Hello Ike players. While there is a thread on Ike's stage selection, I have made a stage selection thread on all characters, and would like to continue this with Ike. This thread is intended to inform Ike players on what stages they should go to, as to avoid picking the wrong stage that could cost them the game. What are our ideal stages for Ike? For reference, here is the usual stage selection for tournaments. I will add a general consensus for each stage as we go.
Color checklist:
Green- This is a stage that Ike can depend on and will almost always be a good stage choice for optimal play.
Yellow- This is a stage that is neutral for Ike but it can sometimes benefit him depending on the matchup.
White- This is a stage is absolutely neutral for Ike. You are most likely banning this stage because it is your opponent's best stage. (Or, it is the filler color for stages not fully discussed yet.)
Orange- This stage is sometimes bad for Ike but can be neutral depending on the matchup. You may want to ban these stages.
Red- This stage is bad for Ike in most to all matchups, and it is reccomended that you ban these stages.
Stagelist:
Starter:
Battlefield/Miiverse
Final Destination
Smashville
Starter or CounterPick (usually starter):
Town and City
Lylat Cruise
CounterPick:
Dreamland 64
Duck Hunt
CounterPick or Banned (usually banned):
Delfino
Halberd
Castle Seige
I have a poll created for which stage we will discuss first. The choices you have currently are Battlefield, Smashville, and Final Destination since they are practically guranteed to be starter stages. For the next week, feel free to talk about your opinion on any of the legal stages before we decide which starter stage we will discuss. Enjoy the discussion folks!
