:wario: :toonlink: :yoshi2: in order of appearance

:charizard: :lucas: :dedede: :falcon: :luigi2: :gw: :zelda: :link2: :marth: :jigglypuff: :wolf: mostly interchangeable
It seems that if you main Ness, you're also more connected with using character like Wario, Toon Link or Yoshi. I'm beginning to find that a little interesting.

I used to main Olimar (because of the novelty), then Game&Watch, but somewhere I read that G&W, Ness, and Wario rely on their air games and decided to try the other 2. I couldn't handle Wario's fastfalling and general strangeness, but I loved Ness' floatiness and bair.
Yeah.

Whatis more satisfying than landing a reverse falcon punch or knee, dair as link, or pkt2 and bat as ness? Very little.
Are you serious? When landing a PKT2 as Ness, I mistake that for a brief orgasm.

Same with the knee.

I started off using Ike, because I recently beat Fire Emblem Path of Radience and he was definantly one of my most anticipated characters. I planned on secondarying Ness this time around, but had lots of fun with him and ended up maining him. I picked up Snake after many tournament experinces to help step up my game and help out Ness.

Ness-Main, I use him 75-100% in a tourney/MM
Snake- I use him like 30% of the time, ive been trainign with him recently, if I know my oppoennt uses a charcter I have trouble against i use him first, if i still lose I switch to Ness for the CP, and then ussually go Ness again at the last match(and win? xD)
Ike-I havent used him in tourney since June, but I still play him seriously. I may mess around with him a bit more, im not sure yet.

As of now, i belive I have a winning team. I simply need to get better with all my characters , mainly Snake and Ness (Ness is still my best buts thats not enough as of now.) Snake covers a lot of Ness' bad match ups and switching to Ness on the CP works well, since poeple think im going to stay Snake. if they know im going to switch Ness, I can just stay Snake unless I belive its hopeless, then I always have at least 2 good cps for Ness so if they ban one I ussually have another. Im also thinking of trying Ike as a surprise CP character....i dont know yet.

In conclusion, Id reccomend secondarying a good high tier who covers your abd match ups (someone like Olimar, G&W, D3, Marth, Snake, Meta, Falco,etc.) and a solid mid tier could be helpful too (Ike, Kirby, Peach,)

If you find yourself having A LOT of trouble vs one character, pick up a character who hard counters him. Example, pick up Marth to deal with other Nesses (lol) , pick up Peach if you just cant beat Oli, or pick up Pika if your losing to Fox.

:ness2: Main
:falcon: Secondary

Everyone else.

For fun one day I played the roster from top tier down and the only higher tiered character that didn't feel totally awkward was olimar.

Ever since the beginning of brawl I've been good with olimar, idk why but I HATE playing with him. But whenever I chose random and played with him I'd play pretty decent for someone who never tried him on my own.

Ness is still my main, but now that I've been picking up DK hes definitely my secondary for now.

they seem to have comparable weights and air control, so it's not too hard to transition from ness to one of em

:olimar: Leader
:ness2: Magic-based Knight
:kirby2: Air King
:pit: Cupid Knight
:diddy: Attacker
:rob: Defender
:falcon: Fisted Fighter
:popo: Hammer Duo

That should about cover it.

Hehe, Olimar is the leader of the brigade. I think Ness is a bit lonely though since he's the only spellcaster.
I don't think he has to worry too much about that. Olimar is very smart but relies more on the Pikmin than himself. And ROB could be a technician (how extreme his A moves can be), so he too could qualify. Then there's Kirby, who has his trademark Copy ability, so he could qualify as a part-time spellcaster too. So Ness wouldn't be the only "magician." He just provides a good deal of the magic is all.
