Some changes:

MK > Wolf (used to be MK >> Wolf but both boards agree on 65/35 atm)

Falco doesn't have a >> vs Wolf anymore, being able to tech the chainspike (Falco boards have > Wolf; Wolf boards have = Falco)

Wolf doesn't have the advantage over Diddy according to the Wolf match-up thread. We have it as = Diddy...

Wolf = Mario (accoridng to all the other Mario match-up threads)

Wolf = Zamus

Edit: we also changed the Luigi match-up to even (Luigi boards haven't done it yet)

I love this chart. :) Let's add some numbers agreed on both sides.

Falco / Snake : 55 / 45 or 50 /50. Even anyways.
Falco / DK : 60 / 40 on Falco Boards (discussed with DK mains), 55/45 on DK boards...
Falco / Fox : 55 / 45.
Falco / Wolf : 60 / 40. (Wolf boards have 50:50... yeah ok). Anyways it's not a big advantage anymore.
Falco / Pit : 55/45.


I could give you a lot more, on Ganondorf by example, but the match-ups are not completely agreed on both sides yet.

Btw guys, I'm not updating until after the new tier list comes out. (Jan 5th supposedly) It'll take a while to reorder everything.

You really oughta have numbers instead of a color-coding system.
Every time I look at a match-up on the chart, I have to look at the color key.
Colors just don't make any sense. Use numbers so it can be understood more clearly.
Grab Releases **** Meta Knight.

Bowser's KO Power ***** Meta Knight.

Meta Knight is just ****.
If that explains why it's yellow, then I suppose Ike and DK and Ganon and DDD and all the other heavy-hitters are even with Meta Knight.

You didn't see the grab release part.

Grab release ftilt,fortress,dash attack (air release I believe), etc.

Grab releases **** MK due to Bowser's KO Power....

Wow.... how can Ganon be so bad against Sheik? I mean seriously 05:95 ???? that's insane.

I'm also one for wanting numbers instead of (or in addition to) color coding. Color coding kinda limits what you know about it. Like the ganon v sheik thing, it's still the same color as a 80:20 matchup

@Mister_E : From what i know, DK does good against MK. And as a Ganon main, i can say that MK is not our worst match-up, and that we have a chance in the match-up. It's still hard, but not unwinnable at all (and we can kill him at 86% fairly easily).

But Bowser has grab release, more range, more mobility than Ganon... Well he's overall better vs MK anyways.

I won't talk about DDD and Ike, since i don't know a lot about thei match-ups.

But you're (ironically) partially right, heavies can exploit farly well the only weakness MK has : His weight.

[EDIT : I'm for color + number]

Christ, I just played a match against my friend who plays MK and I used Bowser.. I've got to say that Bowser is insanely good against him.

I even did a grab air release to Bowsercide. It looked awesome.

Thought you'd like some new info for your new chart.

King Dedede vs. Peach is 50:50. Agreed on by both boards.
King Dedede vs. Fox is 50:50. Agreed on by both boards.
King Dedede vs. Kirby is 40:60 (Kirby's favor). Agreed on by both boards.
King Dedede vs. Pikachu is 35:65 (Pikachu's favor). Agreed on by both boards.
King Dedede vs. Diddy Kong is 40:60 (Diddy Kong's favor). Agreed on by both boards.
I have no idea how to read Ankoku's chart in this thread, but the Dedede boards have agreed that King Dedede vs. Zelda/Shiek is 40:60 (Z/S's favor).
ROB boards and Lucario boards need to hurry up and discuss Dedede lol.
Also, the Pit boards are in disagreement with the Dedede boards about the matchup but I personally am reluctant to create a new discussion of it since the last one devolved into a flame war.

G&W vs. Snake is 40:60 (Snake's favor)
G&W vs. Kirby is 60:40 (G&W's favor)
G&W vs. Ike is 60:40 (G&W's favor)

Did this for own purposes, figured may as well post it.

Left side is Character Boards, top is discussed characters. So if you go down to Lucas, then right to Diddy, you get what the Lucas boards rated the Lucas vs. Diddy match. But down to Diddy and right to Lucas gives you the Diddy vs. Lucas match as determined by Diddy boards. The number on the left is always the character on the left, number on the right is top character. Blank spaces means that board didn't have a ranking for that character. Some places didn't use good ol' ratios so I just used letters (a advantage, d disadvantage, capital for more emphasis). Alphabetical order (Using full names, not displayed), except PT's Pokemon are next to him, and Shiek is next to Zelda.

May I suggest putting another list of "you" characters on the right side since we already have the other 3 sides filled? Makes it a little easier to read.

I pretty sure you read the Snake matchups wrong. In their chart, the bottom number is what they put down. The top number is the opponent's matchup chart.

For consistency's sake, I can't put down the DK or Wolf v Falco matchup until they put their number down as well.

I looked at both the Falco and Fox matchup threads. Neither have 55-45 listed.

Thanks anyways. :ohwell:

This is incredible. How long have you been keeping up with it? And are you using the matchup threads I've got listed in the OP?

I made it yesterday, so it's pretty up to date.

For threads, I just searched "Match" in each of the character boards and used the thread that is usually sticked or near the top. For the most part those are what you have linked (Ike and Link had crappy threads when I searched, so I used what you had linked).

After a quick check, I used all the threads you posted except for these characters.

WTP, I'm going to update the chart in Sonic boards to include numbers to make it easier for you. Our 'neutral' range is anywhere between 55:45 and 45:55, so I'll update the current chart on post #3 of our chart to make it a little more specific.

May update this post later with any new changes agreed on in both boards.

Edit : Whilst not having the OP updated, in this link most Diddy's are calling it anywhere between 50:50 and 55:45, which either way is even.

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=181638&page=45

We have the same on our chart.

There have been several matchup discussions on the Jigglypuff boards. I believe we are in agreement with Zelda on the matchup being ~65 : 35 Zelda's advantage.

Don't use that Mario thread. Hero pulled most of those numbers out of his behind. Well, he did use the matchup discussions as a reference, but they're only agreed upon by him. Keep to Boss's thred.

These are agreed with on the respective boards

Sonic v Olimar has been agreed neutral on both boards (45:55 Olimar's favour on ours, 50:50 on theirs)

I only scrolled through Luigi's matchups...

Is he actually THAT GOOD against Diddy, a 70/30 Luigi's favor?

There is no way in hell Luigi has a matchup 80/20 Jiggs favor. He should have an advantage. save this matchup ratio for DDD.

Is Luigi's disadvantage against Falco really a 70/30 Falco's favor? (I heard it wasn't, but I could be wrong).


Still, this chart is useful, just need some sprucing up.

Wait, is Falco so overpowered that he wins a matchup he's not even playing in: Falcon vs Luigi? ;)
