I'm not much of a gamer these days; I just plain got old. Back in high school, sure, every weekend it was time for Smash with the guys...but now I'm 1000 miles away from them, with a full-time job, a girlfriend that lives with me, and I just don't have as much time to devote to the game as my friends.
When we played Melee I was certainly on-par with my friends; I wasn't the best in the group, but I wasn't the worst and in any 1v1 situation, I had a chance of winning.
I purchased a wii just to play this game with them; but by the time I even got one; they'd all beat the SSE, unlocked all the characters and had many hours under their belt - when we played, I was certainly the worst.
Sure, I could play for hours and hours to become good, but I don't have that time anymore (or I'm not willing to spend it playing the wii) but I do enjoy playing with my old friends. What I want to do is, essentially, become a dirty/cheap/ANNOYING player. I want to use tactics that will annoy others.
So, I'm asking here for the 'cheapest' character, moves, and any tips anyone has for me. We play 4 man FFA - and I find that characters with ranged weapons can be very annoying. Mario/Fox/Falco/Pit seem to be the best for spamming ranged attacks - but I haven't played all of the characters.
I've also been looking into techniques to get a 'cheap' kill. I'm only able to do this with Ness, but I haven't experimented with everyone - a downward smash will spend an opponent straight down (I've been killing CPU players at < 40% using this) and then PK-Thunder or whatever it is to get myself back on. Are there other characters better suited for this (Ideally, I'd like a character with an annoying ranged attack + the ability to get very cheap, low percentage kills).
Any other tips for me? Any annoying or cheap tactics that you use?
