My Smashing
Rawr. As I'm sure a lot of you know, I'm an SSBM freak. I've been playing Super Smash Brothers since it came out for the N64, and have played ever since. On day one, I had always used Fox as a main character without realizing how popular he really was. After going to Melee, I of course used Fox only to realize how different he was. He was much faster, his wavedash made him even faster, and he could preform an infinite Waveshine which is cheap and unbeatable. Noticing that everyone was in love with fox, and he was the most popular character, I figured that he shouldn't be used by me any more since I hate playing mainstream characters. They don't get your name recognized.

So, after I decided I needed to make a change, I went to one of my favorite Nintendo characters. Yoshi. Yea, that's right, I was hauling love with a big bad dinosaur. Not only could he lob eggs at you which completely throw you off, but I can eat you and turn you into an egg

Anyways, having Yoshi as my main for quite some time made me rather bored of him. Naturally, I would find a secondary character to play. This character was none other than Link. Reason being is because he's a very popular character amongst the Nintendo circuit, but not so popular in the SSB world. Being quite low on the tier list, I decided to play as him. He is one of the characters that symbolizes Nintendo, so I thought he would be a prime character for me. With a huge amount of projectiles, and a wonderful FAir, I could easily destroy my opponent. Although his wavedash is rendered useless, if you tap the joystick twice in a direction, his speed is upgraded immensly.
So there you have it! My two most active characters are Yoshi, with a secondary of Link. Although I've been playing Link more, my Yoshi is much better making him my prime. What are your favorite characters?
