How do we win? Remain airborne, FF Uair, Jab Canceling works well, but remember he has a better ground and/or melee game than us. Always edge-hog, gimp at every chance you get. Try to air-dodge > Zair when he gets in, his Bair, Dair, and Side-B are all something good on offense. When you're in the position to be tech chased by Side-B, never sit there; He can Jab or Dtilt afterward. Overall, try to stay away from Ganon at all times, even when trying to KO. Just wait until he gets put offstage, and take advantage.

What do we watch out for? Dair, Side-B, Dtilt, and Bair(he can SH-AC a Bair and hit us because of our height).
Stages to BAN/CP? Ban: Japes, RC, YI, Frigate, Brinstar, and Delfino.
CP: BF, PS1, SV, Norfair(if applicable), or FD.
Tips/Tricks when fighting this character? We out space him, but i'm pretty certain he out-prioritizes us. As Hive said earlier, he is somewhat underrated. Just don't let him get in with fast attacks (his Down-B is laughable if it's predicted, and Side-B can get punished). Also, try to stay clear of him when you're at high %'s, and again, gimp whenever you get the instance.

Videos? Can't find anything recent.

ooo kwl where is that quoted from exactly? Or is my compy messing up and not showing some posts again? :p
He simply quoted Xyro's post so he could avoid multi-quoting and such. It's from the OP.

Anyway, I'll do a write-up eventually, or just dismiss ideas on a point by point basis.

:samus2: -> Advantage -> :ganondorf:

. : : Speaking from Ganons perspective : : .
Samus shuts us down, comboes us, camps us... all day.
BUT... with proper DI we can live for hours.
We shouldn't die until like 150%, while we kill her at around 95%.

If the Ganon is smart, he can, and should, play so that Samus CAN'T set him up for a gimp.
By that I mean: don't try anything fancy when Samus is pressuring you, while you've got your back against the ledge.
Instead, be willing to sacrifice a few %'s (take damage) in order to reach a somewhat safer location, where you at least can't be set up for a gimp.

How do we win?

~ Keep yourself at a distance from ganon at ALL times! Look for patterns (such as D-air gayness) and look for the chance to punish it and follow up on it. Ganon as lucas stated is a better melee fighter than us so there's no point in trying to fight him head on. Just stay focus, patient, and take advantage of all chances to punish ganon, especially stage spiking or gimping.
