Fox/Puff is IMO the best team. Fox destroys the floaties and Jiggs destroys the fastfallers. Jiggs can save Fox at a trajectory which prevents edgeguards, and both can do pretty sadistic things if the other one gets a grab. Jiggs patrols the sky, while Fox patrols the ground.

i'll go ahead and answer the question you're probably lookin for.
:p

ICs are generally accepted as bad in teams (i know you probably know this).

What everybody has said so far are pretty much the generally standards

Fox (KO)
Peach (Tank)
Jiggs (Support/KO)
Sheik (KO)

i wouldnt agree with CapFal so much, but then again how many CapFals do we have down here to gauge?

But i'm surprised nobody has mentioned marth; who is great for his grab game + tippers.

Sure he's not the BEST choice (or better than any of these other choices) But his grab game ****in ***** with... oh say a jiggs?


And then his edgeguarding. >.>

how can you forget samus? she can help anybody recover with her bombs, her charge shot destroys anything, and missiles. Missiles missles missles. She is overlooked pretty often when it comes to both singles and doubles. sure she has no grab game but name another weakness, I dare you.

I must admit, when my friend plays Samus alongside my Falco we can fair pretty well against my other friends usual combo of Marth/Roy.

Falco/Fox for tough "in ya face" attacks, and Samus can spam projectiles and edgeguard a side maybe.

Samus equals projectiles. Projectiles are underpowered in teams.

ZOMG Duluth, GA mostly... sometimes Weston, FL
peach is the one that improves the most when in teams.

But the best teams partner is probably fox, and not just because he's the best in singles, but he's just really good in teams as well.

Any combination of Fox, Peach, and Marth are the best teams.

Most of the tournament viable characters are just as good in teams though, its just that those are the best.

Probably the best best is Fox Peach... but well, I dont think its as clear cut as in singles. In all honesty, teamwork makes a far larger difference in the match then the inherent advantages of the 2 characters together.

YL is the worst.

...

nana's the best.

I suppose it all counts on the players behind the characters ;)

But yeh your best bet probably lies with Fox or Falco, teamed with Marth or Shiek IMO.

Dogy knows whats up.
;)

-Marth/Jigs
(KO/Support)
-Marth/Peach
(Support/Tank)
-Marth/Fox
(Support+Tank/KO)
-Marth/Sheik
(Support+Tank/KO)
-Marth/Ganon
(Support+KO/Tank+KO)
-Marth/Samus
(KO/Tank+Support)

are all viable teams, not the BEST, persay, but they can get the job done, so long as the marth knows how to play his role in the team.

IMHO team character tier list looks like:

Top: Fox, Peach
High: Jigs, Marth, Sheik,
Mid: C-falcon, Ganon

Oooo that Marth/Ganon combo looks good...never tried that before...

Hmm maybe put a really quick attack char in, so they contrast. Like Shiek/Ganon. Sheik would be the support and quick damage giver, and then Ganon could just run in and KO the opponent :laugh:

fox/falco(classiclol)

sheik/jiggs
sheik/samus

Jiggs is great on teams. She has teammate grab-->Rest--> jab cancel with all characters, and can edgeguard someone that her teammate knocks away.

With Fox, she has shine-->Rest. (Can you imagine Chillin shining an opponent across the stage like we've all seen, straight into a teammate's Rest?) Also, if Fox starts a pillar, Jiggs' Pound can break the opponent's shield, and you know what happens after that. That also works with Falco.

And then there's the simple fact that Jiggs can Rest an opponent while their attention is diverted, which happens frequently on teams. Example: I love using Rest to interrupt my opponent's chaingrabs on my teammate.

This next part is just conjecture, but it seems that Jiggs' Pound + Marth's neutral B can also instantly break a shield.

Finally, Jiggs can float forever just outside an opponent's reach, giving her teammate an opportunity to just walk up and smash the occupied opponent.

Pretty sure Jiggs gets even more advantages on teams that I either forgot to mention or never knew of. She's probably the best team character.

EDIT: I never referred to Fox as a "she." I was talking about Jiggs whenever she is teamed with Fox.
