My main has always been :4peach: ever since Melee and she is one of my favorite Mario characters. Her playstyle is very fun full of elegance and grace, her special moves bring a sense of nostalgia from her vegetables to her floating ability to her frying pan from her game appearances. She is just fun to play as.

:4fox: has been one of my mains ever since his first appearance on the 64. Star Fox is one of my favorite Nintendo franchises that still deserves recognition. His playstyle is very fast and fun and I like him. In Melee he was my second main but in Brawl :wolf: was my second main and :4fox: was my third main. I'm still sad :wolf:didn't return but I'm hoping for him to return in the next game.

Basically :4peach: and :4fox: are my mains that I enjoy playing as because they are one of my favorite characters. I also play as other characters in this order from my mains to my secondary and the rest for fun.

:4lucario: is my third main because I like pokemon and he is one of my favorites too.
:4mewtwo:is one of my favorite pokemon and I'm glad he is back.
:4jigglypuff:she has always been one of my favorites since the beginning.
:4feroy: glad he is back and I love his new designs
:4bowser: is faster and better in this game.
:4yoshi: is cute and very fun to play as.
:rosalina:still getting the hang of her playstyle
:4roy:/:4ludwig: I switch between these two characters because they are my favorite koopalings in general.
:4falco: he may not be Wolf but he's still a good character that I like due to my love of Star Fox.
:4charizard: basically Bowser but with wings
:4zelda: I love using her magic but they could've made her better.
:4littlemac: is very strong on the ground but sucks in the air.
:4wiifitm: his playstyle is interesting.
:4bayonetta2: is one of my new favorite characters.

These are all the characters I play as because they are some of my favorite characters in general and I love some of their playstyles.

I'm a Kirby main. Have been since Melee.
I use Kirby because Kirby Super Star was the first video game I ever played, and because Kirby's moves just seem right to me.
I also main Jiggs. I only picked her up with Smash 4, but I have been really good at getting and rest and I feel like if I had to fight my self as Jiggs and Kirby, I would probably gimp myself with Jiggs.
I also like low tiers. TIER LIST AIN'T GOT NOTHIN' ON ME BOY! XD

I'm a zard fanboy. Loved him in the pokemon series though how he became my main is because I was using him back when I used pokemon trainer in the brawl days. To this day he's the only character where i've gotten more wins than losses in online play so I must be doing SOMETHING right. I also know his strengths and weaknesses well. I've tried some secondaries especially when I get bored but zard has always worked best for me.

I main Sheik. I picked her up in Melee after finding out that I hated Pika's changes post-64. I liked her for her speed and her quick playstyle. No character since has felt right to me. I wish she would have kept her chain attack/ledge grab for Smash 4, but that is a small scruple.

King Dedede, also known as the King of Bottom Tiers.
The Kirby series have been one of my favorite types of games, and King Dedede is my favorite of the bunch, so there was no exception that I would try him out.
Despite the countless tier lists and professionals reminding me that he is utter garbage in terms of characters. I still stayed true to my thoughts and picked him up.
I find the King a nice breath of fresh air compared to some of the more widespread characters.
His hammer covers a fair amount of distance, making him somewhat like the sword wielders, but he's much slower and bulkier, like an extreme Ike.
With him being a heavyweight, he can dish out a good amount of damage with great knockback while being able to tank twice as much.
His recovery is another access that I enjoy about him. Although he has horrendous air speed that can lead to massive punishes, his four jumps and huge recovery move with the addition of super armor gives him a safe enough recovery to make it back about 79% of the time.
He has great combos and his aerials aren't too shabby, like N-air, B-air, and U-air.
Gordo traps, D-Smash ledge traps, Shield breaks, all of that made him leave a special mark to me.

tl;dr,
He's just a fun doofus who gives me a fun time playing smash. A heavyweight sword-like character that can be monstrous if play correctly.

I main Greninja, and I am more on the defensive side.
Space out with Shuriken, Fair, Shadow Sneak and Ftilt, and exploit any opening for a juicy combo.

I picked him for the extreme styling potential, zero-to-deaths, Substitute and Shadow Sneak shenanigans, Down Taunt combos, Hydro Pump gimps...

I main :4darkpit: because I like his playstyle a lot and he feels better than Marth (I'm not an edgy boy I swear)

Secondary :4charizard: because I grew up on Pokemon and he's my favourite heavy
