I just wondered out of interest, whether there was any relation to what other characters, bowser players like playing as, who knows, bowser players may all have similar likes in character playstyles. Anyways post who else you like playing as and we'll see if there's any link.

Personally, after bowser, I like playing as Mario, Falco and Gannondorf (although I do play as a wide variety of others).

Howsabout you?

Other than Bowser I play as Mario, Luigi, and Captain Falcon (mostly just for the funs).

I swear it's a coincidence that almost all the characters that I'm best with come from the mushroom kingdom... seriously.

Looking for an actual link in who I play as; Bowser, Mario, and Luigi all take low-ish technical skill and a heavier mental game. Also, mustaches and kuteness are spiffy.

I don't main Bowser... he's like my 6th best character.
I have a friend who mains Bowser, he can play a pretty good Gannondorf. In fact he does well with the heavier characters.

Right now I main falco and bowser(kind of on and off with both) and then I play young link and pichu. After i play falco, and then switch to bowser, im normally alot faster and better with bowset.

WELL, I think maybe young Link might be a good secondary for a Bowser player if you happen to have some compulsive/ritualistic purist rule where you can like only use low tiers. Why? Because young Link counters Puff (Bowser counter) counters G&A (Bowser counter?) goes even with young Link obviously (Bowser counter) has the slight advantage over Adult Link (Bowser counter) . . . but does bad against Sheik too (except not AS horrendous as Bowser)

think about it. discuss.

Isn't everybody a Bowser counter?
I actually use Ganon a lot in friendlys cause he's the frickin triforce of POWER! and my dirty secret is I also really enjoy using Ness. I know its sad but the little asian boy is fun to use.

Luigi is the greatness, along with Ganon

I'll use Falco for a bit, and then I remember that his recovery makes me want to die D':

I secondary Young Link, DK, and G&W, mostly. I mess around with a few other characters, but those are the ones I feel most comfortable with in tournaments.

My order probably goes Bowser -> Pikachu -> Yoshi -> Marth.

Pikachu was originaly my main and the character I learned the game with. Only reason I stopped playing him was because everyone started to call him cheap. Because of me my friends will forever call pikachu, pikaschlong :(

But I'm glad I have bowser now. Even though he's not soft, yellow, and I would not want him sitting in my lap he's still uber cute

I'm in the ever confusing phase of trying to choose a secondary. I have no idea who to pick at all, however it seems that the next in line to Bowser is Ganondorf.

I sort of second Marth but it's becoming more of a joint main now. They're both good edgeguarders.
