Currently I main Peach, but I'm considering branching out to use Olimar as my secondary. I have an idea for a certain (possibly completely new) play style for Olimar.
Anyone who's played Pikmin will know the merit of occasionally leaving 99 of your Pikmin behind to just take that one red Pikmin into battle. That's basically where I got the inspiration for my idea.
I tried it last night, and it worked fairly well. Just keeping a single Pikmin around wasn't exactly easy, but I still feel like my unpredictability gave me an edge. I relied pretty heavily on his tilts (obviously), to the point that when I finally did use the Pikmin in an attack it was surprising. Also, when I finally did go to use my Pikmin attack, I ALWAYS had the color I wanted.
Of course, the real downside here is his awful recovery. So far the only solution I have here is to not get hit. I would say that I'm pretty good, just shy of tournament level play and dedication. So was the friend who I played against last night.
My question is this: If I went up against tournament players with this, would they be gimping me left and right, to the point that this strategy didn't have a chance?
