Who do you main in Smash 4?

GalacticPetey said:
You should get Lucas.
Yeah, we should. We're kind of tight on the money, however (we like to save our $150 for cool things; note we don't have an income nor an allowance nor any viable means of getting money).

I've been maining Ness. I don't really like the way Yoshi is in Smash 4, he feels weak. I've been using Ryu and Palutena quite a bit as well.

Ironically this is the game where Yoshi is top tier.
I'd say high tier, not top.

Gives me more the reason to beat the living snot out of him.
 
Heh I'm well aware you don't like Sonic, Yoshi, Charizard, and the Mii Fighters. But I don't remember you saying anything about Captain Falcon or Samus :S

Captain Falcon and Samus, I don't hate them, but they're a favorite punching bag. I'd rather if I never have to use those two, though.

Well Zero Suit Samus is quite high on her list so she probably doesn't hate Samus.

I view Zero Suit and Samus as two entirely separate characters. One is a robot, the other is a woman. Any sort of transitioning is explained via stunt doubles.

I still think having more than one or two 'mains' defeats the purpose of having a main in the first place. Other characters are just ones I play sometimes that I wouldn't use if I actually wanted to win. Roy because I spent money on this kid. Jiggs and G&W for Rest and 9-Hammer respectively. Pit is there since he's almost completely the same as Dark Pit so it's not like I don't know how to use him.
 
y'know i think i'll do the image thing as well and merge the two 'lists' i have while i'm at it

Zelda has shot up per recent buffs, and Pit has appeared.
 
I'm going to do an image version too. Also did some slight adjustments, such as Shulk and Pikachu dropping down to Tertiaries, Lucas moving up to Secondaries and Robin switching places with Ike. Don't really feel like using ZSS and Ganon anymore. Samus is banished to Can't use tier.

Note: Every character in a tier is ordered from best to worst, except Okay with, but don't use tier, which is in CSS order. Also the only characters on this list I would consider my true mains are the characters in Emblem Tier.

dang, people are stealing my idea and I like it!

We bought Lucas, Ryu, and Roy the Boy. Ryu and Roy Boy have a spot in Baby Luigi On Fire, and I like Lucas to be at least in the pumpkin tier.
 
A whole lot of changes. Most notable being that the size of the Main and Secondary tiers have dropped significantly (2 mains, 4 secondaries). Pocket replaces Tertiaries, and is now just home to character I know a good chunk about, but don't beat the secondaries. Other is characters I either know a smaller amount about or I am absolute crap at them (only really the case with the last 4). If I missed any characters, do tell me so.

i dont play smash that often nowadays, but when i do i usually play ryu. before ryu was released, i played dark pit and little mac, so i guess they're secondaries? those are probably the only three i'm actually fairly good at
 
I main as Mega Man. Other than him, mainly use Donkey Kong, Diddy, and Pacman.
 
Game & Watch
(Old Man) Ganondorf
Roy
on my sometimes used I have Greninja, Dr. Mario, Wario, Bowser, Dark Pit and Bowser Jr.
