Those characters are the main perpetrators, especially Megaman. I think Megaman, a character that isn't considered a great tournament threat, would make a fine point of display to show off just how bad Dedede has it. About a montage that shows Dedede's flaws, could work but I don't think it...

Which is why I added Duck Hunt and Mr. Game & Watch, they too are niche characters but they too have no trouble toying with Dedede. Also, these are just suggestions. I think any character that's reasonably fast or has a projectile can do this.

How about a video not from a Dedede perspective, but from the perspective of several high and mid tiers, how they have no trouble getting in on dedede, whatever he does. Show off for example how a Falcon, Sonic, Zero Suit, Sheik, Toon Link, Game & Watch, Duck Hunt just don't have to respect...

Going as deep as humanly possible to fully understand Gordo maths. Now I don't know much coding, only basic coding logic, but after having generally read through the code in the spoiler, I think that the part that decides if Gordo sticks is not in it. I think the part in spoiler is the part...

Having looked at the patch forum, it looks like only select few characters got changes applied to them. I guess this makes sense because the focus was probably on the new characters' initial balancing and bug testing. Better luck next time, fellow De's (we'll need it).

That's a sizable buff, not bad. Hope it's a big one all round. But I still remember 13% on De's Fair being too much, who know what's going on in their mind.

I can understand why people think it's anti-competitive, "just pick a better character" was the default reaction in 64/melee/brawl. Except, these games had balance testing up until it was released, not after. Dedede has missing hitboxes on Dtilt, UpTilt, Fair, Bair and UpSmash animations, and I...

Would it be a good idea to contact Bill Trinen? He actively follows the competitive scene and also has a good Yoshi and Rosalina. I'm just not sure about contacting a high-up representative at NoA about it. I also don't follow him nor does he know me.

Only two things. First, Zero suit was zoning and baiting you out, jumping around, expecting you to approach or grab. Don't take the bait. Just run away until ZZS takes the initiative and wait for her to do something stupid, and punish. I think this is the best (only) way to have a chance against...

I have decided to test out something nobody asked: how valuable Armored Jet Hammer is. The question nobody except myself asked me before is: just how much. The following results are all from hitting Zelda in the exact middle (spawn) on Omega Gamer stage without DI, and I'll be referring to Jet...

Awesome matches. The Zero Suit one especially, it looked like the opponent didn't really know how to react to potential threats from Dedede, because it wasn't a bad player. The one versus Cloud... basically sums up the problems I've been having. It's one thing to have a bad recovery, but being...

A mixup that shieldbreaks, I'll have to test this out. Thing is dash attack has a lot of upstart, so I don't know how long the reaction-time the opponent needs to trigger thinking "hey, this is not downtilt, this is a shieldbreaking dashattack". Still very interesting though. I'm also trying...

I finally got round to uploading matches. Now I thought I played 5 matches against Jonathan, but apparently I only saved 4, maybe I only played 4 to begin with, I forgot. Also, please excuse the first match versus Jonathan's Falcon, the other three versus his ROB were a lot closer. Anyway...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFf6t3mTsvg This is just some (pixelated) footage I randomly found on YouTube, but it contains a kill I hardly ever see, even in tournaments: a Dair meteor on the ledge. R.O.B. does this all the time because of the massive hitbox and ease of pulling off, but it...

I see, I came home learning two things from this thread: a major edge-guard technique AND how to properly stick Gordo's. I've been training on Hyrule castle walls and it has confirmed I need to input exactly horizontally and end exactly tilting up. This is very precise and it hurts my thumb...
