Young Link and Mario are both pretty viable as far as low tiers go, but Kirby is atrocious.I started messing around with other characters.
Young link is mad legit. so much ground and air speed. and a good wavedash too. why is this guy not high tier???
Same thing with mario and Kirby. Mario's definitely tournament viable being an all-around character. Kirby has a solid wavedash and good moves.
I dont know about the current metagame very much but these three, plus pikachu can really improve. Or am I looking at this from a different perspective?
responses are in bold.I started messing around with other characters.

You need more than that to be a high tier.

Mario is not atrocious, hes just not good.
Kirby doesnt have anything going for him. Hes the worst character in melee.

Mario is underplayed, pickachu only has one really amazing player who wins things, but i think pickachu has potential.
Kirby sucks worse than Roy minus Mewtwo minus pichu.
Well, that's what I meant- figuring out your playstyle and the characters that best suit you by playing against computers, not specifically how much you win or lose against them. Just to be able to work out a feel of them and whether or not you enjoy that feel.Never judge what character you're best with based off of your performance versus computers.
It's best to go with whatever play-style you like the most, whatever feels most natural to you. Whatever character reflects your style of play the most.
There are more mario players than Pika players, but, like all mid/low tiers, the majority of people who use him main somebody else and don't use him much in tournament.Mario is underplayed, pickachu only has one really amazing player who wins things, but i think pickachu has potential.

Yeah, t1mmy's kirby is good, but I'm pretty sure he hasn't used kirby competitively since 2007. I talked with him about it once. He told me that in order to do anything well he had to invent tricks to deal with higher tier characters. It was all quite cool.Kirby has more to his disposal than this, but this is what I know from my little experience. There's a really good kirby player in oregon, and I've seen him take sets off of pretty good players as kirby. Like Bowser, they have to know the matchup or else Kirby can actually be slightly viable.
Of course I use terms like "good" relative to Pichu, not to the entire character roster.
I was actually talking about TheSickKirby hahaYeah, t1mmy's kirby is good, but I'm pretty sure he hasn't used kirby competitively since 2007. I talked with him about it once. He told me that in order to do anything well he had to invent tricks to deal with higher tier characters. It was all quite cool.
^This is a great quote right here I agree.Shadocat- If you loveTLink'sYlink's feel, go for it. If you like Mario or Kirby's feel better, go for it. You can secondary as many characters as you want- and if you like two characters equally, you can also double main. The more you like the character you are playing as, the more you will want to devote time and practice to them, and the better you will become.
I have no idea who that is, so he probably hasn't been in the community for a long time. Timmy and tommy are much bigger into brawl now, although timmy likes to play melee now and again. He plays fox.I was actually talking about TheSickKirby haha
and yeah, RRR is great
I haven't played timmy or his brother yet. Aren't they on brawl now?
I know what you're talking about. Have you noticed that pikachu has the "minimum lag landing animation" when landing on the floor? (I say minimum, although I'm not sure if it's just the fact that he has no falling animation) Try doing a horizontal quick attack where pikachu starts at frame 1 off the ground after jumping. If you do this correctly you cannot do a second zip and pikachu immediately lands on the ground with the minimum lag animation.More on Pikachu though, have you guys noticed that when you quick attack and land on the floor a certain way, you can't do your 2nd zip?
For instance, if you're on Battlefield standing on one of the side platforms, and you do a standing quick attack diagonally downwards towards the center of the stage, you can't do your 2nd zip. What's up with that?
Actually if you could consistently pull that off multiple times in a row, you could be invincible indefinitely. There's some frame data around here somewhere.Another thing I recently noticed about QA is if you drop slightly from the ledge and then do it, Pikachu will grab the ledge before he actually goes anywhere (similar to fox and his up-b). The pause is really slight though so it doesn't seem to have any merit, it is just kind of cool.
Yeah bro, go for it. I think Pikachu is becoming more and more of a character that people consider viable. It is very possible he will rise to C tier with the 2012 list, but even if he doesn't he's still the king of D tier.I'm pretty sure that fell through because people realized he was quitting or whatever. So anyway I sucked at that tournament, but I decided to switch from falco to pikachu. I've been trying to for a while and just haven't had the balls to do it. After talking to some people there I realized I totally should.
