Huh, there's actually quite a few Greninjas in the top 50 of the ladder right now, not only is there me but two other guys, one of which is also going Greninja solo and he's the one who's a lot better than me.

I'm still the highest ranked though but that's probably going to change eventually considering I can't stop losing lately because of lag messing everything up >_>
I played @ momochuu momochuu I beat her with Zelda the first time we fought. Then she started camping me the second set we ever played and she won. On Smashladder I'm known as HannahMontuna

Wario gameplay-wise is a pretty fascinating and unique character.

Wario character-wise is a fat, gassy, crude little man

If Wario spoke actual English most of the time and not random grunts, he'd be higher than Sonic in terms of irritability in playstyle and character.

Wario is one of my favorite Nintendo characters in non-Smash games. It's just that his Smash moveset is a horrible excuse for character representation and I hate it.

Play xDarkAurax he's ridiculously good with his Greninja. He apparently even played with aMSa before and learned a few things from him and it really does show. He even has a perfect win streak in the ladder right now though he only played 22 matches.

but at least we can take pride in knowing that anyone that likes Rosie secretly likes Zelda too since Rosie is Zelda with a few different moves.
.
I know this wasn't serious, but yeeeeeeeee-no. I tried Zelda several times during friendlies, and I always get 3 stocked. Only 2 if I get a good read. I don't understand her at all. Every move of hers feels like I need to know exactly what my opponent's next move is. I also like to have hitboxes out...which is something I can't really do with Zelda or else I will die because a large chunk of her moves have quite a bit of lag.

As for the moves she shares with Rosalina, I can really only think of Down smash, and even then down smash isn't what I think of when I think of Rosalina.

Random thing but is :4luigi:really that good? Tourney results and all that lean him towards a top 3 or top 5 character in this game. And he does beat characters like :4diddy:and :4falcon:, but he has weird MUs overall. He gets bodied hard by :4sheik: and :rosalina:, and even some out of there characters like :4dk: give him problems.

Worst of all, he's not THAT advantageous against :4zelda:so that automatically makes him a bad top tier. :^)

Really, I have a Luigi in my local. He's pretty much undefeatable at this point in time. How does Zelda deal in the MU ?
For Zelda, Luigi's combo ability from grabs and his zoning pressure give her lots of problems. The problem I find Luigi has is that he's relatively slow in mobility, which means an aware Zelda can avoid getting hit by his grabs and combos. Without Dthrow -> DownB, Luigi has a hard time killing reliably, and he can't punish Zelda's laggy moves as well because of his traction. If Luigi can't kill early, he risks getting an early kill, either from a rage elevator or a gimp with Zelda's decent edgeguard recovery. Finally, Luigi's landing options are not exactly the best, and if the Zelda player can scare him to air dodge often, she can get a read LK or Uair.

This is all theory fighter though, haven't fought a legitimate Luigi yet. :/

Thanks, I'll test it out at the next local.... which is this weekend.

I use tall and thin.
Any reason why? I can never remember what all the size variations do for Miis. IIRC tall would give him range and thin would help him be mobile... but I could be wrong.

Also, screw Ike's Specials frame data. Everything is so messed up!
You're using Ike? He's a pretty good fundamentals character.

I think swordfighter and gunner are very unique
Gunner is like a mix of Samus and Villager with an actual grab and it's beautiful. Swordfighter is like Kirby and Link mixed. It's weird.

Wario is one of my favorite Nintendo characters in non-Smash games. It's just that his Smash moveset is a horrible excuse for character representation and I hate it.
They took out one of (the?) his only Wario Land moves, his FSmash. Little Mac isn't unique with his super armor smashes, Wario did it first :warioc: (I think)

Some advice is to be patient, and try to fight it on the ground. You can't challenge him in the air that much, and don't panic if you're getting combo'd early. Best to keep your cool, and try to wait for his attempt to try and kill you, and punish whiffs. Get stage control and try to put him in a disadvantageous spot as much as possible off-stage.

It's just the Mii I made for an OC I made some time ago so I just went with the size that would fit with that character, it's not for competitive play or anything like that =V

Yeah, Ven gave me the same advice too. This time, I'm going for first place with my mains because it's the last tourney I'll be maining them other than Zelda. (she's going to be my doubles main)

I've been using Ike since Brawl, but less so in Smash 4; I'm data mining and his Specials are a soooooooo annoying to deal with.

Was it always a known fact that Ike, Pit, Fox, and Falco, and maybe Captain Falcon and Ganondorf have less end lag if they short hop their Side Specials?
