If you don't greet your opponent at the start of every match, I don't even know what's wrong with you.

worse than that is din's fire putting her into helpless when she uses it in the air

I seriously do not understand this. This was not a thing in previous Smash games and it has no reason to be a thing in this one. Was firing off-stage Din's Fires really that good in previous games?

There's some other moves that don't seem like that should apply to. See also the DK Punch, all of Metaknight's specials now that he can't glide, and Robin's Nosferatu only when you successfully grab someone.

if a Robin gets a clutch nosferatu offstage, obviously he should be punished for his vulgarity.

I think I might maybe consider the possibility of potentially weighing the chance that I may give thought to naming Little Mac as an alt, or pocket selection. Maybe.

while pikachu is a very strong and fun character, mixing things up will help keep the game fresh :)

It's never been good until 4/Project M; the helplessness after it is a lovely hold over.

He seems well-equipped to handle the few characters Pikachu does not have a speed advantage against. Plus he's all spacing and good old-fashioned Fundamentals

Heres the tier list I just made.

Top tier. Everyone in this tier has all extremely good taunts:
Luigi, Wario, Ganondorf, King DeDeDe, Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Pac-Man

High tier. Everyone in this tier has solid taunts, or maybe one very notable taunt.
Mario, Peach, Jigglypuff, Rosalina, DK, G&W, Diddy, Toon Link, Kirby, Palutena, Ike, Duck Hunt, Olimar, Lucas, Ryu.

Mid tier. These taunts are ok.
Zelda, Meta Knight, Fox, Dr. Mario, Pikachu, Roy, ROB, Lucina

Lower mid. These are just kind of meh overall.
Bowser, Mega Man, Samus, Pit, Robin, Falco, Mii Fighters, all of them.


poo poo tier. These taunts are poo poo.
Bowser Jr., Sheik, Link, Little Mac, Charizard, Lucario, Greninja, Mewtwo

gently caress you tier. gently caress you! Thats what I say out loud when any of these characters taunt ever.
Yoshi, ZSS, Ness, Dark Pit, Marth, Sonic

Captain Falcon/Shulk tier. Its not fair to judge these in the same context.
Captain Falcon, Shulk.

Best overall taunts: Wario or WFT. Worst, probably Sheik. Cutest taunts go to Kirby. Sexiest taunts are Palutena's. Thanks for reading.

NOT okay!

This is what I do; glad to see a lot of my instinctual taunt game RE: porting with megaman during the freeze frame and ringing G&W's bell back and forth are also being repped by other players.

I think G&W and MM should be upped by one tier each in light of this new evidence, but otherwise I agree with most of that list.

Let's get a good stretch.

Stretch those shoulders

Let's stretch our legs.

Good advice!

My favorite part is when WFT just randomly throws out taunting phrases mid-smash attack.

Good posture begins with a firm base.

Let's put on our classics and have a little dance shall we?
If any of y'all dudes are near Pensacola, Florida, I run regular tournaments every Saturday. We have two bi-weeklies, a bar tournament, and a large conference center tournament for all the marbles. Our big events at the end of the month average around 50-60 players for Smash 4. We run also 64, Melee, PM and some 6-button fighters with an equivalent number of entrants. It's a cool time with cool folks. PM me if anyone wants details.

We have people travel out regularly from South MS, Alabama, Central Florida and other towns. You might could ride with weird strangers who play this dumb Nintendo game idk.

The best part about game theory is when indie devs tell him to shut up and they're wrong about something he flips out and blocks them from his channel before scrubbing the comment away.
