Oh yeah, doesn't her dair lack a sweetspot too? Like who thought that was a good idea?

I find Melee Zelda to be really...interesting. Few players, and relies on 3 moves...but somehow isn't bottom tier (isn't she like...low or something? Melee's tier format confuses me a bit).
Gonna start competing in Melee again with Zelda. Best placing was 8/35, hope I can get back to that level.

literally the worst thing in smash 4

OH NESS BACK THROW IS OP?

BETTER NERF ROB'S U THROW
Okay this part made me legit sad, ROB didn't deserve nerfs and his uthrow was amazing. I guess Mewtwo gets to keep his title of strongest uthrow but they could've just made it like 10% stronger than ROB's and nobody would've complained*

*someone would've complained

Nice recycled joke you've got there. :secretkpop:
I'll show you recycled.

What can you steal, and not get in trouble?
2nd base

What did the man steal that caused the officer to arrest him?
2nd base, he's a baseball player.

What base is between 1st and 3rd base?
Zelda, the guy that saves the princess.

Well I just talked to a really good Captain Falcon player and he seems pretty convinced that Greninja beats Falcon 60:40.

Not really sure what to think of that. I personally feel it's even but Falcon is pretty scary in neutral.

If they wanted to get rid of ROBs upthrow at least get rid of Ness back throw.

It's just unfair.

ROB's up throw getting nerfed seriously irked me. There really wasn't much reason to do so when ROB still had his own problems to deal with. I can live without it but still, that's the one thing about the patch I'm not happy with.

So...she still has all the same weaknesses, right? Sounds like she'd be even worse, since Melee has all that crazy Fox pressure and stuff.

But then there's this old match with Cosmo's Zelda.

I feel bad for that blonde guy in the front. Just look at how he's sitting lol.

Gameplay is a lot different. Zelda's game relied on kicks a lot more compared to Brawl/Smash 4 that focused more on a ground game.

...huh.

I always thought of that MU as even, at best 55:45 Greninja personally; it was also one of the MUs I planned on keeping Greninja as a secondary for when I picked up Rosalina, but I can't switch between those two playstyles that well and Rosa isn't really much worse off in the MU imo.

I guess I can see where he's coming from since Greninja has a projectile to stuff Falcon's approaches and can gimp him hard, but Falcon's way too scary a character to dismiss on that alone.

(Custom) Sonic is more cancerous to me...
Burning Spin Dash isn't invincible anymore in 1.0.6 at least!

Don't forget that Captain Falcon's disadvantage kinda sucks and Greninja has one of the best advantage states in the game.

I do see how someone could think Greninja wins but... Man Falcon's scary in neutral and kills so early, if he does get the upper hand it's a nightmare.

So there was this really good Mewtwo (surprisingly) on FG who beat me and next match he tried to Shulk ditto me with the same color and all he did was spam Buster fthrow

so I spammed Buster Back Slash and won

That's good but... Hammer Spin Dash is the Devil against Zelda.

I have a Sonic main in my region who is the only reason I can't break top 8. I usually place 9th~

But with customs... he's just worse. Now he places top 3 with customs. Ahh... the downsides of custom moves.

ya her dair was the weakest spike meteor in the game it still did the job at higher percents if you manage to land it, it also did a little bit more damage. just keep in mind most of her moves were just bad, I do miss her old KB on her Bthrow though

anyways melee zelda essentially had this

which hit for 20% fresh, had two of them, L canceled for less then 10 frames of landing lag, killed at like 80% (against no DI), had priority, (sourspot safe on hit) and **** on all sorts of recoveries. she just like all of her iterations was countered by simple dash dancing and baiting. To quote someone from the INY tournament
this matchup is like he's throwing out hit boxes and is like "fox please run into these"
Lastly for the record some people do think she is second worse in melee (most notably M2K, but well it's M2K) I'll expect her to fall if there is another official tier list for melee
If they wanted to get rid of ROBs upthrow at least get rid of Ness back throw.

It's just unfair.
they got rid of sonic Bthrow not sure how you can complain too much
ZSS is cancer.
yay people will stop complaining about my character I JUST REALIZED THIS QQ
(Custom) Sonic is more cancerous to me...

That rat needs to die.
nevermind, rip the dream
Wah! Hoo! -bloop bloop bloop-
I have to know, are those supposed to be fire ball sound effects?

Yeah, that kinda goes both ways though. Both characters have poor aerials for escaping juggles and the fall speed to get juggled hard - I'd argue that even with Greninja at least having risky tools in Substitute/Shadow Sneak that Greninja fears Falcon's uair (and other options) more than the other way around. I'd definitely rather be a Greninja offstage against Falcon than a Falcon offstage against Greninja, though.

If I could describe any character with one word, it'd be Mario with obnoxious.

Spot on, sis
wut.jpg

If I could describe any character with 5 words, it'd be Zelda with "Sakurai designed her while drunk"
"Rushed and forced by Nintendo"
@ Furret Furret who does m2k think is the worst
Kirby, keep in mind the whole world thinks that and all his tech I've heard of is either
  1. suicide stocks or
  2. borrowed from another character (example: jigglepuff wall of pain, Kirby fence of pain)
lemme be helpful and slow in answering things QQ
I just really hate custom sonic. Regular sonic is fine. No offence to you. :laugh:

:018:
I don't like customs period, already have enough match ups to learn.
Sonic also got more nerfs then what was listed in the large thread on patch changes btw.

I think the rules of the forums need to be updated to include this eventuality. Rule 11: If you do not ask out a girl you like and Aero finds out about it, you will be infracted 640,000 points.

Good old @Aerodrome

PS Happy 500 posts me. Been a G time joining the forums and hope you've had a G time reading some of my posts.

People talking about a description of how Zelda was designed? (In 5 words.)

Wasn't there something about Sakurai was having kinky action with his wife while he created Zelda in SSB4 said here, and kept her exactly how she was then (terrible) so he could remember that time?
