Duck Hunt Dog/DJ HANNIBALROYCE's version

''This version was sprited by Shane Toner. Like all of DJ HANNIBALROYCE's chars, it comes packed with jokes, references, and several different types of entrances involving trophies. Badder than old Donkey Kong, this is one mean Duck Hunt Dog.''

Gameplay


DJ's version of Duck Hunt Dog uses six buttons, and it plays in the creators own style, meaning an emphasis on humor and many varied Normals. The air is a body slam that resembles Crash Bandicoot's body slam and hits OTG. Both the air and air  are diving attacks. It can Air Dash as well as double jump. Being made some point after the Smash 4 leak, this character does not play like said game, nor do the sprites resemble the character's appearance from said game. This character's popularity ended up winning it October 2014's Character of the Month awards at The Mugen Fighters Guild.

An unconventional character, Duck Hunt Dog has several moves based on luck. The Random Toss Special throws one of three objects: Gumshoe (dealing 60 damage and knocking the foe up into the air), Smash Target (dealing 70 damage and knocking the opponent back slightly), and a bombercan (dealing 80 damage and knocking the opponent down). The Hogan's Alley Special is a counter move that summons one of three cutouts that hurt the foe if they were to attack it. There is the Afro Thug (dealing 70 damage), the Slim Gangster (dealing 80 damage), and the Chubby Boss (dealing 90 damage). The Fly Away Hyper is has five different outcomes: Bootleg duck, which only causes chip damage, regular duck, which does 8 damage per duck, Assist's Ducks, which deal 12 damage per duck, green duck, that drain Power and deal 1 damage per duck, and #DuckFail, which does no damage and leaves the character open.

There are a few oversights in the character. It has no throw, nor does it have any low attacks or overheads. , crouching, and crouching are unsafe on hit while  is safe on block despite dealing more damage than the three moves. The Duck Assist move is unsafe on hit unless it is directly in front of the opponent. There are no variations of the Specials aside from the randomly occuring events in Random Toss and Hogan's Alley; for example, no matter which button is pressed, the Roll Over Uppercut will always deal the same amount of damage, roll the same amount of distance and keep the same amount of frame data. The hitboxes, while simple and few in number, move somewhat sporadically, as seen in Duck Hunt Dog's idle stance. The blue hitbox covering its face is in the same position, but the hitbox covering its body seems to jiggle around.

Trivia

 * It was originally going to have a selfie move, where an iphone camera took a picture of Duck Hunt Dog and then took a picture of the opponent, stunning them. This idea was turned down by MFG and DJ decided to take it out.
 * The bootleg duck is based off of the mugen creator Duck@ss, who is known for making bootleg characters.
