Editing Talk:Character matchup (SSBM)

== Alignment == 

Good call on the re-align, MaskedMarth. My resolution doesn't seem to suffer the problem you were describing, but it really just looks better on the right anyway. *thumbs up*  -- [[User:Randall00|Randall00]] 22:49, February 13, 2007 (GMT)

: Haha, thanks, and good job on the whole article! {{User:MaskedMarth/sig}} 02:31, February 14, 2007 (GMT)


== Merge with Matchup ==
This belongs on the [[Matchup]] article. [[Special:Contributions/98.117.158.220|98.117.158.220]] 03:03, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

== So... ==

Is this going to be redesigned to match the [[Character matchups (SSB)|other]] [[Character matchups (SSBB)|two]]?

:That's the plan currently. But before that, I'd like to ask if anyone can provide a newer version - from what the article says, it's badly outdated. I'll fix it up soon in either case, but of course it'd be better if I didn't do it and have to redo it.

== favour/favor ==

I always assumed that this wiki was primarily American and I've seen "color" as opposed to "colour" often enough so what's with favour? Food for thought.[[User:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Orange;">highway</span>]] Image:highwaypumpypic.jpg|20px [[User talk:Highwaypumpy|<span style="color:Red;">pumpy</span>]] 02:09, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
:Well, I made the stuff, and I'm Canadian, so there's your reason as to why it's as such. We don't have any "American speeling" rule, so I just type it how it is. Of course, someone can change it, but it'll get changed back for consistency if he doesn't change very single one.

==Mewtwo's  matchup on bowser==
Perhaps this is not the right place, but there is no way Mewtwo's matchup with Bowser is 50:50. Mewtwo has a chaingrab on Bowser, and he can chain him up to %100. From there, a simple back throw will KO Bowser. I'd say Mewtwo has at least a 60:40 matchup against Bowser. Please move this to the right place if this doesn't belong here.

:This is the stuff you talk about in forums, but I'll respond to your comment anyways. I believe you are underestimating Bowser. First off, Mewtwo can not chain throw Bowser any where close to 100%, the down throw is too strong to be able to chain throw for that long. Secondly, the up throw would be a much more effective finisher on Bowser as he is not a fast faller. Now Bowser has some good attacks in his arsenal. Bowser's fair, usually considered his best attack in ''Melee'', is much better than any of Mewtwo's aerials, and Mewtwo does not have a proper way to deal with it. Bowser also has the Whirling Fortress, his other great attack. It has only 5 frames of start up, along with very high base knockback. It does have low knockback scaling, but considering Mewtwo is so light and floaty, Mewtwo is going to be KOd by it once he has reached the 100% mark. While there is much more that goes into a matchup than this, you provided a simple reason as will I. The point is that Bowser's fair and Whirling Fortress are going to make a bigger impact on this matchup than Mewtwo's throws. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 13:51, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
::Um, Mewtwo '''can''' chain bowser to %100. I tried this on a level 9 CPU and it did not break free until 106%. Rather than doing the last D throw, anyone could simply use the Back or Up throw to finish Bowser, making it a Zero Death Combo. Mewtwo can also do this chain throw to other fast fallers, and this is why I think his tier position should be higher.

:::The fact that you did it on a cpu '''doesn't''' make it a 0-death chain throw. Actually do it against a competent human player. I've played ''Melee'' for years and I know for a fact that Mewtwo cannot chain throw anyone beyond 100%. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 16:33, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

:A new one that is incomplete accomplishes nothing. In addition, with 6 tables on there, a consensus on whether or not to include them must exist.

== Vertical column ==
taking a look at it today and if i knew how to would have rearranged the vertical column to mirror the horizontal one.  Although it does not bother me i feel for consistency that they should be mirror and not mis-matched[[User:FE pro|FE pro]] ([[User talk:FE pro|talk]]) 15:32, 3 February 2011 (EST)

== Alignment  ==

Um... this chart looks  mis-aligned at the bottom, since the mirrors make a perfect diagonal when the horizontal and vertical columns are different resulting in Kirby having a "mirror" matchup with Pichu, Ness with Kirby, G&W with Yoshi, etc. I personally don't know how the matchups should look, so I can't really fix it. Can someone else fix it? <font style="background: #fffffff" face="none" color="teal">[[File:Warp_Star1.jpg|20px]][[User:T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#000080;">'''T.c.w'''</span>]][[User talk:T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#800000;">'''74'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#008000;">'''68'''</span>]]</font> 12:46, 26 February 2011 (EST)
:I figured out what went wrong. I adjusted it so that the matches are accurate (the mirror matches line up), but as of now it still isn't aligned yet. I think when the tiers changed, someone adjusted either the row or the column but didn't adjust the other, but the alignment still needs to be fixed.<font style="background: #fffffff" face="none" color="teal">[[File:Warp_Star1.jpg|20px]][[User:T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#000080;">'''T.c.w'''</span>]][[User talk:T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#800000;">'''74'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/T.c.w7468|<span style="font-family:Sylfaen; color:#008000;">'''68'''</span>]]</font> 16:37, 27 February 2011 (EST)

I am starting to think we should change it to Brawl's Matchup Chart system. The current chart has numbers like +2 and +3 on its first form. We could use it like that one. [[User:Zeldasmash|Zeldasmash]] ([[User talk:Zeldasmash|talk]]) 12:57, 10 June 2011 (EDT)

== Editing the matchups?==
The current matchup spread seems to be inaccurate for a lot of characters(especially Yoshi), and certain characters have more even/positive/negative matchups than before. Is there a way to edit the individual matchups, or does an entirely new chart have to be put in there? I just want to know how the old chart would compare to the new one, and finally see the mostly accurate matchup spread for each ind. character. Hopefully the chart can be updated soon enough.

-:For stuff like matchup charts and tier lists, we keep to the most official releases from SmashBoards (and so far there hasn't been any other reputable group that's eclipsed them to our knowledge). So we can't really change anything until we see they've got a new official release, and I don't think many people care about matchup charts nowadays.

-== Matchup Chart Messed Up ==
-It seems like the order of the characters has changed based on the most current tier list and now the matchup icons are not in the right place.
