Sonic is just not that good. He's got a fast running speed, and that's about it. He may have some combos, but almost none of them result in a KO, and his power attacks are just slow. Trust me, Sonic is not a good character. [[User:Swinghimaround|Swinghimaround]] ([[User talk:Swinghimaround|talk]]) 20:49, 7 July 2008 (UTC) | |||

Why does everyone think Sonic is low tier? I main him and I can do very well when using him. I know he lacks killing moves and the ones he does have show low priority. However, his speed makes up for that. He is one of the few characters that can combo, and he's a good damage racker. He is at least deserving of high-middle tier. People just have to put time into using him instead of saying "He's too weak I'm gonna just abuse Snake's forward tilt". His Final Smash is among (if not) the best in the game. Sonic especially excels at one-on-one matches. I mean, I personally think Lucario is an even worse killer but people still like him. I guess what I'm trying to say is:"Other than being a bad KOer, why does everyone hate Sonic?" Also, please don't answer that question with:"We hate him cuz his games suck", because I totally agree.SonicROBTrainer (talk) 23:47, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
I actually have Sonic in the high tier of my tier list. It's pretty hard to hit someone if you can't even catch them. I don't think Sonic sucks, nor do I hate his games. I thought "Shadow the Hedgehog" was a great game, despite its poor reception. I basically think Sonic is high tier because of his unpredictability and swift play style. He's also a pretty good edgeguarder. - GalaxiaD (talk) 00:57, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
His final smash is one of the best in the game, but for me, he is entirely too fast for his own good. I don't like the really fast guys, so somebody like that really irks me. Dexington (talk) 01:24, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Well, yeah. I don't think ALL of his games suck, but I haven't ssen anything noteworthy since SA2. Chronicles is proving to be very promising though.SonicROBTrainer (talk) 04:01, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Sonic is around the middle,Great speed,amazing recovery,unpredictable!but he's actually once you get him against someone like wario or jigglypuff lacking in the aerial department.

Clarinet Hawk deleted that comment about tiers. Cool. Anyway, couldn't Sonic use Spin Dash in midair to improve his air speed? - GalaxiaD (talk) 20:26, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Yes, but it takes time to set up and can't be attacked out of right away. Also, it only improves his speed in one direction so it still has the predictability disadvantages of poor air speed. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 22:56, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Plus, he could easily be edgeguarded during his spin dash.I take back his aerial capabilities comment though, combined with his special attacks he can create a crude version of a wall of pain. Hatake91 (talk) 01:44, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Why do people consider Sonic low tier? First, I'd like to point out that Final Smashes does not take place in the competitive scene. Sonics a fast character overall. But he doesn't have alot of killing moves. His tilts are better than his smashes (UTilit > Upsmash) and his special moves almost consist of the same thing. He has very little comboing ability, and it usually takes about 120% damage just to KO a player. He also does not have a decent projectile. Sure you can use it to edge-guard, but I'm pretty sure there are better moves to use in your arsenal. His recoverys pretty good... I'll give you that. Also, his spin dash can easily be affected by a projectile. Once you've stopped that you almost have no chance to combo. You may be good with him, but the metagame shows he's been sucking in tourneys <_<. ItemHazard (talk) 14:35, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
