    Guide Sonic GUIDE/FAQ: ASK QUESTIONS HERE

    Landing is not one of Sonic's strong suits. Mix up between spin dash/charge, shield cancelled spin dash, Nair, regular landing into shield/roll, and spring jump into down air. If you keep using the same one, you'll get punished, but if you can get a handle on their punish habits, you can usually...

    1. Combo? Not really 2. Spinshot and following up on aerial spin dash/charge require and consume your double jump. You also cannot jump after using your up b (sounds obvious, but can be annoying after up throw combos), so be careful 3. Spin Dash/Charge into Spring Jump can't be immediately...

    Why hasn't doc been buffed?

    Puff has some thing's going for her, definitely, she's got some surprising hitboxes and a lot of combos just don't work on her, but if anybody actually played her, the community would learn to counter them. Doc is not good, but even with people vaguely knowing how to play against him thanks to...

    Why hasn't doc been buffed?

    Pretty sure if Jigglypuff is still waiting, Doc can't complain

    I know the general strategy (though I personally have always played much more aggressively, timeouts are stupid). I was just hoping to watch some videos to help get a better idea on what the timing and range on her moves are so I can better punish them The key is to bait punishable attacks...

    I just lost my second tournament in a row to Bayonetta, anyone have some good Sonic vs Bayonetta videos I could watch just to become more familiar with the match up?

    Metagame Preference - Rolling updates or No Updates - (OPINION POLL)

    My question is, where's the Jigglypuff buff? Seriously, they've only directly patched her once, and that was fixing a glitch

    Metagame Preference - Rolling updates or No Updates - (OPINION POLL)

    I'd rather no updates than what they've been doing, but the best case scenario is they did all the unviable characters before they shut it down. Perfect balance will never be achieved, but there's no excuse they didn't fix Samus, Zelda, Jiggly, Canon, and the other downright awful characters

    TSM | ZeRo Wins Smash 4 Singles At Genesis 3! (Top 8 Recap)

    As soon as I saw Void pull that perfect pivot to continue his F Tilt string, I knew this top 8 was going to be hype. It did not disappoint. Seriously though, Dabuz was so hype

    Official Viability Ratings v2 | Competitive Impressions

    Ike definitely has a better match up than most characters against Sonic, but I'd rather go against Ike than Shiek or Rosa. As long as the sonic is good enough to not spam spin dash and the Ike doesn't throw out unsafe options, the slight overall advantage Ike has rarely affects who wins

    Is it important to main a top-tier character?

    Omni explained it fine, there's no reason not to have a top tier you can win with

    Guide Sonic GUIDE/FAQ: ASK QUESTIONS HERE

    Fox wins neutral, but Sonic gets more consistent reward off of neutral with a grab or spin dash combo dealing at least 15%, has an easier time resetting when in disadvantage, and sets up kills easier. I don't see why it's so accepted Fox wins

    Official Viability Ratings v2 | Competitive Impressions

    Can't speak for most of those characters, but Lucario doesn't really fear Puff. His mediocre neutral is more against campers, and Jigglypuff has to approach, from the air, to get damage. In the air, she is vulnerable to fair, one of Lucario's better attacks. The biggest problem is that in the...

    Sorry, but could someone explain why Fox is considered a bad match up? The MU thread seems a little out of date
