Olimar Matchup Thread

[Llumys]

I think it'd be a good idea to use ba/a/n/d/bd until we get every single character covered.

Once we do so, then we can go into ratio details. Some of us are too focused on throwing out numbers randomly, such as myself.

 

[Fino]

ba/a/n/d/bd

Big Advantage / Advantage / Neutral / Dominance / Big Dominance

either way... our worst MU is neutral ;D

Fino, make sure you get some good money matches against well-known Marth and Luigi mains at Pound4.

 

[Tin Man]

Big Advantage / Advantage / Neutral / Dominance / Big Dominance

either way... our worst MU is neutral ;D


~Fino

lol?

anything worse then big dominance/disadvantage requires secondary, otherwise big dominance/disadvantage is winnable.

Alright, enough discussion about what matchup numbers mean :/

We'll be starting a new character matchup soon, when we're done with the Snake Matchup (which should be done in a couple of days). Who would everyone like to discuss? I'm leaning a bit towards Luigi, myself, but what are everyone else's opinions?

I say... Falco. :X

I need help with that matchup. >.>

 

[Noa.]

I also need help with Falco.

I just got wrecked by one last tourney. I don't like the matchup. >.>

 

[Llumys]

I play Minus every week or so. He got 25th at SNES with a controller that wasn't his, so I think that shows how good he is. <_<; I have a lot to say about the match-up, and I can provide videos of us playing each other.

I won't go into detail, but you shouldn't leave the ground much against Falco.

If we get a thread up, I'll post all my thoughts on the match-up.

 

[Sky Pirate]

My vote is for G&W. That matchup seems like the single most boring matchup in the entire game when I play it to win. There has to be a better way. <<;

 

[Llumys]

I'm up for discussing Game & Watch. I just don't want certain people to just name 2 or 3 moves and say it's an easy match-up.

 

[IcyLight]

game and watch is easy, just pivot grab, smash di his turtle down and dsmash him before the last hit of turtle, and uhhh that's it, nair smash is nice and purple usmash kills at ~60 on battlefield

I want some stage discussion, a lot more detailed situational discussion, etc.

 

[Tin Man]

Falco, or Game and watch, I'm fine with

 

[DanGR]

errr... down? If they're spacing it right I don't think a dsmash would even hit... and how do you get below the turtle in the first place? If he's using it while falling, I didn't think there was enough room under him to dsmash in the first place... >_>

 

[Fino]

*Raises hand for falco*
MW has too many IC mains and such for falcos to exist ^^;


~Fino

 

[Denti]

can we do falco?


my hardest match ups i woudlnt mind talking about are Falco, Wolf, IC, MK, ROB, and Shiek.(use to be snake but after the discusion i got a better hang of the MU )

 

[mcmuff1nman]

Ummm, TLink or ROB please...?

I hear there is a secret to killing ROB. >__>

 

[Denti]

a secret?!?!??!?!?!

 

[Llumys]

We're having trouble deciding, so we should decide by previous match-up numbers or the tier list.

 

[Tin Man]

I agree with going down the tier list, gets s*** done faster

 

[Fino]

Ummm, TLink or ROB please...?

Get him in the air over 80% and bash that yellow stick on your controller up as many times as you can.

Bowser Board is discussing Ollie-mar (again).

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=211975

 

[Llumys]

"Ollie-mar". Really? <_<;

I'm not too familiar with the match-up, but I'm sure we have at least 60-40.

 

[B!squick]

Yeah, Ollie. As in...

 

[Llumys]

Oh! I get that reference! It's funny!

 

[Denti]

someone with good bowser experience go help them out! i told them the idea of what i would do, but i havent sat down and practiced a bowser main untill i got everything down, i figured pikmin tossing pressure along with purple tossing for follow ups and stuff.

 

[Tin Man]

Yeah, Ollie. As in...

just saw this nao, lmmfao

 

[Sesshomuronay]

Hello, Olimar Brawlers! I have recently started a thread about different pairings for Toon Link in Team Brawls, and I would greatly appreciate some input on a TL + Olimar match. You can find the thread here. Any info would be tremendously helpful.

 

[HiMe]

Hey can we discuss wolf please? I have a lot of trouble with him.

 

[Llumys]

Here's what I think we should do.

1. Discuss match-ups in order of the tier list unless another board needs discussion.

or

2. Discuss match-ups in order of difficulty unless another board needs discussion.

 

[DanGR]

Or we could just discuss the characters a majority of players need help with. After all, that's the only reason we have a matchup thread.

 

[Denti]

i need help with wolf too, his blaster, Bair and down smash can be to much at times.

This, I agree

 

[Noa.]

We should just discuss most of that all of that matchups of B tier and above and then move on to the lower tiers. The order that we go in for the higher tiers is basically whatever we feel like. If the boards want to discuss ROB and then next week Marth, so be it.

The only exceptions to the rule of staying in the higher tiers would be Wolf, Peach, and Luigi, since they're notable matchups that Olimar players have trouble in.

 

[Greward]

we should do MK for obvious reasons first.

 

[IcyLight]

i wouldn't mind a revamp of our mk matchup, a lot has changed since we went over that

 

[mcmuff1nman]

Am I the only 1 who needs help with ROB? And yeah, good Wolfs are quite problematic for me too =/
