Do you have any specific reasons as to why? :0As a puff with a dark pit secondary, I would urge you to try to pick up puff
They play similarly, but puff's aerials are stronger, but she lacks the specials of dark pit. Puff is very combo proof this game with her light weight, so it's nice against characters like sheik.
Not bad I may try her out! Thanks for the input!
- Fantastic read-punish fighter. Defensive with slow smashes, but great spacing tools and immense KO power. Difficult to get to grips with, you'll probably want to give her some time to truly get good with her. Satisfying to use and can tackle even the toughest of foes with her complex, varied playstyle. - No ranged moves, but excels at mid-close range. Good at spacing and playing footsies, can aggro campers with her blade's length. Lack of tipper makes her more consistent than Marth. Not necessarily a poor man's Marth, as some may consider her, but rather a different kind of playstyle that's good against varied opponents and a more balanced playstyle of offense and defense. - Projectile fighter with good zoning and long-range tools. Can strike from afar with various forms of Thunder, which can link into different combos and setups. Arcfire is good for stage control and nullifying projectiles. Incredibly slow and cumbersome, but her sword packs a wallop and is good for KO power and aerial defense. - Defensive zoner with a varied toolset. Can keep opponent at bay with lasers and gyros, has some incredibly powerful smashes with good KO power. Slow and floaty, plus a big target, best used tactfully and smartly. Can pressure opponents like crazy, though, and can rack up damage and bait for an easy kill. - Like R.O.B., a large target with good zoning options and smashes. A bit more aggressive and fierce, he can cover ground easily with his side-b and his aerials are pretty powerful. Can pressure with neutral-b and down-b, up-b is also good for setups. Requires commitment and dedication to play, but has some good skills and can play a good stage of racking up damage and baiting for an easy kill. or , possibly even a heavy tank like or if that's what you're into. At the end of the day, it's your call, so play around and see who works best for you and how you can do well with them. If you want any more advice or suggestions, you know where to find me. Good luck with your search!
Thanks! Actually I've tried Robin and ROB, and I've found both to be at least somewhat agreeable. I think I will start with them, then maybe move onto Palutena. I've dabbled in her a bit and couldn't make it work back then, but I'd love to be able to pull it off. Thanks for all the recommendations!
Looks like I have quite a few characters to try out! Quick question - how would you recommend I go about this? I.e., say I want to try Robin, ROB, Palutena, Link, and Wario to see what's the best secondary for me. Should I just go into training mode for each one, and then to FG/AL?
Captain Falcon fits that description best, I'd say. Never played Injustice Gods Among Us, but if the character plays like his name sounds then it should fit haha. Cap is one of the fastest characters in the game, and if you can hit a knee you will be smiling the entire rest of the day.
//, etc. That way, you can switch up your playstyle in a match against your opponent, just when they got adjusted to your defensive style, you can now change it to an all out aggressive playstyle. The thing about having a secondary is your going to wind up focusing on two characters, which can be a good and bad thing at the same time. By focusing on one character, you'll be so good with your primary that will be able to learn the ins and outs of your character. If you were to focus on two characters at the same time, you won't learn everything about your characters, and you'll start to neglect on some of the moves that your character can do, in comparison to learning everything about one character. It's kind of silly to main two characters that pretty much do the same thing, in terms of playstyle.
yah when ppl play dark pit, pit is kind of an obvious co-main since they play very similarly. Like i play both of them depending on the character matchup. But there are some characters they suck against so its good to have options available with other characters. :] Ive settled on other mains now along with Dark Pit/Pit but yah!i honestly think Pit is a very good co-main. works very well for me
who do they suck against? :O
Like which matchups?
