Gears is one of my weaker games. I mostly stick to the back and snipe out the runts while my friends handle the main monsters when we play online. I usually get owned when I try to run into the middle of the gunfight. I'm not very good with the whole cover system just yet.

lol. Can DK UpB through nannerz? Just a question since Diddy is one of my weaker match-ups since I have played very few worthwhile Diddy's.

Yeah I don't think you can up-b through the bananas. :(

The dash attack can pick them up though. (but DK's dash attack is pretty laggy :/ )

I main Diddy for tournaments, but we run a league at the Play N Trade near me and I'm using DK and Ice Climbers. I'm decent with Diddy, but my friend is amazing with Diddy, and usually beats me with any character I use. I found that my DK stands up pretty well against his Diddy. I think it's a matter of spacing and knowing how to maneuver to gain control over at least one of the bananas. Keep in mind that you can air doge a banana to grab it, whether it be thrown at you or already on the ground. I also rely on spot dodges a lot to avoid his throws. And battlefield is great against Diddy because his bananas are harder to keep on the bottom level. DK is also great at grabbing bananas off the platforms with his nair.

Which isn't wise to do to begin with. Whenever I play a Diddy Kong with my DK I try to just pick them up regularly (not doing any attack or whatever). Z-grabbing them if they were thrown at you while in the air is good too, even an Air Dodge to catch one might be a good option, Nair as well. IMO, DK needs a bunch of Ftilting, prediction, Down B, Dtilt, and Utilt to do any huge damage to Diddy Kong. Bair is also pretty good...

BUT! Anyway, I main Diddy Kong and haven't had this match-up myself (I'm usually DK fighting a Diddy, never the other way around because everyone I play doesn't play DK). So, I don't have much experience on the other side of things. All I can say for Diddy would be to abuse the bananas and never let DK get'em, because once he does, DK ***** pretty hard with them (I know, because whenever I get a banana with my DK, it just ruins Diddy pretty badly). Of course, this is true for every character... so, my advice is kinda moot anyway.

well DK's down b will be a useful weapon against diddy because what diddy's like to do (or at least what i like to do when i play diddy) is throw a nanner and then follow with a dash attack to re-grab the nana

down b eats dash attacks

also you can kill diddy ~80%
