So, I guess its cool now to put M2K quotes in your sigs? LMAO Attention *****!!! </3 ADHD =)Yoshi has a ****ty shield, diddy ***** it!!!
All yoshi can do is cg, if diddy spaces his bananas well not to get grabbed and doesn't approach recklessly I think this matchup is pretty near-impossible.
the man speaks the truthThis match-up really isn't all that difficult, and I've played with the best Diddy in Florida. Sticking to the air works wonders, and even though Yoshi may get grabbed a lot he won't really be affected by the Bananas. Oh, and Yoshi lives to like 180% against Diddy with good DI. Seriously.
Don't forget Yoshi's DACIT! =O
Completely, 100%-ly true. This matchup sucks for Yoshi because it seems like anything we try to do, Diddy can do better and twice as fast.If you think the match up is easy then your not playing good diddys. There is no way this match up is easy.
If your living against a diddy over 180% then that diddy is not good and need to work on KOing. Diddy just need to land a Fair or a Fsmash and even somtime a Dsmash. Diddy has a lot easier time landing KOs than Yoshi. His KO moves are faster. Yoshi is horrible at KOing in general. His only real KO moves are his Fsmash and Uair and sometime Usmash(if you haven't decayed it already)I really don't see what the problem is, though. Since Yoshi should almost always be in the air in this match-up, then he really isn't affected by Bananas. Like I said before, though, he IS succeptable to Diddy's throws, but thankfully they don't pose much of a threat as long as you DI correctly.
Now, for kill options, Yoshi has Diddy beat. Diddy shouldn't EVER kill Yoshi until Yoshi is at like 180%. Not even the spike poses much of a problem (I survived it at 140%). Meanwhile, Yoshi can kill Diddy at around 120% with his u-air, Yoshi Bomb, and (if Yoshi is lucky) f-smash. Diddy's lack of early kill options really hurts him in this match-up.
I'm fine on DIing dude. The only main problem I have is that you're saying Dsmash won't kill. Plus, you missed my point when I said that Diddy can setup his killing moves easier than Yoshi can.It's possible for Yoshi to survive Diddy's fresh un-charged d-smash at the edge at 160%. Not to mention that his f-smash can be SDI'ed out of. Diddy's main killer in this match-up is his f-air, but even that won't kill until a high percentage, and it would most likely be decayed, too. Are you guys sure that you are DI'ing correctly?
While I recognize that possibility exists, it does not make the implications from those statements less palpable. Besides, the issue is not with the fact that people may think it's in Yoshi's favor, but that the advice offered to push the margin of favor into Yoshi's column (i.e. stay in the air) begets a serious lack of depth that people generally have with this match-up.I don't think anybody has ever said anything close to "easy money" or "in Yoshi's favor."
The comments have ranged from "not that hard" and "annoying" at best to "f*ck this matchup" at worst.
I'm pretty sure everyone recognizes that Diddy is a good character and gives Yoshi a hard time; you're probably reading in between the lines too much.
