I've been hearing that most Peach mains can't really play well with other characters. However, I can't just play Peach all the time, what are some good second mains for Peach players? What second mains do some of you guys use?

lol @ above post

Anyway, play someone good in tournament. It's awkward to pick up Peach first and then play other characters. I first started out basically playing everyone, and then had a knack for Peach.

Now I occasionally play Marth/Fox in other tournament matchups I'm not comfortable using Peach in.

i think that Sheik and Fox is a good second main because you could always have sheik as a backup if your having trouble with a Marth player or you could and the fox could be if your having trouble with alot of other players like ylink, falco or CF.
Sheik and Fox are my secondaries but im trying to get them to the same level as my peach.

I'll take a potato chip....and eat it!!!
Um, my seconds are like....weird. I've got too many of them, but my best second, ironically is a low tier. Y. Link. Mainly because I still get to spam projectiles, lol. My Y. Link is probably better than My Doc and IC's. The sad thing is I've only been playing Y. Link for maybe a month. *cough* anyway...just try out different characters. Whatever one speaks to you go for it. Just don't make the same mistake I do with shiek and automatically go for the down B. (LOL, funny moments).

If you want to cover matchups, Marth, Fox, and Sheik are good for secondaries. But otherwise, just figure out which characters work best for you.

Well I decided to just play around with C. Falcon one day, and this C. Falcon main that lives next door to me started giving me some tips, I had SOOO much fun playing as him, and he said I was so good with him for how long I had started playing with him, that I'm actually considering making C. Falcon my 1st main instead of my 2nd!

I'm a Peach/Marth main, and Marth is actually pretty good as a second. He takes care of spacies problems and some other match ups. Plus, a good benefit is on the personal level you might feel more comfortable with one or the other regardless of the match up. Example, I seem to do better with Peach vs Jiggs even though Marth is a much better match up. The only problem is you might have some trouble against Shieks.

I am a peach main and I like to pretty much play anbody else but that might be because of the fact that I played alot of other characters befor i started peach.

i am going to say IC or C.Falcon (moonwalking is just to much fun to do not to play as him:) ).
basicly its just based on your playing style of who you 2ndary will be most will go gannon due to his forward air has close to same start up time, and zelda for she floats and can do 2 air attacks before landing.
dont 2ndary IC requires differnt playing style lol.

Try Sheik.

She play very differently from Peach, but is going to be useful in some matchups.


If you play doubles, Sheik/Peach teams work really well. Between Peach's great recovery and ability to live forever and Sheik's speed/manuverability, you can do some nasty stuff.

Yeah, I posted a topic about this already.
Mods can delete it.
Sorry Broseph.
Even So, I've been second maining Jiggs and Yoshi, and they're working quite well.
