Posts like this annoy me.
What you aren't taking into consideration is the mind-game factor of the game. You are stating this simply as 'character vs character' which is not the case at all.
I see what you're saying, but I take into consideration the 2 best players of each character, or the closest you can get. You have to go off something, so I take what I consider the best Marth player, you, and the best/second best MK, Forte, and I look at the results. Sooner or later people will have to base their conclusions off something. If the best Marth vs the best/2nd best MK play and Marth wins...The matchup is even or MK at a slight advantage like I said.
Forte is an excellent Metaknight and just so happens to not do anything gay or abusive yet maintain effective playing.
I know, I played him in pools. He's a great player.
He 2 stocked me the first game, tooled me pretty easily. After that game I had a better idea of his style and was able to win the next two matches. I won because I outsmarted Forte
(something that may or may not happen everytime), not because Marth has any sort of advantage in the match-up.
Alright, good point good point.
If the match were as simple as you've stated it to be, another Marth on the east coast would've done it by now instead of me (Both Azen/meep are good Marth's and lost to Forte).
Azen's Marth/Meep are irrelevant to what I am taking into consideration, since your Marth is better than both of theirs. And I never said the matchup was simple...No, no no. People before said that the matchup was **** in MK's favor...Specifically a guy named Everlasting Yayuhzz. After your match with Forte, I wanted to point out to people that it's not ****.
I've put in a lot of hard work and studying for Marth, EL is no more correct than anyone else. Its been generally agreed upon for a while that the match is 60:40 and even when people use the word "****" its only in reference to MK's annoying natural advantages against Marth. Sheik "*****" Marth in melee but it was still 60:40
Yeah, **** really is overused, sorry if I overused it. At any rate, EL really is more correct than a lot of people. It just annoys me when people come in with no facts whatsoever and say **** when EL points out stats, facts and actual data he's acquired from his own analyses. Am I wrong to think that?
