Welcome to the Nolimar Meta-Game Discussion Thread!
We all know Nolimar is a Viable character, and with MK gone, I feel it's time to bring him in to keep a solid 38 character cast.
To start things off, Nolimar is most viable with a custom control scheme.
I personally use
L = shield
R = shield
Z = shield
C-stick = tilts
A = attack
B = specials
X and Y = jump
Dpad = taunts
tapjump off
You have to be good at Whistle Armoring to play nolimar, that's the main way you will survive.
Stay onstage at all costs, your only attacks are
all tilts
jab
n-air
dash attack
getup attack
ledge attacks
F-tilt is your main kill move, but sourspotting N-air can be used for gimping (I've done it on wario)
Pretty much, your best chance is with camping. Run away. If you play the meta-game correctly you'll feel like a mouse, Run and hide all day. Milk those 8 minutes and try to hold all three stocks using whistle armor. If you never die, And kill your opponent once, Nolimar can beat anyone.
