They better not pull a Fox in trying to nerf Sheik and end up making her better... |

Hmm... I just thought of a new mini-game we can play in the Stats Topic
(in addition to things like TRUE OR FALSE and the traditional
prediction percentage guesses before matches). It's called "Quick
Without Thinking." Basically, one of us posts a question, and everyone
else posts the shortest possible response in a very timely manner. No
analyses or explanations. Just a few seconds to process the question
and a few key punches. Alright, let's give it a try. QUICK WITHOUT THINKING: What does Mega Man X score on Star Ocean? --- Board 8: Where Wii treat each other right. |

Sheik is actually one of the top characters in SSBM, with Fox right behind her. --- * Is Dranze * |

How good is Bowser? Considering his popularity around these parts, he must be at least high-tier. --- Board 8: Where Wii treat each other right. |

Bowser is a bloody beast. I'm pretty good with him in Smash Bros too. --- WWEGSB Hardcore Legend Masa JUST LIKE UR MOM LOLO AND URS TO LALA-Tombolo |
MarioSuperstar | Posted 7/4/2006 8:44:04 PM | message detail |
Bowser's actually quite near the bottom. Top 3 (in America) are Sheik, Fox, and Marth. --- * Is Dranze * |

His down throw move is a beast. >_> --- Explicit Content I used to be Asian, but I didn't get good enough grades so my parents beat it out of me. - snalien |

Apro's Half-Assed Analysis (AHAA) (I missed AHAA for today's match due to a spur-of-the-moment trip to Santa Barbara for the weekend). Anyhoo, coming up we have a series based off an energy-sucking jellyfish-like creature and a sexy bounty hunter named Samus versus one based off a pink puffball. *Kirby sucks in Samus and steal's her charge shot* *Kirby taunts in temporary victory* *Kirby goes 'Oh ****' as he loses Samus's power* *Samus blasts Kirby with a super missile* In short: Metroid SFFs Kirby, reeling in 60% of the vote against an otherwise semi-powerful franchise. --- For the sake of simplicity, I'm going to refer to Gordon Freeman versus Tanner as Schrodinger's Match. -Phoenix Flattener |

Bowser is garbage. Ganon and Samus > all IMO I like playing with Kirby too, but he was much better in SSB. Pika and Ice Climbers are also fun. --- Moltar Status: Excited, the Contest is here at last! Pokemon vs. Star Ocean - Bracket: Pokemon - Vote: Pokemon (2/2) |

I'm a tier loser. Fox is my main (and always has been, really), but I also use Marth and Sheik on occasions. --- * Is Dranze * |

Actually, if you're playing against anyone halfway decent, Bowser is terrible. --- Explicit Content I used to be Asian, but I didn't get good enough grades so my parents beat it out of me. - snalien |

longbladeofhiko | Posted 7/4/2006 8:49:34 PM | message detail |
Not with me. I've whooped people that have had Goldberg like winning streaks with Bowser. Although I prefer Samus too m'self. --- WWEGSB Hardcore Legend Masa JUST LIKE UR MOM LOLO AND URS TO LALA-Tombolo |
HaRRicH | Posted 7/4/2006 8:50:53 PM | message detail |
I hate tiers. I pick people I kickass with. Agreed...but some characters are much easier to kick ass with than others. Give me Sheik and Ganon with a side of Ice Climbers, and I'm fine. --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |
MarioSuperstar | Posted 7/4/2006 8:51:11 PM | message detail |
Tiers don't really matter though, it's all about the player. But some
character's meta-games are higher than others. Some characters have
easier match-ups than others. --- * Is Dranze * |
KamikazePotato | Posted 7/4/2006 8:51:46 PM | message detail |
Bowser is terrible. I use Captain Falcon as my main. --- Angsty_Lou: Everything has a sexual connotation if you just look long and hard enough. Theo72: U SED LONG AND HARD LOL |

This poll is going to get 109,000 votes. Pokemon/Star Ocean, DAMMIT Yo, Ceej, if you're reading this, you can go on ahead and slide the poll back to the crappy position for my tiebreaker's sake. Yeah, that'd be fine. |

I'm guessing 77% prediction percentage for Pokemon. I have a feeling
that the only people that even had a second thought about his match are
board regulars and Square fanboys. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

Agreed...but some characters are much easier to kick ass with than
others. Give me Sheik and Ganon with a side of Ice Climbers, and I'm
fine. Oh I'm down with that. Ice Climbers are hard as hell to master though. --- WWEGSB Hardcore Legend Masa JUST LIKE UR MOM LOLO AND URS TO LALA-Tombolo |
