Sidekick's are better!!

[Mr.MoJo21]

Ok I happen to notice that in brawl the sidekicks of brawl are better than the main characters.

For instance:

Luigi>Mario
Falco>Fox
Zelda>Link
Dedede and Metaknight>Kirby
Diddy>Donkey Kong
Lucas>Ness
etc.

What do you guys think? Does Smash Love the Sidekicks?

 

[Doc Chronic]

hah, sidekicks.......i don't really agree with your comparisons , so no

which ones don't you agree with?

A few of those aren't really "sidekick" characters...

For example, Lucas is from an entirely different game than Ness, and is the main character in it. Zelda isn't really a sidekick as much as she's the "damsel in distress". Meta-Knight is more like Kirby's rival, and Dedede is generally regarded as the antagonist for the Kirby series (even if he almost always turns out to be either possessed or simply misunderstood in his intentions...).

You're out of your mind.
Ness is well better than Lucas. Want proof? SSE.

Nope.
Mario has ground advantage in my eyes compared to Luigi who has amazing aerial advantage.
Fox has an easier time KOing while Falco can combo like crazy.
Zelda can KO quickly but is also KOed just as quickly. Link is heavier.
Diddy is light and has solid hits, but DK is heavy and has solid hits and can KO much faster.
Lucas can combo well and smashes are his best KO moves while all of Ness's moves are slower but all around has more KO potential.
It's balanced. Any other suggestions?

but lucas is the main character of his game

 

[The Director]

Nope.Diddy is light and has solid hits, but DK is heavy and has solid hits and can KO much faster.

Thank you. DK is way better than Diddy. The heavyweight class has such a distinct advantage over every other class, and DK can wreck harder and longer (lol) than Diddy can.

 

[Killer-Spades]

some of those i agree, course sometimes its how you play them, so some of those i also disagree with...

 

[Mr.MoJo21]

ok apperantly you all are all gonna hate so i ain't even gonna argue that Luigi can combo like amazingly and diddy kong is definately better than DK. I can't even argue with you guys because it will be a waste of my time.

Wait a minute, your saying the slower characters have a advantage over the more speedy characters. I just can't agree with this, I don't want to start a argument or anything but speed really does matter. If your enemy can't catch you how will they beat you, you could pound on them constantly and wear them down.

Speed is indeed important, but not everything. Otherwise Sonic would be fighting for top tier.

That said, I don't think heavy characters have an innate advantage over speedy ones. There's simply too much to take into account to make a generalization like that (for example, if one character has more range or priority, they're going to have the advantage over the opponent regardless of speed).

 

[hippochinfat!!]

Donkey Kong runs faster then Diddy.
