What are the best moves in melee for each button function, as far as usefulness in fighting goes?
Here's my incomplete opinion, but please comment your own with explanation.
By the way, I'm still learning about the game, so I'm no pro at this stiff. Also, there will probably be lots of Marth bias... sorry.
Neutral A: Falco
Side Tilt: Sheik
Up Tilt: Marth
Down Tilt: Marth
Dash Attack: Sheik
Side Smash: Marth
Up Smash: Fox - Better hitboxes than Pikachu
Down Smash: Peach
Neutral Air: Fox
Forward Air: Sheik
Back Air: Jigglypuff, Fox, Falco
Up Air: Fox
Down Air: Falco
Neutral B: Falco
Side B: Mario, Dr. Mario - Doc's does more damage and is longer, Mario's has less ending lag and is better for recover. I don't know which one is better.
Up B: Pikachu, Mewtwo?
Down B: Falco, Fox, Jigglypuff - Falco's leads into combos, Fox spikes, Jigglypuff's KOs if landed... still can't decide which one is best
Grab: Marth - Soooooo much range - Next to Samus, Link, and Young Link that is, but I don't consider tether grabs as useful
Pummel: ?
Up throw: Fox/Mewtwo - Fox's is really useful, but Mewtwo's is best on it's own for a KOs
Forward Throw: Peach?
Back Throw: Ness
Down Throw: Sheik
Jump: Falco
Roll: Mewtwo
Ledge Roll: ?
Air Dodge: Zelda?
Wavedash: Marth/Luigi - Marth can dash dance far better and still has a good wavedash, just not as long as Luigi's, but as acknowledged by Xx swift xX, he has no DD because of the low traction.
Ledge Attack: Bowser
100% Ledge Attack: Bowser
Floor Attack: ?
If there are any attacks I left out, please tell me.
