Now that I've tried a lot of the characters, I'm surprised that Sonic still kinda feels right to me.

There are a few others I use a lot, but Sonic still feels like my main.

I was kinda hoping for something new lol

Yeah... The transition has been pretty seamless for me.

Although Robin has been a very fun secondary. I'm a Sonic main through and through though.

Sonic feels really good in this game. I only wish his portrait/official artwork wasn't so ugly.

If you're looking for a fun character to play as, use mega man and just short hop around the stage, It's so much fun...

I haven't found any newcomer that are fun to play as yet. Only tried Jr and Robin properly and found them both really boring. Don't tend to stray outside of Sonic/jiggs/ness and a little Dorf. I'm too old to learn how to play another character.

That's funny because Robin and BJ (along with Pac) are the newcomers I'm enjoying the most.
BJ (Yes I'm going to keep calling him that) is actually sorta like Sonic but with more projectiles… You can do spindash combos and psuedo-spring-esque with him >:3
Something about moving at the speed of sound.
Yeah, or like, "Way Past Cool" or the plethora of other horribly great things Sonic has said in his life. I just don't know what's the most relevant or fitting for a Smash Social though.

Still very much a Peach main but I have to say I've found myself using Sonic a lot in Smash 4 (much, much more than I did Brawl). He feels so good this time around and I'm definitely going to make more of an effort to make my Sonic a decent secondary...as soon as I stop killing myself trying to get Dair spikes...

I started really liking Peach towards the end of Brawl but I'm not quite making the transition as easily to P4ach as I did with S4nic...

I have a pocket Sonic. For some reason, I've felt less inclined to use him this time around. I guess I'm waiting for the new top tier to show up, but I'm hoping that Rosalina isn't it. She's so...pointless.

Rosalina isn't pointless at all. Not even close. She'll more than likely be top tier. At her worst, she'll be in top of high tier.

Anyone who speculates tiers after a game has been out for a few weeks should be banned. From everything. I don't know why anyone would want their character dubbed top tier cos it'll just mean extra effort is put into learning the matchup from the other side. That was the beauty of Brawl Sonic.

Serious question here, how do I deal with Lucario, or as I call him Lucarryo, the more pressure I apply the more strong he gets. The more I sit back the more time he has to charge that fing aura sphere. ;-;

I have a feeling Lucario may only be even more annoying this game.

His absurd Brawl range feels nerfed, but the buffs he gets for being down in a match is insane. I feel like if the tournament decision is 2 stock matches it's really strong, but okay. If it's 3 stocks, he gains a huge boost and turns into a monster. On the plus side, his recovery is still punishable off stage and if they decide to recover over the stage, Sonic is probably the only character to be able to punish his landing. I don't think it's a good matchup by any means, but I think it's actually a more winnable matchup than it was in Brawl.

Lucario is insanely annoying in this game for me. In Brawl, edgeguarding him was a thing, but this time, he can just do a semi-circle Up B and go from the blast zone the other edge of the stage.

But, Sonic is fast enough to get there and smash him. I think Lucario is going to be huge trouble for alot of characters this time though.

Lucario is rubbish.
I mean good in smash. And pokemon.
But as a pokemon rep he's terrible. He's a really unintersting pokemon with like one (?) movie and nothing that makes him stand out. Maybe I'm just mad cos Haunter should be in the roster.The only cuts I wanted from brawl where him and Snake.
