Yeah, Kirby's F-Smash ***** Pit's Forward-B. I punish that all day long.

I can't agree with that...at all. Iori destroyed my Pit with his Meta Knight at the Waba tournament. Meta Knight has more range, moves WAY faster, and a better recovery that is suited to countering Pit's own recovery. My guess is that range is the only thing that efficiently combats Meta Knight, although I don't know for sure.pit=mk counter
Put it this way. MK's f tilt reaches further than Marth's forward smash.AND HE HAS A SWORD!!!!!!!!
confirm/deny??: metaknight has longer sword than marth.
Meta Knight is about as pick-up-and-play as Sheik was in Melee, and at this stage in the game's life, that's a pretty big deal.I think you're overplaying how good he is. Its not a race to kill your opponent, so dying early damage-wise is what matters; not time wise. Like I said, I think my playstyle is why I disagree with you so much on MK. I don't break my neck trying to run my face into his sword. I try to play defensively and place my power moves carefully. And I'm not beneath being a with ***** and shooting him with my pew pew lazer gun to make him fight more on my terms so that I can set up those solid hits that will take him out at low life.
As far as the MK vs Marth comparison; I don't play with Marth, so I never have Marth vs. MK matches. The point I was making is that, his priority vs anyone I play with, is just as bad as Marth's priority vs. anyone I play with.
I disagree with your comment about how MK can hurt you even in the hands of a total noob. You're implying that he's pick up and play and win status, and I just don't see it. In the hands of a good player, yeah, he'll be a tough opponent (like many other characters), but he's not some EZ pick auto-win character, and he's far from broken.
When everything's said and done, he's a good character, but under all that fancy attire, he's still a puffball that flies off the stage at <100%.
MK johns
No johns son. Iori is too good. If you have that much trouble against MK, play Snake. loltl;dr but easily seen as Metaknight JOHNZ
:[No johns son. Iori is too good. If you have that much trouble against MK, play Snake. lol
Edit: Wow, even more MK johns than thought originally. You guys just need to get over it. Soon you guys will start QQing about Snake and his rediculous ****. XD
If I can use him with my dumb *** playing, anyone can use him.:[
Snake is laggy and slow, so regardless of how cool/amazing he is in Mike G's hands, I think I'll stick with my current go.
I'm not saying that I'm annoyed at Meta Knight's inherent goodness, so much as I'm saying that he's got a lot of tools at his disposal. I didn't complain about Sheiks in Melee, and I'm not complaining about Meta Knight, although they're both ridiculously good by default.
Also, Iori really is too good.
I can use him, too. I'm not saying that he's too hard to. I'm just saying that I know for a fact that neither of us can play like Mike G with him right now.If I can use him with my dumb *** playing, anyone can use him.
Or can I? *dramatic music plays* Probably not, but hey, I still say Snake is the easiest person to counter Meatknight with. I got my one Brawl tourney with 10 people attending that proves this. Yup.I can use him, too. I'm not saying that he's too hard to. I'm just saying that I know for a fact that neither of us can play like Mike G with him right now.
If I can beat some of the Metaknights I have played, MK is not teh broken.well guys i'm just gonna have to go to more tourneys and watch more players, because right now a character with priority over everything that it unpunishable isborderline broken in my eyes lol. i hesitate to say "broken" because when I think broken I think Akuma in Super Turbo and of course MK is noway comparable to that, but yeah
Meatknight ftw :3Or can I? *dramatic music plays* Probably not, but hey, I still say Snake is the easiest person to counter Meatknight with. I got my one Brawl tourney with 10 people attending that proves this. Yup.
Also, Luigi counters Olimar and Pikachu counters ZSamus. Mad? Maybe. Crazy? Maybe.
Leopard skin snake counters. I CALL IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Is he broken? Nah. He's got some counters out there. I don't really think Snake counters him, but he does have a pretty even matchup IMO.
Regard the online lag and i will agree with that. I used Toon Link when i fought JWT online ( MK vs. TL ) and i did win against him. Now offline i'd still say he would do good too, he's got alot good moves and the B-air is great ( seeing as how you can juggle people with it ).Marth and Toon Link I think would do well. >_>
this is not based on "paper" this is based on many many real life matches that I have played, with and against metaknight. when I play metaknight, I can land a hit whenever I press the attack button regardless of what my opponent is doing. when I play against metaknight, i can't punish any of his mistakes. i don't know if I've been soo unlucky to have simply played all of the best metaknights but i doubt it. its possible that there is some secret to fighting him that I dont know, so i'm gonna have to figure that out.Yall are really making him out to be a lot better on paper than he really is. If you honestly think he is borderline broken, pick him up and play against a handful of other good players and see how beatable he really is. You're all good players so I'm confident that you can play him well enough, especially considering how EZ pick/pick-up-and-play yall think he is. I even volunteer myself to be your MK tackling dummy, cause maybe there's just something I'm missing about him and I would love to see what all the OP talk is about that I'm apparently blind to and its not like I consider myself a great player or anything. Maybe I just haven't played against enough good players who play with him.
1. Choose Leopard Skin Snake. 2. Be NES n00b while you do this. 3. Ftilt. 4. Jab. 5. Camp with tools available.this is not based on "paper" this is based on many many real life matches that I have played, with and against metaknight. when I play metaknight, I can land a hit whenever I press the attack button regardless of what my opponent is doing. when I play against metaknight, i can't punish any of his mistakes. i don't know if I've been soo unlucky to have simply played all of the best metaknights but i doubt it. its possible that there is some secret to fighting him that I dont know, so i'm gonna have to figure that out.
its also possible that you see things differently because you play wolf, who is the second most overpowered character in this game lol maybe wolf is a better match up
Maybe there's something you're missing and maybe there's something I'm missing. I suggest you pick him up and get good with him. Play with me online. That way we can both see what the other is seeing to some degree.its possible that there is some secret to fighting him that I dont know, so i'm gonna have to figure that out.

Metaknight > Wolf by a long green mile. Wolf is nowhere near OP in this game. I think Munk beat me once with Wolf because he spammed lasers and I was GnW and didn't even think to use my bucket. But other than that, no, he isn't OP.this is not based on "paper" this is based on many many real life matches that I have played, with and against metaknight. when I play metaknight, I can land a hit whenever I press the attack button regardless of what my opponent is doing. when I play against metaknight, i can't punish any of his mistakes. i don't know if I've been soo unlucky to have simply played all of the best metaknights but i doubt it. its possible that there is some secret to fighting him that I dont know, so i'm gonna have to figure that out.

Come on man.....Unforunately for Yoshi, it seems he can't do anything against spammy Wolf players, especially online. Seriously, Midguy.
Nobody is calling any character unfair. Anyone that writes off their losses simply because the other character was "better" isn't worth playing, too.Come on man.....
I guess I'm not allowed to play Wolf. I won't even touch Metaknight because I can imagine the outcry then. Seriously though, we played a lot of matches tonight, and among those that beat your Yoshi were:
Wolf
Zelda
Sonic
Pokemon Trainer
Luigi
Olimar
I knew you were trying to learn how to play Yoshi, so I gave you the respect of mixing up my character selection and playing with characters I'm not that great with, while still giving you my best character every now and then. Wolf is my favorite character, and I'm best with him because I play with him 90% of the time; not just when I want to, but when people ask to play my Wolf because they want to get better against him. But between everyone crying OP and comments like that, it makes me not even want to play him. To be honest its insulting. I play for fun, but when you can't even play the character that you like because people insult your playstyle or imply that the only reason you win is because the character you pick, it sucks the fun out of the game.

If you want to play with Wolf, do it. He's a fun character to play as.
If you want to play with Meta Knight, do it. No one wants to hear someone whine about "character johns," so let them know that when the complaints start.
Wario's ridiculously good, and I know it. Regardless, I use him because he's fun as hell to me, and because WarioWare is one of my favorite game series of all time.
Don't let someone else's actions suck the fun out of the game for you.
