I don't factor Kevin or how I perform vs characters into how good I think they are...

Kinda insulted actually lol
It wasn't supposed to be insulting.

That first sentence about "how I do" was not meant to be related to the part about PP, but rather to the rest of my post.

The part about PP was just playful sarcasm separate from everything else, and happened to be placed in between. :)

Peach beats Zelda down because she's the better princess.
Peach: Come on in Mario, I'll bake you a cake.

Zelda: xxxx you Link, give me back my ocarina.

:urg:

The Lake was really fun to see today. And play against. Fighting against Zelda is so weird. Especially as Zelda, lol. But good games :D

you can throw hitboxes around smarter than the other player.
In fact, I learned how to beat TheLake.
you gotta make sure you're playing him during losers finals so that somebody walks over to your TV and unplugs his controller.

I like wavedash OoS lots as Zelda vs Falco. And I'm not averse to platform movement.

Then again, I've never played vs a top level Falco.

I can bring him to one stock as Zelda,
Mow :3

But yea that's Kevin for ya, doesn't really make mistakes and you can only out play him like rarely

Wavedash oos is important with Zelda but iunno how helpful it can be vs high/top level falco's, I feel like any Zelda would still get hit by falco's _______

:phone:

Edit: maybe like Wavedash oos downsmash... Hmmm....

I have faith in you Umbreon. :3

Yeah if Falco is trying to camp you, you can like, camp him back with platform shenanigans.

Do you guys roll a lot against Falco? I find it really helpful lol.

GKI, will you be ready for some Zelda dittos when you come out here? :secretkpop:
Yeah definitely! Man, the first few years that I played this game I hated all ditto matchups but now I really like them. I've only done zelda dittos two times ever (that I can remember) since no one I ever play against uses her, so it should be a lot of fun. Kawn, PNaleek, and Maxwell2swell are the only zelda mains I've ever met. Do you actually main her?

I have only done them once with TheLake; a few months ago when he was here for a tournament (it was a friendly), and after one game we just played other characters lol. It was still fun though.

And I do actually main her, but I haven't always. I started with Sheik around 2 years ago, then decided to pick up Fox because I wanted to press more buttons. I then traveled to an Illinois tournament (Sakurai Can't Save You Now 4) last November and watching Cosmo inspired me to play her. That tournament, to my knowledge, was the last one he went to before becoming inactive. I regret not playing/talking to him at all but I didn't really think anything of it at the time. :urg:

But yeah Zelda has since become my best character and I use her for every match-up beside Sheik, where in that case I'll just do the ditto. In friendlies of course, I have to play other characters to keep myself entertained.

This is just my opinion on the raw match-ups (going down the MBR tier list in order), and I want to know what you guys think too. It would be cool if we all posted our thoughts and averaged the numbers or something.

Yes, I think Zelda is that good against IC's lol. Kick, d-smash, and f-smash. Those are the only moves you need to use for them. What else are they going to do to you if they can't grab you?

I'd put falco at 40:60, marth at 30:70, and ICs at 60:40, otherwise I agree with what you put. ICs can blizzard/ice block camp zelda if they get the percent lead and if done properly it's pretty hard for her to approach

I'd have to agree with gk with his vs ICs and vs and vs Marth opinions, but falco's like 35:65 imo

Falco has like super combos, and plays hella super option coverage bros, and you have no real oos game vs good Falco's. You can still get some mean combos in though (I've been experimenting with Upthrow -> downsmash at like mid percents), and good edgeguarding (same viceversa); lasers arent too bad either, but they can still cause grief.
