Ahhhhh

Yeah, what OddCrow said.

I main Villager, and second Jiggly, but I can say for sure, if someone plays Jiggly, chances are they'll enjoy Villager, and vice versa.

It's really not that hard to get a hang of him~

I second the Waa:4wario2:,his bike allows for easy pressuring and in my experience allows for him to quickly overcome projectiles, plus he has a nice air game too, so it was never hard to get used to him (at least for me).

I'm currently maining both Jiggs and Duck Hunt in this game, with no real preference for one over the other. I have always liked Jiggs since Melee, played with her just for the lulz in Brawl (although she was completely useless) and now I find her pretty fun to use in Smash 4. I use Duck Hunt because I find him as kind of a spiritual successor to Brawl Olimar, whom I mained, and I basically use Puff first, but if I find some matchups kind of hard with her (like against fast and annoying characters, such as Sonic or Yoshi) I switch to Duck Hunt, which usually fares well.

Sorry if I'm late for the party, but I saw this thread and I had to answer (As a Jigglypuff main of course).
My Main is Jigglypuff because of her design and playstyle. It is easy for me to use jiggs because I prefer to use Ariel attacks. It took me 2 months to master her, AND I've wont tournaments with her as well. My second main is actually Mario. I love to master Basic/Weak characters to use them to their full potential. Mario is no exception. Mario may be "Basic" but I use him and Jiggly to where their Weaknesses are not even present. So basically, Mario and Jigglypuff are just fun to use in Combat. That is why he is my Second Main.

:4jigglypuff:/:4mario:!!!!!!

My secondaries are all over the place, and switches all the time, but currently my secondaries are: Peach, Yoshi, Villager, DK, Marth, and maybe but not really Falco and Game+Watch.

I entered SSB4 dropping my 64/Melee/Brawl main Pikachu as I didn't like SSB4 Pikachu, and decided to main Dr. Mario because more-powerful Mario, but he was too slow and got gimped by every character in the freaking game. I took to using puff not because of rest, or her B-air finisher, but because of the wall of pain. I used her as a secondary in Melee, but the wall of pain puff strategy has been my most-reliable formula for winning games in SSB4, so I took her on as a main. Through every single game, my go-to secondary every time a main lets me down is Kirby, because he still has the puffball mechanic and very good aerials, but also has excellent ground speed and combo potential compared to puff.

SSB4 Secondaries (in order of priority): Dr. Mario, Kirby, Pikachu

Samus and Duck Hunt are my co-mains with puff. Puff is my go-to, but I can perform equally well with the other two and they all 3 have different strengths.

I do dable with Ganondorf, Villager, and Yoshi as secondaries though, but they're nowhere near as good as my main 3.

I've been wondering if Meta Knight covers Jiggs matchups decently as I've been having fun with him in the past weeks.

Ive been using Custom Mii Gunner as my secondary. Set: 3112. If its a very certain MU or if Custom Miis aren't avaliable, I use Dark Pit. Dark Pit should be my secondary, but my mii gunner is just better even though she isn't very good.

Jigglypuff is my third main behind Mario and Rosalina. Everybody else is a secondary, those being Dr. Mario, Luigi, and Roy. There's no strategic reason why, I just love the characters.

Mario is supposed to be easy, Rosalina is anything but easy, Dr. Mario isn't easy, and Roy is just right. Luigi I won't defend, but he's so much fun.
Besides, you won't get very far solo-maining, not in this metagame. Especially not Jigglypuff.

I said easy or dumb. Rosa fits the latter.

I disagree to both lol. This is the first game I play puff because she wasn't easy to play. She's my favorite character though because of how fun she was. Her combos and rest make her really fun, and how precise, relying on spacing and edgguardimg to kill, make her hard. Her only kill setups are low to mid percent rest combos, or jab to dash Attack at high percents.

Sadly inaccurate now, as much as I love Wario, my Meta Knight and Dedede were always better, probably since I've played them since Brawl, so they kind of kicked him off the secondary status all the way back in March. It now goes as follows.
Main: :4jigglypuff:
Large Usage gap
Secondary: :4metaknight:
Loose Secondary::4dedede:
For Fun/Tertiary: :4wario2::4olimar::4villagerf::4kirby:
I might eventually try to pull Wario back up to Secondary, but I'm probably too focused on Puff to do that :laugh:.

That couldn't be further from the truth. Jigglypuff is one of the most complex characters in the game, and have you landed a Rest?
I find boring characters dumb.
I can't even with you. First you tell me to drop a top tier, three high tiers, and a mid tier for another mid tier, then you claim that Rosalina's boring. Are you feeling okay?

I say this as a dedicated Puff player in every Smash game and someone who loves the character. You don't have to agree.

I use Ganon as my secondary because he is pretty much the polar opposite of Jigglypuff.

1. Ganon's moves can kill easily, in which Jigs can struggle to kill at times.
2. Ganon is heavy and hard to kill, in which Jigs is the lightest character and dies easy.
3. Ganon has better approach options such as Flame Choke, Back Air, Wizards Foot. Jigglypuff is more reactive and can't approach very effectively.
4. Ganon can take more hits so projectiles aren't as deadly.
5. Ganon has AMAZING customs such as Dark Fists and Wizards Drop Kick. So in a custom's tournament Ganon will have great moves. Jigglypuff's customs are pretty horrible with the exception of Pound Blitz and Leaping Rest.
