TL;DR *salt*

I mean I do enjoy the way I do things, but only for myself. I guess what I'm saying is I don't wanna waste my time just sitting in my room and playing every character and then go to a tournament and get squashed because I haven't mastered anyone.

I need some serious help. I've been playing this game for about 2 years, give or take. I've been through Falco, Fox, Puff, Marth, Sheik, Falcon, and IC's. I love all of these characters and what they can do and I'm at least decent with all of them. This is because when I start liking a...

I started out a few months ago seriously training as a Puff main. Over the last few weeks though, I really haven't liked playing Puff at all. I've been using Fox as a secondary and I've gotten to the point where the only matchups I ever still need a Puff are against Falco and Sheik. So I've...

It's ridiculous honestly. Unless you can look me in the eye and tell me Fox is as braindead broken as Meta Knight, he shouldn't be SS. In my opinion SS should mean Super **** and it should be the tier where Roy and Kirby hang out.

I feel like Doc probably has the best Bair of the three, and Mario has the best Uair, but those aside Luigi's aerials are just so fast. He can get out of most combos by just mashing A and praying for a Nair, his Fair is crazy strong for its speed, and don't even get me started on his Dair. That...

Shroomed, an AMAZING player, used to do decently with him in tournaments, so people think he's a good character and don't realize it was really just Shroomed being amazing. It's the same situation with Axe and Pikachu, only Pikachu actually probably deserves to be where he is. Edit: Not...

I understand that multishining looks sick as heck, but really what makes it worth learning? If you can doubleshine you should have no problem with shield pressure or getting out of shield. What does being able to multishine do for your game as a Fox besides showing off that you can push buttons...

I have a friend who plays Marth and, as a Puff main, that's hell to begin with. So of course normally I'd go to my secondary, Sheik, since she's supposed to be a hard counter? It's his favorite matchup. He practically begs me to play Sheik and he bodies me every time I do. So I've been playing...

Bowser and Samus have the worst rolls bar none, but I think Puff is a close 3rd. And of course, anything is useful as a mixup. Rollout is useful as a mixup. That's what mixup means. Rolling to get out of shield pressure is only good if your opponent isn't good enough to chase it on reaction...

Rolling is usually a bad idea for any character, but for Jiggs it's an especially bad habit. Her roll animation lasts 34 frames and she's only invincible for 16 frames of it, so there are 18 frames where the opponent can get a completely free hit. I'd do your best to completely cut it out of...

Something I like to do against a defensive Marth is sit and crouch-wavedash right outside their SH Fair range. Usually they'll go for a Dtilt here, and if you can predict it you can jump over it and land a Bair/Fair before they can IASA to a Fair. The more classic responses are: A. Get a...

I didn't mean people complaining about their main being too low, I meant people complaining about their main being too high. Melee players seem to have a complex about blaming their shortcomings on their main being worse than Fox and that irritates me. It's especially bad with us Puff mains...

I was more referring to how Pichu can actually abuse Nair. Every character has good moves, except maybe Kirby lol. The problem is that they're all either too slow to use them (Zelda), have some other crippling weakness like crappy recovery (Ness, Roy). Or both of those problems (DK, Bowser...

Will this meme of every Melee player talking about how their main sucks all the time ever end? As for what this thread's actually about, I have a lot of mixed feelings on this tier list.. For one, and most here seem to agree, Fox does not need his own tier. This isn't Brawl and he isn't Meta...
