How to play Ike

[Cheetor720]

Is Ike supposed to be played offensively or defensively, aggressively or passively?

If you ask these sorts of questions you'll never be good, so just put your controller down and sell your wii on Ebay.

Brookman that was a bit mean, anyway if you want to know read one of the guides or go to the competitive ike thread, and ask. Although in the end it comes down to what you think is best. On that point I would have to agree with Brookman when he says stop playing, because if you really do not enjoy playing at a competitive level and are only playing so you can be good. Then, just stop playing, because your own metagame can be only established through playing experience. That also includes losing, which you will have to love b/c it will help you so much. Whenever you got killed b/c you got camped don't complain about it, and say oh that guy was being a noob by camping. Instead re-evaluate your game/approach method and try to find ways to improve it. Ultimately only one playstyle can help you be the best you can be for Ike (or any character) and that is your own.

lol moral lesson wall of text

Lol.
If a guy is camping an Ike, he isn't being a Noob, he is being smart >.>...
Why on earth would someone want to be inside of Ike's range when they can deal with him from outside of it?
:3 Silly!

But everything else you said was basically right...
-DD

Hey brookman "you can at least word the truth a little nicer" is what I meant.

It's actually a reference to John Petrucci psycho videos.
