i don't like the people there. my user name being ripped is just a tiny detail, and i really don't mind. besides, i don't need to post, lurking is fun enough.

I have a question: Why does everyone say Ike and to a certain extent Wolf do best in laggy battles? I keep thinking that since lag effects both players, wouldn't Ike/Wolf players suffer from having input lag?
because ike already has lag, he is easier to control in more lag.
wolf is a camper. he is alot more controlling and responsive in lag.

After some fun battling I realized I do very well with Diddy. Maybe even better than Olimar. So I will be doing a testing phase now. I will switch between Diddy and Olimar during the week and see if it lowers/increases my win rate when using Diddy. If I win more matches with Diddy then I will switch Diddy as my main and use Olimar as my second.
are you serious? meh, its not any reason for me not to join the boards.. i just don't like the fact that my name twas ripped.
Oh, God, say it isn't so! Olimar is the undefeatable one! =O
As much as I dislike lag, it never seems to fit very heavily into the outcome of my battles. Even when there's a whole lot of it.
I'm either one of those people, or I need to battle a wider variety.
Okay, kinda the opposite of what I thought would happened with a character already having attack lag and such.
I believe both can be used.
Also I agree with Surgo, I am loathe at the idea of anyone taking my online name (which is harder to avoid because mine is 100% unoriginal) and I'm pleased to have it at most major/important gaming sites of any worth (to me).

Haha I never have to worry about someone taking the name Calciphoce.
Also I've seen Snake used a lot in lag which is weird.

StrangerDanger was taken on Gamebattles which SUCKED.
but more on topic, now that i've beaten boss battles with every char, what are your best times?
my best times are 1:52 with DK, 2:10 with IC's, and 2:31 with Bowser. On Intense though, my record is 5:32 with Charizard.

Olimar is a beast. 8) I just treat RBY Pikmin all the same as otherwise the micromanagement becomes too much. :P They basically share range/knockback on non-Throws (Blue has the strongest Throws) so the differences are mostly negligable. Just have to watch for your Purples, and toss Whites on your opponent at opportune moments.
I wouldn't exactly call Dedede "no in general" either, Waddle Dees block projectiles and he has a significant range advantage against TL. Snake I'm not so confident about, but he's a good character in general so I'm sure he's not helpless or anything.
It's not about having multiple jumps, it's about your horizontal aerial mobility where MK lacks. You can float low and avoid Blaster spam or whatever, but try that against TL and you're going to get Boomeranged in the face or eat a UAir. MK can expect to accumulate some damage on his quest to close in, and TL is more mobile in general too. Mach Tornado at least eats Arrows/'Rangs, but not Bombs.
Well, if you're set on keeping all your Hammers... But if not, all-clear 100man is a prime choice for Hammering. It's annoying, tedious, and you don't get anything for doing it. Don't hammer the Classic/All-Star clear ones, though, you need to beat it with everyone to get their trophies anyway. ;/

im testing the usability of dash-canceled-upsmashes...
pikachu, fox, squirtle, and shiek seem to have the best so far.

Actually I recommend hammering the "complete all star with everyone" challenge that gives you the Kyle Hyde trophy. Because then you can co-op all star and get every FS trophy. Thus completing the get every FS trophy one.
Too bad I wasted my last hammer -_-
Can you actually save up the golden hammer? If so then damn, why didn't I know that...though I didn't use up every last one.
Jigglypuff is pretty good at that one. I got close with Fox, but Jiggly IMO is just plain old easier. Kirby might be better, but the idea is to float through the level usually. (With fox, use the laser to shoot at the targets)
I used Metaknight to beat all of the speed Target-breaking challenges.
Surgo, for the 15 minute Brawl, why not use Pit and just spam wings of Icarus going from side to side? (If you mean it in a "15 minutes wasted" way though, yeah, I agree, fuck that)

Even easier, do Co-op with two Lucarios.

its what I did
I've got a few on 100-Man so far. It's definitely going to be the hardest one. I think like 5 or something. I just want to be able to brag about keeping all hammers.

I beat basically all the target test challenges with Jigglypuff. Being able to fly around so easily makes everything go faster. Meta Knight's probably similar like that.
I loathe it when I find that 'Hustino' is taken somewhere I go, though, oddly, that has happened only once.
I hammered both the 'Beat 100-man Brawl with everyone' and 'Beat 15-minute Brawl' because, like Surgo said, fuck that. Those are way too tedious and aggravating to bother with.
After a lot more playing, it seems like my mains have become completely different than I was expecting. Ike's become more of a secondary with R.O.B. as my main. And after practicing with Zelda all week, I'm getting as good with her as I am with R.O.B and she could actually end up being my best. Me and my friends spent 6 hours playing today and I was her about 4/5 of the time and did really well, especially against one of my friends who is basically the best in our group at Smash.
So, speaking of Zelda, does anyone have any suggestions concerning her, to see if there's anything I could try out to add to my game?

DWC, and I were fucking around with all the characters for a few hours...
Olimar is my main of course
Diddy is my secondary
Now during the thing we used several other characters... Ike is awesome and I will be using him in the future... Wario is pretty cool as well. Bowser is deadly this game and I am shocked he isnt used more...
If you get one stock higher than your opponent you can simply Bowserside for victory... it is really fun to do.
