I mean it's not a problem, but I was wondering because most of the time I joined a room there's a Kirby.

Well, it's safe to say that the For Fun crowd is almost all casuals (where many of them are quite young) and characters like Kirby and Pikachu appeal to those kinds of players

I know whenever I play with casuals (regardless of age or gender), I'd say Kirby is the second most common character chosen by them (for some reason, Lucas is first lol)

That is true. The cute characters would be chosen the most on For Fun. It was a little surprising as a Kirby to see a lot of the cute puffball a lot.

Really? I don't see that much Lucas on For Fun mode, I see more Kirby. Haha. Thanks for the answers. I had another question regarding another commonly used character in FF but in starting fights, but I'll probably make another thread.

Casuals like Kirby because they are most likely beginners that are still learning how to recover back to the stage/ledge. Kirby has 5 jumps + Final Cutter, so it makes recovering much easier for them.

Also, Stone is OP against CPUs, so people will think it's the best move ever online as well.

There are many other reasons, but those two I believe are the main ones.
