How is that a biased opinion? It's the truth. Most top level players think so. I think so too.
Some think hes even better than that such as M2k who thinks olimar is a Top 5 singles character.
I think that's too far but he's definitley top of high tier imo. Only major fault he really has is his gimpable recovery.
And I've learned that can be worked around after playing Weruop who has mastered Olimar's recovery to a great degree. I can almost never gimp and that accounts for a decent % of my kills vs Olimar in the matchup.
If I don't get a gimp Im at least able to punish their airdodges or gain damage if their whistling.
Vs weruop it's not necessarily the case.
He said Non-Biased. Because you aren't an Olimar main with dreams of one day proving Olimar is the greatest in Brawl.

It was aimed at everyone that has seen an Olimar player **** another good player and automatically assumed that he's an insanely good character.I hope that wasn't directed at me
He's not. Don't get me wrong, he's still good. He has some great matchups, and he's extremely hard to adjust to, but once you do, he has a couple awful weaknesses that other top and high tier characters don't ever have worry about. (Some top players still fail to see them, and that's a big reason why they lose the matchup)

First of all for us to all at least believe a word you say you gotta spell "Tear" like "Tier"
Second of all PEOPLE need to WIN in tournaments for Olimar to get higher you cant just say OLIMAR FOR HIGH TIER NAOWWWW!!! It doesn't work that way ....
Third... Yes I agree Olimar should be in high tier.. soon... as well as peach ...it will happen whether we like it or not .. he is a amazing character once people master him

no, he's right. Relative to the damagable area that is Olimar, his attacks do cover good ground.
Anyway, innevitably his recovery hampers his progress up the ladder. But the way I see it (at least concerning me) Olimar can beat most Donkey Kongs, Lucarios, Warios and such. His grab game is (again in my opinion) as good as DDD's, his camping is effective and so on. He should go higher but that's also dependent on the Oli players making a name on the tournament scene
Well we already know that.
I say at the most he'll make it to the lower portion of High Tear. Heh.

He's really better than that.
I know, but his big disadvantages (character wise) will always be holding him down, and until we find a way around them to place high in tournaments that's where we are going to stay.
He's already high Middle Tier, and apparently while I was gone we learned he is some kind of MK counter or at least even with him so that will obviously help him up but he still has bad match ups.

you missed the point of my post
he called oli's ground game "good"
i called him insane
why?
cause oli has one of the *best* ground games
Heh. Asob is confusing everyone with his unknowingly implied sarcasm.
@DanGR: Oh...well then it doesn't apply to me :D
