Hmmm, well you could just try a highish-tiered character and maybe try and discover something new with them. Olimar is pretty promising as long as you can avoid being gimped on your recovery... although that's kinda hard i guess
. Mess around with b-sticking and some random button setups and possible combos
, i'm sure you already do that when you're testing people though. I've just kind of always used Marth since melee and all of my online nicknames have to do with Marth so i forced myself to get good with him and i don't really play like a lot of other marths according to Irsic, i always played with my friends and at backwater LAN parties where the other people weren't all that good so i got some nice goodies for my computer hehehe. I know what you mean though, i'm having trouble finding a second character, i kind of like Zero Suit but i'm having trouble getting things to flow like they do when i play Marth.
I suppose i was lucky that the character i ended up getting used to the most was pretty high up, i'm not against tiers but i think anybody can be faked out by mindgames if you know what you're doing regardless of who you pick. Maybe i should just take a psycology class or two
