Smash Apprentice
So I just got finished with this tournament. A decent number of entrants, a lot of newbies. I got up to winner's semis and lost to Triple R, no shame in that. The first game was extremely close but with some practice I can manage. But then I go to loser's semis, and I face none other than a Rosalina & Luma main.
This particular Rosalina main just got done beating Minnesota's #10 ranked player 2-0 his previous match, including a 3 stock on the last game. I proceeded to get 3 stocked twice in a row, both using Ness and then Fox. I'm at a complete loss right now, when Rosa mains play other characters I can remain competitive or even beat them. But then they play Rosa and I have trouble even making it competitive. I have decent tournament caliber mains with Pac-Man, Ness, and Fox, but none of them are good matchups. If the Rosa player sucks I can win, but against a player that knows what they're doing I can't find any weaknesses whatsoever.
I've looked all over trying to find a counter to Rosa, but I can't find any. I'm pretty much at a loss on how to approach this character, and it's ruining the game for me. I feel like I'm going to have to learn how to play Rosa just to play dittos so I have a chance against a competent player. Is anyone else finding success against high level Rosa players? I would ask for advice and strategies on how to beat her, but unless I can play against a good Rosa to practice, it doesn't seem like it's going to help much.
