Too many pros repeated, or just worded differently. So i put them together. (good character but was lengthy with no need to be). Each character has same chance of pratfalling. [[User:Phayz|Phayz]] ([[User talk:Phayz|talk]]) 15:13, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

==Techniques==
Guys, calm down. Why is everybody here either hate Meta Knight, or love him? Sure, my best fighter is Meta Knight, which may qualify me as a "Noob who only uses high-tier characters", but my second best isn't Diddy Kong or Snake, it's Ike. I am good with Captain Falcon and stink with the Ice Climbers. Who you use should be with who you're best with, not just high-tiered characters. If you really want to even out the tiers, instead of banning Meta Knight, you could embrace Ganondorf and try to build a good metagame for him. I'm trying with Ike at this moment. USE_YOUR_MOST_SKILLED. Period. [[User:Meta Ike|Meta Ike]] ([[User talk:Meta Ike|talk]]) 16:52, 17 February 2012 (EST)

==Techniques==  
I remember all the fighters had a list of techniques on their pages. What happened to them? I was going to put them back but I don't want to cause controversy. The techniques sections were helpful. Meta Knight has many good techniques such as his pseudo-crawl and double glide. Does anyone have an opinion on this?

There is false information (that has actually been here for quite some time).  Falco's page claims he is the only character to have 50/50 match-up with Metaknight, while this page claims that Metaknight has a 55/45 advantage over him.  One is incorrect and it should be fixed.

:The matchups are decided by each individual character's board on SWF. As such, we have inconsistencies like this where two characters' matchups don't add up to 100:100. I know it is retarded and both character boards should decide two characters' matchup against each other together instead of deciding their own character's matchup (who would tend to give their characters better matchups anyway), which often results in two different matchup results for one matchup, such as one side saying their character has a 60:40 matchup and the other side saying their character has a 55:45 matchup.

:As the metagame advances and new techniques and strategies appear, matchups become obsolete. The current matchup chart ignores any matchups that have not been updated/rediscussed/reconfirmed for a year by the people on SmashBoards. Also remember that even though Meta Knight may not have all his matchups documented, most other characters have their matchup with Meta Knight documented, and while they may differ slightly, they're still pretty similar. In addition, while tiers and matchups usually agree with each other, they have no technical relation: tiers are based on tournament placings, while matchups are based on individial attributes and matchup-specific techniques.
