Mathematically speaking, power goes to Bowser or Ganondorf.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

^I think the only other character that could rival Bowser and Ganondorf's strength would be DK. After all, he was the strongest in SSB and he is the only character who can jump with a box or barrel. Nuff said.

You know, thats partly not true, because any character can beat any powerful character with the right strategy.

I'm not talking about who the best character is, I'm talking about who is specifically programmed to have the most brute power.

Technically, the first 2 are obvious.

My favorite is Falco- In my opinion he is the best technical fighter, not having to use brute force, but still highly capable of killing the opponent in seconds. If you catch your opponent off guard with a SH-spike when they're jumping, they're basically dead. Near the edge, anyways.

Falco jumps really high, and falls fast, making his spike hard to dodge. Unfortunately, his recovery s-u-c-k-s. Really bad.

In my opinion, he has the best projectile in the game, and it breaks the standard 'don't use projectiles up close' rule. SH the laser, L cancel the fall, and you can do anything you want to your poor stunned opponent.

His forward B move is okay, especially as a recovery. If the opponent is hit by it in mid-air, it acts as a spike. It's so amusing hearing your friend cuss at you, after killing them with this move. It also makes you look more professional, which is good for intimidation purposes. If you cancel the move by pressing B at the last second, you can mess with your opponent's head pretty easily. Falco's good when it comes to psychological warfare.

The reflector is good, obviously, because it deflects projectiles. It also acts as a very good launcher, especially when WDed.

Also, as soon as I unlocked Falco, I liked his fighting style, so I was able to play well without learning how to even use him properly. To alot of people, however, Falco is probably difficult to use.

I also like using Ness, Purin, and Mr. G&W, regardless of how badly I suck with them. ~_~;

Nah, I like Pichu, sure its easy to hate him, but its hard to play as him. This probably makes him the most fun to fight with for experienced players because he hurts himself, he weighs less than a friggin' feather, and he doesnt have the goo=d enough stats to save his life. My favorite is still roy,though, because having no projectiles is challenging and he has a wicked reach, but Pichu is a close second just for fun/challenge factor.

My best character is Falco. I just find that he is the best character that adapts to my style.

There are no "Worst" Characters. They're all awesome.

Shoot, I agree with that. The people who worked on the game chose the best characters out there.

Nah, the characters aren't all perfectly equal. Sheik is so easily abusable it's not funny.

Strongest overall is ganondorf.

Worst is bowser and pichu really. Bowser is too freaking slow, and pichu is just bad, although i do like him more than pikachu.

Falco's kinda cool. I don't use him very often normally when playing in multi player to catch my opponent offguard as they never see me using him. It's fun to aggitate Falco players by using their precious Falco against them. I normally use Link he's kinda slow but, good power and he's heavy. His recovery isn't bad when accompanied with ^B or you can use the Hookshot I'm just starting to incorporate that into my play. Link is deadly from both up-close and far away... Maybe not so much far away as his projectiles don't have killing potential but, they're all quite damaging. Fox's laser owns Falco's even when short-hopped [img]tongue.gif[/img] I've only had trouble with the short hop laser twice (as in only twice has it led to my downfall) And Fox is better is better than Falco. he's faster umm... he may not have a spike but, he's got that infinite combo (I can't pull it off.) Come to think of it Falco's probably overall better than Fox. I just prefer Fox's speed.

Link can destroy you, as long as you're not Luigi, Kirby, Jigglypuff, or Falco, 'cause Link can't jump worth bleep.

If you're playing against someone who's really mastered Fox, you pretty much need to be psychic to stay alive. The bugger's wicked fast.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
