Well Brawl has been out for just a little over a year now and most people and I just wanted to know about how everyone feels about Personal Bad Matchups.

My personal bad matchups have to be Snake and Kirby. No matter what I do or who I pick I really have a problem beating them. I've tried character counterpick on them but it really doesn't help the situation:ohwell:

what I really wanted to know was the peoples voice on who they trouble with.(good or bad)

Obviously a lot of people are going to say Meta Knight so im asking everyone to steer away from Meata Knight matchup. But I do want MK players to voice their opinion:)

Also I want to hears peoples views on Ditto matches.

Somehow, my Zelda always gets ***** by Kirby, even sometimes the noobish spammy ones...

Mine is Olimar and his pikmin. <_<
QFT

Actually, anymore, I've gotten so much Olimar experience anymore that I'm numb to the annoyance of his pikmin. Marth, on the other hand... :dizzy: Trying to get through her his range when she he is spaced well and always getting punished OoS makes me a sad monkey 3:

I used to have trouble with Ike--knocked me out of my first tournament, in fact--but after I started playing him myself a little bit I began to notice the places where you can get an opening. I still use him from time to time, if my opponent is slaughtering my mains... I've discovered he's the most legit counterpick EVAR x3 (inside joke)

My personal hardest matchup is anyone that's better than I am.

I can't play against Lucas. I always lose. It's gotten a bit better now that I've picked up Marth, but still...

I also despise WiFi Wolfs. Actually, I have a bad matchup with WiFi in general, lol.

Also: Aggressive Sonic.

OH my lord, yes. It's so jacked up because you never know what he's gonna do. Olimar doesn't do jack squat and all those pikmin make a ****ing hurricane around him and there's just... no way...

Plus they fly so slowly and yet knock you into next tuesday when they hit you. Yeah, that makes sense. -.-

I have a seemingly unwinnable match against Luigi, no matter who I use or where I play. I just can't seem to get around him. I even tried playing some Luigi to better understand how his attacks work, but I've still got nothing there.

I use to have problems with Ike, but I played around with him for a day, and now I don't have any problems.

I use to also have a problem with Kirby, but then I found out that G&W's bair>Kirby's bair.

I'm horrible against Lucas. I lose way too often.

I always have problems against Olimar when I use Peach. It should be an easy matchup, but it's hard for me for some reason. Maybe because of wifi. I have to switch to DK for that matchup even though it makes no sense to.

D3. Granted, thats already a bad match-up for Ike, but I can't help but jump into his grabs. >_>

Same idea with Falco. I managed to loose against a Falco.....at Pirate Ship......after gaining a 2 stock lead over him.....ya it's bad.

Diddy is an odd one. Most of the time I do a lot better then I should against Diddys (45-55 suddenly seems like 55-45), but there is this one guy who uses Diddy and keeps Bthrowing -> Dair spiking me, and I can't avoid it. In the 4 or so matches we played, most of my deaths came from that, and I only landed an aethercide once when dying that way. So I guess it's playing style depended on that one.

Let's see...

Lucario: I have like no match-up experience with him, so I faced one once, and couldn't win a single match... I'm going to have to learn this match-up soon <.<

Link: Yes, for some reason, Link gives me a lot of trouble <.< Idk why exactly =/

Peach: Dair eats up almost every one of Oli's attacks, as well as many of my other characters' attacks... It's like I can't approach her, and I can barely camp her. At least my R.O.B. is decent against her.

R.O.B.: ... I... HATE... THIS... STUPID... ROBOT! I have had so much match-up experience against him, and yet I can barely do anything against him. That laser stops all of my Pikmin being thrown so I have to re-pluck/start throwing them again, that Gyro is nearly impossible to pick up, I try to approach, I usually end up gimped, and if I try to get to close, I get his Dsmash, and that Dsmash's hitbox comes out on Frame 4 T_T I could probably own a R.O.B. with no Oli match-up experience, but that's about it. At least there's that ZSS infinite right? Yeah, if you could even get close enough to him =/ I tried picking up G&W too, and that failed miserably. R.O.B. is the anti-ZERO. R.O.B. Vs. ZERO is a 100:0 R.O.B. favor T_T

Definately Olimar. ALL his moves are powerful, quick and long ranged. I cannot get around him, no matter what I do. If I gaurd his fsmash, I get grabbed. If I spotdodge his grab, I get fsmashed or dsmashed. He's just impossible! His pikmin block projectiles too so I can't approach...... Approaching Olimar is pointless anyway, you'll just get fsmashed. :dizzy:

Can't forget to mention that Olimar's metagame is spamming smashes and grabs. Really gets on my nerves. I never want to face a pro Olimar.....

I agree completely I hate a good Olimar. I also dont like a good Luigi. Good Snakes are my pet peeve they drive me nuts, the grenade countering, the tilts and the stupid snake dashing. All his traps confuse me and i often underestimate how long the trip mines (d-smash) last. Over all i just hate snake.:(

Ganondorf, what the hell.
I always think "ha ha, ganondorf, s'gonna be easy," and then HOO HEE HAH all my stocks are gone. Every time. It doesn't matter who I use or where we are. I've gotten 2stocked on Rainbow Cruise using God**** METAKNIGHT. It doesn't make sense. I know his weaknesses and how to exploit them, but I can't. I just get *****.

I'm scared of Ganon players now.
