As many have said, Jerm is probably the best known Shulk. If you count "wi-fi" as being good, the second best player on Anther's Ladder this season, and I believe third best last season, is a heavy Shulk main named DragonBrain. His play with the Shield Art has me completely convinced that...

Late to this party, but might as well throw in my two cents on Shulk. First of all, Fox used to be Shulk's worst MU by far when he still had his jab lock combo. It made the MU nigh unwinnable against great foxes, even when playing perfectly. The removal of this has shifted the MU...

Shulk has terrible framedata, that much can't be argued, but his mobility is hilariously good with either jump or speed. And no, speed's lower damage output makes literally no difference, since you should only be using it at very low or very high %s, and your opponent will more often than not...

I honestly would put ryu at 5 star, or maybe 4 1/2. He kills so early and has an insane amount of followups, and literally getting hit once with a tilt near the edge can be a guaranteed death at low percents. I honestly think ryu is one of the best, if the not best, "advantaged" player in the...

Ryu is insane I'll give you that, but I stand by my assessment that Shulk is incredibly hard to recover from. Most characters have maybe one good kill option off stage, and even then its mostly a meteor. Every single one of DK's aerials has great kill options off stage, with the worst being...

Oh in disadvantage? I thought we were talking advantage. I agree for disadvantage. Shulk has a horrific disadvantage game, possibly one of the worst of the cast. He is not only combo'd easily, but he has a fairly predictable recovery that has almost no horizontal range, and no super armor at...

DK has one real consistent kill set up, being the ding dong. All of his other kills "set ups" are due to strong hits off stage, which Shulk has even more so. Ryu has his tilts to shoryukens, which I agree supercede Shulk, but I would say that Ryu is actually underrated because of that, and not...

It depends on who you are playing as. Whenever I play as Ganon for example, tilt rarely affects how I play, but when I'm playing as Shulk, it completely destroys my game. As for dealing with it, step back, give yourself a minute to think, and then resume. Diving right back in when your pissed...

Actually re-reading the thread, I'd bump him up to 4 1/2 stars, or 4 to be conservative. Any low recovery option that isn't near instant is fatal against Shulk. The reason I put Shulk at 3 1/2 was mostly because I assumed that the "average" was 3 stars, not like 4ish.

Haven't seen it yet, so I might as well talk about Shulk's advantage game. Shulk has an incredibly potent advantage game, but it really depends on the art he is in, with shield being the worst and pretty much all his other arts being selectively good depending on the nature of the advantage...

First video for "pilot wings" is wuhu. And its an ancient glitch that has been patched for a while now. Also to answer the question of why team attack is on in doubles, the problem is that it becomes a game of throwing out as many hitboxes as possible. Its less of a strategic game and more of...

You mean I can make Shulk's speed grab even more ridiculous? Yes please!

Intimidation is incredibly important, and depending on who you are playing or how competitive it is, is a tool you should use whenever you are able. If you want to win, you should focus on demoralizing your opponent as much as possible. Make them nervous around you, and they will be more...

As much as I would love it, there is no way. Not only is it a walk off, but its technically a layered walkoff, which means as long as someone camps under the higher platform near the walkoff, they will be extremely hard to remove, and can force a potentially fatal approach. I'm particularly...

:4mario: and :4ganondorf: solely for the ganon cannon. But in all seriousness, probably characters with a projectile and ness/ villager probably are among the best.
