How do you all think Wolf's matchups will turn out? I just hope he can wreck Rosalina, Luigi, Sheik, and Shulk, personally.
If he stays mostly the same or gets some nice buffs, he'll probably be as good or even better than he was in Brawl.
Chain grabbing and recovery were his greatest weaknesses and both of those are either already fixed (removing chain grabbing, ledge trumping) or will 99% be fixed/buffed (acting out of side b, larger ledge grab sweetspot) and those fixes are going to help him a lot. So with all that said, I'd say he'll probably won't have too many bad match-ups. And if there is, they probably won't be super bad ones.
I'm 99% positive that he'll do better against
&
since chain grabbing is gone now. Especially
since that was Wolf's worst match-up in Brawl due to that deadly down throw he had against him.
&
will also be interesting since chain grabbing was something they had against Wolf in Brawl which they don't have anymore.
is another one since he isn't the dominate force he was in Brawl and Wolf did okay against him in Brawl compared to most of the cast.
Not sure what to think about Luigi, Sheik, or Shulk, but fsmash, ftilt, spaced bairs, the spike on the blaster and maybe uptilt could help against
since those moves could help get rid of luma quickly. Down smash could work too thanks to its power and speed. Upsmash might be an option as well.
This is all theory and speculation and I could be wrong completely, but unless he gets some massive nerfs, I think it's safe to say he'll be at least mid/upper mid tier.
But at the end of the day, if he's as fun, or even more fun than he was in Brawl, I'll be happy.
And if all else fails, there's always the chance of potential buffs via patches if necessary.
