Dedede's kind of an odd case in that his handful of good options are surprisingly obvious and threatening, but it's still very easy to destroy yourself with him (even with something as simple as using otherwise normal moves that are apparently just meant to give your opponent a free stock and nothing else, most notably his dash attack). Gordo tilting and various other scary shenanigans definitely keep the entertainment alive, though.

I'd also want to say Sheik and/or Sonic, but I haven't put nearly enough effort into them yet anyway.

I feel kind of ashamed for being bad at playing Meta Knight. I self-destruct way, waaay too much. It's my main cause of death while playing him.

My favorite in every game has been Pikachu

Even in Super Smash Flash 2, pikachu is OP. That Down A area of effect attack, that Down B artillery strike, that Volt tackle, that insane recovery. Pikachu is a god

Conversely- Ever since Melee, Pikachu and I have simply not gelled. I don't know what it is, but I just can't handle playing as the little 'lectric rodent.

I sure said that!

If I'm feeling like messing around, I'll go Jigglypuff or Dedede. I'm not really good with either, Dedede especially, but I kinda know the basics. The only character I can't really do much with is Olimar.

I'll pretty much only play as Pikachu or Fox(and clones) or Link(and Zelda), in that order

I really suck at playing Peach, Pac-Man and Duck Hunt but their shenanigans are so fun.

All of them are capable of great shenanigans, but only Duck Hunt is built entirely around them.

I will not ever forget the beautifully pavlovian response I still sometimes get from people who don't quite know how to handle Clay Shooting- Lob a couple of pigeons at them until they think they've got a defensive timing down, then use the side-taunt.

I sure said that!

I've started to get pretty good with WFT, who I find fun to play as just because most of the people I tend to play against don't really take her seriously. And then they get yoga'd.

Shenanigaaning with Duck Hunt is one of my favorite things to do.

Never before has a tin can garnered so much laser-focused hatred.

I liked to think I'm kinda well rounded with all the characters that I like playing.

Then I remembered I'm kinda bad at the Wii Fit Trainer.

Some days I like to think I'm good, though.

Same with Duck Hunt too.

I tend to SD by accident when I play as Greninja and I do a Shadow Sneak instead of a Hydro Pump. I am also bad at Olimar but I really hate playing as him.

Favorite character I'm terrible with? Hmmm, in no particular order: Robin, Shulk, WFT, Megaman... Maybe Bowser Jr.

I think those are the ones I most gravitate towards despite being terrible with them.

For the inverse (character I hate playing as but am good with), I have Yoshi.

Technically, there is only one Melee vet that is not in Smash 4. Pichu is the one that's missing. You might be thinking "And Young Link!", but that's kinda incorrect. Link has a Fierce Deity alt, so it could mean that Young Link is wearing that mask that turns him into the Fierce Deity Link.

Personally, I sure do love Wario, but I don't think I've ever won as him in Sm4sh. I like to think I was decent as him in Brawl, but for some reason, I can't play well as him now. Maybe it's because I focus more on Mario, Little Mac, Mega Man, and Pac-Man, and thus don't have as much practice with the Purple Wind.

Little Mac is always fun to play as, win or lose. He feels satisfying to mess around with. Ganondorf is also a similar power rush.

I'm pretty sure the concept of Law having limits was a translation error. -Wanderlustwarrior

[up][up][up]Not to mention the whole "Toon Link is literally Young Link with a different art style" thing.

It pisses me off how people insists they're different. If you're gonna say "they're from different time periods" or something like that, well... I guess Link himself was cut after Melee, because that's the TP Link in Brawl/4, not the Hero of Time!

Young Link and Toon Link do play differently, of course.

Probably not enough of a reason to bring the former back, of course. We'd wind up with another Lucina/Roy situation.

Young Link and Toon Link are the same concept. Lucina and Roy, not so much.

For me, I'd say Dedede, Wario, Ike, Bowser Jr., and Pac Man.

I'd say I'm decent as Duck Hunt, Wario, Mario, Dr. Mario on occasion, Marth, Roy, Link, and Toon Link. Characters I'm bad as but are still fun to use are Villager, Mega Man, Captain Falcon, Ganondorf, Bowser, Bowser Jr., Yoshi, and Luigi.

That said, I can't really pull off most of the crazy stuff dedicated Villager, Yoshi, and Luigi players can do, but I like to think I'm fairly competent with all of them.
