What's your favorite way to lose?

[Cheezy23]

As the title asks, what is your favorite way to lose?

Personally, I can't help but be happy when a Ganoncide wins, regardless of what side of it I'm on.

 

[Zerp]

Wario Waft directly to the face is the only answer.

 

[MapleWooD]

Death by the fiery fist of the mysterious racer aka Falcon Pawnch

 

[LunarWingCloud]

I always find myself perfectly okay with a loss when I am doing something and they read my move (usually a roll) and hit me with a fully charged smash or something. I'm just left in amazement.

 

[Jonney]

When you Rest another jiggly only for them to re-spawn and Rest you back before you wake up.

 

[Admiral Pit]

To a good Palutena or "Regular" Pit, despite me still likely to get angry. It just shows that those 2 characters got potential, and I'm not the only one that's putting in work with them. It's strange, I know.

 

[TJ-Works]

Fighting down to the wire. As opposed to getting 2-stocked without getting a KO in.

 

[Saikyoshi]

When it's due to a clearly visible stupid mistake that I know how to avoid next time on my part. Most of my other losses just make my weaknesses too subtle to learn anything from, and they just make me feel inadequate.

 

[ChefKef]

The powerful Luigi Meteor taunt.

 

[Evello]

I love when my opponent and I are both at crazy high percentage, dive at each other, and let loose kill moves at the same time. It all comes down to who timed the attack better or spaced better. I don't even feel disappointed when I lose those matches; it's too exciting to matter.

 

[Deleted member 269706]

Taking a Falcon Punch to the face always leaves me laughing...with a broken face. Probably the most honorable way to go.

 

[Artryuu]

Diddy's throw to up air

...
Of course not . I don't mind losing to shulk dittos that managed to get a sweet backslash.

 

[Vic]

I like losing in close battles where my timing is just off and they punish me for it. Gotta commend their follow up in such a high stress environment.

 

[Vyledust]

I do not mind losing against someone equal skilled if all of our matches are about even.

 

[Tino]

I take my losses like a real man against someone in the same skill level as I am.

 

[ProjectAngel]

If I lose, it's going to be in a blaze of glory against an opponent of my skill level.

Everything else is unacceptable.

 

[PCHU]

If I lose to someone who genuinely outplayed me or if the match itself was enjoyable (Wario/Snake dittos in Brawl especially), I'm okay with it.
This series is (supposed to be) about having fun, even if you do play to win; any match that makes me laugh or smile is a good one in my book.

 

[Darklink401]

I actually find it hilarious getting KOd with uairs, when I hit the front of the screen.

 

[MarioMeteor]

I once played this Sonic (who wasn't good at all) that somehow got me down to my last stock. I was at a pretty high percent, so I went all or nothing like I do when I'm a stock down. I jumped after him and he Springed and I meteor punched at the same time. I spiked the everliving **** out of him. It was so amazing I didn't even bother trying to recover. I just let Mario gracefully flip his way down while my mind processed that glorious spike. If I could rewrite that scene however I wanted, I'd keep it exactly the same. I lost the fight, but I won because of that spike. I love losing in ways like that.

 

[Abyssal Lagiacrus]

I actually enjoy losing against players who actually play well, such as great reads, variation, skill, etc.

Against another skilled Falcon. I can't help but feel i learned something during the match.

Least favorite way? Not grabbing the ledge on Lyat cruise.. Even the omega stage, why the can't i ever latch on?!? It's my first strikeout every time i see it on the official stage list.

 

[FloatingMew]

Rosalina vs Rosalina at high percents at the last stocks. Luma shots at the same time and both fly past to hit the other Rosie...

 

[SphyreYui]

Dittos are fun win or lose to me, but also when you die in a crazy way is also fun like when a ganon side b a friend off the edge and i happened to be under that edge and when ganon went down he took my friend down and me with them.

 

[JayFresh]

When someone lands a good KO meteor on me at low %, both my fav kills, and fav way to die XD

 

[Mcmammoth]

Cheeky warlock punch to the face or falcon up-tilt to the top of the head when recovering

 

[MarioFireRed]

When I lose to a genuinely better player with the game coming pretty close. Doesn't happen very often since I don't take advantage of actually facing human opponents but when it happens I'm instantly saving a replay.

 

[Mr.Jamaul]

flare blitzing off the edge with charizard.

 

[2004Zilla]

Accidentally teleporting off the stage with Farore's Wind.

 

[SphericalCrusher]

Hmm, I love grueling long, close battles win or lose. Those are the most fun. More so than 2 stocking or getting 2 stocked. Outside of those, the Wario Waft comment was the best. :D

 

[Morbi]

I enjoy losing to a well-executed self-destruction. Sometimes, if I know my opponent will win the match or if my heart is not into the battle, I will purposely suicide so that they do not feel as though they earned the victory.

 

[Freezie KO]

When I get completely read and hit with a big smash or powerful move, I can't help but nod and admit I've been got.

 

[Starstealer]

I love it when I get beat so bad that it literally happens in moments after the start of the match. Like a beating so epic it's almost hilarious. It doesn't happen often because I consider myself a fairly competent player, but when it does I can't help but burst out laughing.

But then for round two, if they stick around I'm happy to give them a heck of a fight.

 

[Sean²]

Fighting to the bitter end. If it was a great match and I know I played well, Losing doesn't bother me.

 

[The 0ne]

Losing to a Kirby that knows my neutral special better than I do.

P.S. I'm a Kirby player as well.

 

[CosmicGlitch]

wiffing my god damn pk thunder, twice -.-
just gotta laugh it off and prove that im not that terrible in the next game

 

[Nixon Corral]

I like losing in such a way that I learn something. That's my goal. If I'm losing, I better have an idea of how to fix it next round. Or at least make the next round closer.

 

[Zavanthar The Brave]

I like losing when a match is pretty intense and I gave a good fight.

 

[B4ssick L3e]

JigsChing into Wario waft followed by Luigi taunt kick off the ledge, if this ever happens then I can die happy.

 

[Marakatu]

Being taunted while losing.
If you're gonna defeat me, the least you can do is look awesome while doing it.

 

[Sattoz]

I have to give props to my opponent when they manage to mind game me into getting hit by a PKT2.
