Are you treating this as gospel? Don't fall into the trap of assuming that all pro players know everything. This is just based on matchup charts created by pro players (who don't know every single matchup in the game) and in some cases, the discord community for each character when there isn't...

? What's crazy? Mario being the worst of the Top 10? Not really. I gave you brief reasons why he is not Top 5 material. A few Mario players think that he will struggle in the meta as long as there are characters like Cloud, Marth, Sonic, etc. I actually think he does alright vs. Cloud but he...

Next time, please use the Q & A thread. You will have to get used to his significantly slower speed. It's a noticeable difference compared to Mario. He still hits hard, so there's nothing to worry about here. Fair, while not that useful in neutral, is still bat**** strong. You can do down-throw...

No. Characters like Sheik, Diddy, Sonic, Bayo, Cloud, ZSS, etc. have more going for them or are less vulnerable. I think Mario is the worst of the Top 10, just behind Mewtwo actually. His poor range and lack of kill moves (even factoring for rage) hinder him.

Haven't had time to watch this yet but here are some friendlies between 2MC's Mario and B7Games' Doc. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/139968063 - Towards the end of the stream.

Can we use the Q and A threads for this? I'd probably put him as the worst character in the Top 10. He has issues against characters with safe-ish disjoints and he's fairly linear. However, his juggling game, combo game and above average frame data make him a tough matchup for most characters...

Aside from improving his recovery (which is still vague), these are not the right kind of buffs. Who cares about hitting people with fair? It's not that useful of a move for Doc or Mario. It's also not that hard to hit the sweetspot with either character. Huh, that sucks. Removing it would...

No thanks, I like my all purpose spinning top that's much faster than FLUDD and much more deadly against both high and low recoveries. Guys, don't complicate this. Better run speed and high jumps for sure. This will make his design much less undertuned.

Use the Q and A thread. In fact, start by going through that thread. Regarding what people think about him... uh, he's good? Probably one of the worst top tiers (alongside Mario), but that's still well above average. He struggles up close due to his slow attacks and large size, and he is...

Out of those characters: :4cloud:,:4marth:... that's about it. :4mario: does well against :4diddy: but he struggles against characters with safe-ish disjoints/range.

If anyone tells you that Villager wins the matchup, laugh at them and show them this crew battle. In my opinion, it's even, but if I had to put in someone's favour, I would definitely be swayed towards Doc. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/122941658 Guys, seriously consider B-reverse/Wavebounce Sheet.

Not sure why this is a separate thread. We have the Q & A thread. As for advice, here are some tips. 1. Watch good players and good Mewtwo mains play him. Understand what they are analyzing when fighting someone online and offline and incorporate their tactics in your gameplay. 2. Don't focus...

I would avoid using CPUs as a training mechanism. Playing against others and observing their habits will actually help you much more than playing against an AI. Now as far as outranging this 'grab-spamming, brain-dead character' (lol overrated), you should be spacing your fair and nair and...

What's giving you trouble? :4kirby:: Run away, down tilt, up tilt (occasionally). :4myfriends:: Shield his aerials and run away. Don't get too predictable with mini fireballs or down tilt or you will get hit. Fair when you can. :4link:: Pay attention to his zoning habits, especially with...
