The main player in my region feels that Doc is B tier. I told him he was the only Doc main that feels that way.So my first match on smash ladder went ok
My opponent picked Dr. Mario, and I picked diddy
The first thing he said was "you do realize Dr. Mario is c+ tier right?"
lol
how the mighty have fallenMeanwhile....
Here are some matches of my region's Doc player. I think there are better matches of his play than these, but it's definitely solid.Tbh
Dr. Mario isn't so bad. I mean, his frame data is great. Mobility is pretty bad. Recovery sucks. His damage output is great though. He still has combos that hit harder than Mario's usual combos. His jump punch hits hard.
Really, when you look at it, he's hampered by his mobility and recovery which are huge hits. Everything else is perfectly fine imo.
He's not low tier
Low tier sounds reasonable too (if only his recovery wasn't THAT awful :|). Also, you got me there with the frame data. Lol.Here are some matches of my region's Doc player. I think there are better matches of his play than these, but it's definitely solid.

Still don't think he's getting out of low tier though for now, just because he's basically Ganondorf with somewhat of a combo game. Of course, he can't be slept on, but his mobility really hampers his ability to dish out massive hurt, and that recovery is so much lol. In general, I just find that he has a harder time compared to Mario's MUs. Sure, he might have frame data, but frame data ain't everything that determines if a character is good or bad. *coughcough*
GGs to you too.@ CatRaccoonBL GGs That was fun and long. Haha
No, staph. What are you doing? Stop fueling his main changing addiction. ;_;@ Macchiato Didn't you main Lucas in Brawl? Do you think you'll main him when he's released?
Yeah I don't really know. I'm scared that they'll ruin him. Like this might be just me but I think mewtwos worst than he was in melee.@ Macchiato Didn't you main Lucas in Brawl? Do you think you'll main him when he's released?
Wolf's side-b on the other hand...That's what he gets for trying to get back onstage with his side-b that lacks a hitbox during the end of the attack.
....pikachu would make a good secondary
Who was this Rosalina player? : oJesus, I just managed to make a complete comeback against a Rosalina player who was 3 stocking me.
I ended the match at 150% and won because of a clutch fully charged shuriken hit lol.
Mewtwo worse...? Like sure he's lighter but he hits so much harder now. Confusion is actually useful for once. A whole lot of other thingsYeah I don't really know. I'm scared that they'll ruin him. Like this might be just me but I think mewtwos worst than he was in melee.
Right now I think I'm most confident with my Wii fit and pikachu would make a good secondary
Mewtwo's weight is a huge issue for him, but he has definitely been buffed overall. His damage output is insane. He's still not a great character, though.Yeah I don't really know. I'm scared that they'll ruin him. Like this might be just me but I think mewtwos worst than he was in melee.

His Bthrow was nerfed pretty hard, his utilt and dtilt were too. His lightness is pretty bad, especially since DI is weaker now. He also feels really sluggish like from melee I think most characters got faster while he didn't. He also doesn't have a good approach either.Mewtwo worse...? Like sure he's lighter but he hits so much harder now. Confusion is actually useful for once. A whole lot of other things
When I used Wolf in Brawl half of what I would do was trying to get kills with the hit box on the end of Wolf Flash lol. Didn't really care if it was a meteor or a launch. I guess you could say the move was... kind of flashy *shot*Wolf's side-b on the other hand...
It's another person here from Brazil, he really kept me on edge during the set.Who was this Rosalina player? : o
If DTilt was nerfed it's likely a side-effect of the engine change and not the move itself.Mewtwo's dash speed went from 1.4 in Melee to 1.696 in SSB4. Mewtwo's run speed is the same as Wii Fit Trainer. I wouldn't say he's sluggish.
Mewtwo's dtilt is his best move and was definitely not nerfed.
I'm sure you already know, but you can LL nair and the second hit drags the opponent into Rosalina's usmash if they're behind you. Ty Lavani for enlightening me on that one.Found out that the 2nd hit of Luma's nair combos into Luma Shot, probably won't be useful in the long run but the more you know.
Once I had a For Glory match where we were the exact same color. Didn't even do the dark/light thing. Confusing to say the leastMe in a ditto when someone picks my color palette

LL fair shenanigans are a ton of fun, too.
This was actually a thing with a Mario ditto. I tried using green Mario because that's my preferred color then the other Mario wanted green and I was likeOnce I had a For Glory match where we were the exact same color. Didn't even do the dark/light thing. Confusing to say the least
I hated that Legend of Zelda maze soooo much. I think I had like a 25% completion rate there because it was just so confusing.Random comment time: Melee's adventure mode wasn't that good.
