THANK YOU!No love for pit? That dude is a beast now.
So I played a "good" Sonic player and I can say your description cant be any farther from the truth. Also his spindash completely negates a fully charged water shuriken from greninja... -.-Before I begin, I'm going to list off characters I think are really really good, or at least pretty good. Then I'm going to label the stinkers. And then in a separate post, I'm going to share my (totally wrong) opinions on the Tier List according to me. Remember, I'm as wrong as all of you. So don't hate. Criticism is nice, though. Please. Challenge my views. AND GOSH, TELL ME HOW TO BEAT SONIC OMG I HATE HIM
BEST FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
My god, Sonic is impossible to kill in the right hands. I think personally that this guy is on top. That's my vote. Right now. I can kill Shiek. I can kill Greninja. I can kill Little Mac. But I can't kill Sonic. No matter how hard I try. Playing Sonic is like gambling. You're going to lose. The combos are next to impossible to avoid, Sonic's speed makes him incredibly hard to punish. There's a huge learning curve with Sonic but I think he is the best SSB4 has to offer in terms of sheer frustration.
Do I have to explain this? See Fox (Melee) and Fox (Brawl).
Shiek is Nimble, and quick. She is hard to punish, let alone even catch. Haven't played her much (yet), but she's good.
Bowser can shrug off hits. And punch and KO really fast. Surprise of this Meta, for sure.
I hate this thing. It's reach is annoying, and it has stupid attacks that annoy the crap out of me. Sure, I can kill it. But this thing is SSB4's Brawl Pikachu. All around good and annoying fast.
I'd consider Pac-Man towards the bottom of the Top Tiers, but his combo ability, raw speed and air game, and counter-play with the Hydrant and Key are very nice.
Also should be near the bottom of the Top Tier. Mario got a nice boost. Very solid, and now FINALLY I can get some Nintendo Action without getting pummeled.
Even with Little Mac's lack of Air Game, and lack of recovery, the raw speed and power of Little Mac is simply too good to ignore. Play to your strengths when fighting Little Mac, because you're going to lose in direct combat.
See Mario.
Spam ranged attacks from afar. Run when opponent reaches you. Has a nice reach. Did I mention spamming ranged attacks?
I know, these are first impressions. But MAN, the few times I used Pauletina, I rocked! Then again, every time I fought her, I took her down after a tedious dance of dodge rolling and Auto Reticle spam. Yay.
Marth is going to be second fiddle to the new Top Sword player: Lucina. My prediction. Watch it come to pass. She's faster than Marth. Sure, Marth might hit harder, but he's so much easier to punish now. Maybe it's just me. But Lucina seems better. She just does. Give her and Marth a shot. Tell me what you think.
WORST FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Not a terrible character. But so.. SLOW. His Forward Smash is great, sure. I guess his B moves are okay. But eh. He sucks. Let's admit it right now. This guy blows. He's just too slow. The main thing you want to do is stand far away and fire stuff at your opponent. But since he can't RUN FAST, he's not that superb. At least he hits kind of hard. Oh, and his Up-B makes him look so stupid. Where does he get his new Clown Car? I don't want to answer that, because this is a 10+ game...
See Gannondorf, Brawl. At least he's a BIT better though. Not really helping much. Probably the worst character. Again.
I like Ike. Sadly, Nintendo does not like him. He hits so hard. But he moves SO SLOW. He's okay. I guess.
From first to not so first. He's just not that great anymore. And also, Laggy Pikmin FTW
Eh, technically doesn't count. But let's face it, all of these Mii Folk suck. Bad recovery. Their main niche is in combat. So you'd better adapt a Little Mac mindset with these guys.
Just some thoughts. Probably wrong. I did JUST get the game.
I've only played some of these guys. I'm going to play all of them, write impressions on them all, and then form some sort of 'false' Tier List.
You didn't play a 'good' sonic player then.So I played a "good" Sonic player and I can say your description cant be any farther from the truth. Also his spindash completely negates a fully charged water shuriken from greninja... -.-
Lol I worded that weird idk why basically I got bopped by Sonic sooo much pressure and apparently his homing attack is a kill move now. But yeah I meant to agree with you but worded my message weird sorry for the confusion.You didn't play a 'good' sonic player then.
