Here is the Official Metaknight vs Ganon matchup thread.

Well myself i play Ganon, and think the matchup is pretty much 50/50, because of the fact that Ganon will kill metaknight in 4 or 5 moves, where as metaknight must pull off a **** combo, although Metaknight has so much priority Ganons power makes up for this.

DO NOT DELETE THIS THREAD UNTIL AT LEAST 19:00 GMT.

Thanks In Advance.

I agree, the difference in weight is too much. If ganon lands a warlock punch thats almost half a stock right there! :O

60/40 gano imo

omd where do i start with this matchup so much epicness, this match is obv 50:50 cause of pur strength of ganon, his dair is amazing, his side b is unblockable and best of all HIS TAUNT IS A FRICKEN MINDGAME, just look at that sword come out *looks at sword*.
meta on the other hand is light and has no real solid approaches on this man beast, warlock punch deny's all of metas approaches if timed right and his blocking his up b easily sets up for a dair spike!

need i say more?

hooray to all ganon players out there, i love you all

At first I bought into all the MK hype, thinking that like any other match-up, it must be at least 70:30 in MK's favour (known as the "3rd commandment of Brawl").

However, much to my surprise after playing Ganon and experimenting I believe this match-up to be 80:20 in Ganon's favour! I know, I know, it may sound mind boggling, but bear with me and I'm sure you will think the same.

MK has speed, we all know this. But what MK lacks is power, a solid killing move, and most of all reliable gimps. As we all know, Brawl has no combs (see the "6th commandment of Brawl") so speedy, combo based characters tend to not do as well against characters with 4-5 solid strong hits for a kill. Not only this, but Ganon has very reliable gimps (the guaranteed Dair, reliable Bair, utilt, Wizard Foot, Ganon's hidden footstool jump bonus and Flame Choke suicides), just giving Ganon the edge he needs over Metaknight.

Now you may bring up that Metaknight has good range and the dreaded Tornado. Most people forget that Ganon has range to combat this. Wizard's Foot, Warlock Punch, ftilt, dtilt are all very quick moves with little lag and great range. Furthermore, Warlock Punch and Wizard's Foot can be used to outprioritise Mach Tornado. If you haven't figured out yet, Wizard's Foot is key to this match-up, much as fair is key to any Marth player. Wizard's Foot will help you gimp MK, has great range and can be used to beat Tornado.

This concludes my opinion on this match-up, it is a clear 8:2 advantage to Ganon.

5 day temp ban for saying what loool.......

There's not been anything said which is harsh enough AND plus my infractions have expired.

AND PLUS this topic is in the wrong section.

So once again brawl fails.

Hi Virgullaulallual in advanced.

The match of Brado vs Kmac convinced me, Kmac could barely kill ganondorf with his usmash so it's definitly 60/40 for ganon.

if you compare looks, ganon wins

Ganon should be played like a robot, im sure if you time his up b and jabs perfectly metaknight cannot attack. Example of this would be a level 9 ganon because they are impossible to beat from experience

Yes, Ganon beats MK in looks so hard.

Also, Ganon is the best character in melee, one forward air, and you're gone. That is all.


I will stop promoting spam when you stop promoting brawl.
...

What?


Why's everyone so hostile to Brawl here?



I mean, I understand melee>brawl any day of the week for me too (what am I entering Pound 4 in after all?), but can't we just get along?
