What character improves you the most?

[Ogopogo]

I was having a conversation with some friends, and the topic was: what character improves the player's game the most?

Characters that were named a lot were Marth (because his tipper mechanic teaches you spacing, and dashdancing is important for punishing bad spacing), Mario (because he's not hard to understand how to play) and Wario (idk why we agreed on this but it just feels right). Who do you think teaches you to be a better player the best?

I've always thought that playing fox helped me with tech skill in general.

Different characters improve some areas of ones game better than others; there's no single "best" character for learning. Different players are also going to learn different things from each character, depending on how they understand and approach them.

I think that perseverance and hard work are the best characters.

Thanks, Tinker.

You want to learn spacing? Play Marth.

You want to learn to punish every opening you can? Play Puff.

You want to learn to hit-confirm? Play Lucario.

You want to learn to edgeguard? Play Kirby.

You want to condition yourself to stop doing punishable stuff? Play Bowser, or spacies against anyone good at comboing them.

You want to break your hands develop mad techskill? Play Squirtle.

ZSS helps me improve the most. Her 3.5 iteration is very reliant on HARD reads. So playing her makes me think outside the box and mindgme my opponents into doing what I want them to do.

Olimar teaches you that tires are for scrubs.
