Sure Sheik is your main, but who's your Low Tier?

We never even bring these out because we're so used to playing this broken character...

So who do you Low Tier? Is it someone who has some sort of a similar play style?

Personally I Low Tier me some Young Link, mainly because he's so fun to play, just like Sheik. Plus he counters Peach.

Pikachu is pretty awesome, although I have a softspot for Mewtwo too. I'm not really a Sheik main though =P

I wish Mario was a lower tier... he's fun to play.

DUDE YLINK DOES NOT COUNTER PEACH.

As far as Low Tier goes... DK for the old list, for the new... well... there's always mewtwo.

mewtwo's DJC feels slow + dumb, i cant stand him. i think pichu is better honestly.

the new tier list is really good though, ***** luigi, DK, and L1NK had no business in low tier tournies.

But now its Pika all dai. The fox of low tier. I think we're going to see alot of Young Link now that Link is gone.

edit:

Soap: Link is top of low tier. I forgot. I guess more Roys? Lol Roy dittos are too fun.

according to the Peach+Y Link boards...Young Link counters Peach. It's her worst matchup, its not like a hard counter or anything.
Are you going to sit there and tell me that Young Link is worse for Peach than:

Fox
Falco
Sheik
Falcon
Marth
possibly Ganon.

Young Link isn't her worst match-up by a long-shot. Bad match-up and worst match-up are two different things.

all you gotta do with zelda is bair lolz

And Y. Link is not Peach's hardest matchup. At the point in which she can actually fight through his wall and punish him, he's easier than Marth.

Peach can't really do **** to a good marth that spaces.

Falcon/Sheik/Falco are even matchups, Fox has an advantage depending on how gay he wants to be, Marth beats her, she beats Ganon by camping and shield pressure.

Y. Link is just annoying. And no one good plays him anyway so it's a moot point.

I'd rather fight space animals and tiara boy than Ylink, but that might have more to do with matchup experience.

I also think Sheik is probably the best Peach counter

Imo Fox is hardest. What are you going to do if he refuses to approach and laser spams? Drillshine->usmash beats your CC and he's faster than you.

I just don't put myself in a position to be drillshined properly, after that his only option for a kill is either me ****ing up DI or a random upsmash/bair/nair but it's easy to read a fox trying to do this and bait a whiff

Just requires a lot of patience on my part, but I'm quite an avid fox hunter

you wd back and down smash his drills and ****
Alright.

Take out the dair part. Fox refuses to approach. You are forced to approach him to kill. His usmash trades with/beats everything you have. Usmash even trades with fair if timed properly.

hmm..

When I play Peach vs. a campy Fox it feels impossible.

Well then stop trading hits with upsmash =p

In this case, good prediction of future steps (especially when fox is waking up) and basically scaring the little **** is necessary to win

lmao you guys gotta see jman play peach to see how easy he makes it look lol. fox already has combo obviously but the thing is he can run away the whole match and laser and there isn't much peach can do. on top of that, platform camping and peach and her slow jump is stuck.

pikachu is the god of low tier i mained himwhen i was a noob and semi picked him up a long my noob conversion.

I think I beat him at Chu's near the twilight of Melee. I guess I should play him again

I tend to think so. If you play her right, it's impossible to touch her, combos peach much better than marth ever could, and has nearly guaranteed kill combos in a large % window.
