Zss is kind of like a campy captain falcon. She isn't as fast but she has a great combo game. You just have to out camp her really. Once she throws something out that's unsafe you need to punish her really hard. One nerf she got was that if you hit her off stage she only gets her down b once. So...

Dude just play fox. He destroys falcon. Same with Falco. Falcon has the worst tech roll in the game. You can tech chase him to death. Also if you get him off stage he should die.

Honestly I don't get why they nerfed him. Yes I get that he was very good but he was still outclassed by the top tiers (fox, Falco, wolf, shiek, Roy, lucario) and yes I realize fox was 'nerfed' but let's all be honest for a second, it's not like people were ever winning majors with falcon lol...

I changed the data to reflect only 3.5 results. Thanks for the critique :)

It's fixed.

Arguably the best aerials? Idk man. They're good but have you seen marth?

I'll look into it. I just don't know how feasible it would be to compile all the data for that. It could definitely help though and if I can I'll add it to the post.

Well, actually the reason I made this thread was to show how diverse the metagame really is, and that even though Fox is top tier, the overwhelming amount of people don't even play spacies in PM. Fox is the most used as an individual character, but when you have someone like ganondorf as the 3rd...

Hmmm. Yeah I guess I should have used them in the broken position. I'll fix it. edit: It's been fixed.

You make a very good point with the region comment. I live on the east coast and I still wanna play Roy when I watch him haha. I'm still surprised ganondorf is the 3rd most used though. I wish there was a way I could separate the statistics by region as that could be really interesting as well...

Everything Indigeau said is right, I would just like to also give you a few pieces of advice. When it comes to tech skill, it can seem overwhelming at first. You feel like you know nothing and there's no way to catch up to other players. However in all honesty, besides spacies the tech skill for...

The point of this thread is to express your thoughts on why certain characters are at the top of the character usage charts but may or may not be top tier characters in themselves. If you look at the statistics I've compiled you can see that our community doesn't really just play top tiers but...

I never said it was never used in melee I simply said that its too strong an option in smash 4. Also by all means show me a matchup in melee where approaching with shield is a good idea besides samus(slow grab). You could say vs Falco but powershielding lasers is much different and harder than...

Yeah you're right. You CAN in fact approach by running up to someone and shielding in every game. Just cause you can doesn't make it a good approach. However it has never been anywhere close to as safe as it is in smash 4 where there are a lot fewer options that are safe on shield. Not to...
