Dsmash says gtfo.Ike says hi. Free money ftw.
Been avoiding the dtilt/Dsmash setups (or just plain Dsmash) well, have you...I haven't actually been in a position with enough lag to die to Dsmash in 5 months. When you know only one move can kill you, you do your best to avoid the situations where that move is viable. That's why I find it so hard to land up tilt with snake.
On a completely serious note, ike pretty much was given free reign over low tiers. He doesnt get chain grabbed by bowser and actually has a chaingrab ON bowser. He beats Zelda rather reliably, ***** PT and the rest of the cast aside from maybe samus and with proper DI you don't die against samus until like 190-240.

He doesntAlso, I didn't know he beats Lucas.
He either does, or he's even.Ike probably does stand the best chances at low tier, though we'll let the wins do the talking, since low tiers tend to be a lot less about how good they are against everyone else and way, waaay more about the player. Kinda like a more balanced fighter. Also, I didn't know he beats Lucas.
We have more than just gimping against Ike...He either does, or he's even.
Lucas boards don't want to admit it, but it's true. His projectiles don't keep us back well enough, and up close we can really rack up the damage, better then they can. They have an easier time gimping us, but thats about it.
Dude, where did you get that Zelda Vs. DDD is 60:40 DDD? Both boards say its 60:40 Zelda...Read what I said again. I wasn't talking about Ike chaingrabbing Bowser.
Ok, as a big joke, this is how viable Zelda is in a realistic tournament setting. Zelda's matchups are something like this...
Meta Knight 25-75
Snake 30-70
Wario 40-60
Falco 40-60
Diddy 40-60
Dedede 45-55
Marth 40-60
Game and Watch 30-70
Pikachu 40-60
Olimar 30-70
Average ratio is 36-64
36-64 is terrible. Now, let's average it out in accordance to how common these characters are in tournaments. (again, this is just my estimate)
MK 85%
Snake 14.99999%
Everyone Else 0.00001%
Average ratio is 25.650007-74.349993
That's right, Zelda's average matchup against the top ten is about 26-74.
ENJOY THOSE CRAPPY ODDS! HAHAHAHA!!!!!
Who has an action that comes out in less then 3 frames? Everyone.
Except Ness and Lucas. They suck

Excellent point here. Zelda is a chraracter that exudes grace, style and general awesomeness. I think this is the number one reason to play her. Unfortunately, you do not get style points when it comes to tier list placements >_>Really, to make her good, you basically have to take her out of character.
If you want her to run fast, she can't be a princess.
If you want her to grab fast, she can't be a princess.
If you want her to attack fast, she can't be a princess.
If you want her kicks to hurt, you have to put some magical force in a specific spot to enhance her grace.
If you want her to not be broken, her B moves have to be toned down, which makes them suck.
If you want her to live longer, she needs to be shorter and heavier.
If you want her to do anything, you have to be someone else. As far as "Princess Zelda" goes, she's a very nicely designed character. She does not transfer into the world of Smash that well.

but being limited is bad : /Zelda doesnt suck either
Just limited
Sonic has teh mindgames.And look at Sonic people said he sucked now look at him
wrong princess : /She does ok against Wario too
I believe she has an infinite on him??
problem is sheik only does marginally better against who? she gets CG by falco, marth really outreachs her, she can approach and camp snake but thats it. and if you only main Zelda your sol. : /She does gets ***** by MK,Olimar, Falco, Marth, G&W, and Snake(to an extent...its easy to dair spike his recovery)
But for certain bad matchups
theres always Sheik to back her up
she can? i thought best she got was grab release>LK. and we know about that grab.jiggly, two things:
1) Zelda can infinite Wario, as far as I remember.
2) Sheik does good against Marth. Slight disadvantage really.
O_Oshe can? i thought best she got was grab release>LK. and we know about that grab.
She gets camped by everyone that shoots projectiles faster then herself.How's Zelda's camping game in the low tier game?
Grab Release LK works. But combined with Zelda's terrible grab and Wario's camping, it's really hard to grab him. Plus, Wario beats Zelda pretty hard anyway.she can? i thought best she got was grab release>LK. and we know about that grab.
