None of your buisness, you stalker.
Sooo, you like to play castlevania i've been thinking of picking up olimar lately because i wanted a character who would do well in tournaments while still being a character from one of my favorite franchise. Does he have a steep learning curve?

Olimar can be easy to pick up, but being at a disadvantage with olimar "can" be the nightmare from hell. If you do pick him up, he is all about making combos with his down throw + grab range, useing smashes as spacing, pikmin tossing to pressure your opponent to approach, and watching your pikmin line and making choices that are relevant to your line set up. being gimped is something you'll just learn how to avoid after awhile, it doesn't happen to most olimar mains a lot because we learn how to avoid those situations.. but it still happens and still sucks hard. any specific questions i can help you with? and yes Llumys is correct about the Q and A thread. :)

Olimar has a lot to remember/keep track off to play him, and playing him will be frustrating for awhile, but after you get everything down he's really fun and definitely tournament viable. Sorry but I'll have to close this thread :( If you have any more questions, ask in our Q&A thread :D
