Okay first off, please read this:

Second of all, the reason I am posting this here is because I don't have set-out summaries of Marth's performance in the elements of Brawl. So, I was wondering if you guys could do it, considering how you guys are the authorities on your own character.

Use this thread to discuss it, and then please post your results in the "Element of Brawl" thread linked above, using this format:

ZONING

• On the ground
• In the air
• Off-stage

SPACING

• Extreme long distance
• Long distance
• Medium distance
• Short distance

KILLING

• Killing power
• Gimping potential

Thanks a bunch.

I'm currently writing a massive guide that incorporates a lot of the info you're looking for.

Zoning.
Ground - Ftilts for short hops, Dtilt for forcing short hops
Air - Fairs, retreating fairs.
Off-stage - Nairs, fairs, shielding -> dolphn slash, dtilts

Spacing
Extreme - Shield breaker or death stare (lulz)
Long distance - death stare
Medium distance - Ground zoning
Short distance - Jab, Dancing Blade, Dolphin Slash

Killing
Power - Fsmash tippered is good. Downsmash tipper same strength as Snake's utilt. Utilt kills.
Gimping - Fair, nair, Dair, dolphin slash.

I know it's not a discussion, and I know it isn't posted in your thread, However, Marth boards have done this over a billion times, searching helps.

I know it's searchable, but I was hoping the boards could summarize in a much more accurate fashion than I ever could (considering the information is so scattered).

Also, I am looking for ratings most specifically. Zones and klling are rated from Amazing to Above Average to Average to Below Average to Terrible and spacing is rated from comfortable to bearable to uncomfortable.

Zoning
Ground - MK's - 1 (So probably somewhere between Above Average and Amazing)
Air - Amazing - 0.5
Off Stage - Average + 1

Spacing
Extreme/Long - Negligible
Medium - Very Comfortable
Close - Comfortable

Killing:
Power - He has the power but not the spam. So what... between Average and Above? Probably above/close to Falco.
Gimping - Average. Or similar to Falco.

Also you currently have 1337 posts.

On a technicality, Marth has AMAZING killing power. He just can't, you know, actually land them.
Well, I exaggerate. Probably above average. He has numerous moves that kill around or before 130%

And I was under the impression that Marth was the second best gimper in the game.
