Bacon&Eggs
Smash Cadet
So I am a falcon main and I am sick and tired of getting ****ed up by every character in the cast ever, so I set out on a grand quest to find a new main as I realized that I actually hate stupid ass idiot child falcon.
I started by purging all my preconceptions about all the characters--how they "should" be played, what their position was in the tier list, etc. and tried to focus solely on what *felt right.* I narrowed it down to the space animals, Mario, and... Pichu. And for some reason, Pichu consistently felt the most *right* out of all those guys!
Since then I have almost exclusively been playing Pichu in friendlies and have seen a lot of success. There is something about the rat that is just too fun to pass up! At times I can even go toe-to-toe against my friend who is the second best player in my region (Hawaii) whereas I would have to be having a particularly "good day" to be doing so with stupid ****head Falcon.
From this experience I have drawn two conclusions:
1. Pichu is definitely not the worst or second worst character in the game
2. Captain Falcon is probably actually the worst or second worst character in the game
Anyway, despite the huge amount of fun I have had with the rat, Pichu obviously has some pretty awful flaws. Dying in like 2 hits sucks, damaging yourself blows, and having no reliable kill moves swallows. I lose to a lot of noobs because I just don't know how to answer some things. Luigi can just wd fsmash me for some reason and 1 of Ganon's jabs are worth like 50 of my up airs. Even the great idiot himself, captain falcon, is able to kill me in like 2 dthrow knees! And despite my best efforts, I am STILL clueless on how to deal with Falco lasers!
Right now I am ranked third in my region but I am probably gonna get demoted super hard next time around due to an enormous string of horrible tournament results (which I blame completely on dumb ****face falcon). It has been a dream of mine since I was a wee fifteen years old to become the best in Hawaii, and I'm not sure if Pichu is the best character to do this with. Can I even realistically go for top 10 with him???
So I come to you, Pichu boards. Are there ANY successful dedicated Pichu mains? Do you think it is worth the effort to get better with Pichu, or should I just play Fox jajaja. Thanks for any input you all may have!
