I used to miss old Bair, Punch range, cargo combos, and UpB KO's, but now I can't imagine going back to Melee and losing all the great stuff he gained.

 

[3GOD]

I miss Crouch Cancel --> Jump Cancel Grab --> Cargo Uthrow --> Uair juggles.

 

[Leprechaun_Drunk]

helplessness after giant punch in brawl...sucks...

 

[Revven]

Mostly the UpB losing its KO power is what I dislike. Everything else I love, especially his infinite against the wall (dtilt FTW!)

 

[Leprechaun_Drunk]

forgot to mention the lag on up B (when not landed properly)

 

[WastingPenguins]

I was watching a Melee DK vid today and the guy used Up+B to get some extra hits in at the end of a combo. I was like "What an idiot he's going to have all that landing lag at the end of that and get punished horribly!"

...and then he just dropped to the ground right on his feet and kept going.

I miss everyone thinking he sucked...

LMFAO!

Sorry for the double post.

well, i may have found one positive thing to the horrible landing lag on up-b. if your opponent see's you using your spinning kong, they may assume your going to go through the immense lag, and thusly charge in to punish. however, when landed properly, you can come up with no lag at all, and they will run right into your dsmash, over b, or giant punch. this couldn't necessarily be done in melee, because the opponent knew you were going to land without lag and if they charged you, they would be punished instead.

I love that DK is far easier to control now. When I played Melee, the guy was slipping everywhere he tried to move. I couldn't really make any sudden turns when I needed to. He seems to have gained more traction now, and that's increased his maneuverability significantly.

 

[spades]

upB lag blows, and i clearly recall being incredibly upset when i couldn't uair combo/juggle combo. I told myself not to play dk anymore after that... but who can resist the dk? Seriously.

 

[Cardd]

dude, upb on the ground has virtually no lag. Go try it, right now.

 

[Dark_Meow1]

I like how his eyeballs stick out if you leave him alone for a while. Oh, and when you crouch over and over again, that's hilareous compared to melee.

 

[YoshiKongBarkley3000]

I like:

Armor Frames
Better Bair
faster moves
stage spiking
jab locking
head butt actually is worth something LOL
down b is usable LOL

I dislike:

Shorter punch range
up b does less knockback
recovery has lag when he falls

Overall I think he got a lot better from melee LOL except his final smash (why sakurai why LOL)

Non serious play meaning he sucks? Or just playing him randomly even if you dont main him?

 

[Nicktendo]

Dk can do fine in tounramnet

 

[Jmex]

Dk can do fine in tounramnet

Hell yea he can... Dk *****

 

[crifer]

sure! even in melee!

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Spinning Kong was better back in Melee. Still, not much has changed whenever I use Donkey Kong. I still try to take advantage of his grabs and his Giant Punch is still one of the best special moves out there.

Uh, doesn't he have the sixth most tournament wins so far? That speaks for itself compared to the Melee DK.

 

[Veggi]

DK is alot better in Brawl. Looking back now I can't understand how I lived without SA frames. Plus side b to giant punch is just hilarious.

 

[6futs]

Def mindgames to headbutt->fsmash/punch is the awesome. I want to shoot myself every time I accidentally fair though.
