Dealing With Campy Characters/Players

[Jayse14]

Hey all, I'm wondering how you go about approaching and dealing with campy characters/players? I find myself having a really hard time combating these types of play styles and would love some tips. I often find that they quickly gain control of the stage and then read all of my attempts at approaching. Some characters I can think of in particular are Duck Hunt, Rob, and maybe Lucas. Thanks

Are you power shielding ?
If so what do they do when you keep power shielding? Do they try to throw of your timing or spacing ? How are they setting up their camp game?

There are quite a number of questions you have to ask yourself to figure out how best to proceed.

Starting with one of the basic counters is the walking PS which let's you close...errr inch in on them little by little until they decide to stop and either grab you or run away again.

Some characters with projectile spam don't need to be shielded if you can throw out the right hit boxes at the right times to negate and override them.

Like arrows can be destroyed with zair or tilts, but bombs can not.

Another thing is getting a feel for the projectiles that are hindering you by checking out the character and messing around with them.
