So how many complaints in tournaments do you guys get as Olimar mains that fighting you is some degree of difficult?

The matchup topic isn't very well organized (Or maybe i'm not good at reading what you've all wrote. T-T) so I couldn't really see who Olimar is particularly strong or falters against, i'd like that information, too.

Sup i'm from the Lucario boards. =o

Why do you want to know? You're not thinking about counterpicking a particular Olimar main that's going to TILT on the 17th are you? :bee:

No., i'm confident enough against Olimar players with my Lucario. Truth be told, i'm considering Olimar as a second. =o! Mainly for Dededes I can't seem to do anything to with Luca, but he (oli) might see other uses from time to time. Was trying to see if I was making an informed decision. X3 The only thing that's preventing me from doing it right now is the limited options his recovery brings. I'm from Lucario, so, naturally i'm spoiled in the recovery options department. X3

NOOOO

It's ALREADY HAPPENING

>.<
Quickly delete the entire Olimar character section.

And as for you Mr. Lucario man. I suggest you go back the way you came.

Hah seriously though Olimar works wonders against D3. He's a good counter pick for him. Just grab throw and smash =) Oh, and rain pikmin down upon his penguin body.

he's a good pick vs a dumb ddd
there's a few that know the math up really well and can give you trouble

best is to camp and yellows are helpful because
1. they trap with uair and have great range
2. they have an arched flight pattern which is good because most ddd's will stay in the air vs oli

If you're going to use Olimar as a counterpick against DDD, you have to study the matchup. It's not one of those instant wins. If you want one of those kinda matchups to deal with DDD, then use IC and practice the bthrow->footstool->iceblock chaingrab. It takes less than 10 minutes to learn. An easy 0-death on a character that's easy to pressure with alternating blizzards= easy win.

Also, his recovery takes getting used to. You have to be much more careful deciding when to use your second jump and aerials, and when to whistle over airdodging and vice versa.

But I don't like Ice Climbers... T-T and Olimar is fun. =o

But I guess you are right... I sort of am looking for an instant win that I can rely heavily on if my Lucario can't do the job like i'm training it to. Urgh. I'll look at Iceys, but if they don't appeal to me, then i'm coming back! >O *fistshake*

Everyone knows how to play metaknight. Whether you know it or not, he is everybody's best character.

Well, i haven\'t gone to any IRL tournies, but i play a lot of online, and a lot of people seem to be aggrivated with my Olimar. They usually just say he takes no skill to play or that all i do is throw,run and grab.
So people will be annoyed with your Oli, which is mindgames as well.

Ew, Metaknight. D= Dude when I first saw the trailer I was like "Yeah, i'm gonna play Metaknight cause he's cool." Then when it came out I forgot all about him and played Pit and Lucas and gravitated towards Lucario. >,>

Me too, cause MK looked bad ***, but when the game came out i ditched Ganon(melee, i sucked at melee though.) I then tried Olimar and fell in love by his pikmin.

Another thing is that i never picked up MK because of the massive amount of people who used him.

Do I know you? :ohwell:
You probably don't know me unless you hang out on the G&W or Pika boards a lot. I do know who you are though O.o

I'm planning to be at TILT too. I hope we get to brawl sometime.

When Olimar was announced I didn\'t really think of maining him, when Brawl came out i hated how Ganon ran(like a school girl). So i played with someone else and on that day i choose Olimar and he became my main.

....He ***** you with plants.

....Imagine Ganondorf with a sailor skirt and running with his arms outstretched and fingers all splayed out.

It was Aztec's fault! Not mine! Then he went on to talk about how Olimar ***** you with plants which is clearly a reference to tentacles. D=
