Corner-Trap
Smash Ace
I've been using them since the start of Brawl, and I have good experience with them in Melee, but for some reason I can't find myself progressing if I stick with them. After playing so many matches I find myself using other characters more often as counter picks than the IC's because they have so many bad match-ups, especially against the characters used heavily in tournaments. I've literally spent weeks practicing CG's and desynchs, mastering every setup and technique that has popped up since Brawl's release. I'm one of the few people who can honestly do alternate throws consistently, but all of it seems for nothing since anyone with basic knowledge of spacing can stay out of the IC's grab range. They're simply not that good in Brawl as they were in Melee, and I seriously miss WD'ing since it was such a cornerstone of their game. They just require to much work, when other characters can do much less work and reap even better rewards. The only reason I haven't quit them yet is because I don't feel comfortable enough with any other character to call them my main. I'm thinking about just pulling off an Azen and not have a main character. I tried contributing as much as I could to the IC community, but I don't have the enthusiasm to continue anymore.
