Playing KOF XIV
I see no MK because he's been nerfed hard they even went and nerfed his sword range which is disgusting. You can still play good with him but people seem to go with characters with easy learning curves instead of putting effort into slightly more harder to master characters.

Olimar is non existent at least i met 2 MK, i heard the pikman in 3DS run at 30fps but i'm not sure since i never touch him.

I see no Wario's and Duck Hunt becomes a background char guess people learn to counter his camp game so they drop him and switch to characters like Little Mac.

I'm afraid online will become less diverse as time goes by, especially once the first tier list where no one is crying "TOO EARLEH" pops up online.

They do. It's weird though, they run at 30 FPS during actual matches, but 60 FPS on the results screen. I know why they do that, but it's kind of weird to suddenly see the Pikmin moving fluidly and outlined.

This is exactly why I've been using :4lemmy::4diddy::4falco::4luigi::4mario::4pacman::4wiifit: more often online. I never see them.

I've only come across 1 of each of these characters: :4diddy::4luigi::4mario::4wiifit::4olimar::4wario:

I rarely ever see these characters: :4robinm::4shulk::4bowserjr::4falco::4pacman:

From playing around 300+ Matches on mostly For Glory,
I see a LOT of :4littlemac::4ganondorf::4falcon::4zss:
I see :4bowser::4kirby::4dedede::4peach::4zelda::4robinm::rosalina::4shulk:often
and i Hardly ever see :4jigglypuff::4villager::4gaw::4dk::4olimar::4sonic::4metaknight::4wario2:
the rest are just moderately frequent (except for mii)

I don't battle online much, but I spectate For Glory matches a lot when I need a break, and I have not seen any of these characters even once:
:4diddy: :4drmario: :4duckhunt: :4gaw: :4link: :4metaknight: :4palutena: :4wario: :4wiifit:

I see a lot of these:
:4falcon: :4ganondorf: :4greninja: :4littlemac: :4lucario: :rosalina: :4sonic:

I cannot recall a single "With Anyone" match against Pit, Olimar, Pikachu, or Falco (though I saw one in Spectate). Maybe some others too but I can't sort everyone out in my head right now.

And ironically, although I hear she's really popular in For Glory, I rarely face Rosalinas. That might be because I play as her most of the time though.

I don't think ive faced a Meta Knight yet. Ive faced like one Olimar. Rare to see Diddy and Zelda but of the few ive faced Zelda is really good.

Have almost never seen: :4diddy::4dk::4duckhunt::4myfriends::4luigi::4metaknight::4olimar::4peach::4rob::4villager::4pit: (always seems to be :4darkpit:)

Have seen a LOT of: :4falcon::4ganondorf::4mario:

Also seem to encounter a lot of :4robinm: in free-for-all matches for some reason.

Really? I see those characters all the time.. except for DH and Olimar.
Wow. Then again, I only do about 15 matches online a day, but that has only been for the past week.
Since launch until about a week ago, I played online quite a bit.
Maybe I just see the same characters usually.

OH! And I also rarely see :rosalina: which is weird.

Oh yeah.. I've probably seen one Rosalina this week.. weird. I guess people like to easy kills so they stick with the easiest characters to play.

As DK and Jigglypuff player, I hope you enjoy playing against me when the time comes.

Out of my 600+ matches I have seen a grand total of 3 Donkey Kong players. All though I've never seen any Wii Fit Trainers, Metaknights, Peach or Toon Dink.

Playing online, I've seen just about everyone in the cast at least once. However, I rarely see:

:4pikachu:, :4pit:, :4darkpit:, :4palutena:, :4luigi:, :4tlink:, :4gaw:, :4wiifit:, :4charizard:, :4duckhunt:, :4metaknight:, :4falco:

If I do see them, I don't think I've lost to them online yet. I know a good DHD player irl, and a good TL, and I play Pit myself, so there's that. >_>

I've never saw online (in for glory mode of course) : :4falco:,:4olimar:,:4metaknight:,:4zelda:, :4diddy:.
Having Falco here is weird, I thought he was more popular.

From what im gathering, all 4 of the characters i play the most seem to not exist for everyone else lol

:4wario: :4dk: :4lucario: :4dedede:

Dedede being the most common of the four by reading this thread, but still pretty rare. People tend to know at least something about him, but i can tell people dont know how to face a wario, dk, or lucario 90% of the time since they fall for the dumbest tricks in the book or totally mistime my attack with a dodge.

Fine by me lol :4dk: is fun as hell but hes not THAT powerful at all

I've played over 700 For Glory matches and I haven't seen a single Zard. :(
What are you talking about? You see a Zard every time you play. :p

Luigi, Olimar, and Samus are probably my least-seen opponents, though I've fought every character on the roster at least once.

I barely ever see : Zelda, Jigglypuff, Falco, ROB, Diddy Kong, Donkey Kong, Lucina, Luigi. I've played 238 online matches so I think its a fair statement to say that these guys are defiantly underused.

I clearly dont play with enough SmashBoards members, since I use a lot of Luigi, Alph, Wii Fit and Wario

Game and Watch is probably the character I've seen like a total of once. And I've never played another Meta Knight, this is across more than 2000 games.

Now that you mention it, GnW players are quite the rarity indeed.

I have been seeing this post for weeks and I have to say this: After 1000+ matches played, I have never seen an Olimar player. I have seen Meta Knights, Shulks, Sonics, DKs, Dededes, etc; but I have NEVER seen an Olimar player.
