Here are some questions we've already answered:
[collapse=How is Game and Watch in teams?]
[/collapse]On a professional level G&W wouldn't do well on teams, he gets knocked around if he's by himself. If you do play him on team you wanna stick with your team mate at all times..
[collapse=Why is Game and Watch low tier?]
Capps: He also has a bad approach, cannot L-cancel all of hit aerials, has bad OOS options, and has some almost unwinnable matchups.he has a terrible shield
lightweight
gets comboed easily
[/collapse]
[collapse=Is Judge effected by the timer?]
Capps: No, this is just an old rumor. You can see the mechanics for Judge in: Flatten The Opposition: A Game and Watch Guide.
[/collapse]
[collapse=At what % with a crouch cancelled Dtilt make the opponent trip?]
[/collapse]Double post for awesomeness
Following %'s are when the opponent is crouch canceling, after the dtilt connects
Tested in NTSC v1.0

[collapse=Why can't Game and Watch L-cancel some of his aerials? ]
Capps: For some reason the game treats them as Specials, this makes it so they can't be L-canceled.
[/collapse]
[collapse=I play Game and Watch in Brawl, any tips for transitioning to Melee?]
[/collapse]
- Do not spam bair like you would in Brawl.
- Do not spam nair like you would in Brawl.
- Do not shield as often as you would in Brawl.
- Do not attempt to recover as you would in Brawl. That recovery simply does not exist.
- Do not attempt to "bucket break" as you would in Brawl. Bucket breaking still exists, but it will only get you killed.
