Hi, guys.
This is my first post here, but I've been a fan of Smash Bros all my life and the game itself opened up the world of Nintendo for me with franchises I didn't even know about.
To my main point, Ganondorf needs to be fixed.
Some general bad things about Ganondorf or nerfs:
What are some changes you think should be made to the rock-bottom of the tiers?
Personally, I think:
What are your ideas or thoughts on Ganondorf?
This is my first post here, but I've been a fan of Smash Bros all my life and the game itself opened up the world of Nintendo for me with franchises I didn't even know about.
To my main point, Ganondorf needs to be fixed.
Some general bad things about Ganondorf or nerfs:
- Just generally slow. Slow moving, slow moves, slow dodging, slow jumping.
- Bad horizontal recovery.
- Isn't as durable as he should be compared to his size/power.
- His size gives him hitboxes that are even bigger than the regularly large hitboxes.
- He only has 1 multiple-hitting move (d-smash).
- Small jumps.
- Slow moves (long frame animations).
- Overall weaker than in Melee.
- Wizard's Foot from mid-air doesn't enable another mid-air jump (recovery technique).
- Short as f*** grab.
What are some changes you think should be made to the rock-bottom of the tiers?
Personally, I think:
- Make him faster than Bowser, or as fast as he was in Melee.
- Noticeably higher jumps.
- Buff his strength and durability. He shouldn't be an easy KO at 110% while Luigi is floating around carelessly at 160%.
- His arm should extend far outwards (like he's reaching out to choke) when he goes for a Z-grab.
- More multiple-hitting moves. Change his Nair to be a 360 kick, perhaps. Or his Uair is the same as his ground recovery (helicopter kick, which hits both above, left and right sides of him).
- Faster A attacks with longer reach on his 'spartan kick' and his punch/push neutral A attack.
- Up-B recovery does more damage on contact, like in Melee, or it does slight lasting damage like the flower item.
What are your ideas or thoughts on Ganondorf?
Yeah, a lot of people talk about the sword and how it should be used, etc. I just think that Ganondorf is (meant to be) strong enough to the point he doesn't need the sword. He's raw power and is able to have a long reach with his arms or legs. One of his biggest vices is, as shown by his animations, his arms are so close in - his grabs, his Fair (and even Bair), his punch. His elbow is bent which would take back quite a lot of distance.
