Hi there. My smasher tag is Gold, my wiki name is Smashgold347238, and I edit a lot of pages where I feel it is needed (which may or may not actually be needed, so I apologize in advance).
I started with Super Smash Bros. Brawl and really wanted to know as much about the game as possible, so I came over here. Since then, I've tried out every single Smash Bros. game, even Brawl-. I've mostly played Captain Falcon throughout every game, but I now primarily play Smash 4, where I main Cloud and keep a bunch of secondaries for fun.
I've had varying thoughts of each game and how they all play differently. I suppose that, starting from Brawl and Smash 64 (to a lesser extent), I was more interested in the slower pace that both games had because the approach was more methodical than execution-heavy. It certainly had me against Melee for a while, but I eased into it after seeing a couple of matches and wanting to get better with my own setup at home. After spending nearly two years of playing Melee, however, I find myself averse to destroying my hands practicing an obselete character (Captain Falcon), and trying to do that for better characters would simply eat up too much of my time. Thus, in a twist of fate, my mentality for which game to play reverted back to the slower style of Smash Bros. games, and my passion to get better was then redirected to Smash 4, where I found a new character in Cloud to use; with the gameplay differences in Smash 4, I can apply my knowledge better without struggling to move my character.
You may find me lurking in the Smash on Tap Smash 4 brackets at Even Matchup Gaming's Challonge page. If you see GoldML anywhere on Twitch, that's me (but I don't stream).
My Smash 4 tier list
I recently made my own tier list for Smash 4. You don't have to take it for word, it is mostly my opinion, as well as a popularity contest. (sorry Mii Fighters). Here's how I categorized them.
- S+: Possesses very few flaws, and is extremely consistent.
- S: Not as consistent as S+, but can easily keep up in the right hands.
- A+: Might need a few reads to get a win, but still has it easier than most characters.
- A: Has a lot of potential, but may have some flaws that S+/S characters can exploit.
- B: Requires a bit of dedication, but is still reasonably rewarding.
- C: More flaws than advantages, and needs prediction or clever use of gimmicks to win.
- D: Inherently flawed, and cannot keep up with the metagame without extensive dedication.
- F: As a Cloud main, I feel bad for you.
