Mewtwo would be a solid pick. Just space Mario out with F-air and start combos with D-tilt. It's pretty straightforward.

In a low or mid level setting with Marios that don't know how to space properly, then Marth wins. At a higher level of play, Marth's weaknesses against Mario (combo food, weaker frame data, bad recovery, etc) become MUCH more apparent. Same goes for DK. If we are basing MUs on high level play...

:4diddy: I'll go with either 50:50 or 55:45 Mario's favor. I mean, it's iffy. Diddy gets comboed like mad by Mario but Mario is pretty susceptible to Banana. Pretty close MU either way. :4link: I am not really aware of what other Marios think about this one. However, I would say it's 60:40...

No, in fact. I am not referring to timed matches. What I am saying is that it seems unfair that if Ness KOs someone off the top blast zone with PK Thunder 2 (his U-special) and he happens to be offstage after launching them, they can get saved by the Star KO animation since Ness will die first...

I don't think this is really the right place to post this. However, I will try to help. Toon Link's weakness is that when the opponent gets in (in other words, gets past his wall of projectiles), he get's comboed very hard or punished with a strong move. This means that against characters like...

To be honest, I'd rather have no Star KOs/Screen KOs at all. They cause so many unfair losses just because someone gets a KO offstage but then dies before the Star KO animation is finished. I think it would make things less random if they were removed altogether.

Cape really does mess with Tink's projectile game. Also, Tink has absolutely no combo breakers which means that once Mario gets in, he's gonna be dealing big damage. I think Mario definitely beats Tink solidly since he can combo him hard, edge-guard his slow predictable recovery, and reflect his...

I'm absolutely loving Planet Robobot! Who would've thought that Kirby would someday stomp around in a giant mech suit?

It's not really johning. If you are playing as a weaker character, you have a lower chance of winning. Simple as that.

On another note, what is it you have against poor Link?

While I would agree that popularity is probably correlated with viability, I think there are examples of situations where this simply is not the case. Take Ganondorf, for example; He is very popular at the local and regional level due to being very unforgiving of mistakes (the kinds of mistakes...

I can't agree more. Ryu has had one of the weirdest lifetimes of any Smash character. Sometimes he gets a good result here or there and people are like: "Oh man! This character is insane and could be top 3!" but then other times he goes weeks or months without doing too much and people are like...

He's not "forcibly telling us" anything. It's his opinion and that's fine. If he thinks Marth is overrated, he must have some reason and we should just let him believe what he wants. As we all know, group consensus does not make something true. If everyone in the thread agrees that Marth is not...

This list has really come together. Obviously, it's a bit outdated since results change literally weekly. So, for example, Bowser and Mega Man might be higher now. But, overall very nice list. Where are we going after this?

Currently, the best way to contribute is to check out the Mario Discord. Go here to see all character Discords: http://smashcord.com/character.html Same goes for you too, @Zonderion, the Mario Discord is a great place to learn the character. There are tons of people there that are ready and...
