Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's Balance Isn't A Concern For Masahiro Sakurai

The balance is solid, but one thing I can say is that all of the top characters have one or more of the following:

fast recovery on their moves (block, landing, etc)
good range
good back dash
quick movement
moves that cover the screen

if you character doesnt have one of these, you wont be able to compete with the obvious top characters. I play elite smash majority of the time with Game and Watch, and here's the list of characters that I run into the most.

Chrom, Cloud, Roy, Shulk, Jiggly Puff, Ganadorf, Mario, Zelda, Palutena, Ness, Lucas, Ike, Ridley, Link, Young Link, Bowser, Yoshi, Wario, Isabelle, Dedede, Snake, Samus, Dark Samus, Wolf, Falcon, Luigi, ROB, Little Mac, Inkling, Daisy, Peach, Mewtwo, Lucario, Pikachu, Pichu, Pokemon Trainer, Zero Suit Samus, and K Rool.
