I had this week my longest FG match against a Villager who was camping with Gyroid, Timber, and threatening with the F-Smash and grabbing. It lasted literally 4:59 minutes, and it ended with my Up-Smash when the announcer said "One". A epic, hard and definitive match. I lost one game later, but it felt so good. Wins or losses, what was your longest FG match?

I've had two matches that were 4:59 long.

The first match happened a long time ago so I don't remember all the details. I was playing Shulk and my opponent was playing Lucario. I ended up landing a forward smash during the countdown that KOed him. Outside if that, I've got nothing.

The second incident was more recent. I was playing a match against a Mario who was, like most FG players, rolling everywhere, fishing for grabs, and spamming smashes. Normally that wouldn't be so bad, but I was playing Sheik, so I didn't know how to set up any of her kill moves. Once the countdown started, he tried jumping off the stage in order to force sudden death, but I caught him with a forward air that KOed him. Had the match gone on 1/100th of a second longer, it would have gone to sudden death.

I've also had a few sudden deaths, but fortunately those are extremely rare since my main does very well against overly defensive and campy playstyles.

I also had a long match with a Villager just today. He just kept using Lloids/slingshots and it went to sudden death (where he beat me with a slingshot).

@dahuter Ganondorf never lets the matches go to time...the opponent is long destroyed before it.

I've had a few matches go to Sudden Death.

Perhaps the most notable one was when I was :4duckhunt: vs:4pacman:. Take two characters who are zoners, and have trouble killing, as well as me not having any experience with this matchup and it's an absolute trainwreck.

He ended up winning the match. I went :4falcon: the next match and it ended in like 2 minutes lol.

has anyone consistently faced Robins who take the match to time? because every single time someone is Robin (me or my opponent), SUDDEN DEATH.

The longest I had was when it was me as :4shulk: playing against this :4sonic: user who literally did nothing but dash attack, spin dash and all that bull****. Our match went to sudden death and right off the bat, he went for a dash attack...only for me to use Vision and send him flying off the screen. That match was a disaster.

I don't go to time since I'm a relaxed aggressor in-game and aim to get opponents in the air and off-stage. You can't stall in the air, unless if you want to die, lol.

Never had a match last more than 2 minutes on FG, honestly. Longest match I've recently was 3 minutes against this rolling-around-the-stage B-spamming :4tlink: player, when I was playing :4jigglypuff:, whom I'm inexperienced with.

Longest match I've had thus far was me as an aggressive rushdown :4rob: vs an equally aggressive :4zss: by the name of Chimmy (shoutouts to you, btw, for the tense yet thrilling 2 out of 3 set we had on 05/13/2015) that somehow went for 4 minutes and 50 seconds in the 3DS 1v1 room. I'll admit, I did not make sure my Gyro was out before I tried to approach pretty often. I lasted as long as I did because of both ROB's heavy weight and sheer proper DI. It also lasted longer than expected because once we reached our 2nd stocks, Chimmy started being more defensive than I was. I ultimately won it because ZSS overcommitted to trying to Grab --> FThrow? DThrow? --> Up B me near the ledge and somehow not only missed the Up B, but also the ledge because camera positioning was too zoomed in upwards for her to see where the ledge was (I think), and possibly me spooking her with a fully charged laser & my own approaching as well. Hopefully the named & uploaded replay "LongDrawnRush:GCD:!1" is still there in the 3DS ROB/ZSS FG 1v1 U.S. replay directory.

For some reason, I've been encountering a lot more really defensive players that absolutely refuse to approach...

Matches have been taken extra long cause of all the shields and dodging. Whats up with that?
