Smash Hero
How do you feel about this?
Why?:
-No matchups worse than arguably 40-60.
-No impossible matchups on any stage.
-Recovery that is difficult to gimp unless a character has specific strats to force his rocket barrels to the bottom of the screen.
-Superb combo ability.
-Banana control will never be an issue if you know how to deal with strategies of stealing them.
-Good aerial priority (quick and powerful.)
-Very good grab range.
-3 spikes.
-A footstool combo on more than 10 characters that can counter chars trying to gimp him if they are reckless.
-Does well against all the top tiers except falco (but has a large amount of potential against him.)
-Counters game and watch.
-Is very good against metaknight (instant competitive advantage.)
-Good shield options.
-Good spotdodge that is directly below falco's or king dedede's.
-So much depth that he has an answer to almost every strategy against him.
-His worst matchups (luigi, olimar, peach, and falco) are taken out by metaknights quite oftenly.
-Good camping ability and can gimp some recoveries like the space animals with simply a peanut or banana drop.
-Dash attack, need say more?
But he does have bad qualities:
-Killing is only decent, good dededes will commonly live to 160 with great DI bc of this...
-Like I said, some characters have specific tools to gimp diddy like sonic's spring projectile on diddy's barrels if he is recovering from below.
-Momentum is necessary to win.
-Mistakes hurt, HARD.
-His fsmash can be DI'd with good reaction time making it difficult to kill some people even more.
-Can't do anything about marth's spacing...
-If diddy is offstage, the opponent can get free hits from him having to side b back on for example d3's bair constantly hitting him back.
-Its hard for diddy to choose stages to ban most of the time.
It's been proven that diddy can place incredibly well by many of the diddys around the country. He IS a very good character. However, not many people will use him because of how much effort it takes with him to do well and it takes large amounts of experience and time to become viable with him in offline tournaments.
