edit: i made a table of contents to help its unorganized-ness
here we gooo
2. about dk (and random peach stuff)
david-honestly i think dk does better vs fox and marth than peach does at a high level (david)
me-so do i :S
me-i think dk does better against fox at any lvl tbh
david-the flipside is that peach does better vs puff although i think she still loses), falcon (although i think she still loses), falco, ic, and sheik (although she still loses)
-i also think she does better vs ganon
-i think peach > ganon very slightly
me- i think its about maybe 75-25 or 80-20 for marth in marth vs peach
david- yeah thats about what i have
david-peach/character
_____75/25 fox
_____75/25 marth
_____sheik -
_____falco 45/55
_____falcon 45/55
sheik is supposed to be empty because we're undecided. david thinks sheik ***** peach harder then she does marth.
david- and i have marth/sheik as 65/35 in sheik's favour
david-but i don't think sheik 70/30s dk i think it's 65/35
3. random facts
me- whats the best type of grab? boost grab/jc grab/sheild grab/ dash grab
david- boost grab is only good with sheik, in wich case its amazing
david- jc grab is good for everyone but peach
david- dash grab is only good for peach and sheik and some other chars during cgs
(chris- imo there really arent many who should dash grab)
david- best one is probably jc grab overall
4. Mid tier discussion
david- dk, ganon, ic . thats my order i think.
me- i dont think ic are very good at all to be honest -_-, gimp one and the other is low tier. single ic is just horid, and with most characters dsmash ***** them in terms of seperating
david- i think theyre very over rated.
david- dk, ganon, ic, then doc with samus luigi mario link
me- i think link> samus
david- i was actually thinking that, i unno. Link is pretty terrible.
david- I think samus is higher than luigi and mario and link. Honestly just because of her even matchups with space animals. Like, for that reason ALONE.
david- She's awful against sheik, and she has the least chance against marth out of all of them (mario, link, luigi, samus being all of them)
david- but shes actually probably more terrible just because she does fine vs fox and falco.
david- so we have ic > doc> samus> link/luigi/mario, i dont know the order of the last 3. in terms of how bad they are its pretty even. So what ever.
-insert discussion about those 3-
ended up as link > luigi>mario. reasoning is scattered and really not too factually discussed. plus who cares, theyre all pretty evenly horrible.
5. Low tier discussion/b]
me- so should we put mario at top of low tier?
david- no, i think not, he's better than most of the lows by a considerable marging, and hes only slightly worse than luigi/link.
-screw the rest of the discussion, srsly. its low tier. nothing important after that anyways.-
6. more random facts
6.1 platform canceled turnips
me- platform cancel turnips is crucial to peach
david- honestly i think it sounds good retreating off platofrms
me-it makes peach more mobile, and helps her approach
david-approach sounds awkward but it gives you a turnip when you retreat with it so you can approach better after
david- so maybe that's what you meant
me- yeah
david- it lags her still a bit
david- but she can do it moving which is good
me- it leaves peach so vulnerable when u have to just stand there
david- indeed ,that's why i'm trying to play her w/o turnips sometimes in practice
david- but vs the top tiers it's impossible you need the veggies
6.2 dk vs jiggs (and other dk crap i think)
me- dk is really good, or a lot better then hes made out to be. Like we've talked about, his bair is broke, he has a good grab game, hes strong, and he ***** ff'ers.
david- i think dk vs ffers is bad for dk but i think people exaggerate on how horrible it is for dk, and yeah his bair is ridiculous
david- (if) dks better than ganon its cuz he has massive grab range and gay grab game. and his bair is like super spammable.
me- yeah and its hitbox and priority are insane too.
david- people used to say dk sucks against mid tiers but its really just jiggs.
david- puff you cant cargo u-throw combo much, she can bair your sheild, and jump with rest because his sheild is so bad.
david- dair ***** his sheild like no other and can like link to grab. if dk cc's and does everything properly he can cc d-tilt at best.
me- i think he might be able to get a grab in too, and c stick roll away( CSTICK ROLL IS WIN. ITS MUCH BETTER THAN THE JOY STICK. IM SURE YOU KNOW THIS SO FREAKING DO IT.)
david- i guess, but he cant really punish. if the jiggs gets enough hits from the drill she can grab before he can i think. because he goes into this akward hitstun animation where he flips around.
david- but more puffs dont do that. just sliq and king
6.3 whats boost grab!?
a --> z/r/l
dask attack and press z really quickly.
its basically a jc grab where you would normally do y/x>z
but you replace y with a dash attack and press z/r/l
7. where im gonna put other stuff when i look through our conversation history.
