'''Counterpicking''' is the act of choosing a [[character]], often a [[counter]], in order to have the advantage on a character that your opponent has chosen.  A counterpick may be made after a lost match in a [[tournament legal|tournament ruleset]].  For example, after losing to a [[Jigglypuff (SSBM)|Jigglypuff]] player in [[Melee]], a smasher might [[counterpick]] with [[Fox McCloud (SSBM)|Fox]].  Fox counters Jigglypuff because Fox's [[up smash]] and [[up aerial]] are his best killers.  Jigglypuff will die from said moves at around 55% since she is a lighter character.

Character counterpicks have changed slightly in ''Brawl''; the main problem with them being [[Meta Knight]] and the fact that he has no proper counterpick, and yet he is one of the best counterpicks to almost every other character.
