lol, I just was like "let me check my User CP once more before I go to sleep" and exactly then, the Diddy update was there. GG Gimpy.

Oh snapz! Air Grab spike ftw. I will try out Diddy just because of this report. I haven't seen very many diddy impressions so this is some very nice stuff.

Give us characters 1 by 1? That sounds Sakuraish. But, very detailed and lots of work. Very very awesome analysis overall of E for All Brawl demo.
Diddy Kong's over B sounds really good.

but in retrospect, his up+b sounds really easy to edgeguard against - unless you can't trade hits with it ala fox's up+b

What? Have you even played Melee?
Gimpy can you list Diddy's special moves before your takes on the character?

I'm sure Gimpyfish has a million other things to do in his spare time other than give us these indepth character analases. Be grateful, it takes a while to do crap like this.
And I like that Diddy has a "Chimp lunging at your face and man-handling you" special move. I was a little skeptical at first when Sakurai described Diddy as being wily and out of control, but he actually looks fluid and useful. I really can't wait to play this game.
I think he was talking about Brawl. I heard Bowser's nB is DOMINANT now.

Gimpyfish said Bowser was mid-tierish now.
X-x-Dyce-x-X
Smash Master
Ok?... but I still heard that his nB was dominant.
Eltrotraw
Smash Journeyman
whoops, meant to say if you COULD trade hits with it.
I think you know what I mean though, but we'll have to do hella experimentation to find out what attacks(if any) affect Diddy while recovering
In fact, he was talking about Super Paper Mario.
I hope Diddy won't be too powerful. Just because it wouldn't feel right. But that's just me, so, uh... pay this no mind.

diddy was top tier in dkc1
but uh, after playing him a bit on the demo myself, I found that Diddy's attacks flowed together pretty well. Kinda like a wierd mix of Space Animals style.

Air grabs, who would have thought that the game would have that?
I definatly think Diddy kong will be used in smash tournements.

Umm.... Melee had air grabs, so it was pretty likely.... yeah....

Diddy seems to feel like a character that could be unstoppable with a pro. He has really decent recovery, some generally ok specials, and seems to be very combo oriented. Speedy characters in general are always a plus, eh?
I really like the idea of this anti-edgeguarding business. Could bring a whole new set of strategies into play once you send someone flying.

i wouldn't say there's anti edge guarding, well, completely anyway. You can still attack your opponent off the stage to kill them, and you can still edge hog using the Hugging technique..

According to gimpyfish, it's horrible.

Gimpy, write about Link next!!
SirPenguin

I wouldn't say it's horrible, only bad if you're hit. The fact you can control the angle of ascent means quite a bit.
Also, I don't fully understand what Gimpy is saying. If you hit him during his up-B, he can't up-B again until he hits the ground, right? Aren't all characters like that? No one can up-B twice in the midair.

Ehh, I dunno so much about Diddy Kong. I mean it'll be cool to be a little monkey running around shooting peanuts out of pop-guns, but I don't think I will play as him personally. I'm looking forward to the updates of the other characters. I think I'll play as Pit.

How much life do diddy's peanuts heal if he eats them?
I would think so.

Homeless people slowing down brawl updates? Bah! Burn them I say! Burn them all!
I'm kidding of course, nice to see you doing the world some good AND helping out all of us rabid fans. You're a true hero Gimpy.

Man it sucks for diddy to not be able to up B again after gettinh hit in mid air! they need to fix this ASAP
Half of a fight in decided on edguards!!! so if you get hit just once ull go down like a rock.
I see diddy losing a lot just for this

Tell me about it (rather, gimme Brawl)
Looked like top tier from day one
Barely, more when you charge it though
I think a normal meal (3-5% ish)
Are you doing this food thing for the people evacuated from the fires or just general homeless? Either way, do what you can for them, I would if I could from here.
uhhhh.... >_>
most people likely are looking forward to these updates moreso than the dojo's updates lol
and i'm not goin to type something up, see a decent dojo update, and then go "oh, i guess i just wont post it"
Inferno_blaze
Smash Lord
It's true actually, I've gotten to the point where I'm more excited for these updates than the dojo, mainly because I know the dojo will be full of bloody fillers for the next 3 months whereas Gimpy's updates are long, in depth and worth reading.

Unless of course it's a complete character disection with %s, knockbacks, distances and ranges etc...of say...Diddy 
Could you possibly get a Diddy analysis from one of the people that played him often. Possibly the details (like his Side B can be the "face ****" or a kick if you pressed the attack button in mid flight).
Just being hopefull (or helpfull) donno

How about you don't check this thread unless you are dissatisfied with the Dojo's update. That way, your need for daily equally valued information doesn't hold back information for the rest of us.
i said i wasn't done with the diddy update, its just a little details on how he plays for now haha
