I was fighting A friend of mine today, and I relized (After getting destroyed by his DK when using ganon) that DK isnt a good match for Ganon... I beat him when using Luigi, Samus, Fox, and Link... But Ganon was the only Time I couldn't Succeed in defeating him..

Any reason for this? Quicker? Better Areials? What?
I do relize that every match is a hard match for Ganon.. but Why DK?

DK's alot more versitile than Ganon. He has way more options.

DK is one of the easier wielded heavyweights IMO. Just remember that he's a big target and can be knocked around like other heavies.

Oh, and never get hit by his front-b. EVER.

its not that DK is that hard to fight with ganon, EVERYONE is hard to fight with ganon.... just get really good i guess is the only crappy advice i can give.


DK is big, to easy to spike...

Really? I actually enjoy fighting DKs with Ganon. So easy to combo, spike, and just tossing them all over the place. Big juicy targets ftw! :D

Large targets are always good for Ganon.
They're easier to play against than smaller characters, for me.

I guess you really have to be able to play against DK's I never play them, so that might factor in why I lose.... Oh well..
I hear what you mean. My friend mains only DK (and he's skilled with him) so I'm kind of used to all of what a DK player and DK are capable. I don't know any G&W players so it's always a tough match agaisnt a G&W with any of my characters when I come across one.

I screw around with Ganon every so often even tho I only can play with Mario,if you ask me,the only thing that DKs got that really destorys Ganon's attacking methods(Thunder Stomping) is DKs tilts,partucularlly up tilt with his back turned.DK himself has to be careful about smashing because he cannot angle his smash attempts.

Ganon has trouble with DK mainly for one reason. Range. DK's Ftilt and Bair are his main pokes and have huge range. Yes, Ganon can rack damage well when he gets close enough to DK, but that's the problem. DK can wait at range and use Ftilt/Bair all day and it makes it an uphill fight for Ganon. Dair can't get in, murder choke gets stuffed, wizard's foot gets tilt-canceled, Ganon doesn't really have a decent approach for getting past DK's range.

First of all... DK can't angle his smashes? You might wanna go double check your facts. Also-- since when was angling your smashes so important at all? There are a few hiiiighly situation advantages to angled smashes but that's it.
