My opinion on notable Macs?
"FIGHT SOL FIGHT! FIGHT SOL FIGHT! FIGHT SOL FIGHT!"
hypest final game to a set i have ever seen, but in all honesty, if the Ryu had just stuck to the top part of the tree, he would have been fine. TBH, this, and recent tourney events have really discouraged me from playing little mac. Why? because there is nothing you can do to someone camping, besides raw up b or a unsafe aerial, which they don't care about getting hit by really because its like 5% damage at most. a metaknight camping smashville, a platform charging spamus, a gordo throwing dedede on duck hunt, and that's not the worst part. the worst part is that EVERY CHARACTER can get out of little macs juggles in an easy way: jump. you dtilt, utilt, jab, ftilt, any string setup at all, they jump and get out of it. point is, after 40%, there are no guaranteed combos on most characters, and the fact is, the best way for you to punish shield is grab, which grants you nothing but a reset to neutral. when i lose neutral, i get juggled to kingdom come, and am at risk of losing a stock, but when i pop them in the air, i get almost no conversion or extra percent for it. Little mac has to WORK HARDER than most other high tier characters to net a stock or earn percent. yes his smashes do an absurd amount of damage and knockback, and do sometimes as much damage as some characters combos do, but the difference? combos are safe conversions, smash attack reads are not. Point is, a skilled player willing to play grimy will almost always beat a little mac, no matter how good they are. and you will find all kinds of players like that at large scale events. Don't get me wrong, i will still play little mac (im a stubborn guy like that.) but im kinda seeing the perspective here that little mac will always struggle with the top 20 characters, and will always be susceptible to camping from any player and character. didn't mean to bring this in here, but recent games with other players have kinda shown me how futile it is for mac sometimes.
