I really don't see how Mario goes mostly-even with the whole Smash 4 roster. I see people everywhere post 'Mario goes even or better with everyone,' it seems to be the consensus. But when I go Mario vs. a Bowser, or a King Dedede, in For Glory, I consistently have a much harder time than most of the other characters (besides good Shieks and ZSS'). Admittedly, I didn't quite notice the unevenness of these match ups until I got completely creamed on Anther's Ladder by both Bowser and KDDD. Nonetheless, Bowser in particular seems to have a solid advantage over Mario because of the higher range and damage output. I don't even play Bowser, but I counterpick him against Mario mains all the time online, and have a much easier time winning than through a Mario ditto.
I tried looking at Ally's Mario vs a Bowser in tournament in hopes of gaining some match up insight, but he had a much harder time winning as Mario than as Shulk. (see Ally vs Calm Animal at SW 41). It seems a longer-range secondary character is necessary as a Mario main.
Of course, most of what I read on Smashboards goes against what I'm saying, so I'd really just like to hear counterpoints about my view on these match ups.
