Will the discord at the beginning of the thread be our official character discord?

Hello everyone, I'm unsure if this is the thread to ask, but would there by anychance be an Olimar Discord I can get a link to? Olimar main here looking to really get a lot better in Ultimate.

Thanks for these! I've been trying to search for good stuff to use with Falco as well, so this will help a lot.

I really hope he makes it into Smash. Though Sakurai did say that he couldn't add too many "characters". My desperation meaning that characters is plural, and maybe he'll do multiple ballots or take the top 3? I don't know. I'm honestly fine with anything as long as we don't get Dolan Duck.

As an Olimar main, I have to disagree with the landing option. Normally if I'm going to land, I keep a yellow or purple with me and use the insane control and speed on winged pikmin to return to neutral. I've fought quite a few battles against ChaoticRoy here who is also a Pit main and a good...

Same as the OP. I may not be the best, but I'm always up for good matches, as I'm learning. My NNID is Goromir.

Same as the others if you guys are still adding to discuss and such! Matt.corn43

As uncommon as it will sound for my first secondary, I play Falco when it comes to fast characters that like to rush me down. Usually if the person is just always running in, I throw out reflector so it makes them trip.....kind of a mind game thing but do it enough times and it really...

Thank you for the quick responses, my friends. I'll try and incorporate them as suggested. Even simply explained, I think I understand how to better go about things. :)

So, as someone that mains Olimar and tries his hardest at Pikmin management, I've been wondering if there are any situations where a yellow pikmin is absolutely preferred over the other colors. I recognize yellows have a slightly bigger hitbox and a longer hitsun, their arc when thrown, and...

As the others here said most dismissed him as low tier and bad because they were so used to his brawl incarnation. The fact that Olimar's pikmin problems on the 3DS version were the first to make themselves public didn't help him at all either because it became many peoples' first impression of...

Whenever I have to fight Toon Link, I usually just outcamp him. The pikmin pretty much stop whatever he's throwing at you when they clash with the projectile, and you should be able to keep plucking and throwing them if you want to get in close. I usually just hang back and throw whites though...

Very nice advice. I was having a bit of trouble in this matchup, but I'll take those points and utilize them. :)

I use the pro controller, but personally for me, I still have the right stick(similar to the c-stick) set to do smash attacks. I tend to do so just because I have a problem throwing out tilts instead of fsmash, and I do love throwing out a nice red pikmin for my fsmash. :) .....or purple with a...
