[infomon]

WTFLMAOLOLOLHE'SNOTEVENINTHEGAMELOLOL!!!1!1

D:

 

[Exia 00]

Ya, its mewtwo. It cant be megaman cause the description didnt say he's better than metaknight xD

 

[cheetacuz007]

Lucario easily

 

[Frown]

I think it's Koffing.

If not, it's Lucario.

 

[Zinc Elemental]

Yeah, sounds a lot like Lucario now...

 

[Zolga Owns]

90% sure its Lucario

 

[betterthanbonds9]

edit: #19 is lucario

I'm just gonna leave this here

Spoiler

from 2 weeks ago

 

[Megavitamins]

Anybody think this sounds alot like lucario?

 

[Doctor X]

Well... seeing as he said "Underdog," and the player UndrDog is *the* Pit expert in the back room...

Lucario is actually a dog, though, and the "lack of recovery options" thing leads me to say Lucario over Pit...

**** you, Panda, for not making this perfectly obvious!!!!

 

[Hype]

19 is yoshi

 

[TwinkleToes]

There's no chance it's Sonic anymore.

 

[kupo15]

No chance its pit either

 

[litlwing]

its mewcario

 

[The Halloween Captain]

Wait a minute - Lag AFTER some of his best attacks? Lucario doesn't have lag AFTER his attacks, all his lag comes BEFORE the attack.

EDIT: DON'T BE THROWN OFF BY THE TERM "UNDERDOG." The hint could practically refer to Ike now.

 

[Nintendo_lord]

I guess Marth again.

 

[Adapt]

Can't be Zamus anymore

her best KO moves are fair and bair, and they aren't very laggy at all
F-B has startup lag but very little ending lag

I'll go with my original choice of Lucario, followed by peach

 

[The Halloween Captain]

I now think the character is Olimar. His lag comes after his attacks, for one, and he has a terrible recovery. I could go over every reason why he matches the hint, but he just seems like a good fit.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Olimar has already been discussed, I think. I thought it was Lucario all the way through the hint until the part about lag. Lucario has no, or next to no, cooldown lag on his K.O. attacks. All of the lag comes BEFORE.

I'm actually uncertain of whom the next character might be. It could be WARIO, or maybe (Wario) Mario's cousin (Wario), or Luigi's cousin (Wario). It might even be some fat guy (Wario).
Nah, scratch that, it's probably someone like Wario (Wario).

 

[kupo15]

Wario has a lot of recovery options though

 

[akkon888]

It's Ike.

Or Luke.

-Ter

It shouldn't be Ike, he rocks at KO's with his nair, fair, usmash and fsmash, and eruption has incredible vertical power. It may be Yoshi, beginners have a tough time dealing with the "turn into egg" special, not knowing how to stop it, and falling off edges carelessly.

 

[Steeler]

samuraipanda...

mindgame expert?

 

[Mmac]

It's Pokemon Trainer! My Money is on it!

 

[Hit973]

It's A Trap!

 

[NinjaFoxX]

It's A Trap!

its Sheik,CONFIRMED

 

[Devil7]

I vote ike and the awesome lag of his moves. not to mention the ability to turn the game around with a 1 hit combo.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

it's geno duuuhh

That is correct.

-Ter

 

[The Halloween Captain]

Why is it that after Samurai Panda made the hint "Too Easy," I no longer have any idea who the character could be? And whose been complaining to him that the hint was too hard, anyway?

 

[infomon]

I thought it was Lucario all the way through the hint until the part about lag. Lucario has no, or next to no, cooldown lag on his K.O. attacks. All of the lag comes BEFORE.

Lucario's smashes do have more start-up lag than ending lag. But at high-level play, Lucario will more often get hit at the ending of the attack; even while the hitbox is outstretched! Why? Because a smart Lucario's not using the smashes while the opponent is close enough to get near him during the start-up. It's when the attack's hitbox is near the opponent, that Lucario is in danger; when the tip gets dodged, and Lucario gets punished while his paws are lingering outstretched. Lucario only gets saved by the hitboxes being large and long-lasting; unfortunately, they're only single-hit, so any clashing with them (by shield or an attack) and you can run in safely to punish.

It may be Yoshi, beginners have a tough time dealing with the "turn into egg" special

SamuraiPanda has established that beginners are not in question here. We're looking at how the characters do when they're played by pros, against pros.

It's Pokemon Trainer! My Money is on it!

Sweeeet!!

 

[NxC]

I remove my comment about it being Pit or Sonic, and any connections to consuming my jacket. Now I really have no idea who it is, because all the previous candidates were just violated by this 'lag' business. o_O;

EDIT: I'm kindasortaleaningtowards Yoshi on this one. =/ Never played the character before, so I don't know how 'fun' he can be, but the lack of recovery options and the dedication by the community seem to be powerful hints.

 

[infomon]

Pfft. You're gonna eat that jacket and you're gonna like it!

 

[darkNES386]

I'm glad the new hint is there. It's no longer Sonic. I want Sonic to be like number 30 or something.

 

[MdrnDayMercutio]

It's either Olimar or Lucario, if you ask me.

 

[Lord Aiku]

It's definitely Lucario.

 

[Snail]

It's either Olimar or Lucario, if you ask me.

Olimar's crappy recovery part fits, but there's no big lag on smash attacks. So yeah. :/

 

[popsofctown]

It's not Lucario. The hint says most expert/pro players aren't maining this character. Lucario is one of the lowest tier characters that pro's and experts play. Haven't we all heard of Azen??!?!? And there's others like him.

Plus, his smashes are more prelag than after lag, as someone said before.

I think it's either Sheik or Yoshi... both definitely create massive aerial pressure. It's probably Yoshi rather than Sheik, because Sheik does have two options for recovery a lot of the time. Sometimes she chains, sometimes she vanishes.

Well, on the other hand, the clue about people that use the character are good with the character leans towards Sheik. The way i hear it, a lot of goofballs and poor smashers use Yoshi. I've never seen anyone play Sheik without solid mastery of the character.

The fun2play reputation points more towards Yoshi...

It's pretty close here.

 

[ShadowLink84]

its not Sonic then because he has options when recovering.

 

[Mmac]

I don't think it's Yoshi. His recovery options is only limited when he doesn't have his Double Jump.

I still think it's Pokemon Trainer, All 3 of the Pokemon fit the bill
