Out of my mains, which one would be the best olimar counter?

[mukoe890]

I have yet to fight a really good olimar, and I want to know as much as I can before I face the broken-ness that I hear so much about.
So right now I feel confident in my Marth, Lucas, Meta-Knight, TL & Luigi. From watching videos I can see that PK Fire with Lucas is good at keeping your distance from the pikmin spam. Or is this more a matter of which stage to choose against Olimar? I'm clueless now, I need guidance. Thanks.

Well, with Meta-Knight you can just hold A and have the pikmin just bounce off before they even get on you . Just my two cents.

Or you can go Kirby, suck him up and throw shit back at him.

Kirby's Pikmin > Olimar's

hmm lol i haven't even experimented with kirby absorbing olimar, how do his pikmin work?
that said, your marth Tlink and metaknight can all get the job done Disjointed hitbox >all
disjointed hitbox >>>> pikmin, and kills them 2

when you absorb him with kirby you press B and then kirby plucks them and throws them where he stands. I think farther too. And yea I have a feeling I'll have to rely on the sword people.

Meta Knight is good against Olimar.

I would suggest Meta Knight as well, but I also think he's good against everyone haha...whoever you use, just make sure that you gimp Oilmar's up-b recovery by edge-hogging. Even if he hits you with it he loses a stock.

Sonic can gimp Olimar's recovery in under 20% lol!

Well any character can gimp Olimar's recovery at 0%...assuming he's dumb enough to use his double jump off the stage without being hit
