    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    That's all well and good, but can you show me one example of where this theorycrafting has played out outside of online quickplay? Real question, because I've yet to see anything close to an oppressive Puff in high level play. Many of the characters you placed below her have some actually...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    I'd say :ultjigglypuff: is definitely in contention for worst character, especially after the buffs to Mac and Bowser Jr. She's definitely a nowhere near the level of :ultridley:&:ulttoonlink:. Outside of a few decent matchups, she has little answer to so many characters. The one thing she has...

    Update here: the Z-axis tail things apparently haven't changed at all in this patch, it has been that way in previous versions. Any perceived differences from before is unfortunately placebo.

    Does anyone have impressions of :ultmewtwo: viability after the patch? Haven't had the chance to play yet. Looks like he got some significant buffs, including speeding up his jab which is awesome. Uair and utilt have "Increased attack power and maintained launch distance." Does that mean...

    Regarding the quality of this thread, the biggest thing I find "low quality" is character mains constantly bringing up one specific character in any possible conversation. I understand it's a natural thing to do, heck I'm guilty to some extent, but we should avoid it especially when it's limited...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Curious, why do so many people consider :ultjigglypuff: anything but low tier? Basically half of the characters mentioned as low tier have better tourney results than her, including: :ultzelda::ultrosalina::ultincineroar::ultlucas::ultsheik::ultdoc::ultgnw: and :ulticeclimbers:. Can someone...

    I'm surprised this went unresponded to... Of the new discoveries as of late, this seems probably the most significant since attack canceling. Essentially guaranteed 50/50s on tech situations. He mentioned it works for most characters, even slow ones depending on their roll distance. I wonder...

    Feel free to send me some stats to incorporate, or point out innacuracies to fix, and I can update the Agility Score to be more accurate... The main things we are missing: Jump Height Hurtbox Size Special Move Agility Bonus (ex: quick attack & flip jump, this may be hard to calculate) If we...

    Sounds like post-melee Jigglypuff actually: a sluggish bait and punish character that doesn't get enough reward on the punish, and doesn't have the tools (ie. projectiles) to bait. Definitely a recipe for low tier. On the topic of Bayonetta, some people here think she's overrated... but I...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Yeah, I agree with most of that. I'm sure there's a more accurate set of weights to use (air speed is likely a bit more important than run speed for example). Fall speed multiplier is missing too which would factor the fall speed mixup you mentioned. Hurtbox size and jumps are other major...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    I created an "agility score" that I thought was intersting. I ranked characters based on a mixture of Run Speed, Air Speed, Air Acceleration, Fall Speed, Initial Dash, and Walk Speed. Basically, I took the average of each attribute and then took a weighted average for character based on that...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Yeah, :ultpit::ultdarkpit: kinda suffer the same as :ultfalco:, decent characters with somewhat poor mobility that are overshadowed by characters with far more oppressive options above them. On a broader note, it seems like characters with low speed, particularly low air speed, need some...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Falco is a character that is great at comboing opponents to 50 or 60 damage, then can't do a whole lot and really struggles to secure kills. His blaster is massively outclassed by wolf's, and most other projectiles in the game for that matter. It says a lot when :ultyounglink: arrows are a...

    Very interesting to see Zero lose to Armada. It looks like his decision to avoid tournaments has really hurt him competitively... Problem is, we've already had bucketloads of respectful Ness conversation, and there's nothing really new to talk about (or at least nothing new has been brought...

    Do people act like they're miles apart? I haven't really seen it... Seems like most people put them both in low tier, or mid-low at best. I do agree that direct comparisons are rather silly.
