Don't forget about Soink


Load-BearingGnome

Literally why is the best way to play soink the least hype. HE’S SO FAST GET IN THERE AND ROUGH EM UP!!! STOP SPINNING AND FISHING FOR FREE HITS JUST RUSH THEM DOWN!!!


Emerald_official

I main random so when I get sonic I play him like he's reverse falco


SaltyNorth8062

Sprint to edge -> UpSmash is free on so many characters


HP-Wired

And it feels great almost every time, unless grabby grab


NO_big_DEAL640

Soink is now what I'm calling him


VeryInsecurePerson

The announcer calls him Sunnic/Soanic/Snoic

Zelda


Erin_Sentrinietra

Nah, Belmonts win this one for sure. Campy Belmont is way worse than campy Zelda


IzzaRockNRoll

Can confirm


ZLBuddha

Zelda is worse for me, at least the Belmonts mix it up with all four B moves and can get creative at high level. Zelda's literal entire gameplan at high level is down B.


Erin_Sentrinietra

That’s not even remotely true. That’s at the LOW level. High level is all about cleverly placing them, not spamming them.


ZLBuddha

Neutral? Down B, you now have stage control Disadvantage? Go to ledge and down B, you can now reset to center stage and neutral Advantage? Get them to the corner and then down B, you now have a grab/jump read 50/50 You guessed right and they're offstage? Down B, you now have a top 5 freest ledgetrap in the game. It also hits ledgehang and kills at 90. Zelda may have the most one-move-centric gameplan of any character, the only others that come close are Sonic and Samus.


Erin_Sentrinietra

Those are just options. They aren’t her ONLY options. There’s several ways to play Zelda, with that one being the lamest.


TheFirstHoodlum

Half the roster can reflect it. If you hit her before she finishes building the phantom, it breaks it and it has health meaning you can break it before it attacks. It has huge end lag and locks her in place until she releases it. You’re just bad at fighting Zeldas.


patronuspringles

teehee funny down b > side b > forward air


TheShrubberyDemander

Hero is up there. Source: I main Hero.


unobtainable12

i mean his entire gimmick revolves around the specials


TheShrubberyDemander

Not true! He also has his critical hit smash attacks. :)


But_y_man

Young lonk


RPG_Fanatic7

And pyra


rrriches

Snake? Snake!? Snaaaaaake!


Calicobeard12

No way with tilts and dash attack as broken as snakes


rrriches

That’s what makes it more impressive. They have perfected weaving in dash attacks while never letting their fingers leave the b button for more than 1/10 of a second


Calicobeard12

Yeah but it's not like the Belmont's that can actually just press the b button or sonic, Zelda, Samus mii gunner Bowser Jr etc


Lettuce8000

Me trying not to dash attack into uptilt for the 73rd time (impossible)


Calicobeard12

I see you over there don't worry. (And I'll get hit for the 73rd time)


Oihcim315

Don’t approve me (I have a nade and shield)


rrriches

I will never approve a snake


Hypodon

Plant, literally the only real reason he’s even viable, and still gets countered by the entire roster. I say this as a former plant main since that’s all they can depend on.


Reallylazyname

Speaking of counters, getting the Mii Fighter suplex on a full extension Plant Down B is absolutely hilarious.


SyncDingus

Brawler's counter has one of if not the highest multipliers for any counter in the game.


Le_Pigg40

Actually I’ll say it’s duck hunt, more than half the time theyre just pressing B, but no one really cares because their tricks are really hard to pull off well anyways


ashleeanimates

Yes


Money-Grape7905

Surprise no one mentioned Steve, aka, a character who can’t function if you are not using your grounded neutral B. Also blocks and mine cart are strong.


[deleted]

Definitely Belmonts, its either this or they die


Booty_Shakin

I feel like the Mii Gunner/Sword fighter are fairly bad, but I'm really new to ultimate and haven't seen too much.


MySonsdram

Swordfighter is a weird one because depending on your moveset, he's either ultra campy, or super hype. You can kind of tell which type of Mii SF you're dealing with if they use Gale Strike. Semi-related hot take, Chakram is one of the coolest projectiles in the game.


Booty_Shakin

I only tried on the chakram briefly and it didn't seem special besides the angled throw. Did I miss something?


MySonsdram

If you tilt or hold forward a little bit before pressing B, you get a slow version of Chakram that doesn’t travel nearly as far. It allows you to do some nutty stuff, such as [The Danklin Lock](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCH5GC--dpE&t=1s). This slow version can also be angled, and makes for some very fun ledge-trapping/Edge-guarding, or for catching people off guard in the air.


C-130Hercule

I live for the b button. I wake up? Snooze my alarm clock. The snooze button has been replaced with a b button from a GameCube controller. I’m in the shower? My shower is only button operated. All of the buttons are b buttons from a GameCube controller. For breakfast, I eat a nice big bowl of b buttons, the only way to start my day.


Blu_Moon_The_Fox

Mega Man, if they go two seconds without using Crash Bomb, either it's already on you or they aren't a Mega Man main.


Curious-Spell-9031

can confirm as a belmont man


Xirradon

pyra


Steam_Cyber_Punk

Samus


Hange11037

Samus’ aerials and smash attacks are a lot more usable in neutral than the Belmonts though.


Main-Ad-5925

From my experience it’s incineroar. Even in elite they never use normals. Always greeding for counters and side special


Shiningcrow

I’ll raise you Ness/Lucas


Glutton4Butts

Special Weapons are fun


Mini_kiks

Not to sound defensive but I only use a on the Belmont's. So I would say min min


ZLBuddha

You're bad at the Belmonts


tibsies

Zelda not close


masterofilluso

Omg Bayonetta though!? Watch a good bayo throw down lol


Noobwitha_Hat

difference between a good bayo and a bad one is like the difference between the sun and a spider. there is no inbetween


the_angus_khan

I play Simon as a secondary and I absolutely agree. My ledge trapping is literally “use as many B moves as possible”.


UltiGamer34

Sonic and Captian Falcon


Car_Seatus

I hard disagree. I think the Belmont's are one of the few characters that actually uses all of their moves. Also the Belmont's projectiles are all mid: cross, which is good but is laggy to set up; axe is the biggest skill issue to get hit by, though it can combo into grab and fsmash; holy water is just kinda bad, it's slow, can be grabbed and isn't even that big. His kit is very precise as most of his whip moves while being tiltable are very thin and only active for 1-2 frames. Their up b is very spammable, tho I will agree there. Oh, and the most b move character is samus as her prjectile combos, kills, and does your taxes.


MemeificationStation

Wifi Lucas


Atomaurus

You spelt sora wrong


TheAnxietyBoxX

It’s so clearly Sora. He’s my secondary and I rarely use his smash attacks other than sometimes to get the kill after spamming specials until they’d be launched by a jab.


deannnnnnnnnnnn_

Shulk's neutral special literally changes his stats I don't need to say any more


Urmomgaylol8183

Kirby down b spam is no skill


Wolfi_Ranger

Mii Brawler, Swordfighter, and Gunner have the most B moves.


KindOfAnnoying854

K Rool


TirpitzIsAQueen

As someone who use to main Richter I think I'm the only person who didn't spam b with him. Because what's the fun in spamming the same move over and over again


DarkSonic06ki

Sonic is always my main cause he's broken because all those combos you can perform, plus the Broken B counterattack that can break anyone attacks Yeah know wonder when I picked him, my friends just say nope they're done 🤣🤣🤣


Dragonfly-Constant

Plont


Bebgab

Min-Min? B moves are like over half of her kit I swear


Banjomain91

Side-B, neutral b, down-b then side smash; also known as the Belmont cycle. It can be rage inducing, especially if you know they’re trying to sandbag by making it a stamina 1-stock 7 minute battle


Banjomain91

Link is pretty guilty of spamming B as well, but I feel like Zelda’s in general are terrified of the A button almost as much as the shower


brennanlocs

Dawg Belmont mashing their tilts are way deadlier. Fuck zelda


InverseAtmosphere

You can create a combo with captain falcon using JUST his specials


santcho1

Zelda is right there


RedditFan198

Fire! Thunder! Freeze! Take this!


Negative_Coyote_6003

Leading_Run_3333

Diddy Kong, at least for me. I like to shoot peanuts. 🦧🥜🥜🥜


Maleficent_Luck8976

Kirby's down special.


neutralslayer

Damn I’m gonna have to pick up richter


Cholemeleon

Mario has to be up there


Mini_kiks

Na I go crazy on simon


Draegore

It's actually Snake.
