    Max air time for each character

    I was curious about how long each character could stay in the air without landing. This can be tracked by the "air time" metric on the victory screen. I tested with the following metrics: Special smash (slow motion). This gives greater granularity to the air time numbers (which are reported to...

    The Royal Guide/Faq of King Dedede. (Updated 7/26)

    "King Dedede is the only heavyweight character with amazing recovery." This is inaccurate. Snake has an amazing recovery, and he is definitely a heavyweight.

    X or Y to jump?

    I use Z to jump, and X to grab. It makes more sense, because the thumb doesn't have to move as much (you often have to jump and attack at the same time, but rarely grab and attack)

    The H2YL Tier List - The Real Sh*t

    I posted this earlier, does anyone else feel this way? Not that I don't want Kirby to be top tier. Wow. You're whining because Marth isn't good enough for you? Considering that he beats out 7/8 of the cast? And has a 4-6 matchup against Meta Knight?

    The H2YL Tier List - The Real Sh*t

    I'm surprised that Kirby made it so high in the tier list. He's an excellent character and all, but I think he should be moved down. He suffers from the Bowser problem, meaning that he has many good matchups, and only five bad matchups (apart from some very minor disadvantages). Unfortunately...

    Brawl Character Match-Up chart

    I don't think Kirby is a Falco counter. Kirby is a Fox counter, maybe a Wolf counter. Falco does have the advantage in spacing, which is quite an advantage. Kirby has the advantage in ko power, comboing/chain throwing, aerial game, it's easier for Kirby to gimp Falco than vice versa, although...

    Kirby vs Falco Matchup

    lol@ people saying things like "well, Kirby's light" "upsmash kills Kirby at 80-90%" Kirby is lighter than Falco. However, Kirby kills Falco earlier than Falco kills Kirby. Falco's usmash kills Kirby, on FD, at 108%. Kirby's kills Falco at 95%. Falco's only move that kills earlier than usmash...

    Brawl Character Match-Up chart

    Quite a few moves lead into Kirby's smashes. I don't think most Kirby players have trouble landing a fsmash. And here's the specific data of all of Kirby's and Falco's killing moves on each other under 150% (before the attack's damage). All from center of Final Destination, all smashes...

    Kirby's Matchup Rankings

    Gimping and edgeguarding aside, Kirby has more kill options and more powerful kill options than Falco. From center of FD, Kirby's fsmash kills Falco at lower %'s than any of Falco's moves kill Kirby. Kirby's stone, hitting Falco on the ground, kills him at about 95 (no DI). Since it is a...

    Brawl Character Match-Up chart

    I would like to revive the Kirby vs. Falco debate, which stopped when I went to summer camp for 2 weeks. In my opinion, Kirby has a small advantage, but I would be happy with a neutral. Earlier, Falco players said Falco's smashes > Kirby's smashes. Falco's Fsmash and Kirby's have similar...

    Brawl Character Match-Up chart

    Ok, let's talk about two scenarios with Kirby and Falco. Scenario 1: Game start, Falco starts using his blaster. Kirby ducks. As you would see it, Falco is trapping Kirby in the duck. Another way to see it is that Kirby is trapping Falco in the lasers. They are both even right...

    Kirby's Matchup Rankings

    Yeah, I would say Mario has an advantage. His bair is just too good. I don't know about Luigi. I haven't played any good Luigis, but I would think his recovery could be gimped, and also that Kirby's fair outranges Luigi's? I don't think his fireballs would be as annoying; if done from the air...

    The Big Book of Fox Matchups

    Me neither, I would say it's 7-3. I accept that pivoting and sliding shields can get around it. I am surprised that Fox's dair beats Kirby's bair, because Kirby would be hitting the top part of Fox's body, and it has deceptively long range. I doubt it, because I don't think that Fox goes out...
