I seriously and truly, from the bottom of my heart, hope that you guys don't do this.
Smashmains thread.
>>260705752
The only favorable matchup I know is a good player against a bad player.
who fucking cares what tier your main is at
i play my main because they're badass in my eyes not because they're the most op character
Playing anyone other than Fox and Falco is stupid, just look at those fucking ratios.

I like to be Kirby or DK and just SD with the person I'm fighting against. Am I the worst kind of person?
>>260705752
Woah, since when is Kirby so low ??
I thought some pro player was maining him recently and its ratio went gradually better...or was it in brawl/PM ?

Smash should not be played competitively.
It wasn't meant to be competitive, and the creator doesn't consider it competitive.
>>260709835
Daily reminder that anti-tourneyfags are more elitist about their preferred rules than tourneyfags.

If he really didn't want it to be competitive he'd just have "lol that was fun" after every match
>>260709553
>Implying Kirby wasn't the second strongest character in 64
Only below Pikachu, and Pikachu had its own tier like Meta Knight. Then again everybody was kind of viable in 64, even D Tier characters.
Mains:
64:
Captain Falcon
Fox
Meele:
Captain Falcon
Roy
Fox
Brawl:
Ike
Captain Falcon
Sonic
(Prediction) Smash 4:
Veterans:
Sonic (Reports say he is stronger and some of his moves changed animations)
Captain Falcon (has always been my main, hope he is buffed)
Newcomers:
Shulk (looks fun to play as, will probably replace my Ike)
Bowser Jr (If the leak is correct then I will always use the Roy skin. He also looks fun to play as.)

>Smash 64 being factored into Melee tier listings
Well that's an interesting idea anons, you should propose that to the community at large and see how it's received.
>>260705752
>tiers
It's like you hate fun
Did you know? Pikachu, Ice Climbers and Meta Knight are the only characters with their own tier list, with Pikachu in S tier in Smash 64, Ice Climbers in S tier in Brawl and Meta Knight in SS tier in Brawl.
>>260710590
And knowing is half the battle.
>mained link in 64, gave no shits about tiers
>mained marth in melee
>mained snake in brawl
>gonna main robin in sm4sh
Man having variety a great
That's an old list. Falcon isn't S anymore.
I main whatever characters I enjoy most. I look at the tiers just for fun, doesn't influence who I play. >mains Ike Ganon and C Falcon
>>260710360
Your 64 melee and Brawl mains are literally the same as mine. Good taste.
I only play with Game and Watch in Melee and you can fuck off with your Mary-Sue characters.
I main the Cap mostly. Played lots of Roy in melee and Marth in Brawl though. Planning on maining Falcon, with MU and Lucina as second mains in 4.
>major resurgence of popularity in the smash community due to EVO 2013
>surely this tier list couldn't be severely outdated!
lmao
there's a million changes you can argue but the major ones are that falcon isn't S any more and yoshi should be in the A tier above ganondorf
also samus has excellent matchups despite her A tier placement
>>260711968
Who are you planning on maining on Smash 4?
>>260713095
We differ there. Robin and Falcon are my big ones. Interested in Greninja too.
>>260712443
you could easily argue that there aren't enough tiers in the 1st place. The gap between peach/falcon is huge. So is IC/doc. Fox/falco/shiek should also be the only s tiers
SSB64:
Pikachu

Pikachu

I've been playing a lot of Melee lately, since my roommate happened to have an old disk lying around.
I always loved Link, he may not be the objective best, but he's sturdy and has a lot of fun tricks.
Back in the old days, me and my best friend from highschool would have little Link vs Marth duels for hours on end, that was always fun.
>>260713448
i've always liked the idea of the tiers being "viable/mostly viable/somewhat viable/trash" but yeah, i agree. you can have a tier list with the same idea anyways, always viable nearly always viable with work, etc. etc.
I play Yoshi for Egg Juggling. Come at me amateur Furfags.
>>260705752
Fuck off tourney fag. This game is not for you
http://mynintendonews.com/2014/08/29/sakurai-wants-super-smash-bros-to-appeal-to-everyone/
>>260714271
it says in the title everyone, not casuals.
>>260715246
"We want to appeal to a wide audience" is dev slang for "we're dumbing things down".
>>260713448
A lot of top players are seeing marth as a great counter to spacies in the current meta, and I would have to agree.
>>260715246
Yes, but not for tournament fags who need to tier everything and only play the best character and have to have the game catered to them.
>>260715748
I feel like marth vs spacies is too stage oriented to be a solid counter
>>260715859
"everyone" includes tourneyfags
>>260716139
True, but all you need to do is get one good round in and if you end up losing you get that counterpick stage and FD is pretty much a free win for Marth against the spacies.
>>260706792
>tfw Marth player

>Playing characters based on tier lists
>Not just getting good with your favorite character so you can wreck people who don't expect it
>>260717343
Have fun with Kirby.
>>260717531I do.
>>260715859
But the don't have to have the game cater to them. why don't you retarded brawlfags realize Sakuai did everything he possibly could to piss on competitive players with brawl?
Melee, 64 and 4 didn't cater to competitives but they also didn't try to fuck them over.
>mfw wrecking noobs who think they can into Smash because they learned to Wavedash and play Fox by just dash chaining them with Dr. Mario into back throw
>>260717343
Yeah, good luck. I'm sure you'll show M2K how it's done with Bowser because he "doesn't have practice against him". Tier lists are there for a reason dip shit. They aren't just arbitrary bullshit. You might be able to beat your friends with Ness, just don't expect to have fun against people who are actually good at the game.

The discussion is whether the game is competitive or not, which it obviously is due to it's very nature
>>260721583
As a g&w main, it actually is extremely frustrating when your attack animation goes through someone and does nothing and they proceed to punish you for something you should've actually been hit by.
Who else is praying for a character they personally like that sucked in Brawl to get a huge buff?

Sure I agree with you when we're talking SSB64 or Melee, but Sakurai just does this shit on purpose in Brawl resulting in the lowest attach rate of the century.
Can't we just get someone else working on Smash? geez

I play games to enjoy them, when I win it feels good, when I lose I get to see my friends happy.
Tiers and builds are the reason games are boring to me nowadays, everyone is either A or B with an exact copy of moves/equipment/patterns. No creativity, experimentation, or fun allowed.

>>260724168
The RNG in Pokemon and Mario Kart is too prominent IMO. I'm not saying they can't be played on a comp level but it's still a stupid thing to do.
That's the same as playing RPS on a comp level.
I think Dota is different, since most RNG-filled things make sense to a degree.
>>260705752
I played mario pretty much only because his fun as fuck cape attack. Too bad it's nerfed in Brawl, and probably still nerfed in 4

Samus is bottom tier in Brawl and Smash 64.
