    ► *CHANNEL & STREAM PROMOTION* Megathread - Share your Channels here!

    Hey everyone! I've been a youtuber for several years for other games, but now having played competitive smash 4 for a couple years I'm starting to get into creating smash 4 content and have set up a separate channel for it. You can check out my channel here...

    How does everyone train for smash?

    Only if you back out while the match is underway. In my post I meant back out after the match is over.

    How do 'YOU' choose a Secondary?

    I just love playing :4dk: so he has naturally become my secondary even though I never intended him to be. He's a terrible choice for a secondary as I imagine he has similar matchups to my main, :4dedede:. But he's just SO damn fun to play. Other than my main he's the only other character I...

    Up coming possibilities

    But we still are losing by a little or a lot to nearly all of the other high/top tiers. I personally still think Diddy is beating us solidly.

    Up coming possibilities

    I've had a change of heart after seeing the massive buffs that another super heavyweight, Charizard, got this patch. If they're gonna give a super heavyweight that kind of love, no reason why Dedede shouldn't get something as well. Is Zard higher on the tier list than Dedede now? Looks like the...

    How to fight Ryu thread

    I'm a Dedede main and I've had tons of success zoning out all the Ryu's I've ran into online. I know it's early and nobody is that good with him yet, but I think that's Ryu's biggest weakness. I've had much more trouble with non-zoning characters. Ryu's speed is only average and he's a bit...

    So, any changes to the King this fine day?

    I played a ton of matches today as DDD. I can't notice anything. I even tried out the Jethammer on several occassions and it feels the same. It's sad that Dedede got nothing, crossing my fingers for next update.

    So Diddy Kong got nerfed again.

    Well, it appears they gave the character many considered to be the worst in game, Charizard, a huge buff. From what I've read his upthrow now kills and can now combo off dthrow. So they're making some good buffs. Just guessing here but it's hasn't been too long since all the Diddy mains switched...

    Is Ryu too "advanced"?

    Haven't played him yet but his lack of disjointed hitboxes and range seems to make him rather easy to zone out. I had a lot of success with Dedede keeping many Ryus away today on FG. He couldn't really approach or get past my gordo wall and Ftilt. Granted it's early and nobody is good with him...

    So Diddy Kong got nerfed again.

    Really surprised they nerfed the hitbox. If they were going to do that you'd think they change the animation to match it atleast? It's awkward how they don't match now. And seemingly not nerfing any of the other top tiers doesn't make sense. Shiek and Rosa needed a nerf more than Diddy.

    Up coming possibilities

    I played maybe 10 matches today on For Glory, didn't notice any changes. Granted I wasn't really looking for them either though, I didn't think Nintendo was doing any balancing in this update.

    Data General Match-Up Discussion Thread (ask about matchups here!)

    Getting really good at powershielding to deal with villager and ROB's projectile spam :D

    Sub characters for Dedede?

    Yeah, I'd definitely agree with this. Does Shiek even have a bad matchup? The only problem with picking Shiek as your secondary is after you get good with her you'll start asking yourself why you're using Dedede as a primary because Shiek is so much better! Also she's very likely to get nerfed...

    Official (Read OP) DeDeDe Tour! Community MU Analysis

    Bleh, another bad matchup unfortunately. I don't have a ton of experience against good Luigi mains but the ones I've played have made me feel almost helpless to do anything because we can't approach and Luigi can outcamp us. The good luigi mains I've played sit back and space with fireball...

    How does everyone train for smash?

    Mostly playing on For Glory. Whenever you encounter awful players back out and get someone else to play. You don't get any better by playing horrible players, you probably get worse actually. Ocassionally you'll run into someone really good that's willing to play you tons of matches. That's who...
