List any characters that does really well or really bad on this stage, to alert you of which stages to ban or counterpick. An explanation would also be nice.

Reserved for blah,sorry for all the delay=(.

 

[Mr. Fire]

I think Ganon is very bad on PS1, be cause GW can camp better than Ganon.
He is to slow.

 

[PentaSalia]

Ganon is bad everywhere lmao


but this isn't really the best stage for G&W simply because other characters are better on it.
I strongly suggest striking this out if it's in your neutrals list. Snake,oli, diddy, and ZSS do preettty well here because of the small blastzones and some of the formations. I'll add more later :o

I don't know why, but this is probably my favourite stage against Snake.

Why am I wrong? :S

Apart from Fire formation I think this stage is good against Snake (I camp on the rock one and that can work out well). The Grass is awesome for GaW if he gets Snake in the air, and the Waterfall is really just better for whoever is higher percent, and if Snake camps from in there and you cant approach it's safe to just sit on the water platform.

And for the main stage the platforms are spaced well to Bair Snake, especially if they ever roll to drop the grenades lol. I also like to plank here xP

Why else is it bad? Just against Snake I mean. I know the roof is kinda low but ???

 

[Mr.Jake and Skate]

I don't go here for some reason alot i think i should though it's a good stage not his best though.

8/10 for me.. I actually like this stage alot. I get GW's up B stuck under occasionally, but I love using the random stages as tactics.

Summary
I actually really like this stage. The lip is always a problem but we should remember that GaW's recovery is significantly better than a lot of the casts' so they will be hurting more than you most of the time. Just aim high when recovering since GaW's Up-B offers incredible distance anyway and air dodge onto a platform or D-Air to land. As I've mentioned the lip is pretty ******** but that means a lot of the time characters will be very cautious when they're recovering. So edge-guarding with D-Tilt (it has freaking incredible range) becomes even better here. If it doesn't work then chances are opponents will get caught under the lip. You can also use chef if you really want to, to be honest.

There isn't that much room around the stage but it is pretty big so I would take campy characters here. The original stage is neutral (the two platforms) but GaW can really take advantage of that. He can just jump all over the place and camp. Seriously its ridiculous. In my opinion it works in a similar fashion to Rainbow Cruise except not as good obviously.

Character
I'm actually comfortable fighting pretty much every character on this stage with the exception of Snake for obvious reasons (he can plant his C4's everywhere and you may not notice because of the stage changes and the blast lines are close). Marth can also be a problem, just because he's Marth and his aerials are so gay. But keep in mind both can still be gimped with edge-guarded D-Tilt, although it really does depend on how comfortable your opponent is.

Everyone else is basically fine.
