We don't play Ganon because we think he's viable. We play him to send a message. And that message is "heehee beeg sword"

[@dylancolby6030]

I thought our message was "SHIELD BREAK, HAHHHHH" as we fully charge an f smash or hit a reverse Warlock punch.

The ganon was looking nice, but gluto is a bit fair-happy. Upair is usually better, and maybe could've used more aerial/grounded side-b punishes as well. Darkstalker great as always, great games!

[@robertlaghiti7228]

Ganondorf player gets to a european tournament finals against a strong dlc character. Has a set in which he almost wins. Smash community: "Okay we saw Ganon perform like that but he still isn't viable." Trust us we are not bias. Also he could of won if he used the flame chokes more often in the right position. Instead he is trying to challenge Terry's aerials which are probably better than Falcons.

[@Ebani]

He had the win but dropped it, literally started trolling the moment he was winning.

[@patrickhanson2205]

Sure, Gluto could have won the second match, but if your job is competitive Smash he is not viable lol. Ganon is pretty objectively not solo viable, and is a bad secondary and a bad pocket. Idk, you're not exactly wrong but you sound salty and I am a little confused about that.

[@robertlaghiti7228]

@@patrickhanson2205 Your free to have your own opinion. I still think it is character favoritism. He got to the finals in a tournament. To me that is evidence that Ganondorf has viability. What a boring conversation. Next you can explain to me how Palutena is so high on the tier list. When she can loose to Incinaroar. Also they didn't change Palutena at all except for one of her moves the side b zzzzzz. I sense some bias involved.

[@0oShwavyo0]

@@robertlaghiti7228 incin is much better than Ganondorf. And no one said a good player can’t win a tournament with Ganon if they really tried, it’s just that the risk/reward is way better for other characters. To win as ganon consistently you have to work a lot harder to cover all his weaknesses. Btw people think it’s insane what Skyjay is doing with incin so it’s not a great counterexample as many would say incin is not a great main either.

[@robertlaghiti7228]

@@0oShwavyo0 You have a right to your own opinion but I still do not believe you. A character who is truely bottom tier would never be able to make it to a tournament finals. That is an example of the overwhelming Ganondorf prejudice in the smash community. Also Incinaroar has a similar weakness to Ganondorf in his bad recovery. Most heavy characters have this weakness thats how they balance them. In my opinion Ganondorf is underrated and underanked because he is not a popular character aside from his moveset. Also the difference between Incinaroar & Ganondorf's ability is not that different. I have also seen Ganondorf players who can beat Palutena or evenly match her. There is clearly errors in the tier list. After Gluts performance you should move Ganon up the tier list. It is clear evidence.

Look at how much Ganondorf gets from one hit, and then look how much Terry gets from one hit. Shit's so stupid. Smash Designers: BUT GANONDORF HAS A SWORD AND HIS WARLOCK PUNCH GO BRRR DURR HURR DURR

[@jaydenhohman2590]

Might be the biggest L ever. Every character gets free damage from 1 hit lol. And you need to win neutral to get that one hit

[@Lardo137]

@@jaydenhohman2590 The amount of damage you can get from a single hit varies - different characters have different combo potential, combo strings, and combo reliability. And Ganondorf is legitimately one of the worst in all three of those categories, which isn't helped by his terrible speed and air mobility. You can see in some matches (more than just this one) that Ganondorf's opponents can live up to 100-120% or even higher, simply because it doesn't matter if he can kill them at 60% with a forward smash if that forward smash never hits and a missed one is basically suicide.

[@jaydenhohman2590]

@@Lardo137 Ganondorf has good string potential because of how big and how strong his moves are, its just hard to get those because of how terrible his stats are.

[@survivorofthecurse717]

How much Ganon gets from one hit doesn't really matter too much when if you play your cards right, you can kill in 3 neutral wins. Yeah, the person lived until triple digits, sure, but that's the Terry being good, not Ganon having awful killpower
