As in, what kind of move (projectiles? spikes? multi-hitting moves? etc) and general characteristics (heavy, light, fast, small, etc)?
Personally, I love command grabs in traditional fighting games and I would like to say I find them necessary, except the command grabs in Smash don't feel as satisfying as in traditional fighting games, which makes them less exciting to use. When Ness' grab feels more satisfying to land than Bowser and Ganondorf's command grabs, you know something isn't right.
In Smash in specific, the more I play Meta Knight, the more I realize how important is for a character to have at least one projectile to me. The other characters I enjoy playing all have projectiles, so when I pick Meta Knight, he feels rather limited to me. Same goes to Sonic and Donkey Kong.
As for general characteristics, I like my characters being heavy and slow/medium speed; Heavy because I find it a positive characteristic in general, even if it means being easily comboed and slow/medium speed because it makes the character easy to control (I can't control Sonic and C. Falcon properly to save my life)... But at the same time, I enjoy playing the cute small characters and they are usually light and fast, so... whatever. lol
What about you?
