Ike is such a terrible character to play on wifi. I also can't stand playing olimar. He is the only character I know that can spam *********** and win.

I can actually beat both of them on Wifi. It's just ******** funny how hard it is to punish insanely slow stuff. Olimar is pretty good on wifi. I wouldn't say he can spam ***********, though. It's fairly hard to try camping (correctly) on wifi with Pikmin throw. One little slip up, and you're in quite a bit of ending lag, for wifi. His smashes aren't hard to deal with if you're not a bad character. His combo ability maintains the same attributes, though.

Ike is funny on wifi. Jab Jab Jab Jab Jab, Grab, throw, Fair, Bair. The only thing that ruins it is his stupid running speed. Once you block his jabs, jump OoS or run away, and camp the crap out of him until he tries to approach. I've even gotten fully charged CSes with Samus by camping Ikes severely.

Whoever agreed with me that IC's are the most hampered is smart. You guys don't realize it because you practically never come across IC's in Wifi. When you do it's someone who doesn't know how to play them or, even rarer, have someone who knows HOW to chaingrab. Even when they do know it's severely nerfed. Not only do you have to know the timing for 35 characters but everyone of them has different timings online for DIFFERENT connection ratings. That's just for input lag. The lag spikes is what hampers them even MORE. De-syncs get ruined because of that. Most people would vote on a character that just owns them online (i.e. Snake) but they don't look at the other side where you they can own a character thanks to wifi even if the other player is obviously more skilled.

I bet more than half the people in this side of the forum know what it's like to get 0>death grabbed by IC's,

Nah he doesn't need that. It's wifi, you aren't supposed to play properly to win.

Of course. Throwing out random Fsmashes also works wonders. Especially with more than 2 players.
Easy winner; lagwolf.

1. Spam Dsmash
2. ????
3. WIN
LMFAO, I remember saying this a while back. Dat Dsmash. Makin' me poop my pants with selfish wants of something to punish.

Until you get knocked offstage, that is.
It's funny how the heat of the match can be switched so quickly.

Wolf's recovery is awful online.

As for Ike, as I said, you have to learn how to use him. I.E Jacklock and bairs.
