    What gives you the MOST satisfaction in Brawl?

    Landing a meteor smash with Marth on someone who's been hanging on the edge for a little too long. That never gets old.

    Spike

    I used to have the exact same problem. Whenever I tried to get a meteor smash, I would accidentally fast-fall to my death. My solution (since I never thought of using the c-stick) was to use my first jump to get off the stage and above my opponent, then use my second jump to get back towards the...

    overall opinions on marth tequniques?

    Use Marth's speed and long reach with his sword to your advantage. Attack quickly and with precision. Avoid situations where you're caught up close to another character, especially heavy hitters. Marth's sword does the most damage when it hits with the tip, so really close combat will make his...

    VS Ike

    Virtually all of Marth's moves are faster than Ike's. The only place that Ike really has an advantage is in the power behind his moves. The best strategy is to be defensively offensive, if that makes any sense. Basically, you need to concentrate on your opponents movements. Stay just out of...

    Keep Losing? Try this...

    I have to say that I really like the advice on keeping your eyes on your opponent. I'd never though about it before, but I've always concentrated more on my own character. It seams so common sense now. Now that I've started watching my opponent carefully, I've drastically improved.

    Marth Question and Answer Thread - Incomplete Percent Data added!

    I don't think anyone suggested this, but it looks to me like Marth is using his counter.

    Pit: offensive character or defensive character

    I'd think he would have to be offensive in order to get kills. Quick attacks and maneuverability lend themselves well to combos. And I'm assuming that most of Pit's attacks won't hit too hard. I'm guessing he'll play sorta like Marth, but with a better recovery move.
