The first one I tried to play competitively was Brawl, although I eventually became more interested in Melee and switched my focus to it shortly before Project M 2.0 was released.


I enjoy every game in the series, although my favorite gameplay came from Melee. I'm a fan of fast paced action, and I love all of the speed and advanced techniques that Melee has. However, I love Brawl as well; instead of seeing it as an inferior sequel to Melee, I like to see it as its own separate game with its own different style of play. I like Smash 64, but not as much as Melee and Brawl. I also play Project M.

====Sonic====
Like Melee, my best character in Brawl is once again Marth. After him I also enjoy using King Dedede. I play Meta Knight too, if I'm not being serious.
My favorite and by far best character in Brawl is Sonic. When I first unlocked him, I wanted to see how he was, and quite frankly, I enjoyed his playstyle a lot. I believed that not many people would find much value in Sonic (which later turned out to be true; none of my friends thought good of him), so I made it my personal goal to make him my best character. I seem to have more or less succeeded; everyone in the circle of Brawl players at my university recognizes me as a talented Sonic player, and against Meta Knight, I find it easiest to use Sonic (closely followed by Falco).


Another reason I enjoy Sonic is because how good of a character he is really depends on the player, more than any other character. You can easily pick up someone like Marth or Meta Knight, but if you don't know how to use Sonic, you will not do well. On the other hand, in the hands of a very skilled player, Sonic is pretty frightening. I do believe, however, that there are few matchups where Sonic has a true advantage, and some matchups where he is at a disadvantage; in these situations, I do find it valuable to use someone else such as Marth or Falco.
My low tier characters of choice are Mario and Captain Falcon.


One distinction I believe my Sonic has from others is that I make little use of the Homing Attack. I feel that aside from certain situations, it's fairly unreliable and slow. I make constant use out of his other specials, though.
In the past, I prided myself in being good with Sonic. It wasn't until I went to college that I realized I wasn't that great with him after all. Over time, I started enjoying Sonic less and less the more I tried improving with him. Now, I barely play Sonic ever.


====Others====
===Super Smash Bros. 4===
Along with Sonic, my other main character is once again Marth. I feel that even though he has had significant changes between Melee and Brawl, he can still be played in a similar style and be successful. I also enjoy using Falco, and while I like using him in Melee and Project M, I really like the distinct playstyle he has in Brawl.
I don't know who I'm going to play yet in SSB4, although I have taken a particular interest in Mega Man and the Wii Fit Trainer.
 
Just recently I've discovered that I am also pretty good with Olimar. I'm currently working on improving my skill with him.
 
Behind that, I also like Fox, although I wouldn't use him in a serious game (as I could use Falco or Sonic instead).
 
In the early days of Brawl, when I liked to refuse to believe the tier list, one of my mains was Captain Falcon (as he is in SSB64 and Melee). These days, however, I openly acknowledge that he is a terrible character, and nowhere near what he was in Melee.
 
In the past, I considered myself a master of diversity, being able to play as any character (except Peach and Jigglypuff). I ended up taking a break from Brawl, however, and as a result, most of this ability vanished.


===Project M===
===Project M===
Once again, my favorite character in Project M is Sonic. I think he is vastly superior to his Brawl counterpart, due to the sheer amount of extra speed and combos he has. After that, my other favorite characters are Marth, Ike, Falco, Ganondorf, Sheik, and Mr. Game & Watch.
My choice of characters in Project M is identical to that of Melee, with my main being Marth and alternates being Fox and Sheik.


I enjoy playing as Captain Falcon, although I feel that the minor differences between Melee's and Project M's physics make him inferior to what he was in Melee. He's still better than he was in Brawl though. By a longshot.
Of the other characters, I enjoy Ike, Sonic, and Mario, although I wouldn't call myself great with any of them.


The two characters I actively avoid are Wario and Zelda. I am just not good as either of them.
===Character Loyalty===
I feel that some players have a degree of loyalty to a certain character, and will play them in each game regardless of their position on the tier list (although possibly not seriously).


==Playstyle==
My loyalty definitely lies with Marth, as I play him in every game or mod he appears in. I also have a degree of loyalty to Fox and Mario, being able to enjoy them in every game as well.
I prefer characters with high speed and great air games. I think the air is where a character can have the most utility, and if you can control the air, you're in for a good time. As for speed, if I'm too fast for you to hit me, good luck.


In Melee and Project M, I make extensive use of L-canceling and dashdancing. I mean, why wouldn't you?
At a point in time I was also fiercely loyal to Captain Falcon. This time has since faded, and I now use him exclusively in Smash 64 (and occasionally in Brawl).

Characters

Super Smash Bros.

The only character in the original SSB that I truly consider myself good with is Captain Falcon. Aside from him, I am also decent with Mario.

I can somewhat play as a majority of the SSB64 cast, although I do not find particular enjoyment in Donkey Kong or Jigglypuff, and I absolutely despise playing as Luigi.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

My best character in Melee is without a doubt Marth. I have also picked up Fox, and while I believe I am decent with him., I wouldn't call myself good.

I generally avoid playing the lower tier characters (aside from Roy). I'm also not particularly good with Peach.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Like Melee, my best character in Brawl is once again Marth. After him I also enjoy using King Dedede. I play Meta Knight too, if I'm not being serious.

My low tier characters of choice are Mario and Captain Falcon.

In the past, I prided myself in being good with Sonic. It wasn't until I went to college that I realized I wasn't that great with him after all. Over time, I started enjoying Sonic less and less the more I tried improving with him. Now, I barely play Sonic ever.

Super Smash Bros. 4

I don't know who I'm going to play yet in SSB4, although I have taken a particular interest in Mega Man and the Wii Fit Trainer.

Project M

My choice of characters in Project M is identical to that of Melee, with my main being Marth and alternates being Fox and Sheik.

Of the other characters, I enjoy Ike, Sonic, and Mario, although I wouldn't call myself great with any of them.

Character Loyalty

I feel that some players have a degree of loyalty to a certain character, and will play them in each game regardless of their position on the tier list (although possibly not seriously).

My loyalty definitely lies with Marth, as I play him in every game or mod he appears in. I also have a degree of loyalty to Fox and Mario, being able to enjoy them in every game as well.

At a point in time I was also fiercely loyal to Captain Falcon. This time has since faded, and I now use him exclusively in Smash 64 (and occasionally in Brawl).
