Greetings all and Happy Holidays!
So I've played Smash since the original, and there was this one time I took the game a little more seriously in an effort to improve and play at a higher level. Not tournament worthy, but a level I could be proud of where I understood mechanics and advanced techniques, as well as when to apply them at a casual level, friendly match over weekends level. That was in Melee with Falco and Peach.
Up until recently I haven't been getting into Sm4sh, but I've suddenly had an urge to get into it after hearing a lot of positive aspects about when compared to Brawl, which was too slow for my taste and ultimately drained my interest in Smash over time.
I struggle with settling on a main to really dig into the game with. I've spent the better half of 2 months, a little bit everyday, watching vids, reading guides, trying out all the different characters, practicing techniques, and playing online matches by picking random, and I still can't settle on character I want to really hammer out (until Bayonetta, lol).
Things I tend to like to do when playing Sm4sh: SHFF'ing aerials, combos, being offensive, having multiple safe offensive options
I'm hoping perhaps more advanced fighters here would analyze characters in games I've played in the past and give me some suggestions
Super Smash Bros, Melee: Falco, Peach
Super Smash Bros, Brawl: Ike
Street Fighter IV: Juri, Akuma
Marvel vs Capcom 3: Dr. Doom, Trish, Spider-Man
