guide here

So as we all know the new matchup chart that the BBR has been working on has finally been released. I was thinking we could further discuss what ground work they've laid there and carry it on here. What do we agree with, what do we not agree with etc. I find it kind of funny that no one in the backroom approached us, unless it was by private message or they just talked to Ally. I agree with most of the spread sheet, but pika being our worst matchup seems kinda weird, also pokemon trainer should be -1 lol.

I like this way of giving numbers to matchups.
But srsly, Zelda our adv ? I want to see the reasoning behind that.

And yeah Pika shouldn't be our only -4.

Well we can sdi out of a lot of her stuff which sets us up for grabs, and she apparently has ****ty approaches more so than us. I also think the shielda think is dumb.

It seems fine with me. I don't really want to argue with them or anyone else about the numbers. If the trend fits, then I say they did an adequate job.

What does lucas have on us that ness doesn't? I figured Ness would be faster at getting away from us then Lucas.

lucas's ftilt is really gay, his pk fire is infinitely more stupid at keeping falcon away than ness, he kills falcon alot earlier, much much harder to gimp, can't air release to knee him

There are a lot of things which I don't agree on, either... But overall, yeah it's a very good effort.

The fact that Olimar is just -2 baffles me. Where do they come up with this stuff? Is it because we can gimp him *kinda* easily?

Maybe a -3 is a lot better.

Imo MK, Falco and Oli should be -4 too.

And the more I look at that the more I want to see the discussions that caused this result.

Same here. Where the hell did they get the idea that Olimar is just -2 for us? A good Olimar DESTROYS. ANY. FALCON.

We can't even approach him!

My experience again Pikmin has been erratic, I've played some that I've had an okay time dealing with, and then some that have destroyed my Falcon.

I think the most important thing to take out of this is to find out why they marked -2 on the Pikmin MU if our consensus conflicts with it.

Indeed. Even a noob Olimar can beat me sometimes, heh it all comes down to personal skill/ATs/spacing/whatever...

Maybe they DO have some good points, but I doubt it.

Scrub Olimars are scrubs. To me, it seems that good/decent ones tend to get unlucky a lot.

Not knowing what they are isn't gonna do much, and won't really forward any discussion. Those with a problem with it, I encourage you to find out why they set it like that.

I personally don't care because numbers don't mean **** to me. Not nearly as much as knowing why a character is bad against another.

I don't think Falco is that bad, he's kinda like an easier olimar, except his lazors don't grab you and **** you. From what I remember vs Denti he can also kill your *** if he gets a good down throw read with a red pikmin or something. I actually felt safer coming in and landing on a platform as opposed to the ledge because I got grabbed off of it every time. Of the three though I would hate facing an Olimar more. I love fighting mk's, and falco depending on the stage and whether or not the ***** jabs like DEHF.

Yes. Zelda is at the very least an even match against Falcon. I don't know why, I just feel that way whenever I play a fellow Zelda player of mine.

Tell us with grammatically correct English please. It helps your credibility when you're trying to explain something.

I suggest we focus on the higher tier character discussions instead

'k my english is bad but i try to help Falcon if you can't read bad english dont read my post.

Zelda isn't bad she has true combo with his nair cancel, we can't jab beacause she can do fair, nair... her jab is disjoint, she can combo it by dash attack or dash grab. She has dtilt lock even if you have a good sdi you take 2dtilt and 1dsmash... Her bair kill Falcon very fast.
For you why Falcon is better?
