Samus Kill percent's for snake

[Zodiac]

Why? Because I am going to a tournament this weekend, at that tournament there will be a snake I have played a set with and lost every match against, even though they were close ones. So I decided to do some legwork and figure out at what percents I should start thinking about landing the killing blow on Snake, have fun with it.

This MU is one that you have to play very carefully. On top of snake never dying, Samus has a hard time killing. Try to get him offstage with zair. He's a heavy, so zair is something you should be using to keep him and his tilts away, and use missiles while you have the space to. I don't recommend battlefield because of how much easier it will be for snake to close in on your and/or set up traps that limit the space you have to move around. But if you feel comfortable on that stage, go for it. Work with your neutrals and counterpicks. PS2 is one of my favorite counterpicks as samus, and I also like YI, because samus doesn't have a kill move that sends people up reliably (disregarding dtilt) and its easier to control the center of the stage.

Gimps are very useful vs Snake

Personally, I'm not a Samus main. But I do, however, appreciate the sort of work you did here, regarding KO percents. I think it's pretty cool and useful to have these around- Especially, with variants, such as distance and DI capability.

I think it's really that that, realistically, in this MU, your strongest KO move KO's at 150% at the earliest. I really didn't know D-Smash & D-Tilt would be that weak. On my end, Bowser's D-Tilt, KO's Snake under 150%, with best DI...
