Smash Rookie
The year is 20XX... Jk its 2015 and bowser is a fukcing joke character...to the weak minded. Bowser mains need to realize that Bowser has more potential than F tier, I'd say D tier...maybe. Anyways here is a simple guide to beating everyone...Except Shiek. All info in this guide is for youngins picking up bowser and none of this info applies to DJ Nintendo bcuz he is bowser and jus wins
Vs Space Animals.
-Up B Oos is 2Gud do that any time they approach if they wanna get lame and fake you out, roll towards them hold shield and up b out of it works 25% of the time.
-All space animals think they're good, but there not they move around like crazy showing off mediocre tek skill at best. Best thing to remember is if they want to kill you they gotta approach you so when they get close enough fake em with a jab read a wave dash or roll and side b that btich. Then proceed to combo **** them appropriately
-neural b that **** is hawt species up bs think they hot but u hotter gimp species when they try to recover until they go low enough to go straight up and try to sweet spot ledge. In this situation you have to react fast enough to stop fire (cuz end lag is gay) then down tilt ledge repeatedly in a situation where they side b forward tilt wins 100% of time against space side b ps you can angle that **** too.
vS Fox
He wins matchup 90% of time but you can win if you catch him slipping
-what to avoid
Everything
Don't get hit
Everything kills you
Your shield sucks
Your recovery is shine spike practice for fox
Shine of course
What to do
HARD READS
GIMPS
SIDE B
UP B OOS
Neutral as well as vs Falco
Fair is God
First jab Is aight
Grab if you can
All throws do well especially down throw because it looks coolest
Up throw is good if your below platform because you can lead to an up air read which kills early on smaller stages
Vs Falco
What to avoid
Lasers of course after you get to like 40% of laser camping just rush in and go ham
Falco beats you in neutral 100-0 he is gonna rush in with fair and nair always your only hope is to hope he can't l cancel on shield then up b oos or shield grab
Don't get shined or you die (obliviously) try too DI to a platform and hope he sucks on platform follow ups
Stages to take space animals
Battlefield
Yoshis
Poke floats
Everything else is bad
fD is a joke you just get 4 stocked there
Dreamland gives them too much room to run
FOD is lame in general
Pokemon stadium is always in their favor
Vs marth
Bowser actually wins this match up in most cases unless you are playing a good Marth you win the match up bcuz no one knows how to play bs bowser
Keys to match up
Play off fact that no one knows how to play against you once they figure out thy can ken combo you at any % ur fukced
Try to approach with fair and avoid his fsmash range try to time ur jumps and wave land back to confuse him (nair works too)
Don't get grabbed everything marth has leads to ken combo
What to do
Fair Nair spam is God
You grab him
You can gimp him hard with ftilts and dtilts
Neutral b has potential unless they spam up b
What to avoid
Everything
Stages
Just try to survive anywhere you just lose lol
Vs falcon
Your shield is ass so knee will most likely hit when your shield is full anyways
Same as fox Falcons spam weak tek skill and run everywhere just catch them slipping with jabs tilts side b reads and fairs
What to do
Let his ass come to u up b oos is good
Your hit boxes are pretty big and can hit him while he goes in for something
You can gimp him easy because his recovery is always the same just do standard bowser gimps tilts and ****
Get grabs it'll throw off his momentum and piss him off
What to avoid
Grabs most grabs lead to knee
Watch out while recovering he will probably stomp u and even tho you can meteor cancel it bowsers recovery is diick so you can't go upwards
Nair is really good against bowser it has two hits and covers half the stage so jump around and throw fairs
Stages
Go battlefield and dreamland everything else gives falcon running room which will kill you
Vs ice climbers
You win this match up nasty like 100-0 unless you get grabbed then it is 0-100 ice climbers
What to avoid
Grabs
What to do
Split them up you can do this easily with fair or nair even if popo shields nana shields it's already too late once they're apart up b oos and when nana runs back down smash is God
Once it's 1v1 vs popo fair him off stage and when he side b recovers read his landing and up smash side b forward smash whatever kill that ****
Stages
Go battlefield and FD everything else is good for them
Vs Peach and Jiggs
Fukc. That's all I gotta say about these matchups the odds are like 1-99 bowser this is pretty much sakurai letting peach get revenge on bowser for always stealing her dumb ass and jigs is just jigs so you lose by default
What to avoid
Playing these characters
Peach: DSmash turnips any aerial
Jiggs: rest and any aerial
What to do
Hope they suck which is impossible because these characters just win
Just experiment in Match and think about why you chose to play bowser in the first place
Try to piss off your opponent before and during your match to throw them off
Stages
Doesn't matter just turn pause off and go temple
Vs Shiek
Lol
What to do
Unplug their controller and still get JV5ed
What to avoid
Play any shirk and you will find out
Stages
Go FD just so you can say you've been JV5ed before
Hope you guys enjoyed this Bowser guide on how to win for more information on match ups watch DJ Nintendo videos or mang0 combo videos so you can get inspiration to main Spaciez good luck bowser mains
