Asking mum how to talk to a lady
I would consider my most used/best/tournament characters to be and (I also use and , but I consider those two to be more secondary territory, and use them as secondaries mainly because I like them as characters - what's curious, is that I actually prefer Bayonetta and ZSS over Rosalina and Marth for doubles games...).
I consider Rosalina my overall most threatening character, if only because she's a higher tiered character, but I personally struggle/have a tough time against Meta Knight (for obvious reasons), Bayonetta, and Cloud (before I get all the "Rosalina beats Cloud" stuff, I get she doesn't particularly get whooped by him, more so I just struggle against Cloud in general). For me, Marth handles these MU's better than Rosalina, or am at least able to compete with those three far easier with Marth (I even have opinions that Marth can theoretically beat Cloud, but that's for a different topic), and I'm able to cover most MU's in the game with them alone. Rosalina also covers up Marth's most troublesome MU's, such as Sheik and Sonic.
That said, aside from Meta Knight, I don't feel Rosalina outright loses to many other characters, so I am pretty sure I could just use many other characters and get the same result (but I use Marth because I love him/used him in other games). Sure, Rosalina might have a few minor disadvantages (potentially Cloud, Bayonetta, Marth himself maybe etc), but I don't think she outright loses to anybody other than Meta Knight.
TL:DR, Rosalina and Marth seem to work together quite well, for me at least.
While I can manage just fine with just Rosalina and Marth, soon, I would like to get to a point where I can consider all 4 of those characters on the same level, and just select who I am feeling on the day (similar to how False states he just uses Marth or Sheik depending on who he's feeling on the day). I feel I'm almost there with Bayonetta, so that's a start. Using a decent handful of characters isn't a bad idea either; then, if I come up against a bad MU for one of those characters, I have 3 others I can switch between. I'm also not just using characters to cover bad MU's either, but I'm using them because I legitimately like them all as characters, which I feel is a huge step in the mental part of the game; I feel if you don't particularly like the character for one reason or another, and you're just using them because they cover a bad MU, you aren't going to have the desire to improve or push them to their limits, but hey, that's my view.
