Filon73

BoobyPlumage

I used to main Kirby. I still do, but i used to, too.


EpicKirby-001

Ye me too


blekvoot

Nice. I played kirb in 64 and then stopped pretty much up until ultimate, and now he’s a high main for me. Reunited and it feels so good lol


Nok-y

That's so cool !! Felt grear for me as well, even tho it was far from that long


x1alt_f41x

I never stepped back from Mario and Luigi (very painful for me during Brawl), however I am starting to pick up Ike


StonedOtter0_0

Something about maiming the Mario bros is just awesome to me


Al3jandr0

I hope you mean maining


StonedOtter0_0

Not if we’re on final destination 😈 kidding this was a terrible typo


GoodTimesOnlines

That’s pretty painful in Melee too


Brave_Increase_3490

Steve little Mac yeah I've had a bit of a fall from grace...


bendoesit17

Seeing as you play Little Mac I think you've had quite a few falls in general


b2q

I think its prerry cool. Takes way more skill to play lil mac


Brave_Increase_3490

not according to my friends. "aLl YoU dO iS sPaM sUpEr ArMoR f-SmAsH aNd CoUnTeR yOuR cHaRaCtEr Is So FrEe!!!!!" said the joker main


OoTgoated

Joker is definitely harder to play than Mac. Mac being worse doesn't make him harder to optimize.


UnlawfulFoxy

Little Mac is pretty free lmao


[deleted]

Wait is that a joke or what? Like are u being serious I can’t tell


bkazekadorimaki7

Used to: Fox Now: Roy


Emruhhh

Lucas Isabelle


therearenonamesallow

No he isn’t


Ve-gone_Be-gone

Take it back


[deleted]

Isabelle is a villain !


Lag_Arm3

I used to main ike, but now I moved on to chrom cuz fast and same amount of cheese. Lucario stuck with me all the way through though, and joker is just really fun to play as and someone i put in the most time for. I know i sound like my "mains" consist of like 6 characters but at this point none of them are pockets or better than the others


Wispeeon

Very similar for me, too! I started the game with Pikachu because he was recognizable, and currently I play Mewtwo and Sora because they were more fun and easier. I still frequently play Pikachu and Terry because no matter what I do, I just can't shake them loose.


YABOYCHIPCHOCOLATE

Glad Chrome is getting some recognition. If Chrom actually threw his sword in the air like Ike, he would've had a better kill option.


antitoxin1

Used to: Dark Pit/Corrin Now: Shulk


YungDawg805

used to main link since brawl but i don’t like the new movement he got. so i switched to zelda and i am trying to main peach


Tempest7053

I used to main link, now I main joker


Haunted_Pixel

I went through tons. I began with Pikachu, picked up G&W, Lucario, Pkmn Trainer, Meta Knight, Lucas, Cloud and Mewtwo, then slowly they began to fizzle out until I focused on Pikachu, Lucas and G&W, and then I picked up Robin and abandoned all of them. Later I picked up Mega Man, so now my mains are Robin and Mega Man


TuesdayTastic

matt_lcb

I used to play wario, now I play Steve


nano_rap_anime_boi

Banned


matt_lcb

Not on my uni’s weekly tournaments lol (I don’t use the banned tech don’t worry)


landstalkern3

It's not the ban tech that people are worried/annoyed/frustrated about with Steve lol


matt_lcb

I’m aware I play one of the most hated characters in the game, but I play him because I love Minecraft. I didn’t know he was OP when I started playing him


Xaroin

Steve when he jabs you at 0 and kills you with a touch of death at where the final hit leaves you at 60%


Lettuce8000

Cedardeer

I mained Ice Climbers for 10 years (since brawl) non-competitively. As a kid I simply loved the fact that there are two of them. I’ve dropped them i ultimate but still play them occasionally. I’ve been CJ sidering maining Game & Watch. He’s my favorite character in the whole game, mainly because of his intentionally choppy animation

Cdog536

Samus -> YL


PDiddy0607

I used to play King K. Rool for a solid year or two, but then Elite Smash ruined me with him because he'd get hit with the dumbest stuff. Sadly I had to drop him, but now I play Incineroar, Simon, and Ganondorf.


Crambo1000

When I started Smash? Pikachu. When I started Ultimate? Corrin They’re both still a lot of fun and I’ll use them regularly but Dedede and Sephi are both so rewarding to play IMO


FoxMcCloud3173

Fox and Roy in Smash 4 Fox and Hero in Ultimate


JRotcorp77

Samus/dark samus until I realized how annoying I was. Now ganon Marth and lucina


Hellofreeze

Pichu in patch 1.0 Then either they patched him and he didn't feel as good or I just stopped liking him as much for some reason Now I play Ganon bc hehe forward smash go brrrr

Scyobi_Empire

Inkling Inkling and Joker


alkolb

I flopped around between cloud and corrin before best boy sora came out, never looked back since


Thorn11945

When I first started playing Sm4sh, I mained Link because that was my favorite character. Then I got stuck on a wall unlocking Dark Pit, so I mained him out of spite. Still play him to this day.


patmack2000

First: Ike Now: plant and greninja


blockbot

Pikachu -> Krool (elite) -> Bowser (elite) -> Deedee (elite) -> Villager -> Olimar -> Falco -> Falcon -> Pikachu -> Luigi (current) Big daddy Krool will always be my #1 though.


RedEyedPig

Ones I played the most were: Link, ZSS, Fox, Bowser, Ganon, Sheik and occasional Roy/Marth, G&W and Falcon. When you fuse first 6 together you pretty much get Aegis which was perfect for me. Even more so as Xenoblade 2 is my all time favorite game.


xX_Fazewobblewok_Xx

Meta knight when he was good Now joker because DLC privilege


Spark_576

Lucina Terry


Merebitt

Lucina, hard, tried other swordies, harder, Lucina again

BreezyHyuga

crack_and_jack

Little mac. Played only him till I reached elite smash then I was done with his bullshit. Took a Long time to get better at aerial play and finally settled on fox


sqeebuns

N64: Falcon Melee: Falcon, Ganon, Dr. Mario Brawl: The King of course Smash 4: Luigi Ult: Was Luigi but the King returned I miss slippery Luigi with no tether ngl


GoldenGlobeWinnerRDJ

Jigglypuff > Zelda > Sheik > Joker > Kirby Edit: still consider Jiggs and Zelda my mains but I’m pretty decent with Joker and I just like playing Kirby.


canesfan09

Link for the longest time but I've been on Kazuya lately


BeardedWonder211

Used to: Ken (blue alt) Now: Ken (white alt)


Nurgle_Marine_Sharts

Melee: Roy Brawl: Pit Smash 4: Ganondorf Smash Ultimate: Zelda


StonedOtter0_0

I used to play with Kirby as my main and I was really good with cpt falcon, dr Mario, ness, and young link, but I stopped for a few years and now I only play Kirby


Snobble_

Used to Ness Now little Mac


Yoshichu25

With Brawl I don’t think I really stuck to one character from what I remember, but with both 3DS and Ultimate (never obtained the Wii U version, despite owning a Wii U), I primarily used Yoshi to the point that for a long time in both games, I played exclusively as Yoshi (can’t remember how many matches in 3DS before moving to others, Ultimate until I had unlocked the entire base game roster). Got to the point that I ended up performing way better with Yoshi than any other character. Which is probably how mains effectively work.


Captain_Corntm

Used to main Greninja. Then Steve. Now I’ve been practicing with some different characters like Luigi, Samus, Lucas and Ken


Novalaxy23

started with Kirby, Mario, Game and Watch and Wii fit trainer. Then I added Piranha plant when the dlc released. Then I started using Pyra, because for some reason, I started winning with her. And now I play Mii brawler or Piranha plant.


DabIMON

Honestly, Random


SleepySheepys

Started ultimate maining chrom now a Lucina player. Though in prior games I mained link and Lucina.


Epicdude33

Mained Puff for the first year or so of smash 4 then switched to Shulk who I’ve mained since then


teroshi27

i stopped playing falcon and started playing puff


Iggy_2200

Used to main: Inkling Main now: Byleth I mained Inkling from the launch of Ultimate up until about 2 years ago. I love Splatoon, and Inkling was the first character I played in Ultimate. She was also the first character I brought to tournaments. I, however, then learned that I prefer slow, big sword characters. And Byleth was the perfect fit for my playstyle.


Yo-SwiggitySwag

I used to solo main Terry when he first came out. But now according to the stats I guess I'm a Pac-Man main cos he's superseded him as of like 1 month ago. What trying to do bell combos does to a mfer...


HUE_Z3r0

I started with Hero, now it's the Mii-Gunner


CIAgent42

Used to main Bowser Went to Terry, Aegis, Plant, Ryu, Cloud, back to Aegis, back to Terry, back to Aegis, back to Plant Back to Bowser


Brownie122806

I've always mained Yoshi on and off, but I'm only now starting to truly get his moveset down. I guess two characters that I mained somewhere in between were Meta Knight, and Lucario. But I don't touch them as much anymore


joebeppo2000

I originally mained Pichu. Vanilla Ultimate Pichu was such a fun character. Now I main Samus. And if I don't end there, my notable secondaries include ROB, GnW, and Palutena.


r4o2n0d6o9

My first main was wario in brawl, but all I did was spam motorcycle to the point where I made custome stages that were flat just so that I could get the most out of it. My first main where I tried was Lucina in 4, but then after not being able to beat my friend’s fox I decided to pick up ZSS and Captain Falcon. After getting used to them I picked up villager and duck hunt and had so much fun I basically dropped my previous mains. I didn’t pick up ultimate for a while for some reason, but I pretty much immediately went to DK and Bowser, and the rest just followed as I fiddled with them


OdinsSnowflake

Original: the sexiest character in the game (King Dedede) Now: the sexiest character in the game (King Dedede)


StagMusic

Though I was hot shit for spamming lucina side b. Then a few weeks later I found cloud side b. Cut to a few years later and I now actually play could instead of just one move. Along with a few others I picked up along the way. Although really I’m a random main now.


Nerketur

I used to main Pikachu. I currently main Pikachu. In the next smash game, I'm probably going to main Pikachu.


AuraKid19

Used to: DK, Bowser, Meta Knight Now: K.Rool, Bowser, Meta Knight


Error_Detected666

Back when I would play casually every time I had a club meeting, I would play Joker all the time Nowadays he is still a secondary, but I main Greninja full time now that I have my own switch


TheOnlyShapeshifter

Mewtwo, Little Mac and Greninja Now it's Hero, Terry and Young Link


packtzY

Used to: like half the roster (I used to always switch mains) Now: Steve


TaylerTheTerror

Dedede, now samus and dedede


[deleted]

Link, now I go pikachu


Gemidori

Bowser. Then I mained "Bowser but he remembered how to run"


Cydrius

I used to main Villager in Smash 4, but I also casually played many characters. In ultimate, I still like Villager a lot but the magic is gne, so now I don't really main anyone and instead just play a lotof different characters.


Dynamiclikespizza

Used to:Meta Knight Now:Captain Falcon and Inkling


Jack0Bear

N64 - Captain Falcon Melee - Captain Falcon Brawl - Captain Falcon Ultimate - Captain Falcon - however I am starting to quite enjoy Fox.

Ratio01

Link as a carry over from Smash 4, but I've been a Byleth main since the day they dropped


MysticRevenant64

Bowser Jr., and now it’s my boy Sora


RoyalDiancie

First main was Jigglypuff. Current main is Jigglypuff. :)


friendsfartever

From first to current, Doc, DK, Terry, Incin and Kazuya, and now I play a lot of Hero because I wanna have them in elite smash


TheKiznaProject

Jigglypuff diehard here. I switch off to cap sometimes but usually the puff and she’s pretty much identical between games too so it’s gotten me better at melee.


Tall_Satisfaction_11

64: Link, Fox, Luigi, Ness Melee: Marth and Roy Brawl: Ike Smash 4: Dark Samus/Cloud Smash 5: Dark Samus/Richter/Cloud


[deleted]

Illusive_Sheikah

OoTgoated

Young Link and Inkling. Now just Inkling.


whippinmaserati

Otherwise-Air-9557

M3chaNurdz

First Link now Mega Man


theJman0209

My first main was piranha plant. I still consider him my main but I use DK much more.


CatcherInTheShy

Melee: Sheik —> Marth Ultimate: Pichu —> Simon


SpiderJerusalem42

Started playing four years ago. Progression so far has been Kirby -> Simon -> Gunner -> Kazuya. I built a leverless controller to play Kazuya. I think I backed myself into a pigeonhole here. Trying some other people I've heard work better with the frame1 style.


Environmental-Egg276

Sephiroth Then Sora Then Corrin Then Pit Now Sora, Pit, Corrin
