skill breaks tier patterns? i don't think so. if you pick a character that's higher on the tier list than another that person will win almost 100% of the time. that's how tiers work

A snake user can lose to a ganondorf in brawl
(Sorry Boom lolol)
Isai is his own tier list in smash 64

Its not the tier list that matters, it is the matchups specifically.

no, just no :psycho:
tiers matter but mostly itl depends of the players and the matchups.

No it's all about tiers if u notice why Isai always wins he picks a better char... So obvious nobody has noticed for years

also if you link me to YouTube videos of Isai being a lower tier char than hhis opponent it's probably photoshoped. I've seen a lot of edited videos. Even crAzy **** like m2 in melee

Ally lost to a Ganon player not too long ago (side-B Ganon-cide for last stock on Frigate). Must be a bad match-up for Snake (lol jk :p)

ManaLord... I'll take a guess and say you are joking with your posts... but I agree with you. If a lower tier character beats a higher tier character, the only logical explanation was that the higher tier character let the lower tier character win.

You guys all fail for not knowing that he was being sarcastic in the first post.

I guess we do get some super noobs in here who say stuff like that though, so I can't totally blame yall

And finally, to show why Samus is not viable

Koro, the first two were photoshopped.
The first one as actually Isai as Captain Falcon against a Jigglypuff.
The second one is Isai as Fox against a Captain Falcon.
The third one, someone put Isai's name instead of the real Samus player's name.

Ok, but in seriousness, he was joking in his posts (and mine was a joke as well).

You didn't *not* say anything about melee or brawl.

Preeeetty sure Roll in MvC2 is bad.
I used Servbot in MVC2..lol

to Blue Yoshi. The best ganondorf in the United States said this in this thread:
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=202473

Sheik's Chain
"It can lock us, trap us, gimp us, what more? DTilt nor any other of Ganondorf's moves outranges it."
and
A sheik with a stock/damage advantage can pull out a chain under a platform and make it IMPOSSIBLE for Ganondorf to approach through it.
The best ganondorf in brawl basically is saying that if Sheik has a lead vs ganondorf and if the sheik knows the matchup basically, it is virtually impossible for ganondorf to win.

This is one of the few instances in any smash game of where a character is that bad that it is not even the player anymore.

I was being sarcastic in response to Nixxxon's "the caracter doesn't suck, the player does" post, going overboard with an obvious bad character.

And I know Ganon is just awful. SFU Tri-Smash 3, I had Koskinator in my pool (best ganon in the world at the time). I had never used Sheik before (other than a few random matches), but decided to use her just to try, and took his first stock without taking damage (f-tilt spam), took his second stock taking 20 damage (f-tilt spam), decided I cheated by counterpicking his Ganon with Sheik game 1, so threw the game (horribly spaced/timed bairs for the rest of the match). It was pools, so I didn't care. But yeah, had I not thrown the match, I would have beaten the best Ganon in the world with a character I had never used before.

Ganon is that bad.

i don't like looking at things black and white

most b-airs get eaten by ness's up-tilt

ness also isn't bad at camping himself

gimps for the most part are avoidable and are caused by players playing dumb, etc.

it's thus my opinion that he is a little underrated and that no character in 64 crappy enough to not be usable. Players can win with anybody in this game and overcome character disadvantages to win with skill/ proper strategy.


dittos are also a dumb example to prove a character's worth. a lot of character's dittos are gay fests but that doesn't really detract or add to a character's viability.

definitley not crappy enough to a non usable point, but no matter how pro a ness is he is always fighting an uphill battle, againts 6 of the characters.
and ness ditto's just highlight his flaws to the extent that it provides examples as to why ness is so low.

Link is a better character than Ness if you want uphill battles because he's more fun to play.
Thats about personal preference.

not really, sure in friendlies ness can achieve relative success

but once the other party decides they want to win ness is destroyed by gimps/camps/bair approaches
etc
I think that ness is kinda noob. I mean, he can do some nice stuff, but at the same time he does very bad and careless decisions, for example spamming PK thunder (against a fox) and DJC'ing into an obvious spike fail when off the edge

Yeah I agree, that Ness is horrid, he should just quit Smash all together and focus on helping me with antidifferentiation.
