Big, spooky castle in eastern europe.
I haven't seen a topic about this before and y'know, I just love filling up niches, so here goes.

What characters do you think are going to make effective teams for 2v2 matches? Effective in the sense that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

For example, I could see Sonic and Bowser being a good combination. Bowser, being the slow, powerful guy, is the one most likely to get attacked by oppoents right off the bat. A fast character like Sonic (Or Fox or MK) could get around the enemy real quick and nail them while they're nailing Bowser.

Discuss.

Hiding in that one place you cant see.
Maybe the partners from SSE could work.
Peach & Kirby
Mario & PIT
Yoshi & Link
DK & Diddy
I know they seem like weird combinations, but I dont think the game would just throw random people together. Or maybe they did....

It doesn't seem radom to me other then of DK and Diddy the rest (other then Pit and Mario) have the same basic color.

Peach & Kirby
Yoshi & Link

Team matches is where Ike will shine, based on what we know of him. His slow speed and attacks aren't that big of a deal with a good ally, such as say Pit or Meta Knight, to set foes up for him, and he can KO enemies at such a low percentage that once they're set up by his partner, they're dead. He just needs a fast ally with good comboing potential to rack up damage until 60% or so, then get them close enough for him to do a fsmash or usmash. Or just distract them so he can get in some of his quicker attacks.

Peach's Final Smash will also do wonders with him in team matches (helpless enemies vs insane powerhouse attacks). Perhaps Yoshi would do well with turning foes into eggs to give Ike a chance to swing, or the ice climbers freezing foes.

For some reason I get the feeling that Kirby and Dedede would be a good team, if he's as maneuverable in the air as the screenshots, and the original game, would imply. The two of them could outfight opponents with a combination of quick and strong.

I think 2 MK's could own just about anyone. Imagine trying to escape from the center of a swordspam vortex...mwahahahahahaha.

Hmm... a Mario and Sonic team would be interesting, to say the least. And since apparently they're both good characters, I'm sure it'd be a good team.

If Zelda still has her shiek transformation, her and PT would own as well. You'd just keep switching characters and nobody could adapt yo your playstyle.

The first thought that came to my mind was Ike and Pit. Pit for fast projectiles and combo hits, then Ike is the finisher with his powerful attacks.

I'd like to see Pit and Metaknight fight together as a team. Aside from the fact that they both use swords and can glide, Pit can go long range by using his bow and give out an opening for Metaknight to utilize his sword combos and beat the opposing team fast.

I think it would give an error, that would be like having Two Chuck Norris on the same team.


But seriously, I have to agree with Marth (if he is even close as broken as he is on Melee) and Ike. Excellent team with speedy combos and then power to finish them off.
