O.K. usually my teammate for doubles uses Lucas and I use D3, but he's starting to use Marth and i was wondering who you guys thought was a good teammate to Marth, right now I'm using Lucas when he uses Marth, but it's not working out well for some reason

Any thoughts???

Isn't Dedede a good teammate? You can chaingrab foes and stuff. Marth is all about spacing, and Dedede can use him grabs as a spacing tool, and set up for Marth's smashes to tip.

Plus his Waddle Dees and friends serve as good meatshields to stop projectile spam so Marth can move in.

Oh...and can D3 and Marth infinite a foe like a Dedede pair can? <_<

Because that'll be epic sauce.

Marth and Lucas is a good team.... not to toot my own horn but cruss and I haven't lost a serious set playing Marth and Lucas, and we've played a bunch of good tournament winning players.

Marth is primarily a damage dealer in this situation. There's some pretty easy kill set ups because Lucas' smashes last so long and most of Marth's attacks trajectory send the opponents right into them.

I actually have found Meta makes a good teammate because the Tornado can hold foes in place for Marth to slam or other things like that. Now there may be better combos, but I haven't had a chance to try them.

Try G&W. Marth and G&W as a team can have ridiculous stage control. When dancing blade and the turtle come together its brutal.

Snake has much better stage control, and I would say that he and Marth are the best tagteam.

I would say that you want someone with safe kill moves. Snake comes to mind, but I'm sure that there are other options.

marth and zelda are superb
marth and ike are pretty nice except they will have no projectiles
marth and d3 are very nice one ko one dmg racker
marth gw = madness in brawl
2x marths = DESTRUCTION
