Snake is definately Meta Knight's hardest matchup. His explosives stop MK from moving around so much - something he needs to do in order to be devastating.

Its either Snake or Falco, imo. Snake's tilts are just scary for MK T_T

This is almost impossible to pull off. You can't say that this technique alone makes Mk better than Snake. Snake is probably Mks worst matchup. Dk and zelda have given me problems as well.

Like people are saying, Falco and Snake. The only two higher then MK in the Tier List. ^_^ Well, Falco probably won't be in the early Tier Lists, but he will be eventually... >_>

I'm almost biased to being snake because they're so overused now it's really starting to get annoying...i might try falco for my third, thanks for the help meta community

I was actually going to ask this very same thing, except I was going to title it, "WHO IS THIS GOD **** GAME DOES WELL AGAINST THIS ****ING CHARACTER"

I suppose brawlerbrad put it a little more eloquently and delicate than I would have.

Would someone please be kind enough to give me the character they think has the largest advantages against Metaknight and why?

So far I'm hearing Falco, DK, and Snake. I'm already picking up Falco and if he does well against MK than bonus for me, but I'm also thinking about picking up with DK and Snake. I would love some solid fact or opinion. Help me out guys.

In no order:

Snake
Donkey Kong
Zelda
Falco
DeeDeeDee
Lucario
ROB
Marth

Yeah, not all of these are MK's most difficult matchups, but they certainly can pose problems with MK in the right hands.

DK, Falco, Marth, Zelda, and other MKs have given me difficulty before. Mainly DK and Zelda. I'm surprised so many people list Falco and not Zelda. Her range and sweetspotted aerials can be devastating.

Oh yeah, and Toon, if played well, is a tough one.

I think Diddys a good match His Bananas can stop tornadoe by throwing or if u slip. Its hard to approach diddy on the groundd (sumtimes even the air) because his bananas. Diddy can do his little Side B and his Up B to save him so sumtimes it can get hard to follow him in the air. MK probaly still has the advantage here but A good Diddy could be a problem

What are you talking about? lol
well you see you stated:

You're stupid if you think Falco is easy for MK. Play a good Falco and you'll change your mind.
And so I added more into that by saying that any character is difficult played by the right hands.... then I just randomely stated a few examples of players who can make characters difficult...

Yeah, but...that isn't what the question was here. >_> We know that a great player playing a character will give you problems. ;[ The characters that give MK difficulty when the players are near equal skill wouldn't include most of the cast.

That's for me to know
No matter what, Toon Link isn't difficult on Meta Knight. Even though he has the most annoying projectiles in the world, he is very easy to gimp from where I see it.

So, why does Falco have the adv. over MK? Not disagreeing, I just want to hear specifics so I can see if I might work with it.

Lesee, I know a grab = 60%, lasers hurt and go through tornado. Usmash is probably best kill move, as the others seem kinda tough to land against MK. Anything else about the matchup?

I really don't understant how snake is competition for Metaknight.
Snake is so much slower than MK, and MK won't let snake any time to think and perform good combos...

i would agree with dojo, a better MK.
also Marth or Link
