Least favorite chars?

[Shuckle89]

Multiple choices possible. What are the chars you dislike really and expect not to use at all? and why? I saw a thread about the newcomers but I'm also curious what about the newcomers + veterans.


Mine are Meta Knight (never liked him in brawl + I dislike chars the more they are being used, so he's probably my least favorite), Yoshi (even though he was okay in brawl, I'm just so thrilled with almost every char I don't think i'll use yoshi at all), Diddy kong (guess my dislike for items goes as far as banana Shenanigans) and Lucario (not my style. Played him a while when brawl was just released but after, kind of totally ignored him)

 

[Shuckle89]

It's nice a few people have already voted, but if no one says anything here the thread will get lost.

 

[Justin Little]

Pikachu. It is highly overrated.

 

[YoshiandToad]

I feel like this thread is in danger of being locked due to possibly promoting anti campaigns.

That said I can't say I'd miss either Falco or Lucas if they weren't in.

Of who we got so far...I dunno; Marth? He never really appealed to me.

 

[the smash nerd]

!.
Lucina? Dear god no.
2.Like ham in PMW1/2 but not in PMW3/Smash
3.never liked him in brawl

4.(not my style. Played him a while when brawl was just released but after, kind of totally ignored him)

 

[Marakatu]

I already casted my votes. but if we don't a get a fully evolved grass starter, count one more vote to Greninja. Without a grass starter, Greninja is random, out of place and makes no sense.
I voted for the Mii Fighters and Wii Fit Trainer. I can understand why the Mii Fighters are in the game, but I'll never accept Wii Fit Trainer. She's not even a character. She is just an eyeless, skinless, personless thing.
I forgot to vote for Toon Link. Just make normal Link a good character and call it a day. The five Zelda characters should be Link, Zelda, Impa, Ganondorf and Tingle.
(Heck, I'm surprised that everybody got a vote, even Mario.)

 

[strawhatninja]

I don't like Link, Villager, and WFT, but I just don't like Link and I think someone better could've replaced Villager and WFT I have no problems with the actual character. Also Toon Link because he should have a different moveset not be a clone.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Of the currently announced ones?



I dislike very gimmick heavy characters, so I can already say I'm not good friends with Rosalina, and Olimar of course fits under this too which is a bit of a shame as he's actually a cool little fella'. Add ICs here when they're eventually announced.
I dislike Palutena's personality and she doesn't really offer anything interesting in her moveset imo. Same for Pac-Man actually, his moveset looks bland and his personality consists entirely of winking at the screen.
And Wii Fit Trainer... eh. There's nothing special about her moveset, she's solely here to be a surprise as far as I can see.

Of course this is all mostly centered around my playstyle and my opinions, so I don't consider them bad additions at all, they're just not my thing.

 

[AustarusIV]

I dislike because she is blatant, overt fanservice and is a sorry excuse for both a second Metroid rep and a female character.

The Miis are another set of characters that I haven't grown fond of, because they have move sets that could have been used for more worthy newcomers, and moves that should have been customs for existing veterans (the side smash for Mii gunner should have been given to Samus!).

hasn't exactly been very interesting to meso far, which is probably because she has had by far the worst trailer out of all the newcomers. I can't really say much about her playstyle so far, so I might change my mind later on.

 

[TerminalMontage]

I don't like Rosalina (and Luma) because I think she looks like Peach but with long bangs. She looks like she plays well, but I'm a little bummed that a Peach look-alike made it on the roster.

Then Toon Link, for being a clone.

Then Lucario because I'm still bitter he replaced Mewtwo in Brawl.

 

[Gene]

I like everyone.

 

[Makaronileo]

How could anyone choose Kirby...

 

[SS-bros14]

I just chose my least favorites in smash 4.

1. : Only like 10 people in the world asked for her, does nothing in game but teach you yoga, and all-in-all a wasted slot. Plus, her moves are yoga moves which is pretty stupid, and I don't think I can master her.
2. : Could never master this guy. Not to mention, I never liked him in Mario since he was just a tag along.
3. : Besides the fact I don't really like Pokemon, I could never master this guy (dog?).

"I could never master these characters. That makes them useless!"

 

[Blue Ninjakoopa]

You spelled "Palutena" wrong. Anyway,

- I think she'll be Sakurai's baby and she'll get drastically overpowered. I don't have problems with her being on the roster (she full well deserves it), I'm just not interested in her as a Smash Bros. character.

- I used to like Luigi, back when it was more of a joke that he's an "eternal understudy" than a painful truth (many casuals only like him out of pity these days). Because of his status as the perceived inferior sibling, Luigi gets overrated and overblown a lot. Aside from that, I hate how he plays in every game, having excellent aerials being neutered by poor movement on the ground and in the air (except in Melee, where wavedashing helps him a lot). I also don't like his voice much.

- I hate fighting Zelda, and I just don't like her feel. Her new down special looks cool though.

- Like Palutena (and everyone else on this list) she deserves her spot on the roster as a hugely popular and relevant Mario series character, but her moves look really boring and she seems to be a character that would rely on unorthodox strategies for damage and KOs. She also has Zelda's build, being a huge target but very light, which is never a good thing.

- A surprise character to me honestly. She looks kind of boring.

- I hated fighting Pit in Brawl, I hate his voice, and I hate how he feels as a Smash Bros. character.

- As with Zelda and Pit I hate fighting her, and she never appealed to me much.

"I could never master these characters. That makes them useless!"

I'm not saying they're 'useless'.
Well, they are useless to me.

 

[ErenJager]

Glad to see people dislike what I dislike.

 

[moneyfrenzy]

The mii's by far. They do not need to have all these separate play styles and custom moves, it is a waste of dev time imo.

They also cannot be used online, which is just awful, it gives no incentive to want to play as them knowing that if i go online i cant use them

 

[Jdaster64]

If we're solely going off how much I'll play them, Palutena, Lucario and Meta Knight would likely top the list. I feel that Palutena's moveset seems random, and Lucario's seems one half too weighty and one half too slippery. I don't really have an issue with the execution of Meta Knight's moveset or his general inclusion, I just don't play him well.

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

I don't really know what to do with this.

Is it based on who I specifically do not want to play as? There are easily more characters I won't play as regularly than I will play as, due to both the size of the roster and due to not liking every character's playstyle.

Is it based on who I don't like seeing on the roster at all? I'm pretty sure Sheik is currently the only character I don't feel is "worthy" of her spot (if such a classification exists), but I'm not exactly against the inclusion, either.

Is it just characters whom I don't think are very interesting to play as? Well, that's pretty much the same list as the first one and I don't feel like voting for 70% of the poll options.

 

[Cyberguy64]

Lucina REALLY rubs me the wrong way for being yet ANOTHER sword-wielding Fire Emblem character, and even more for being a clone of Marth.

ZSS bugs me because of the stupid "Now Metroid has two fighters, so stop wanting Ridley!" argument. At the end of the day, she's still Samus.

 

[Chandeelure]

How could anyone choose Kirby...

 

[Deathcarter]

-I'm not interested in at all. Of all the characters in Smash, he feels like the one who feels completely random and undeserving.

-I like in Uprising but I feel underwhelmed about her inclusion in Smash for some reason. Maybe its was her mediocre trailer that failed to excite me.

- is just a waste of what could potentially be an interesting magic based moveset. Doesn't help that I just find her more boring than most of the other characters (except when's she's Sheik/Tetra).

You do know that that Lucina used to be just a skin for Marth, but the devs decided to give her a spot on the roster just because it would take virtually no time to do so, right? Because I thought she was a little iffy at first, but now that it's been confirmed that she is basically 100% a bonus "why not?" character I'm totally cool with her.

I'm surprised people dislike WFT so much. I love her, and think she's hysterical. Bizarre characters like Game & Watch, R.O.B., and her are one of the big reasons I adore SSB. It's not just mountains of Mario and Zelda characters.

The three characters I'll probably play least of the people announced so far are:
,, and
I don't have any huge problems with the latter two being included, they just don't really fit my playstyle. I'm particularly meh about Pac-Man, though, since he doesn't seem to really fit in SSB. Loads of his moves are either just random punches and kicks or him just holding the ghosts out, which is pretty lame. The only really cool moves I've seen of his are the ones where he turns into his classic dot munching form. He probably deserves to get in anyway, just due to how incredibly famous he is, but I'm not exactly dying to play as him.

 

[Johnknight1]

It's not even close.

It's .

He keeps Rock Smash (a move that doesn't fit the character at all), he has 1 new fire move (and it's his coolest looking special move), and he now has freaking Shadow Claw as his forward air.

In Brawl was wonky as hell with his design, and felt disjointed.

It seems instead of fixing they went "meh, let's leave him as is" and made .

It's dumb because and fixed TONS of issues in their past character designs in previous smash games, and yet, it appears has not.

It sucks because has so much potential.

should have several moves that utilize his unique dragon-esk flying movement and body (specifically the head, fire breath, tail, and SEISMIC TOSS EVERYTHING), and fire-based attacks.

But no, claws a lot with its' little T-Rex arms.

===

Every other character I think are a lot better built. I don't think it's even close comparing them to who the developers are soooo confident in that we've seen less of than every character that isn't , who was revealed less than 48 hours ago.

I still don't like her for my reasons outlined above, bonus or not. Sue me.

I'm pretty sure that Charizard's Forward Air is not Shadow Claw.
But, yeah, Rock Smash is weird.

 

[ミスティック Speed]

Whoever voted Mario is my hero. xD

 

[Johnknight1]

I'm pretty sure that Charizard's Forward Air is not Shadow Claw.
But, yeah, Rock Smash is weird.

That new move (definitely the forward air) looks just like a bad combination of Bowser's Melee/Brawl forward air and Mewtwo's forward air (Shadow Claw).

That animation is so unfitting of it hurts. I mean, the thing where has extended arms at least makes sense, given his design and lanky arms.

doesn't have anything remotely like that.

 

[SunnyDust]

Where's the ''I like everyone'' option?

That's just Slash, I don't see Shadows in that attack XD
Also, Charizard can learn Metal Claw in the Pokemon games, and Ash's Charizard knows Slash in the Anime.

 

[Violenceman]

For me, it has to be. and too, if/when they get announced. The Spacies just never clicked for me; I'm not entirely sure why, I just don't find them fun to play as at all. Which is a shame because I really do like the Starfox series. I will give them another shot in Sm4sh and see if my opinion changed, but I'm not optimistic.

It also probably doesn't help that back in my melee days, I had a friend who insisted on only playing Final Destination with no items. You get three guesses on who he always picked. My hatred for Fox was probably cemented in those days.

 

[Johnknight1]

Again, I just don't think in Smash it fits his body composition.

His Project M forward air (the fire breath) was a much better option.

Wing Attack would also be a far superior option.

 

[TeenGirlSquad]

Hm, Charizard does seem poorly designed now that I think about it...

 

[Yonder]

Still Toon Link and Miis. Nothing has changed.

 

[1TheBlueWii1]

makes no sense to me. It's basically with a different art style.

 

[Shuckle89]

Interesting to see. I did expect mii and WFT to be unwanted, but toon lin as well suprises me. I also didn't see rosalina coming.

 

[ErenJager]

Pretty sure it's Dragon Claw, geniuses.

 

[Headcrab Jackalope]

for me.

I'm not a huge fan of her character or design, plus her moveset looks boring in my opinion.
