I actually tend to switch "mains" a lot... it's hard for me to decide on one character so I just don't main anyone and play all the characters I like in Smash 4. I have like zero character loyalty.

However, when Mewtwo comes out, that's gonna change. I swear to god that I will main Mewtwo. If I ever rotate mains again, I will curse myself and stab myself with a thousand needles. Character disloyalty will be no longer. I will no longer rotate "mains" - I will main only Mewtwo.
More arguing again... sigh. This is the 2nd time now I've come on here to see people arguing. Mewtwo's just been released, yet... arguing. :(

Same here!

Honestly, to me, right now Smash 4 feels as though it has little relevancy. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the game but without Mewtwo in it just yet I have no motivation to play it. I bounce around characters a lot as I never feel comfortable or happy with one. I tried Sheik and Yoshi for a while, but even they don't feel fun to play as and it's worse for me now knowing that Mewtwo is back, but he's just not in it yet. I've always been loyal to Mewtwo enough that no other character holds my interest for long. I've tried to have fun with it, but it's just not the same.

I know I'm a bit late to post, but I don't really care too much for another fighter to come into the game now. I got Mewtwo, and that was really all I wanted. But it's great to see Lucas back, and others getting a chance at their favourite character returning, so I will be happy with whoever joins the roster. That being said, I really hope it's another veteran that people want. Or Issac as my bf wants him back.

I really DON'T want to see characters like 'Miku Hatsune' or Shrek in the game (that's just stupid). Hopefully people don't act too immature when doing the ballot.

Don't worry, Nintendo's made it very clear that ballot isn't the final deciding factor of which characters get in and which ones don't.

Even if 50% of the votes went to Shrek, I'm sure Nintendo will just go "ugh, trolls" and move on to the next character.

If fools want to waste their ballot, let them. Nintendo hasn't been a prominent force in the gaming industry for 30+ years for them to fall for something as stupid as internet trolls.

Besides, Shrek already has his own Smash clone of a game anyway.

Very good. :3 Every clone in Smash is my obsession.
From best to worst in Smash4/5...
Mewtwo->Dark Pit->Lucina->Dr. Mario->Falco->Toon Link->Ganondorf
Except Mewtwo's not a clone.......I guess canonically, but not by Smash standards

Once Mewtwo gets released, he'll be my sole main. Right now, though, I juggle through the roster, and some of the characters I enjoy playing the most include:

-Fox
-Falco

-Greninja
-Pikachu
-Jigglypuff

-Captain Falcon

-Ganondorf

However, I despise/suck at Robin, Shulk, and Zelda. I have no idea why, I just do.

Mewtwo objectively has a better vertical game, and is probably going to have a poor approach. Platforms all the way IMO, tail & Confusion shenanigans.


In hindsight, FD is very polarizing, which is probably why Smashville has become the competitive stage of choice since Brawl. Not sure about 64/Melee but it wouldn't surprise me if Dream Land/FoD have similar reasonings.
I'd assume you'd do a lot of dodging and teleporting with Mewtwo on Omega stages. Hopefully he's faster in attacking out of dashes and teleports.. and heavier. If his A attacksare buffed, that woulf be helpful too.

:4ness:- When Smash Bros. Brawl came out, I thought this guy was me, so I mained him in all the games.
:4gaw:- this guy was never used by my friends because he was too "cartoony", so I played as him and killed everyone and now he is my main of mains.
:4sonic:- I love the Sonic series (as shown by my fan character).
:4mewtwo:- I was okay as him in Melee but not perfect, but after playing Project M, I became a monster as him.
:4duckhunt:- Finally I could annoy people online intentionally.
:4bowserjr:-The hammer from "Abandon Ship!" is my prime weapon.

We've only seen, what- five or six colors? There's still the possibility.
EDIT: :4greninja:'d.

Rushdown characters, by their very nature, have to get in range of Confusion and Disable. I can't imagine they'll be comfortable with that. ;)
Also, since you're new to the boards, let me fill you in: try not to double-post, or fear the moderators' wrath.

Are you talking about his jabs or smash attacks? If it's the former then they've been improved.
We don't know anything about the strength of his side-smash or down-smash but if the trailer was accurate, it looks like his up-smash got the raptor boost treatment.

I feel a need to be able to play with multiple characters. It just wouldn't be as fun for me to stick with a single main. Exploring with different characters is part of what makes Smash Smash for me. With that said:
Mains - :4greninja:
Until recently, I had four different mains in ninja, Yoshi, Doc and Zelda, but I realized that most of my time and energy was being put into Greninja, so I suppose he's my actual main. I joined Smashboards the day after he was revealed and I knew that I would fall in love with his mobility, shurikens, Substitute and WATER SWORDS! My favorite Pokemon and one of my 3 favorite video game characters,

Secondaries - :4yoshi::4zelda::4drmario::4mewtwo::4pikachu:
Yoshi's one of my other top 3 video game characters and I use him in every game he is playable in. I originally planned to dual-main him with Greninja, but things have changed a bit since last April. Zelda is the character I've used the most after Greninja in SSB4 and I did not expect to use her before I got the game. I became more interested in her after playing SSF2, then Brawl and I enjoy playing as her in Sm4sh even if she's low tier. Doc was my Melee main with Yoshi and I like his Sm4sh incarnation a lot even with the huge speed nerf. He's very different from Mario and I'm glad he's in. Mewtwo was my Melee submain and he is one of my favorite Pokemon. Considering Sm4sh Mewtwo is a buffed version of his Melee self, I have no doubts about secondarying him now. Pikachu was my SSB4 demo main and I grew to love his combos, Quick Attack and mobility. Also a top tier that nobody seems to use.

Submains/Pocket chars - :4bowser::4charizard::4ganondorf::4gaw::4littlemac::4sheik::4sonic:

Experimenting with/W.I.P. - :4falco::4fox::4palutena::4luigi::4miisword:

Here are my mains. I present to you, Team -ario

:4lucario:The anubis that will never die!

:4wario:The bike-throwing, people-chomping, fart-pooping Master of Mayhem

:4drmario:There's a doctor in the house, and you have a serious case of dead.

:4greninja: Lots of Greninja love here. He's my current main too, I love his slippery, tricky style and the stylish strings he can pull off. I am Team Chespin all the way ingame, but the Froakie family is really cool and the Ninja has served me well in Smash. Can't hold a candle to Mewtwo, though, so that'll be my primary character choice in a few days.

:4falcon: The good captain is my secondary. Used him casually in all games, but stepped it up to sink the time into learning him inside and out in this iteration.

:4charizard: I also use Zard a lot, but he can be challenging to use effectively. I have a lot of fun with him and think he's got some nice things going for him, but there are some unavoidable flaws.

I make it my business to be at least familiar with every character in the game, but honorable mentions for fun characters go to the other Pokemon, Duck Hunt, Little Mac, Pit, and Ike.

:4mewtwo: Mr. 150 is waiting... :4mewtwo:

I know how that feels, I haven't really played Smash 4 for months now because I have no desire to main anyone but Mewtwo anymore. I've been brushing up my Melee and Project M Mewtwo. I'd be happy if he was the last character added to the game, but if others want more, that's cool too. Just please no Shrek...

This is pretty much how I feel. Smash 4 doesn't feel fun right now because of my anticipation for Mewtwo.

I've always tried to settle on one character... but I just couldn't. Happens in every Smash game haha. I tried to use the character I've used the most since the 64 days, Pikachu. I've tried to use the character that's one of my favorite animals, Donkey Kong. I've tried to use the character that I used the most in my Brawl days, Lucario. I tried to use the giant dino-creatue that I always thought was so cool as a kid, Bowser. I tried to use the Pokemon that's a freaking dragon, Charizard.

Whenever I thought I had settled onto one character, I would always rotate back to another. I was very indecisive when it came to characters. And then there was Mewtwo. I remember playing him in Melee a lot and thought he was awesome when I was kid. He was my second favorite legendary, in fact. Mewtwo had been always my most wanted veteran, and when he appeared in the 50 Facts direct I was super excited to play him like I did in Melee (he was like top 5 characters in Melee for me back then).

I wasn't extremely excited until 3 weeks ago when I played Mewtwo with my friends again. This was like... ~12 days before the April 1st direct. It was weird... I dunno why I got so excited for Mewtwo after that day. I was always excited for him, but after that day my excitement went through the roof. I always owned Project M at my house and played Mewtwo a lot. I played Mewtwo in Melee like 2 weeks prior to that day. However, this was the first time I played Mewtwo with a group of people in Melee in nearly 7 years. This was the first time I played Mewtwo in PM with a group of people. He just... felt right when I played with my friends. That's when I realized that Mewtwo chose me (jk. but seriously though he just felt right). I played pretty much only Mewtwo the entire day with my friends. I didn't win much 'cause they were using top tiers (Fox, Marth). I then went to the Mewtwo forums and stayed there. I've never stayed at a character forum for so long before. A third of all my messages (about 120) have been solely in this thread. My likes on my posts literally doubled after I joined this thread. I got even more excited afterwards.

I've never felt so motivated to play and main one character before. I may or may not be just bandwagoning on the character, but I feel like it's more than that. It's kinda funny, because I wanted Lucina in the game more than I wanted Mewtwo, but I just feel so much more excited for Mewtwo. Especially after that one day. I always felt guilty about playing so many characters and not having a main, so I'm glad that I'm finally confident I'll be able to stick to one. I've never felt so confident I'll be able to settle down before. I haven't even played the character yet, haha.

i meant Meta knight.... META knight being completely unplayable. and jigglypuff i was never good with.
I beg to differ. While MK is nowhere near Brawl level. He's a decent to moderately good character. Here in Ohio, this MK named Katakiri is good.
Like, really good.
Like, scary good.
As in, two stocking you twice in a row kind of good.

Mewtwo is definitely testing us... but screw that! Who cares about willpower and strength?! I want him nowwww!!! :cry:

Also, Meta Knight is underrated. He's definitely very viable. I use him a decent amount. His recovery is insane. Tons of combos. Combing up airs into up-b to finish it off is so satisfying. Some of his flaws are pretty big ones though... range, damage, weight, etc.

Considering that Mewtwo likely spends his time isolated, he's probably bored out of his skull right now waiting for the 15th. Thinking about it further, he's also probably just as impatient as we are, as he's wanting to jump back into action.

I have been playing MK for quite a while, too and I gotta say that a character who has a kill combo out of a rather quick dash attack is a force to be reckoned with.

MK aside, It's just 10 days, people! I was extatic when i saw that mewtwo still got his melee moves.
Nair was always love for me and I am digging his new side B reflector. Fun times ahead!

No kidding. The wait will be worth it... we are finally almost there. I can't wait to wreck havoc and destroy everything. I'm sure Mewtwo is feeling the same... *insert Mewtwo villainous laugh here*

Mains:

My favorite Nintendo character. I will always use him no matter what tier he ends up in. Perhaps the only amiibo I will ever buy for Smash.

My first main all the way back to the first game. I just love his speed and his laser special is very fun to use.

I really don't know why I like him. His Fsmash is amazing and his black alt his very cool.

I can't believe how much he improved in this game. One of the most fun characters to use on 2 vs 2.

I'm going to be honest here. I only main him because the first game I ever played in my life was the 3 game pack on NES that had Mario Bros., Hunt Duck and that Olympics game. Amazing memories.

Another fun character to use on 2 vs 2. One of my favorite Pokemon out there.

My first starter in a Pokemon game. Just so many good memories to not main him too.

Honestly, I don't see any argument, I see discussion, but not argument.

If fools want to waste their ballot, let them. Nintendo hasn't been a prominent force in the gaming industry for 30+ years for them to fall for something as stupid as internet trolls.

Besides, Shrek already has his own Smash clone of a game anyway.
Then according to you, somebody telling somebody else to 'shut thine mouth' is 'discussion.'

No. That's just prompting for argument, 'discussion' or not.

The point is, this is the 2nd time now it's happened within 3 days of Mewtwo being announced when it really shouldn't be happening at all. We should all be happy and celebrating, not disagreeing over characters or the roster.

'If fools want to waste their ballot, let them. Nintendo hasn't been a prominent force in the gaming industry for 30+ years for them to fall for something as stupid as internet trolls.'

Yet, they say any fighter can come into Sm4sh? What would they seriously expect after saying that? Of course they're going to be flooded with internet stupidity and irrelevant votes. Geeze.

meh maybe meta knight just disapointed me. >w<
to add my 2 cents: the new fighter ballot characters HAVE to make some bit of sense in smash. for instance, don't expect sephiroth to be playable.
Looks like we've got a runner folks.
