This is definetely a way to play olimar, probably the best for a beginner olimar. But I agree with echo's play style for more advanced pikmin potential. This strategy of not using latch nullifies the usage of White pikmin and takes away what most people love about the captain, his uniqueness and...

So basically you lie? Interesting pitch for a clan.

So lemme start out by stating two things. 1) I don't own a copy of the game, cannot practice at the level I want, and cannot test much on my own. I also do not claim to be a pro Olimar in any way. 2) I have read these three guides and find them all excellent informants on the questions I had...

Can I have your baby? EDIT: Sorry, I just read the FAQ.

http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=158890 ^ Advanced Olimar Thread. I read in Echo's and Redemption's threads, that they left out combos because there aren't any "true" combos that they've discovered to be very useful and/or devastating. Most of the combos you wrote, are not actual...

Why do you put official in all of your thread titles? What's so official about a clan you just decided to create? o.O

When I first started Brawl, I immediately went for Olimar because I loved Pikmin. I used tether to kill because it had some good vertical send and it seemed fairly easy to hit. Over time, when my friends learned how to play better, I realized tether just might be his worst move. Not only does it...

Yellow has a good vertical send, but if Echo had used a purple on Squirtle, he would have been off the stage. So the answer is no, and yes the pikmin heavily influence it.

I was the only Olimar at a 300person local tournament. Pew pew

Very nice! I find it very frustrating when I don't get a white for a good portion of the game. I completely agree this shouldn't be used to exploit having white and purple only, that gimps your melee damage, throwing ability and comboing ability. But doing this at the start of the game to get 2...

um what? The pikmin in your line were ghosts? You can't use them to attack? But chain still grapples? Confusion++

Often times, you can think of a character and label them much like we do in RPGs and MMOs (sorry this might be the DotA in me talking) Ness and Lucas are both short - mid range casters, meaning they heavily rely on their specials and not so much on the A button. Not to say they both don't have...

Templar: I doubt he meant using that certain amount of pikmin outside of experimentation, he just wants to gradually use +1 more and figure out the best way to use them individually, as pairs, triplets and so on. No one is silly enough to gimp their already terrible recovery move ;P Though I...
