Stealth Burst or Gunner Missle?

[dbwithlemon]

I'm Torn. I can't decide between the two.
I'm using a small/wide Mii with
Grenade Launcher
????
Lunar Launch
Bomb Drop

Flame Pillar is out because despite being a fantastic move, I don't feel it adds anything that Grenade and Bomb don't already cover.

Gunner Missle has been my go to, it's great at tossing out a few missles and walling out your opponent especially when combined with Grenade and Bomb, but just adds to the lack of kill power as even the super missles don't have that much knockback.

Stealth burst however moves quickly and from what I've read, has pretty good knockback, though lacking in the overall utility that the missle provides.

Anyone have any compelling suggestions for one or the other?

I'd give Stealth Burst a shot (no pun intended).

You're going to want to keep at a distance when using it and use other projectiles you may have (grenade, bomb drop, Fair, etc) in order to create openings and space to use it. Holding down the special button will "charge" it of sorts as it moves forward (The amount of damage and knockback it does increases the longer you hold down the special button). A max charged blast will always do 15% damage (you'll know its charge is maxed out because the blast is bigger than normal), and has pretty strong knockback on higher percents, making it useful for trying to score a KO/make recovery difficult while the opponent is offstage.

If that doesn't work well, keep with the missiles.

I prefer missiles for 1v1 and stealth burst is likely to be good in teams. Super missile is a continuously moving hitbox and you can combo out of it, while stealth burst is more likely to leave you open, even though you can trap landings somewhat effectively.

I personally prefer Stealth Burst as I feels it complements Gunner the best as it gives him another trap to use on top of his Zoning game. And it can kill.

If you like just pooping out hitboxes, missile is good, but if you want something more deadly, go Burst. All the side b's is playstyle/matchup dependent really if you ask me.
