For those who don't know what sandbagging is, it's the act of intentionally playing bad against another player.
Examples of sandbagging can go in the forms of:
-Intentionally not playing at your best with your character.
-Intentionally not playing at your skill level, whether it is with your character or not.
-Choosing a low tiered character, either to have the other person stand a chance or as a means of disrespect.
For more info, here is a link to it on SmashWiki:

It's admittedly hard to tell who is and isn't sandbagging, but you notice it when you face against some opponents over time.
I have seen two examples of this myself:
-I fought a guy whose main was Robin, but he didn't bring him out until our third game. The games prior to that had him play pretty poorly.
-I fought someone yesterday and they were playing pretty poorly with Little Mac and Roy. I switch to Ryu and they chose my main, Luigi, as a means of revenge or something. I was winning easily until the match came very, very close and I won. I switched to Yoshi, he chose Ryu, and he beat me (and was actually pretty good with Ryu). I then beat his real main, Captain Falcon, twice.
So, has anyone sandbagged you on For Glory?
