I read that in Solid Snake's voice, it's hard not to when you start a sentence with "Colonel, I'm trying to sneak", and this scenario would explain the butt reduction he got between games.

If my avatar didn't give it away, I use the red boxart Ridley. I think Ridley got dealt a great hand though since I feel like he doesn't have a single bad color scheme. I was originally planning to alternate colors more since I liked a lot of them but I initially jumped into things with the Red...

No Ridley should be able to mindlessly spam side special, it's the slowest command grab in the game and lacks super armor which leaves him vulnerable both during and after the attack. Options to deal with it. If Ridley just throws it out in neutral then here are options to deal with it...

Might not be Ridley specific, but I feel my collection of crooks is coming along rather nicely.

The crouching sort of depends on the context of it. If the other Ridley starts crouching at the beginning of the match then they're doing it to pay respects to a fellow Ridley player, a short break in the action to goof around sort of sets the tone that it's a friendly game and they're excited...

Indeed, I think the base newcomers most at risk are the echoes, Simon/Richter (3rd party), and Incineroar if his character doesn't hold the test of time. Ridley and K. Rool should hopefully stick for being major fan demands, Isabelle is both popular and somewhat became the face of Animal...

Do I miss the days where Ridley wasn't in Smash? Mmm... it's nostalgic, but not really. There was a lot of thrill and strong emotions being on both the Ridley and K. Rool train for all of this time, and that has died down now that they are both in the game, but right now it's more the fact that...

I remember my first time going against Jigglypuff, I ended up got bodied feeling like it was a helpless losing matchup, but I ended up being able to adapt and start turning it around so that I was taking a lot of the victories in the rematches. Jigglypuff is scary not just because we're a large...

I watched all of your videos and there's quite a lot to unpack here, there's a lot of areas I can notice could use improvement.

Yeah, it took a good moment to get a good grasp on Ridley. With Donkey Kong you're a big bruiser who closes in and wallops your foe, everything flows and has the right momentum for that as you grab them and toss them around, send them packing with a super-armor punch, or get them off the stage...

I think Ridley could stand to be a bit better in the air considering he's always been his most threatening in the air, in Metroid Prime he moves around like a fighter jet through the skies. There would be ways to buff him in that area that wouldn't make him broken I think, but if you want to...

1&2) That's an issue of input on your part. If you're softly tilting your controller to the side or down then Ridley will walk or crouch, but if you want to run or pass through platforms then you've got to give the control stick a quick strong flick in the direction you want to go, and if you...

Well yeah, you need to wait for your attack animation to finish before you throw out a new one, that's not just Ridley, that's every character. 1) You have to wait for him to finish spitting all of the fireballs that you've charged before he can move, but he can move while they're still...

I think a big problem with online is it doesn't have a casual mode. There should be casual and ranked, but instead there's just ranked and the alternative is Battle Arena's which carries a slew of its own problems. In Smash Bros. there's always going to be players whose ideal time in the game...

Ridley doesn't have the best recovery while being edge-guarded, he's got some weaknesses there like a fairly lengthy startup on Wing Blitz, but as the one doing the edge guarding we have the options to basically cover every angle they choose to come back from and then get back to the stage...
