I'm finding my most used characters to be Mario, Jigglypuff, Rosalina, and Roy. Roy is definitely a close-combat specialist. Mario is a Jack of All Stats obviously. Jigglypuff would best be classified as a "Fragile Cannon." Rosalina really doesn't fall under a category. "Fragile All-Range Glass Wall?"

I'm fine with any style though if I had to pick, then it would be Long Range Fighters since they tend to be the characters I stick to the longest.

(Some )Puppet Master?

A Puppet Master doesn't really have any defining statistics besides having a puppet. Besides, I like to think of Luma not as a puppet, but as an extension of Rosalina, because Rosalina by herself isn't completely defenseless.

I like something between stone wall and jack of all trades. I think Charizard fits that pretty well.

I would say Jack of all stats for me since Pit is usually referred as a Jack of all trades type of character, and Shulk is pretty flexible due the stat changing abilities of his Monado Arts.
The only character I'm really unsure of is Palutena, I'm not sure where she fits on this list... maybe Stone Wall? Not sure...

You might like Sonic then. He feels like Mario with really fast running speed IMO.

I really like the Jack of all stats, like my mains Luigi and Olimar. I like being able to change my playstyle depending on the situation.

I usually just pick whatever character interests me, but if I had to pick a type, it would be close-range combatant. Though, I am curious. My three top characters to play as are , , and . I know is a Jack of all Stats character, but what would be? I can see him being either Glass Cannon, Fragile Speedster, or Close-Range Combatant. Same question with . He is the fastest character in the game, but isn't fragile.
Also, what characters can be considered a "Stone Wall"? The heavy weights do not seem to have a problem killing or racking up damage at all.
