SSBU Create your roster.png


Not much has changed for me. The only new character I've added is Mega Man, and he and Ike are my least used characters. The characters in the top four rows are the characters that I play as the most (50 matches each), I sometimes play as the characters in the fifth row (about 25 matches each), and I rarely play as the last two characters (about 10 matches each).

Also, I've started using different alternate colors for some characters:

Peach: Red -> Blue
Zelda: White -> Red
Jigglypuff: Default -> Green
Pikachu: Birthday hat -> Female Pikachu (7th color)
Pichu: Flower -> Spiky-eared Pichu (female)
Yoshi: Crafted Yoshi -> Pink
Kirby: Purple -> Blue

Banjo and Falcon are the closest I'd consider to a main. The characters on either side of them are ones that I play a lot, but I don't consider them to be my mains. Lastly the characters at the bottom are ones that I enjoy and I might play as, just not as frequently as the top row.
 
Dr. Mario does have the most satisfying back throw in the game.
 
Yep! I also have better luck beating my nemesis King K. Rool with him. But I'm not a professional smash player, so I'm not so technical about my character choices. I'm good with almost all of them. Pokemon fighters besides Lucario and Mewtwo are my weaknesses.
You should probably know the basic weaknesses and strengths of your characters as well as the matchup. King K. Rool is a heavyweight that specializes in close-range moves. Mario and Dr. Mario generally have range issues which can make them sometimes struggle against ranged heavyweights like DK and Bowser, but they should have an easier time with King K. Rool. There's a comedy mention of Dr. Mario's projectiles comboing into King K. Rool trying to recover. King K. Rool is really bad at trying to recover back, being big and having no defensive options, so the fireballs/pills hurt.
 
I know I recently posted a tier list, but here's an actual list of my mains, just so that it can be a little more precise.

My fully updated roster. And good grief am I loving playing as Banjo. I wasn't that hyped for him when he was announced cause I wanted Minecraft Steve (still do though, a lot), but man is he enjoyable to play as.

Oh yeah, the Mii Brawler has Shot Put, Suplex, Soaring Axe Kick, and Head-On Assault.

Nothing has changed, really. Dedede and Kirby are still my primaries, and Yoshi and Meta Knight are still my secondaries. Mario and Luigi are here because I've gotten good with their movesets and use them on occasion, but that's about it.

Oh yeah my main now is Ike.

Lucario still strong secondary.
 
I bought all the DLC, and went through and trained myself as everyone, so I can play random and whoop almost anyone, but I main Snake, Captain Falcon, Lucas, King Dedede, R.O.B., Meta Knight, and I enjoy Terry, the Street Fighters, Luigi, and others. I like to stay diverse.
 
My mains have changed quite a bit since the last time, but I haven't played the game in a while so I'll rank them when I do. Meanwhile my top 6 mains are:

1-Banjo and Kazooie
2-Sonic
3-Meta Knight
4-King Dedede (yes I love him he's so fun)
5-Piranha Plant
6-Terry

Right now I'm tryna get good with Mario cause he seems like a really fun character.

He's straightforward and easy to learn, so he doesn't require much mental effort to have fun with. Anyway, his smash attacks, aerials, and utilt are your friends. He's really good at combos, is mobile enough, and fludd's super underrated. Most attacks in his toolset have their place. Meteor knuckle's always satisfying to land.
 
Bump, so I can tell you I have invested too much time into this game:

No Pyra/Mythra on the poll :(
 
I'm currently maining Bowser. I'd like to learn Luigi more so I can main him, but I'm so accustomed to Bowser at this point that he'll probably be the character I use the most anyway. Besides him, I also use Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Kirby quite often.
