    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Maybe, but Diddy has the mobility to make up for it. He also has good tilts and smashes whereas Megaman's tilts and smashes (bar pellets) are all situational or have significant recovery. Megaman relies on his specials for his neutral game, but Diddy can just switch to a more aggro strategy when...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Gotta say I disagree with this. Excluding the buffs to Hyper Bomb and Ice Slasher (custom moves), Megaman has been mostly nerfed. Leaf Shield has gotten end lag reductions, but Rush Cancelling was removed in the first patch (It was kind of broken, but Greninja can still cancel hitstun with...

    Meta Is 3 stock better than 2?

    I'll start by saying I prefer 3 stock. Stocks cannot be compared to rounds in traditional fighting games, even the ones where you keep your life from the previous round (King of Fighters, for example). Traditional fighting games have a set amount of health. No matter what, once that bar is...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    I don't think he's necessarily viable, he's still going to lose to the top tiers like everyone else. I just don't understand how people can put him in bottom 10 (or near last like ESAM) when it is clear that his neutral game is really good. I think he flaws put him right in the middle of mid...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Want to give my opinion on Duck Hunt I'm sure some of you guys have heard of Dandy Penguin, that Duck Hunt player from NC. He's my doubles partner and a long time friend from Marvel 3. So I've gotten to see a lot of Duck Hunt play, and I gotta say that anyone who thinks this character is...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Limit break buffs are great but you guys make it sound like you should always have full charge. IMO, it's better to only charge to like 80% limit most of the time (especially at lower percents). You don't need limit when both players are at low percents, so why remove access to so many of your...

    Q&A Who Is Diego Umejuarez? - Ryu Q&A Thread

    Does anyone know the angle, BKB, and KBG of the second hit of up throw? The one where he brings it downwards. I know it does 15%, just curious on the other numbers. Seems like it could be useful in doubles, along with down throw

    Mario 1.11 Patch Notes

    Am I the only one that thinks his jab needs fixing alongside Dair? A lot of the time vs characters with lower traction (Luigi is a good example but also vs less extreme cases), jab 1 knocks them too far away for jab 2/3 to connect but it puts them just far enough away to punish the whiffed jab...

    Social The MKGD: The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated

    I dont post often but would love that info PMed to me too. I've been switching to meta knight and haven't been able to test every character myself yet

    will we need a new mario matchup thread

    The old thread is very out dated and disorganized. We need a new one

    Official Viability Ratings v2 | Competitive Impressions

    Hey, long time lurker but I noticed you don't use FADC to land or recover. If you're going to recover low anyway, you can mix up air dodge with FADC. Your last stock was because of an air dodge read. If you had starting charging Focus Attack, Sheik would have had to back off after the whiffed...

    The King vs. Everyone Else Guide. (updated 5-19-08)

    So you debunk my theory just because YOU don't think it's plausible. As someone who is trying to help people with match-ups against other characters, you should be willing to test these theories, as opposed to laughing at them and dismissing them without a second thought. If you're not...

    Dedede Inhale

    The most enjoyable thing about the Inhale is attempting a Swallowcide while a Wolf or someone of the like is near the edge, but instead of Inhaling them, you stop the inhale before they are sucked up and the windbox pulls them far off the stage, and before they realize it, they are too far for...

    Dedede Inhale

    DeDeDe's Inhale has the windbox behind him. I think that Kirby's does too, but anyway. . . If you were to Inhale the Waddle, like you did, the Sandbag would still be pulled towards you. But since the Waddle took the effect of the Inhale, the Sandbag has no where to go but behind DeDeDe...
