better character had been decided.

### Blue

Blue was cut to be a palette swap of Ashbond.

### George Washington

For some reason Washington made the cut for the first DLC pack. He was cut not long after for obvious reasons.

### Metal Sonic

Cut for Darkrai, as Darkrai is actually a character.

### E123 Omega

Like Washington, he somehow made his way into the roster, but was cut for a better character.

### Garfield

An anoymous wiki contributor edited Garfields page to include info about him in SMSB. This was quickly labelled as false, and the info was removed from the page. He will not make the cut due to being a minor character from the Granny Torrelli series, which has better choices like Bailey, Pardo, Homer, etc.

### Mr. Tickle

Poyo Ride ran out of character ideas again and asked one of his cousins if she had any ideas. Her first suggestion was Greninja, who was shot down as he already made it into the main roster. Her next suggestion was someone named Mr. Tickle, which also got shot down in two seconds.

## Tier List

* High Tiers
* Mid Tiers
* Low Tiers
* Original Tier List
1/4
SMSB 2.0. had a tier list. There were three tier list sheets made, one for the high tiers, one for mid tiers, and one for low tiers. Deoxys's forms all had seprate spots on the tier list. Characters on the list were just put in random spots. Poyo Ride claims that he doesn't like how he put Garchomp and Dry Bowser in the low tiers while Rocky is in the higher tiers. Spot 66 is empty. DLC Pack 1 had their own unfinished tier list.

The list states the best characters in SMSB are Brown Kirby, Mewtwo, Quick Man, Green Link, Black Kirby, and Metal Man. The worst characters are Mario, Marth, Luigi, Link Kirby, Mr. Game & Watch, and the Poorly Drawn Kirby.

There was another tier list made for the second roster. It is unclear if it was made before or after the first list, though White Kirby's higher placing may indicate it was made after. This list says the best character in the game is Mewtwo, followed by Bandit, Metal Man, Freddy Fazbear, and Green Kirby. All of the characters on this list were on the first sheet of the other tier list, meaning Poyo Ride's opinions on the best characters in SMSB haven't changed much between both lists.

## Trivia

* Blue Kirby is the only GKAR kirby never to appear in any SMSB roster.
* Irionically, despite being a character active during early 2015, Antasma first appeared in the 2016 roster.
	+ Antasma was planned for SMSB in 2015, but was cut in order to be a boss.
* Rayquaza is the only character to skip the second roster, but return in the third one.
* New Purple Kirby and Jumping Assbot were slated to appear in the third roster as DLC characters.
