Now hear me out. This isnt a rage post lol. Little Mac can be beaten thats for sure. I main Captain Falcon. A down tilt on a Mac at like 70-100% is usually a death sentence. However...
Lets face it. For Glory is filled with complete scrubs, morons. So basing your skill against Little Mac judging on your For glory matches should be through right out the window.
I have a friend, who was super into Brawl competitively, and now hes in Smash 3ds. And now Little Mac is his main. And he brought a ton of new things I need to know about Little Mac. So lets list em off.
-His speed.
We all know how fast he is. And perhaps my views are clouded since I more or less only play falcon and his smashes are considerably slower than most, but Little mac has some pretty god like speeds on his smashes and tilts, so fast that they are really hard to punish when hes in the hands of a good player. Also this, how many players in For Glory have you seen use his Down Dodge? None right? Like I said before, they're scrubs. His dodges, perhaps have the fastest recovery I've seen, even his air dodge, combine that with his smash speeds? Again, hard to punish him for missing.
-His Counter.
Now I know for a fact none of you have seen frequent use of his counter in For Glory, but his Counter, makes his one weakness pretty hard to abuse, like I said. In the hands of a good play, his counter can, and most likely WILL **** you over in your attempts to gimp him, unless you quickly adapt to your opponents playstyle quickly and bait it out. Which I can manage to do on a few occasions, but never the less, this makes gimping him extremely hard as it will hit you most likely since its not like Shulk ****ty counter in mid air. Couple that with on stage and its very lethal.
-His Down Smash
You may think I've covered this already but his down smash is by far his best move. Why? It has an extremely large hit box. That can be used for edge guarding. If you're knocked off stage, and your opponent has average timing, sorry you're not recovering, depending on the character at least. Keep in mind this is from a mindset for characters who's main recovering ability is very vertical and used for grabbing the edge.
I know its hard to believe me when it comes to these assumptions since most of everyones views of Little Mac is so clouded by For Glory, but play against a player who seriously knows his ins and outs, and he becomes a very tough opponent. Like I said I'm not really raging, me and him go at it neck and neck a ton of times, and I'm glad I'm playing against someone of his level cause hes showing me how deadly Mac can be, I'm gona be recording some matches to later update this thread with. Perhaps more verteran players can watch them to tell me I'm wrong and how to counter his play, but when it comes to trashy For Glory players who do the super predictable **** compared to this guy. Trust me, whos above their level. He knows how to recover with Mac, he knows his speed, he knows his potential.
