We all know the Target Smashes in Super Smash Bros Brawl (if you don`t than this is not a blog for you). So here are some tips to complete the Time Challanges at Target Smash.
Level 1: Target Smash 1 is simple to complete, but the Targets are still far away from each other. So you should use the gun of Fox or Falco to hit Targets from far.I did it as following with Falco: I first shot the 2 Targets in front of me when I started. Then I did the Falco Phantasm (side B) attack to get through the wall at the left (I hitted a Target at the same time). Then I falled down while shooting (B) to the right. I had some luck and I hitted all the Targets at the right. So one left to go....I kicked the last one because it was right behind me. I did it in about 8 seconds.
Level 2: Target Smash 2 looks hard, but it isn`t that at all. There are many ways to complete it fast. But some technics are essential to get a good time.
Tip 1: You can use the Smart Bomb to hit the Targets at the top of the stage.
Tip 2: There is a crate with wheels at the center of the stage. Try to kick it in the air so it rides down and hits the 2 Targets at the bottem.
Tip 3: The most essential wapon used to hit Targets: The Cracker Launcher. There is one at the top of the stage. Grab it and hit as many Targets as you can!
How I did it: I used Sonic. First I launch Sonic forward (side B) to hit the 2 Targets at the bottom (watch out for the poison Mushroom!). Then I quickly launch Sonic up with the Spring Jump attack (up B). While I`m in the air I quickly hit the Crate so it hits the Target at the right. A quick jump to the top to get the Cracker Launcher. Then I hitted the left Target with Launcher. And finally I jump to the right and hit all the remaining Targets with the Launcher (while falling all the way down!!). I did it in about 11 seconds.
Level 3: Level 3 is a bit nasty. You can either go down or go forward. Here are some nice tips:
Tip 1: Pikachu can easily hit the Target below the Start Point by walking a bit to the left and using the Thunder Jolt attack (B). The Jolt will follow the platform all the way to the Target.
Tip 2: Yes! Another Smart Bomb...but what to do with it. When you stand at the left of the Blast Box jump and throw the Smart Bomb just between the Box and the Platform. If you threw it right, it will explode and hit the flying 2 Targets and the Target below the Platform (at the spikes).
Tip 3: If you want to go down at the Start. Try to hit the Target at the bottom by throwing a projectile to it. Like the Bomb of Link. But also try to land on the Spring to go up again, so you can hit the Target below the Platform at the Start Point.
How I did it: I used Pikachu. I used Thunder Jolt (B) at the start to hit the Target below the Start Platform. Then I took the launcher to launch myself to the far left. I pressed Z just on the right time to grab the Smart Bomb in the air. I felt down and threw the Bomb between the Platform and Box to hit the three Targets (see Tip 2). Then I felt down to the Target at the bottom (left) and used the Thunder attack (down B) to hit 2 Targets. Then I used the Skull Bash attack (side B) to hit the Target above the gap. I quickly jumped to hit the Target in the air. And finally I hitted the last Target at the right. I did it in about 15 seconds.
Level 4 and 5 are coming tomorrow!! Hope you can use the Tips! If you have a faster way to complete it, please let me know. If you look at my times you`ll notice that this aren`t the best times!!
P.S. Please, don`t comment on my Grammar faults. I`m dutch!!
