I feel many of these questions were difficult to answer in black and white. I don't predict character choice having a direct correlation with the results it'd be an interesting to see anyway.

Some things to mention:

1) Most MBTI tests online are not very accurate. The ones that are take a lot longer to complete, are much more complex, and cost money.

2) The 4 letters type you get depends much more on what cognitive functions you most naturally use than if you tested 2% higher on sensing than intuition. Here's some information about the cognitive functions: http://personalityjunkie.com/myers-briggs-functions-inferior-function/

3) Thinking and Feeling is more about values than how logical or emotional someone is(logic and emotion aren't necessarily opposites anyway.) For example, I am an F type but I don't think that most people that know me would call me outwardly emotional, except maybe a few Falco playing video uploaders.

Basically what GMhyprid said. Your results may not be super accurate. Just a heads up.

I am fairly sure i'm INFP and my character is Marth, hands down. Maybe you could ask us why exactly we find this character out best fit?

Thinking about it, my reason for chosing Fox seems to correlate pretty good with my MBTI type. I picked Fox when I began playing competitively because I wanted a very technical character so that I could easily switch to a less technical character if I would end up not liking him. Sounds like a choice of a perciever to me.
Another reason I picked Fox was because I wanted to stay clear from bad matchups, but I don't know if that's connected to one or a combination of jungian functions.

I was pretty into MBTI before and I recommend you not to take it too seriously. I think it's a fun way to categorize people and what type you get can often say something about you as a person, but the human personality is probably far more advanced than 4 functions + extraversion/introversion.

if I remember correctly, I'm INTJ. I'm a falco main.

Like most have already said, this is more telling of the demographic.

1. ISTP (introverted, logical, action/speed-oriented)
2. Fox
Seems about right. This part in particular hits it right on the head: "ISTPs have a lot of natural ability which makes them good at many different kinds of things. However, they are happiest when they are centered in action-oriented tasks which require detailed logical analysis and technical skill. They take pride in their ability to take the next correct step."
