since my old thread/ chart is old, outdated and wrong im going to start from scratch with a new thread+better/more organized chart (to be inserted by hilt at some time)

also, if anyone writes good stage summaries/wants to copy the ones from dynne's thread ill put them in this post as well

scale
1: horrible stage for this matchup, always avoid

2: pretty bad but not horrible

3: its an even stage, might be great or bad depending on your play style but nothing inherently bad for olimar here

4: one of olimar's better stages, normally a solid cp

5: great olimar stage, should counterpick this whenever the opportunity presents itself
fino: this stage is RC meaning its fino's favorite stage, unless your fino or his clone please ignore the special number next to it

1. The middle part that can result in sd's doesn't harm oli too much, because he can tether from almost anywhere down there, and still grab the edge.
2. Both side have slopes. Camping is amazing on these slopes. Oli's pikmin toss while standing on a slope is so hot. It angles perfectly. It's amazing. Oli's grab is also amazing on the slopes.
3. The only section where gimping can occur is on the left side, which can be avoided.
4. The left side isn't even bad for oli. Because it is so close to the blast line, b-throw, d-smash, etc. kill so excellently here. Another thing is that:
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/stage..._080107a-l.jpg
If you look all the way on the left, you'll see that it is flat, then rises on the left, then declines on the right. Oli can be standing on the flat part or the rising part on the left, and grab people on the declining part on the right. It is amazing.
5. The right side of the stage, again, can be camped amazingly, and oli can get easy b-throw kills since it's a walkoff.

All in all, yoshi's pipes are ridiculously amazing.

wow didn't know there were that many charts, haha....
I basically had to decide whether to seperate them by Tier in different charts or to put them all in the same chart, but you'd have to scroll down in the chart to see anything A tier and down >.>

If you'd like the latter, it's easy to change so just let me know. You probably don't want five big charts in your thread :laugh:

edit: also, sorry it took me so long to put it in lol. I fell asleep ^.^;

Ahh, I just noticed you set Meta Knight as the first week.

I'll get my opinions on it a little later. All I will say, though, is that Rainbow Cruise should definitely be a 1 and Frigate a 2, for obvious reasons. I know you love Frigate, dabuz, but MK's just too good at gimping Olimar there lol. Norfair is pretty bad against him as well, as is japes.

I'll have more time to post more and reasons for what I posted above when I get back home :x

i personally find frigate to be decent against mk, around 3-4 area.
just gotta be careful on the first part of the stage, but the other 2 are set up extremely nicely for oli. just need to play it safe

ps1 probably a 5
it's a nice stage with platforms so mk can't aerial approach you too much or air plank. small ceiling and sides making it easy to kill for oli

fd a 6
large stage gives you plenty of room to run around and space. you want to be very campy here, don't spam too many pikmin he might try to approach you and catch you off guard. if he's sorta closing in as you sideb, try empty short hopping into a grab if he's still on the ground. if he likes to tornado, you can just run away and reverse sideb if he tries to chase. tornado is literally blockable every time unless he catches you with it when you jump/are in the air. this should be a solid cp against nearly anyone in the game, it's very good for oli period

battlefield a 5-6
very great stage for platforms that prevent mk from approaching from above too much. you want to stand near the mid and slightly under the platform here. get too close to the side he will be able to pressure you off and gimp

smashville a 4-5
floating platform helps recovery if you get gimped now and then, decently short sides and a medium ceiling. killing isn't too difficult here, but there are better options if you like flat stages.

yoshis 5-6
the middle platform in here really screws with mk aerial game. i love this stage vs. mk's because of the mega short sides and the randall slots saving you every now and then. easy to kill an mk here, just gotta be careful

lylat a 5
larger stage so you can move around a little bit, platforms help keeping him above you and approach from more toward the side. large stage so hard to kill, but just bait into a dsmash or shield his dsmash and punish with your own. overall a decent cp against mk, at least for me

rainbowcruise a fino
this stage is so good. a lot of mk's don't know you can bthrow into the wall on the ship and jab lock to 70 and usmash. they are like "ooo dtilt lock my turn to **** him" and all you do is shield grab. don't get hit by dtilt though ^_^ you can always take the fino approach and fsmash lock against the wall to play it safe. THE BIGGEST THING you need to remember on this stage is to try and plank the best you can while the stage is going up. you have no advantages whatsoever with the pendulum platform part, so you need to try to get to the top right as soon as possible.
honestly, unless you know how to play this stage avoid it.

A 9 against MK on Frigate Orpheon? Lolwut.
Yeah, frigate is a decent stage against mk... though I don't think it's THAT high now. Olimar's options are greatly increased with good stage control (ESPECIALLY ON THE SECOND PART MY GOODNESS @.@), while those same benefits do not reach to mk more than any other stage would. Also, spacing and priority help in this troubled match up. Yellow fsmash goes through tornado for instance, and on frigate you get more yellows. While stages like lylat also boost yellows, lylat isn't a good stage against mk for obvious reasons <.<




EDIT: 13 means the stage is too good to be true, because it's usually banned.

I'll post more definitions on other stages later on tonight. This is the main one I wanna address though >.>

Frigate is not a horrible stage for Olimar to play on. However, in no way would I say it would be a good place to fight MK on. In many matchups the ledgeless side isn't a problem. However, in the meta knight matchup it very much so is. Meta Knight is far too good at gimping and pressuring Olimar. I can see how the second phase can be, for the most part, better, though. The yellow pikmin do help in the matchup, but not enough. Yellow fsmash only goes through tornado at the bottom of the tornado and only at the beginning of the tornado.

Dabuz, I want to see a video of you (or someone else for that matter >.>) beating a mk (that knows the oli matchup) on frigate :x Because I'm just not seeing it. Saying it's good in the snake matchup? That's fine. Saying it's good in the meta knight matchup? umm....

I don't know about you guys, but I hate Halberd against MK. Sure, we can kill him pretty early, but I'm just scared of him sharking there. Same for Delfino, but we get more Purples there, and there are walk off areas, so it's probably better since we can't get gimped and get more kills than usually. I just think that there are different numbers on the same stages depending on the type of MK you're playing, like the smart/aggressive ones or the campy/defensives ones.

From November, before Fino steals my thunder again :p


And Frigate is not 9, or even close to it, for Mk. Keep it unbiased. And I think 10 is too many....5 is a better number, since it represents "terrible, bad, neutral, good, amazing" a lot better, which are better guidelines, and less strict, than "terrible, terrible with a pinch of bad, terrible with 2 pinches of bad...."

Hmmm? What do you mean @.@

Yellow fsmash only goes through tornado at the bottom of the tornado and only at the beginning of the tornado.
Right, you have that, and then the only way mk with tornado is punishable with a grab.

Profit?

Either way, I'm changing it to a 6 (from 7). Because just like lylat and luigi's... olimar has some gimmicks that will help him.... but it's not his best CP option at all.

i love rainbow cruise with all of my everything, it's my best cp. frigate is really good against mk as well, just gotta be real careful on the first part of the stage, in which it's bad against anyone but snake pretty much. i **** snakes on the first part.

as far as rainbow cruise, this stage is amazing if you are really in tune with how to use it. if you just can't seem to do well on it then maybe it's just not your stage. as far as vs. mk, there are other solid cp's i'de chose over RC but now and then throwing it in there kind of confuses them xD

Dude rainbow cruise is one of MK's best stage. Though you can get mk in an infinite on the wall of the ship.

I kind of agree with Dynne on keeping it 1-5.
And I can't agree to frigate being anything more than a five against Meta Knight. Maybe a six, but not likely. And Rainbow Cruise less than that.

Again, I'm going to need to see a video.

Hm, are we going to just give numbers or explain, cause I think it would be more beneficial if we went into some depth with stages. Or any stages that seem to stir more conversation.

I say RC is a half an half stage for Olimar against an MK. I mean MK does **** anywhere besides the boat,but you can just keep avoiding him while moving(plank?). Still the boat itself gives enough time to get MK to KO percentage or KO him there.

If it's 1-10 then I would have to give RC a 6.

Good luck avoiding mk, a much faster character with faster attacks as well, as olimar, an extremely floaty character who is slow as *** in the air and easily gets outprioritizez in the air by mk, while simultaneously hardly being able to grab the mk since all the platforms will just help his dair camping. That was a total run-on, but still. Also, mk has dtilt lock on the boat as well, so we're not the only ones.
2/5 for mk

That's just what I have been doing against many(all) MKs in RC, thing is my opinions might not be all that good cause I have only played online in AiB ladder matches. I have faced good MKs though, not all of them were scrubs. Next time I face an MK on RC i'll record it for ya.

Changes in red, but then again that's my opinion
Halberd is your best stage, easily.
Lylat is somewhat good for olimar, but overall better for mk
Delfino has a lot of good attributes including walk offs and low ceilings
Japes is overall bad, you best ko move is diminished, on top of that water will rarely kill mk.

For stages, you have to take into consideration what your opponents best strategy is for killing, and what your options are for killing.

Metaknight's two best kill moves are dsmash and shuttle loop, both with a strong horizontal knock-back.

Olimar's best killing moves are really in any direction, but his best kill move is upsmash. His strong horizontal kill moves are situational on mk, and are usually pulled off on good reading of the mk (assuming you can punish on top of reading).

Now lets look at japes. HIGH HIGH ceiling. Small blast zones from the sides (relative to the platforms on the sides). On top of that you have the water. Your best killing option has been taken away, and you other kill moves are EVEN MORE limited than normal, due to the stage layout of japes and you how have to "play to win" there. MK on the other hand has a boosted advantage of the smaller side blast zones, while the high ceiling doesn't hurt him at all. His dsmash and shuttle loop can kill you off the side platform at around 60% Note that the best option for olimar is to camp the right platform. Also, while we know how to deal with water, mk has less trouble recovering form it, while olimar can only survive if he falls on the far right areas.

I started a full conversation with someone else before the last sentence... and I forget what I was talking about... and it's 1:40. lol night for me ^^;

This sounds just about completely correct, imo.

Pirate Ship I don't play on enough. Stadium 2 I couldn't imagine being anything better than a 2, as MK would be able to take advantage of the stage situations much much better than Olimar would. Port Town Aero Dive definitely should be a 1 in this matchup >.>

Halberd I could consider being a five, just because it would be the best of the CP's to take Meta Knight to, with FD probably being right behind imo. Lylat I'm starting to lean towards 3 in lylat. The extra yellows help a bit but mk takes advantage of the platforms much better than Olimar does, as well as the slanting of the ship. I seem to have a much harder time recovering against mk on lylat than I do on battlefield, and I don't think there's too much that would warrant an advantage for Olimar here. Delfino is either 2 or 3 for sure. I'd go with three to be honest. RC is definitely worse than Japes for sure against Meta Knight. However japes is HORRIBLE in this matchup. Both would be considered 1's in my book haha. However Japes having a 2 is understandable. You just basically have to wait extra long for your kill and chill out in the middle section a lot longer.

Looks pretty legit otherwise. It'd be cool to hear some other olimar mains' opinions on it as well though :D

ummm an equation? alrighty lol

c - x = s
or
x + s = c
(obviously the same things >.>)

c: number of spaces wide the column is
x: number of characters (including spaces between words) that the word or number in the column contains
s: number of spaces you insert after the word, to make it and the amount of characters in the word equal the number of spaces wide the column is.

Then you start the next column right after that. It really isn't too difficult after you figure out what you're doing (and creating an equation for it isn't really TOO necessary lol)

personal opinions on stages for the snake matchup, i seem to do best against snake on yoshis and frigate, frigate i'm really good against snakes i'm careful on the first part and then the rest of the stage i dominate, it's perfect for snake =]

I honestly don't really like lylat against snake :/ Yellows don't really make too big of a deal in the matchup, and the platforms are well set for snake and his explosives. I don't see why this stage would be a five, while battlefield is a three >.>

I love delfino against snake. The stage has amazing colors for the matchup (purple and blue imo are the best against snake), and as long as you stay away from walk offs you should be able to camp him extremely well. I personally would think of it as a five if it weren't for the walk offs :/
