So, here's a big heads-up.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Man, Toby sure must be proud of himself to make all of these collaberations.​
i actually can not tell if this is an elaborate joke or not

I was browsing the world war 3 meme hashtag and found the best tweet hands down:

So how high tier is Ridley generally considered? I can see he has some pretty bug weaknesses but also unique strengths. Probably pretty fun too if I could get used to a heavy weight.

I didn't realize that this was a parody account at first until I saw the Twitter bio, and I thought that the meme apocalypse was among us.

He’s ultra B A D. No-one uses him competitive last I heard(admittedly this was before the last patch, so dunno if that’s still true now)

not showing the front because it has my address and full name, and considering what happened yesterday with my parents, better safe than sorry.

So a Smash 64 mod exists that has side b, more characters, new stages. The Persona stage from Ultimate is even in this mod and it's super cool. See ZeRo's video on it here:

Ridley is a mid-tier in Ultimate. His big size and weight physics make him easier to KO than other heavies and easy to combo in general. However, he also feels like a swordie in that his range is REALLY freaking good and his KO power is quite solid. I personally hate playing against him because both my mains have stubby limbs, but he's well-balanced and a solid mid tier imo.

Thanks for your thoughts, but I have to chalk that up to so few playing him that the isn't so well known. And...

Having looked up tier lists for a moment, I agree with your points. One place showed match ups being around 1/3 positive, 1/3 negative and 1/3 neutral.

According to Eventhubs, Ridley is placed in 52 on their official tier list. And apparently his best & worst character match-ups are with Little Mac & Pikachu respectively, just some little facts.

I wouldn't listen to eventhubs. Their tier lists are not made by top pros OR smash analysts. Instead, it polls the general public. I wouldn't listen to them at all.

Ridley is usually considered mid. Imo he's pretty aight. His hurtbox not properly corresponding to his weight makes him die to stuff others wouldn't die to though. He needs a weight buff. But his kill options are really good, ledge game is REALLY good thanks to side b, edge-guarding is good thanks to nair and neutral b, disadvantage is bad, recovery is pretty mid. Mobility is okay, frame data average, actually neutral depends on the character he faces, pretty damn big hitboxes tho. He's alright.

My profile picture is an image of a character I voice, so I decided to try to draw him.

I was going to keep the color scheme, but it didn’t look very good with this art style, so I saturated it a little bit.

Ridley isn't bad, but he's not amazing by any means.


Come to think of it, the same can be said of almost every Ult newcomer thats not Inkling or Joker.
I thought the Belmonts were considered good?

What do the pros think about Terry?

I also quite enjoy that Ridley feels to play like his personality. He is the kind of a-hole to ledge guard with plasma breath and keep you cowering in the corner. He is a vile murderous cunning bully.

Well this kinda extends into most characters but it's neat and often kinda forgotten.

Or probably Wolf. Like seriously, there's been a LOT of Wolf matches from what I've seen lately.
