Scariest Character to face during a Sudden Death:: EDITED

Similar to the characters you hate most thread, but focusing more on who's best in a Sudden Death.

Let's say you're playing as Mario, an average character, and find yourself in a Sudden Death match with the most intimidating character. Who is that character?

For me it's Snake. Sometimes he seems like a slow character but his melee moves are surprisingly quick, which I had to learn the hard way when getting close to him during a SD. And not to mention it's effin' scary having to go near him after he's planted mines everywhere, throwing grenades left and right, and probably has a seeking missile aimed for your face. :dizzy:

So who do you never want to have to face in a Sudden Death match?

P.S. Just ignore this thread if someone made the exact same discussion somewhere.


.::EDIT::. Snake has indeed been mentioned the most, followed by Samus and DDD in a tie, and MK, Lucario, and Pikachu also tying in as the 3rd scariest characters to face in a SD.

This is hardly an official/accurate tally and was just based off of how many times someone felt they needed to mention a character, with Snake being mentioned the most by different people from here to comment #29.

So if you ever should find yourself in an unfortunate Sudden Death match with a Snake, Samus, and DDD, just suicide. Or run away and hope they blow each other up.

Snake is nice because his dash attack kills but I'd have to say samus is best she has lots of killer projectiles.

I can agree with Samus definitely, but not so much Zelda. Her one projectile attack is fairly easy to dodge.

DDD's minions are quite scary, and almost futile if the SD begins with you standing right next to him.

Snake, Samus, and DDD are definitely some of the worst.

Luigi can be scary with his high priority and little lag.
Of course MK is a problem (Tornado shouldn't KO)
Marth if you have no projectiles (quick counter or dolphin slash)
Wolf and his relentless f-smash/d-smash
Not to mention the always annoying Pikachu
Just naming a few that haven't been mentioned...

However, these fears can be meaningless if your facing a sub-par opponent. Any character can be scary in the right hands.
I've been helpless to a good Yoshi... not that Yoshi is bad...

Yes MK has the advantage that if he hits with the last frame of the tornado it ko's.

Ike: Being placed right next to him at the start is horrible due to his Quick Draw move.
Ness/Lucas: Provided that you can't reflect (or absorb) projectiles, there PK Thunder moves can instant K.O. (Ness's is more likely though)

Captain Falcon. His Falcon Kick surprises me a lot in Sudden Deaths.
Snake. His dash attack is so fast; you even have to dodge before he does it.
Samus. This bulky armor has a lot of projectiles up her sleeve.
Meta Knight. His attacks are too fast and most are virtually lag less.
Wolf. His f-smash kills. His d-smash hunts.
Link. He keeps chucking whatever projectiles he can.

Ike bothers me, as does Pikachu.

DDD, Snake, and the dreaded MK.
And... Have you ever tried a raptor boost in a SD? Most people don't see it coming the very first second,(including me) and it KO's every time.

It's Snake. I can't think of a single attack or combo that he has that wouldn't kill you at %300.

Zelda. I had a streak of between 8-11 Sudden Death wins in a row last summer on Wifi and Zelda killed it. Her Disappearing/Reapearing move got me off gaurd.

Toon Link got me one other time as well with a projectile but I forgot what it was. (Bomb?)

I've never had to go up against Samus in SD but I could imagine that being a pain. Snake as well.

Pit + SD + wifi lag + FD = Death by arrows.

Yet another reason why I no longer play against anyone on wifi, and rarely with friends on wifi....

Well, I hardly lose at Sudden Death (of course I never face any GOOD opponents due to absense of WiFi), but I hate facing Snake, Marth, and D3 in it.

Snake is definitely hard, but I have trouble with Kirby for some reason :( Probably because he's like the only person I ever go to SD with lol.

Honestly I'll say the 3 Characters that I really dont like to Fight in the Sundden Death and explain Why:

1. Meta Knight - He is so FAST and he can kill you with a simple and Quick Tilt or the useful Down-Smash.

2. Bowser - Yeah... He is so SLOW... But His Side-B is very Useful, He can dodge your attack and use his Flight Slam (Side-B).

3. Wolf - His Amazing Ground Attacks is very useful and His B-air is Deadly.

He can only have 1 land mine 1 detonator at once, that is not that hard

and idk, maybe luigi or lucas
luigi because his attacks come out quick, and lucas because PK fire could **** you up at 300%
