I remember picking up Peach right away when I first got Melee because I always played as her in Kart, Party, etc. I also remember a lot of people - including the Nintendo Power Player’s Guide I think - calling her a good character for beginners because of her float recovery. Upon discovering competitive I stuck with her because her wavedash was the shortest and so I felt it was inconsequential. Again, I appreciated not having to get super-“techy”, though I remember reading some GameFAQs guides about “float cancelling” and wasn’t really sure what it was or how to use it.
I picked her up again in Smash 4 as a secondary and loved the fact that she basically refused to be KO’ed, again with her great recovery/floating technique. Eventually dropped her for multiple reasons, one of which was people saying she was a major technical character. This surprised me based on everything I thought I knew.
So now Ultimate comes and both Peach and Daisy look intriguing to me, maybe not as mains but definitely up there. I hear a lot of people saying similar stuff to Smash 4 though that they are very hard to pick up. Again, I don’t necessarily see it right now but I admittedly have a long way to go when it comes to advanced play.
What have you guys heard about the princess’ difficulty curve in this game and what would be some things for me to focus on moving forward?
