For the example I gave, you're completely right. I worded it awfully, my mistake.

I see where I messed up. My apologies :)

In this case, it's about 2%. This specific case.

But you can't just take two separate probabilities and add them together. That isn't how it works, lol.

I just want to make sure everyone knows how math works lol. People were implying you could just add the %s, which is kasjcnksdjnakdsf. But yes, in this case it's about the same % regardless, I'm just being a pain about proper math :p

Yeah, I applied single event rules (thinking about the chance of a trip bring one event) to multiple event situations (2 decks, 2 climbers). I just derped.

Rich Brown has the highest trip rate.

lol, actually olimar does trip way more than normal though just bc hes on the ground so much. Pika flies around like a vampire bat so I dont find myself tripping much.

Olimar trips way more than other characters because if he's moving horizontally, it's via foxtrot. Olimar players do it to themselves.

Characters that dash a lot trip a lot, naturally. Captain Falcon, ZSS, etc.

It probably isn't a coincidence that higher-tier characters have awesome options while walking or standing still. I can't remember the last time I saw Snake trip (though I don't really look for it).

I think Salem trips like 100 times a match.

Also one of the perks to being a character with a good walk speed (eg Marth, ZSS, Falco)
I didn't realize that, I actually looked it up and there are very interesting results there. Walk speed rankings:

1. Marth, Fox
2. Sonic
3. Sheik, ZSS
4. Wolf, Falco
5. Pikachu, Diddy Kong
6. TL, Meta Knight
7. DK, Squirtle, Link
8. Pit
9. Yoshi
10. ROB
11. Game and Watch, Mario
12. Luigi
13. Samus
14. Ivysaur
15. Lucario
14. Ice Climbers
15. Dedede, Kirby
16. Olimar
17. Ike
18. Peach
19. Falcon, Ness
20. Wario, Snake
21. Lucas
22. Zelda
23. Bowser
24. Ganondorf
23. Jigglypuff
24. Charizard

Interestingly enough, a character's dash speed doesn't really have very much to do with their ability to traverse big distances quickly. For example, Mario makes it across FD at the same time as Pikachu

walk accelaration is more important than walk speed though. falco and marths walk for example are more useful than sonics because sonic takes a while to get to max walk speed to position himself and space properly, which is why we all just run and spincancel more.

I wouldn't trust that list, SFP. It doesn't like very...let's say, authentic and in-depth.

Pikachu's dash speed > Mario's, and Pikachu's running speed > Mario's, and Pikachu's dash speed > Mario's running speed. So assuming these numbers use the same units (it seems they do) then Pikachu can travel across FD faster.

And according to the list, Falco's max walking speed is slightly slower than ICs' running and dashing speeds

All I know is in comparison of their walk/dash speeds, Charizard gets the greatest benefit from dashing, and Fox gets the least.

Watch my videos noob

EDIT: to elaborate
ground > air transition is a lot more flexible than air > ground transition
so I have more options if I stay on the ground, and jump when necessary, rather than the other way around

You know, it'd be nice if we stopped saying super one dimensional things like "why is Jigglypuff on the ground."

Maybe one day.

Is it just me or does jigglypuff the only character to have absolutely no representation at the top level of play? Ganon, Zelda and Link all have had solid players at some point in the games history. I cant think of any notable wins by any jigglypuff ever.

He said that Zelda had representation at top levels of play. If the top Zelda got beaten by a Puff would that puff not be on the same level or above?

Meno on Troll status.

Dapuffster had some wins in the past, but he's no longer active.

My only notable wins are just from my region (like Clowsui, S2, and Hael Phael). I've taken games off of AZ and other mid/mid high players, but never sets. Working on that though

I feel like Jiggs has fewer abusable gimmicks than Ganon and Zelda. Ganon and Zelda have some really annoying stuff that most people don't know how to deal with, Jiggs doesn't really have anything like that.

Zelda got timed out. She has no options because Puff can easily cancel Din's Fire.

Jiggs does have fewer gimmicks but she is safer and has an above average recovery. She can also semi WOP a few characters. I also think nair is her best move and that her dacus is underused.

Few reasons for this
1. No reason to like her. Ganon and Zelda can have fans just because of how popular Zelda is.
2. Very basic playstyle, no gimmicks to offer.
3. She sucks.
4. Many characters fill the same niche, but better.
5. Nerfed noticeably from Melee (makes her seem worse than she is, due to perspective)

in no particular order

Gimmicks are gimmicks. Ganon might have an easier time beating a low-tier-ignorant player, but that's not how we measure a character's strength.

Puffs just need to figure out ways to land Rest. If that happens she may go up on the tier list :awesome:
Puff's should be better at landing Rests, yes. But she shouldn't move up much, if at all.

Jiggs does have fewer gimmicks but she is safer and has an above average recovery. She can also semi WOP a few characters. I also think nair is her best move and that her dacus is underused.
You would be quite wrong, imo, but k.
Why do you think nair is her best move?
