Guide to Match-Up Ratios and Colors

Blank? - Currently Undiscussed

The discussion is either currently taking place or will soon.

_____________

50:50 - Even

Each character is on an equal footing and has an even chance of winning.
_____________

55:45 - Slight Advantage

One character has some slight advantage over the other and has only a slightly better chance of winning.
_____________

60:40 - Advantage

One character has an obvious advantage over the other and is favored to win. The match-up is winnable though always an uphill and difficult battle.
_____________

65:35 - Heavy Advantage

One character has options that shut down the other's options very well. The disadvantaged character should consider counterpicking but the match-up is not completely impossible.

_____________

70:30 - Solid Counterpick
_____________

The advantaged character shuts down the other character completely. Counterpicking is highly encouraged and you should not be able to win the match-up unless the skill/knowledge gap is large.
_____________

>= 75:25 - Impossible

An unwinnable match-up. Counterpick please.

Micaelis, you should come back and try to revive your thread. We need a complete MU thread.
no one cares enough to make one.

btw DK DEFINITELY has a disadvantage against oli 60-40 oli

DK > ICs. I can guarantee it now. 55-45 DK

fox > DK 55-45

TL > DK 65-35 I can't even kill Mjg anymore

DK against Oli isnt that bad i shall agree with Rag its kinda even just play safe and get him off stage.

DK beats IC's i can agree with that dnt get grabbed.

TL and DK MU isnt so horrible but TL still wins tho and Fox also does beats DK.. Fox his speed and lasers is annoying.

The only things you have to do vs oli are not land in front of him or be in the air above him.

Yes DK-lolimar is definitly 60-40 (olimar advantage)
Downb is useless and very punishable if you try it and you miss you always have a pikmin family on your head.
Grounded upb is only good when you're not predictable it's not safe pivot grab ***** it.
Ftilt.......
Oli is too small for bair spacing...
You have to put him in the air or offstage and gimp/juggle (but with he's super armor that's not so easy) upb stalling is good. I think Nair is quite useful for gimping too but maybe it's personal.
Olimar can easy camp in this matchup and play safe is very hard for the monkey.
I think grab is very useful for dk.
