Why Mario is PAINFULLY AVERAGE in Melee, and how he changed in Project M

  • Mario is pretty okay in Melee. Being barely mid-tier basically means you aren't that viable in the Melee Meta. Mario does get buffed in Project M, which helps his character archetype become more fleshed out and overall rewarding to play.

      @@ZachHonest For sure. Melee Link from 64 Link feels a little too much like two steps forward, four steps back. With that said PM/P+ Link is FAR better than either of the two. In my arrogant opinion, people are sleeping on P+ Link hard.

    This video is really dope, only confusing thing about it is sometimes the references just don't show the point you're talking about.
    Like the shiek having good tilts and combos, etc. The clip you referenced just showed shiek getting combo'd which was weird.

    @javianmonserrate8930 Рік тому

    Well Doctor Mario has the same dash speed, air speed, air acceleration and fast fall speed and his attacks are slightly more laggy and soem are less range for greater combo starters, koing and knockback.
    Luigi is the slowest and gets koed the easiest and with more predictiable attacks but he has better koing, knockback, misfire is better recovery if you get the lucky 12.5 percent chance and he for some people says the best combo character out of the 3, some people say it.
    For a mid teir recovery, mario has the best recovery with luigi or mid and low teirs.
    It's predictable and hard to master.
    Mario has a cape for stalling his recovery
    Up special is an decent recovery
    And his down special can be a recovery
    He does have a good wall jump.
    +Good combo game
    + multiple recovery
    +Good out of shield options
    +Low Lag attacks
    +Good zoning by his fireball
    +Decent edgeguard by fireball and cape.
    -Lacks range
    -Preditable recovery
    -Great against low teir characters
    -Lacks Ko
    -struggles against high teir characters
    -lacks a good grab
    -Outclassed by his clones
    Also spoiler for who didnt watch the video, mario was significantly puffed by project M and P plus. His attacks are faster, stronger, betterrecovery, edgeguard, Ko options and was shown A lot in tournaments, he is consumed a midnight teir or a high teir character meaning you are great in the game, he beated marth and has favorable matchups.
    Mario Dash speed 1.5
    Don't be a slow character ,(Mario has an average dash speed)
    Because it ruins combos, Retreats, Approaching, recovery and Zoning like bowser. Also has low lag attacks because if you dont then Frame 1 shine will be great against it and your attacks are predictable
    Mario has some had some bonuses in melee that keeper it from being crazy good or terrible.
    His attacks have lower knockback
    +Better combos
    -Worse Koing potential
    His Up smash is faster
    +less predictable
    -but at the cost of lower damage.
    Mario is an jack of all trades. He us great for comboes and edgeguarding. Hes a decent zoner and a decent recovery. But his attacks are weak, lacks Ko options, his recovery is predictable, an struggles against high teir characters. Thank you for your time. Like your vids honest Content

    Personally, I think Mario was a decent fighter in Melee. He did have problems, which weren’t that big of a deal until Brawl.
    Also I’ve been able to defeat Giga Bowser with Mario on the day of writing this comment.
