Lucario annoys the hell outta me, Snake is just incredibly good, I can't beat Peach with my main AT ALL, Olimar is the one match-up that forced me to learn Sheik, and G&W is just ****ing ridiculous.

I was making a joke on how I personally fall prey to pivot grabs and being conditioned, regardless of what character I play against, mainly due to the fact I dont have a specific character I have issues with.


Hence my previous post.

Great topic, I'm pretty sure everyone has Personal Bad Matchups. Mines is Snake, Mr. Game & Watch, Marth, and Ditto match's. Yes, I hate facing my foe with the same character that I am using. >.>

Wolf, I just can't beat his stupid approaches. And that laser. ugh.

I just can't get past it. I have problems with Falco too, it's just not nearly as frustrating.

Diddy.

I just can't stay away from those bananas. :mad:

Playing a character with a hella long banana trip animation doesn't help.

I used to have a problem with Diddys, until I learned they usually work in a pattern. It's just glide toss, cartwheel, glide toss, cartwheel, glide toss cartwheel. With some smashes mixed in after a slip for the kill.

I have a HUGE problem with Olimar and ZSS. Pits, Wolfs, G&Ws, and Marths annoy me, but Olimar and ZSS are a pain in the ***.

I mainly play with my Lucario, so I can't get into detail with my other 12 characters. For Lucario, the biggest enemy to me is Ice-Climbers (I can't space right and get infinitely grabbed/koed), with Wolf.... and that's it... following behind.

For me it's Luigi and Lucas.
They both seem to always stop my approach by spaming projectiles, then following up by spaming their quick aerials, making close combat a headache.

Anyone that spams things and/or has huge disjoints which outprioritize Pound.


Other than that, I'm fine. Still learning, though.

Falco.

Not only does he counter my main, but his playstyle nullifies mine, too.

I don't have any bad matchups.

If there's a matchup I don't like, I can run away lol.

G&W: the turtle demands blood.
Ice Climbers: ACK. So much grabbing.
Link: up throw into bomb is... humiliating.
Pit: so freakin' annoying.
Toon Link: see Link.

Olimars a pain in the hinecore to deal with. Crazy range with smash attacks, can camp all day flicking that silly wittle yellow joystick. How do I combat something like that.

*also how do people feel about playing dittos against their mains lol?
Pika dittos are fun as long as you don't do too many of them. They can be really, really boring if one or both people are playing slowly and/or camping, but if there's a lot of QAC, thunder, and combo shenanigans going on, they're actually pretty amusing. He can pull off a lot of crazy shiz.

Zelda dittos are just a lot of magic and sparkles.... I don't particularly like them.

Snake and Yoshi dittos are fun.

Marth dittos..... :urg: No thank you.

My worst match-up has always been against a good Link, especially a hookshot happy Link.
Toon Link and Young Link were easy match-ups for me, but I get screwed when I play Link the majority of the time.
If he didn't have that shied then it'd be easier, because I could just go to town with Falco, but his shield laughs at the feebleness of my SHDL spam XD.
