So on a lark I wanted to fight as Ike today, no special reason, after some warm ups in For Fun, I went into 1-on-1.... and got my ass handed to me; until I got paired up with another Ike. For the next 3 - 4 hours we fought Ike v Ike. Greeting with Taunts at the start, suiciding when the other...

I almost never approach with DH, I force the opponent to come to me with Cans and Frisbees; where upon i throw more cans and frisbees in their face as they try to get close. Just Camp it out. As for killing, F-Smash and Bair are great as well as Up-Air if you've got them juggled with Cans or...

Short Hop Down Air works very well. Everything else has been said by others.

It is somewhat surprising. I rarely run into Yoshi's in FG. Im actually really pleased because Yoshi has brought me out of a losing slump I've been in while trying to find the right character. (I've been trying since the games release to find myself in the game). And Yoshi is up in my top...

No one mentioning :4ness: Ness as a bad match up? That kinda makes me sad =(. I had some real trouble with one while playing Zelda since his dash attack and fair are big, glowy impenetrable walls and PK Fire comes out a bit too fast to reflect with Nayru most times. Ness' grabs are one of his...

Surprisingly, I don't mind playing with the Wii U Gamepad. It's size is well suited for my large hands. And even more surprisingly, I have a GC Controller (from my Melee Days) and adapter and I absolutely cannot use it, it's much too small now. However, I prefer to use my Wii U Pro Controller...

So I'd mentioned this in my first post, but I just had a match where it was very noticeable, the Latched Pikmins ability to absorb your enemies projectiles. This had happened before with Samus' missiles in a match, but this time it was against Robin. I had a Red Pikmin latched to him and he...

So, with my hands on the Wii U version, for me at least, things were a lot different. Being able to intricately see the stage and characters, better controls etc. it all makes a huge difference. Most of all though, With Olimar/Alph You can actually SEE what they're doing. (I include Alph...

So I started doing some looking at Lucario (or Lucy!) earlier today. It's been a character I didn't quite understand because I skipped Brawl... after doing some reading I started seeing that Lucy's strengths were in line with ones that I find important in battle; not so much on combos but on...

Honestly, I had fully expected Kirby's new Final Smash to be Hyper Nova Kirby, it baffles me as to why that wasn't the case. But for those who think Kirby doesn't use many stolen abilities with his current move set, he does. I'm sure the OP knows all this, but some may not... Currently...

Nothing against people trying to win, and you're probably misinterpreting what I meant by a "try hard", but if it becomes obvious that you're outclassing your opponent in the match, to where they aren't or can't even put up a fight, there's a difference between "toning it down" and fighting just...

Yknow I had totally spaced on the fact that with every new character that gets introduced for the game is another new skill/ability that Kirby gets to play with as well. It's the character that keeps on giving isn't it? For me though, with how integral using his opponents abilities against them...

Kirby is tough to do well. It's all about mind games and using your physical characteristics to your advantage. As was previously stated, Kirby's crouch or duck is insane and can be considered an additional defensive move (adding to rolls, shields, and spot dodges). It's only matched by WFT who...

I sympathize with the OP on this. Don't get me wrong, a lot of times I get paired with players I could probably beat if I really tried, but there are times when I just want to do a more semi-casual fight to the death. Instead I get raging "try hards" who work themselves to the bone in the...

Go ahead and test, unless you have something more important on your plate. One thing for me though, His swords hitboxes seem much less deceptive, they extend to the tip now.
