okay, go ahead..


I think Yoshi is...

Meh

I know he has a lotta potential, that's sure

Alright...

Here it is

Yoshi has some potential set-ups with a grab release to Marth follow up or some other luck things like that, but that's it.

He is more of a hindrance than a help, he is gimped easily, Marth can't brnch off and attack by himself, etc.

LOL

Directly above you tipping a dair.
I think the most annoying things about yoshi are his tounge and dair spam (even tho his tounge is so zetta slow, yes, TWEWY and Pi-face ftw). I think counter and dancing blade are your friends here. Considering yoshi's up+b isnt really a recovery i think finding a way to gimp yoshi with dancing blade is the way to go. On the ground, yoshis moves arent all that stellar (his down smash is kind of annoying to get hit by tho). I havent fought many pro yoshis tho so forgive me if i cant contribute much.

You do know this is a discussion of having Yoshi on your team?

Last I heard, killing your teammate is bad. That's just me though.

Anyway, Yoshi is pretty subpar in a team. He gets ganged up on easily which hinders Marth's tendency to branch out on his own. Also, you can save Yoshi by forcing him to DI up from your Dolphin Slash if he's lost his second jump.

He can set up some grab releases and allow you to follow up, but that's character dependent and it's very hard to set up in teams.

I don't know, he's going to be hindering you more than helping. His eggs have a slightly misleading hitbox, but not by much...

I don't know. Shok, at least put up some decent team-ups between some of them. Kirby almost cut it, but not quite.

If we are actually going to discuss doubles partners, then cut the bull****.

there's no point in discussing these crap characters. ATLEAST LET US DISCUSS TOURNY VIABLE CHARACTERS.

Seriously, we do not need to discuss every character for this, waste of time.

Ouch. wasn't that a little harsh? You really don't want a bunch of Yoshi mains coming in and telling us about how good Yoshi is. >_>
