Who is right-handed and who is left-handed and who is ambidextrous? If tomorrow you started playing on a mirrored controller pad, how long do you think it would take for you to get as good as you are on a normal controller?

I'm right handed

If we're talking about my normal controller that I use (Classic Controller ._.) I think adapting to a mirrored one would be super easy since my setup is basically symmetrical.
Though if it was an actual N64 stick...I'm not so sure, considering it would be like playing normally with switched hands. I think I could adapt okay to that. Unless the analog stick was mirrored too, then o_o

The hori pad has two Z buttons, and i'm trying to use the one behind the R-button cause I hurt my left index finger. My hands get confused now. Shield drop down-airs are like the last thing i need to get consistent (they're harder than shield drop up-airs for some reason?)

Left-handed! And I think it would take a while to get used to a mirror'd controller pad seeing as we've been used to the sticks being to the left and buttons on the right as the default for every controller. :v

ive actually always wondered what smash would be like if i had a mirrored controller. i feel like i would have more control over the stick but less control of the buttons (my left hand is ******** when it comes to doing anything)

Right handed, an inverted controller would take forever to get used to it seems like

In general, Left.
If you judge it by handwriting, neither.
I am somewhat ambidextrous otherwise. My left side is generally stronger. My right side has better coordination.

This post might be a bit confusing
