I'm not really looking for strategies per se (since I will be the Game and Watch) I just want to know what stage Fox will avoid. I assume final destination, since if by chance he does he grabbed there's the (really slow) chainthrow. Besides there.... mute? Stadium? Que?

Really? I usually have no trouble when playing against a Game & Watch, since there are few GW players in my area.

A Fox wouldn't mind whatever stage he plays on. One of GW's best stages is FD and eventhough he can CG Fox there, Fox can still spam him.

Yeah, Green Greens or Dreamland 64. They both have really high ceilings and he'll have more difficulty vertically KOing you there.

Final destination because Mr.Game and watch can chain throw fox and there r no platforms to disrupt it on that stage,Only way out of chain throwing is DI or if the opponent screw up

FoD tends to work well for GaW. The shifting platforms gives him a lot of options. That, and its a lot easier to sweetspot on this stage, because it has a really low bottom.

Oh, and I would avoid FD if possible. The ceiling is too low, and having a large open space actually benefits Fox more, regardless of the chaingrab.

i think i would avoid DL64 and DK64 as a fox player both because of the high ceilings.
and i would probably choos YS as a counter pick cause of the lowe bottom and low ceiling.

Mute city is a good place to take G&W since his up+B requires him to either land on the stage and opens himself to landing lag, or to miss the platform and die/take more dmg.

You crazy, fox usmash is stupid strong there...

I think DL64 is a good fox counter stage(having one of the highest ceilings)...

Mute City is a pretty good one also.

Never tried Brinstar(low ceiling, but theres acid), but you may have luck with it..

and if tournaments really allowed i'd also vote for flatzone...lol

I would seriously choose Dreamland for the high ceiling and FoD because the platforms on that stage can be awkward for Fox.

Battlefields ledges are really gay for G&W. If I play G&W I ALWAYS go to PS. You gotta avoid Onett, the stage where you fight G&W when you unlock him and mushroom kingdom 2. His annoying shine won't show mercy.
