Ken for Marth.
Isai for Falcon?
King for Jiggs?

EDIT:
Germ for Link?
Wes for Samus?
Bob$ for Doc?

I think it's pretty much the old school players.

Some people would say Bombsoldier was the beginning of Falco- and that's all I know.
I think Forward should be mentioned too. To me it seems he was as much an influence to the beginning of Falco play even if he came after as Bombsoldier... but that could just be my own bias towards Forward.

I think what you're trying to ask is who is the most influential player of all time for each character? If so, I'd say:

Fox: Chillin
Falco: Forward
Sheik: Amsah
Marth: M2K
Jiggs: King
Peach: Armada
Falcon: Darkrain
ICs: Chu Dat
Doc: Bob$
Pika: Axe
Ganon: Eddy / Linguini / Kage (tough one..)
Samus: HugS
Mario: Eggz
Luigi: Ka-Master
Link: The GERM
DK: Bum
Mewtwo: Taj
Zelda: Cosmo
Roy: Neo
Ness: Mofo

probably.

I think people would say Wife for Peach. But it might be Cort. Not up on my Peach history like I should be.

I thought it was more of "who was the first influential player" or who built the competitive scene for that character

something like that

Personally, if we're going with first influential players, I'd go with Captain Jack for DK, Brown Mario for Mario, Mike G for Peach, Wes for Samus, and Dire for GW.

First influencial? Definitely not me, maybe in recent times sure.. but for Ganon I'd put Eddy/Tipman. Joe Bushman had his time too.

For Falcon, **** that Darkrain lol.

For real. This guy came down to Florida from NJ to specifically me and my cousin, since they had both met at college; his Ness is so consistent, not to mention his intuitiveness to activate the Yo-yo glitch mid-match (did it to me three times).

He has some secrets he hinted me towards during the first day we played. I had no clue what they were until after he had already flown back home, but he made me promise I wouldn't tell. x]

Best Ness main, hands-down.
