When i play online i want variety,anyone does right? It spices things up and keeps it interesting.But all that i bump into is ryu,mario,little mac,sheik and the occasional pikachu. it gets boring and it makes me stop caring because i cant find anything new online. plus all of their techniques are the same marios infinite starts up the battle , sheik spams senbon (if it is not a good player),ryu uses focus punch and f smash and starting up with both hadoukens little mac spamming jab and nuetral-b and we all know what pikachu spams. Do you see this aswell?

People are going to simply pick the characters that they like, whatever the reasons may be. Even if you don't like the character yourself, you should at least respect other people's choices.

For me, I don't typically run into a lot of Ryu players (I play Ryu a lot myself) but I do see a lot of Roy players. Still, I understand why a good number of people would want to play as Roy.

There must be regional differences, I've been seeing a lot of Ike, Roy, Lucas/Ness, Captain Falcon and Pikachu here. A scattering of others, but not as many.

Its all Lucas/Ness/Falcon/Lucina/Marth for me....
I do wonder if people keep pkaying those chars because everyone likes them or that they think they are the only good chars in the game....
I beat so many people with Dorf & DDD..
My mains.
K.Rool soon.

Links and Macs everywhere.
I am so thankful I don't get the opponents you do.


I don't mind facing the same opponent if they win -- it gives me a second try at beating them. Especially if I was on my secondary and wanted to switch to my main for round two.

The little macs are just really easy, while the links are campy. Why play the game if you just use campy tactics.

I mainly find a lot of fast paced, close range characters online like Captain Falcon, Roy, and Mario. Outside of Link and Ness, I actually don't see all that many projectile heavy characters online, and even they are fairly rare compared to the other three I mentioned (of course, I also play Palutena, and most players either know or figure out pretty quickly not to try and zone her out).

On the other hands, I'm always delighted when I see some Olimars, WFTs, R.O.B.s or Palutena.

Captain Falcon and Ness takes the cake on this one. Every time I start a For Glory session, they pop up everywhere.

I should try entering the lottery soon. Not only did I see a bunch of rarely used characters like Olimar, Wii Fit Trainer, Zelda, and R.O.B. online today; but I didn't run into many people playing any of the characters that I mentioned earlier.

What's going on?

Ike is becoming very common for me... C. Falc, Mac, Link, Zero Suit, Yoshi, Rosalina, and Sonic are all very common for me and all of them almost play the same. They either rush you down relentlessly or play super campy and defensively.

I actually don't see many powerhouse characters online. Ganondorf used to be super common, but nowadays he is pretty rare.

The only time I ever seem to run into any of them is when I face a player who specifically likes playing those kinds of characters. I wouldn't expect somebody on For Glory to counterpick Ike unless the first character they used was somebody like Donkey Kong or King Dedede.

ZeRo made a video discussing his buffs a couple of weeks back - I joked about an incoming deluge of Ikes into FG after that, but now that I think about it... my Ike is still as lonely as ever out there! Where all the Eisenhowers at?!
