Delfino

[Mix]

What do you all think about delfino being a good counter pick to some of TL's bad matchups?
Spiking through the stage is a good way to mess up your opponent : )

You can't spike through the stage...

I was actually wondering the same thing it kinda seems like Delfino plaza is become TL territory now.

[Frank The Tank]

You can spike in the water though with down air.

Mix, as was explained in the thread where it appears that Toon Link spikes through the floor, the Jigglypuff hadn't landed on the stage yet.

This is unlikely to work on a huge amount of characters, as not too many of them have the aerial capability to attack from beneath the stage safely. Notable exceptions might include Metaknight, Pit, Jigglypuff (obviously), and Kirby. Those are just off the top of my head though.

Eh well, seeing how it happened to work on Delfino, similar stages such as the Halberd would also work, assuming the opponent approaches from underneath. That in itself is rare though. It's not that great of a strategy, especially not something you should depend on, since if you miss they're literally right next to you while you take years to pull out your sword from the ground.

If you're looking for a stage to spike through the water, try the Pirate Ship. it's practically filled with water, not to mention platforms that Toon link almost finds sexy. But if you're really looking to counterpick so of your more difficult match-ups, I've been finding that Smashville is really good. The floating platform means that you won't have to worry about falling into Wolf's Fsmash (and Usmash I believe), and Olimar can't throw Pikmin upwards (though he CAN UpB, which is kind of annoying).

I like this stage since you can attack from underneath the stage. What I usually do is chill on the edge, go underneath and try to hit with whatever aerial (all of them seem to work well, though I don't use bair as much). Up b works well too.

I wouldn't say this is the best counterpick stage, but its good.

A stage I really like is distant planet, though i dont know if its banned yet. Tink can really control the stage well. I usually attack from underneath, or go from the right ledge to the bottom one. Most people just hang out on the middle part of the stage (with all the leaves and such), so it makes it pretty easy.

delfino is good but yoshis island is even better ^_^ if we dont play final des or battle field i pick that or smashville for lulz

[Silfalas]

If the stage has water, then dair the hell out of it :P
Besides, platforms are too thin so you can piss off the enemy with arrows more easily than other stages.
