Fox vs. King Dedede
________________________________
Things to keep in mind while discussing!
Code:
* Keep a proper wording,
don't insult or yell at the other people discussing inside of this thread.
Although that shouldn't even be mentioned, I've seen it happen.
* Match-Up ratios are fairly subjective.
However, please don't overrate or underestimate a character.
Stuff like "lol, X can't do anything, RAEP!" is not going to aid us in our discussion.
* Don't theorycraft too much.
Keep in mind that while Fox or the character we're discussing in this thread
are able to do a certain move at a certain time, don't just throw this out,
but rather think if this is actually practical and used by good players of these characters.
* If you are new to the discussion, please don't state trivial things.
Best would be to read the discussion properly,
or at least the first and last few pages should the thread go on for a while already.
Saying "Fox can reflect all of X's projectiles." might be true,
but probably has already been mentioned.
* Discussions will be held for about 2 weeks - unless the need of expanding is felt.
The first week will bring a temporary ratio that then will corrected during the second.

Summary
IN-DEPTH DISCUSSIONI don't believe any knowledgeable Fox/DDD player believes this is a counter in any direction. 6/4 Fox's adv at best, although I would personally put it down at 50/50. 55/45 Fox's adv if you really want to sway that way, although imo it's not that big of a difference.
This MU is simple to play, no projectiles to dance around, no guaranteed CG to worry about, no combos to avoid, etc... not saying you should go into this expecting to win, because you shouldn't, just play patiently and look for openings and you'll be playing the MU correctly. It may sound oversimplified, but remember, you get outspaced, and when you get hit you, get hit hard.
Strategy & Match-Up Mentality
Aerial Game: DDD outspaces you on a head on attack in the air but you still excel in this area do to he can't do much when he is above you and fatness makes our combos even better.
Ground Game: If you overdo this DDD will be LOL and grab you through the TV. He also outspaces you but you outspeed him just don't do this.
Approach: Read the 1st sentence in Ground game.
Defense: Camp and punish he laggy moves to switch to offense and combo/string the Fatty
Camping Game: SHTL AND MORE SHTL it will force him to approach Waddle Dee, Do, or Don't it will force his approach, just do it.
Edge Game: Don't try this, you won't gain or lose anything just punish his Up B if you can force it.
Surviving: Dodging DDD moves should not be hard but when you are hit, you WILL fly, so don't expect to live past 120%
Killing: No early kills here just keep tacking on damage which isn't hard at all in this MU then around 130% go for the kill.
