Well the problem is that he can do a lot of combos that are precise, but I also agree when you say that Sheik, Rosa and Peach are technicalPac/Greninja/RosaLuma/Sheik/Peach are all some of the more technical characters, though i'm not really which is the most technical.
Ryu isn't honestly that technical if you know really basic SF footsies/fundamentals.
Well, execution with Ryu is kinda technical too, when you see Trela or Mr R doing a dair to true shoryuken, you're like D1, saying "HOLD DA PHONE"In order from least to greatest, these are my top 5:
Ryu mostly relies on execution, making him not terribly technical, which is something people exaggerate heavily.
Little Mac because you make one or two mistakes and you're down a stock.
Pac-Man because Pac-Man.
Rosalina because getting Luma into place is no easy feat with how sluggish neutral B is.
Mega Man because land anything other and Metal Blade and you need to reset.
That sounds pretty simple to me tbh, execution-wise. SF special move inputs aren't hard if you've had experience with them in the past.Well, execution with Ryu is kinda technical too, when you see Trela or Mr R doing a dair to true shoryuken, you're like D1, saying "HOLD DA PHONE"
Let's also not forget that Little Mac has arguably THE worst recovery of any fighter. Jolt Haymaker hinders Little Mac's horizontal mobility upon ending, and Rising Uppercut hardly offers any horizontal movement. And the custom variants of those moves don't make things any better either.Little Mac is just as stressful, cause one wrong move means you're losing your stock at 20%. You can not afford to mess up anything, especially since pretty much none of Mac's moves are safe on shield, it's not even about whiffing as it is "I need to hit the opponent with this move or else". Of course recovery is a ***** too, having to make split second choices on whether to recover high or recover low, and even if you do your best to read your opponent you'll still have to end up eating a Falcon dair or a Villager fsmash just because "Oh yeah I'm Mac I can't do **** about that"
Of course not using hem is the easy part the hard part is to be able to use their certain techs. Using and applying the other techniques take a high skill cap. For example, lunar landings with rosaluma, ryus more technical and precise combos, making good use of pikachus quick attack like edge canceling it for instance. These techniques are hard to learn and apply therefore making the character more technical.Eh, I wouldn't really agree with . They're all extremely good even if you don't have an extremely technical playstyle, I mean Rosalina has one of the best movesets in the game with how good the hitboxes are, Pikachu is so easy to approach and combo with and literally everything Ryu does hits like a truck. They're still characters that have really high skill ceilings, but the effort it takes to use them is nowhere near some of the other characters in the game.
Ryu might hit like a truck but its main problem is that its moves are really shortEh, I wouldn't really agree with .

His Rising Uppercut is also pretty useful when you use it to recover below the stage because the hit box will go through the floor of some stages.Let's also not forget that Little Mac has arguably THE worst recovery of any fighter. Jolt Haymaker hinders Little Mac's horizontal mobility upon ending, and Rising Uppercut hardly offers any horizontal movement. And the custom variants of those moves don't make things any better either.
Little Mac is heavily screwed when it comes to long distance recoveries, since his air mobility is only average, and he falls quite fast as well. And of course, the flaws that Jolt Haymaker and Rising Uppercut have add to the problems.
Lolwut?Toon Link is easily among the most technical.
I might be wrong, but this whole part here seems to contradict itself. Maybe I'm reading it wrong? In any case, I disagree with Sheik being more technical than Shulk, Duck Hunt, and most of all Peach. Peach has a lot more combo potential and requires a lot more skill to pull off her combos in general than Sheik does.Why Sheik?
Quick frame data doesn't garner you wins, you also have to have the technical skill of just meshing together combos, planning out fairs, and this character is very bread and butter. You pretty much have to know how to use combos to play this character.
Honestly I don't know. TL's metagame is a little lacking, he definitely has more potential than you usually see.Toon Link is easily among the most technical.
The contrast between a green Rosalina and a knowledgable is Rosalina is wide enough that she deserves to be called one of, if not the most technical character. Same with Ryu.Eh, I wouldn't really agree with .
