What do you think is the best/most useful B move? this can be up down neutral or tilted b.

IMO yohi's egg throw (up+b) is the most versatile in the game. You can put them just about anywhere and can be the final nail in the coffin when edgeguarding somebody

I would say the best Up B would be Mewtwo. The teleport is unbelievably useful. No other single move in the entire game gives a character so many movement options over such a distance with such a small amount of lag. The move has no attacking characteristics itself, but it can be a setup for plenty of other moves.

Samus has the best side B. The missile is such a good projectile.

Down B would probably be Fox or Falco.

Neutral B could be taken by a whole bunch of people.

The best up-B really has no competition. The fortress owns all other up-Bs.

For down-B, I would honestly choose Falco's reflector over Fox's. But that's only really because I play Falco, and I find his shine to be so much cooler. Falco's shine combos > Shine spikes, just because they're more fun ^_^

The over-B is fairly contested. But I would actually have to go with Link's boomerang. It's such a great projectile, and I've been screwed up many times by plenty of boomerangs, especially those coming back.

As for the neutral-B. Hmmm, I would have to choose Falco again for that. SHL is such a great approach.

Up+B: Bowser's Fortress
B: Falco's Laser
Side+B: Jigg's Pound/ Doc's Cape
Down+B: Falco's shine

Imagine ICs with the Shine and laser... Desynced laser>shine combos would pwn all...

A well postioned mid-air Falcon Punch is the best B move in my opinion.

And Fast Fox, c'mon, this thread doesn't fail.....does it?

Best neutral B is Kirby's ; eating people has the capacity to give you every B move in the game.

Plus you can Kirbycide.

Neutral B - Kirby (like someone said, its every other B plus Kirbycide and other combo capability)
Up+B - Bowser or Marth (used as shield-counter), G&W and Zelda (Recovery)
Side+B - Marth or Roy (Guard breaker, recovery, mindgames, spike, etc.)
Down+B - Shines??? Blah... I rather go Bowser on this one... Why??? Try reading stupid random player dash dancing stupidly and embarrass them with a butt slam...
