'Tis not as if Ike is a clumsy butterfingers or anything. His grip is undoubtedly more than a worthy adversary for Sonic's attempt to pull his own weapon away from him, should that ever happen. In fact, should Sonic try that tactic, I do believe it would be a fatal mistake...

I believe that if one were to say, accidentally drop Ragnell on the floor under a table, then pick it up, chances are they would accidentally slice the table in half in the process of picking it up, not to mention it can spam projectiles indefinitely that have enough power to easily kill a man...

He's just plain fun, and that's all that needs to be said, but I can go on. He's at the bottom of the tier list, he's the most evil character in the game, he's the only one who uses Purple, his Down Air has real hitstun, he has a very good grabbing special that can be used to reliably...

As much as I looked forward to seeing Ike's hitboxes, I now realize it's really not that important. He probably has some of the simplest hitboxes in the game; just follow the sword. It was nice to get a readout on Eruption, though.

From my personal experience, there's really nothing you can do, so I try to focus more on what NOT to do, like Quick Draw, and being anywhere near the guy for any longer than a jab's time.

That sounds about right. Maybe I only thought it was a good edgeguard BECAUSE I was fighting Luigi...

What are some comprehensive uses for Eruption if any? I mean, it seems like a good edgeguard against some characters at some times, but at the same time, it doesn't, because it could be easily worked around. The only real use I can immediately see is if maybe you're falling and somebody's...

Ah; now I see your intentions, Johnathon... and they are naught but altruistic in nature.

Correction: Murder Choke>laserlock>Murder Punch is BOOORRRRRKEENNNN!!!

Because you thought the existence of a good Ganon was crazy? Whoo whee, it's about as hard to find a good Sonic in the poostorm of awful fanboy mains, and either of the two said "good" mains encountering and fighting in person is less likely to happen than the release of a good Sonic game...

Sounds scary. I'll ask Syx to have that tried on me later to see how bad/possible that really is. No, she's getting waterboarded or something by some insane screaming naked lesbian who also happens to be stretching her face.

Well, nobody of any respectable stature plays him in tournament in NorCal; maybe not even in all of California, and if they do, I've never seen them, unfortunately. I have been privy to many painfully bad Ikes in tournament that thought they were all hot stuff, though...

Anything better than a Grab Release to a Forward Tilt, Up Tilt, or cooked Grenade? If not, then I have.

Hard to say; I've never played any other Ikes in person, and I prefer to be modest. I'll give myself a 6 to be safe.

He's just got a fun and rewarding moveset, in which lies some of the greatest merits in Brawl, like the power in his Forward Smash and combination of speed and killing power in his Back Air, basically the best jab in the game, and the ridiculous reach on Forward Air, not to mention most all of...
