    The roster in the latest Smash Bros. is humongous, so there are a lot of characters to pick from. I'm going with Zero Suit Samus as my main for now. I liked how she played in Brawl, and like the improvements they made to her now that she's not tethered to another character via Final Smash. How about you all?

    I don't have a "main" because I lack the required skills to become highly profficient with one particular character, but I tend to favor Captain Falcon/Ganondorf (depending on who I'm facing). I really like their movesets (which is basically the same, though faster/slower).

    After spending more time with the game I've been really digging Zero Suit Samus, which is cool since I really didn't like her in Brawl. Bowser Jr. is also super super cool (I play as Iggy :D )

    I was planing on maining Captain Falcon as usual but I tried out Greninja and he's super fun to play. I'm getting a ~70% win rate with him in For Glory so he's doing pretty well for me.

    @likeametaphor : I played a bunch of matches against a guy named "Ryan" playing ROB and Bowser last night. I was a "Vince" playing Greninja and Captain Falcon. Was that you? If so, hit me up bro.

    I didn't really have a favorite, but I think I was best with Bowser for some odd reason.

    Ganondorf, all day, every day.
    Bowser and Fem Robin are honorary mentions.

    I'm a bit disappointed by how slow some of the characters feel now. I don't remember Link ever being this slow and heavy. I guess they had to balance out how powerful his attacks are now... but still... so heavy.. Zero Suit Samus is my go to character. Comboing her down throw with her up B when the opponent is near 100% is always fatal. She's really fun with those jet heels. Sonic is surprisingly pretty fun too . His up B is ridiculous. You can easily spike people either with the spring or air kick someone towards the bottom of the stage and still recover, although I get a little cocky with him and mostly end up suiciding a lot because of how fast he can be with his move speed and attacks. I really want to get good with Greninja, but I haven't really played him enough to get everything down yet. Kirby is my mess around character and I only use him to make people/friends upset..

    Really digging Wii-Fit Trainer. Fast enough to get around but not to fast to lose control. Special attacks aren't that great but hitting some one who is trying to recover back on to the stage only to hit them in the face with the volleyball (it think that's what it is, she spikes it like it was one) is pretty funny.

    Also Yoga looking smash attacks.

    Charizard for sure. I love what a tank the dude is. Rock Smash protects you from almost everything and it doesn't take much % to get a knock out with Flare Blitz. I also love his back air (tail whip).

    Dr. Mario with his black doctor jacket. The look he gives you with that jacket on makes him want to prescribe you some PAIN!!!

    My back ups have been Lucina, Robin and Zero Suit Samus.

    I've barely played the game, but I'm a big fan of Lemmy (The real version of Bowser Jr). He doesn't have a lot of powerful hits, but his rapid-fire strikes can be pretty effective at building up your opponent's percentage.

    This was actually really hard. I'm using such a wide variety of characters in this game because I honestly feel like they've perfected nearly every character. Diddy, Ness, Sheik, Duck Hunt, Cpt. Falcon, Zelda, Robin, Shulk, and Peach are all characters I switch back and forth from, but I'm almost unstoppable with Ness because I have the PK Thunder Self-Projectile down to a science. It's an insane threat to others, and no other Ness I've played against online (I've played about 500 online matches so far) has even got the Thunder projectile itself down. You gotta make them think that you rely on the self-projecting and range, then they get in close and surprise them with a knowledge of his close-up moves.

    But Diddy's air game is just fantastic. I love how fast and snappy his air moves are and he's such a tricky character to play against that I feel like I piss people off sometimes.

    Other than that, and despite the ridiculous amount of time I spend with this game, I still haven't really tried a lot of the characters. I know that Bowser is high on my list of characters to try out next.

    Rosalina, she will fuck your shit up. After that, Luma will rip your throat out and drink your blood. Straight up murder.

    Bowser Jr. while choosing one of the Koopa Kids, is my main, cause that's too good. Past games I played mainly Ness and Ice Climbers(RIP). Ness is still Ness and I'm not to keen on any of the characters from the past games(since I know thier deals). Little Mac seems fun and Lucnia has a sword. But BJ is silly, fun, and slightly more unorthodox than a lot of the others, which is cool. And you can play as the Larry Koopa.

    Bowser Jr just because I find him the most fun to play and I like running everyone over in a flower car.

    I'll play as anyone and everyone though. I only play Smash with my friends and sister & none of us are very good at it so I don't care about getting great with a particular character - I do seem to really suck at being Ike and Marth though.

    I don't own the game, but I played at a friends house the other day and felt right at home playing Kirby. He's pretty simple but he's been my go-to for the past 15 years or so.

    I really like Rosalina and Luma and I really like Little Mac. Little Mac seems a bit OP though.
