Pikachu vs. Charizard
I always felt Pikachu was a better fighter. Charizard was also so slow and not that powerful from my experiences. Sure Pikachu can be a spammy character but it's recovery makes for an unpredictable foe.

Marth vs. Palutena
Marth is a well done and classic Fire Emblem character. Palutena was never very appealing to me. I never really 'learned' her.

Snake vs. Ivysaur
I didn't miss Snake in the Wii U/3DS games but he was a pretty novel and unique character. Ivysaur was just kind of a partial character IMO. Never reached it's full potential.

Falco vs. Ganondorf
The battle of the clones! Falco is my least favorite of the trio of Fox/Wolf/Falco but Ganondorf is preferred by me over Captain Falcon so I gotta give it to Ganondorf for being the powerhouse!


Roy vs. Villager
It would be impossible for me to not vote for Villager my first round. He's so damn different and unique and I had been waiting for him since the days leading up to Brawl. I was crushed when he didn't show up there and overjoyed when he finally showed up in the most recent installments.

Bowser vs. Pichu
Pichu is a horrible horrible idea and should never have existed. Bowser is a classic powerhouse. Slow but still fun.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
Just last night I kicked some ass as Jigglypuff. Don't underestimate it! Robin is pretty cool but doesn't keep my interest like seeing if I can best someone as Jigglypuff.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
Zero Suit Samus is preferred in terms of character appeal and the games/franchise she's from, but Little Mac is such a neat surprise for the series. His unique mechanics are quite appealing to play as. Plus, even if I accidentally throw myself off a cliff, it's still fun.

Pikachu vs. Charizard
Charizard's plenty cool, but Pikachu's a classic and my favorite Smash 4 character to watch at high levels. So creative.

Marth vs. Palutena
Pally's my #3 most used character in Smash 4! I've put a lot of time into her. Marth's great too, and a classic, but I like Pally better. If only her Custom moves could get more use...

Snake vs. Ivysaur
Tough call #1! I have a soft spot for Ivysaur, but there's no question Snake's got the more creative moveset. I kinda wish they would have given his moveset to a Nintendo character for Smash 4. Like maybe Sami from Advance Wars? I think that could have worked.

Falco vs. Ganondorf
Touch call #2! Falco was my favorite in Melee and Brawl, and he's grown on me in Smash 4 after an adjustment period. Ganondorf's also great with his ridiculous strength and suicide grab. But I gotta give it to Falco for the high-flying fun.

Roy vs. Villager
Tough call #3! I personally prefer playing as Roy, as I like his twist on the Marth moveset. But Villager's moveset is full of potentially hilarious interactions with all its projectiles, the tree, and the pocketing ability.

Bowser vs. Pichu
Poor Pichu.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
Robin was a nice surprise for Smash, and has interesting moves and gimmicks. Jigglypuff's quality goes up and down in each game, but has never been lower than in Smash 4...

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
Tough call #4! A great player using ZSS is super fun to watch. But Little Mac's Smash implementation is so cool.

Pikachu vs. Charizard
Charizard is cool, but his half Flying-Type makes him weak to Pika's Thunder.

Marth vs. Palutena
Marth may be the Hero King and an interesting fighter...for a mere mortal. Palutena is an actual goddess.

Snake vs. Ivysaur
Snake? Snake?!? SSSSSNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKEEEEE....!

Falco vs. Ganondorf
Ganondorf does not fight like that. It's a damn shame he didn't get his own unique moveset.

Roy vs. Villager
Villager is a great addition to the cast, and the internet memes are classic. Roy's a clone.

Bowser vs. Pichu
The King of the Koopas vs. a weaker, less capable unevolved Pikachu? C'mon now.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
Tough call, but Robin was a surprise addition and the unique moveset puts him/her above the 'Puff.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
Tough call, but I was super-excited to see Little Mac finally get a chance to shine in Smash. He gets the vote!

Pikachu vs. Charizard
This is a toss-up for me personally since I don't really use the Pokémon, but Pikachu has been there since the beginning.

Marth vs. Palutena
Palutena is a pretty interesting newcomer, while Marth is an inferior version of Lucina (in my opinion).

Snake vs. Ivysaur
Snake is such a unique character that I couldn't not choose him.

Falco vs. Ganondorf
A slower, strong Captain Falcon versus a more caffeinated Fox...

Roy vs. Villager
Villager is just such a fun character. Sorry Roy, you're not my boy.

Bowser vs. Pichu
No contest.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
I just don't like using the Pokémon, sorry.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
I like both of these character, but Mac is a more unique character.

Pikachu vs. Charizard
I miss Pokemon Trainer. Charizard as a standalone character just feels blah.

Marth vs. Palutena
Both are good. I like Kid Icarus stuff better.

Snake vs. Ivysaur
I'm still kinda iffy on Snake's inclusion in Smash, would you believe it? Ivysaur is my favorite playable Pokemon in Smash.

Falco vs. Ganondorf
Despite Ganondorf's moveset being weird, I still find him a lot of fun to play as.

Roy vs. Villager
No contest.

Bowser vs. Pichu
No contest again.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
Pretty tough. I don't use Robin as much, but I think his moveset is much fresher.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
I...kinda don't like ZSS. It's a weird choice for a playable character. Little Mac is well deserved and smartly implemented.

Pikachu vs. Charizard- Pikachu was my go-to in the original game. Fast, agile, amazing recovery, and still packing plenty of power.

Marth vs. Palutena - Never quite got to grips with Palutena.

Snake vs. Ivysaur- Meh, Snake.

Falco vs. Ganondorf- MUAHAHAHAHAHA. He may be a clone, but so is Falco. And Ganondorf is badass.

Roy vs. Villager- Meh Villager.

Bowser vs. Pichu- Emo Pikachu may be the worst Smash character ever.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff- I have fond memories of clearing he final Event Challenge of Melee with Jigglypuff's utterly broken moveset, lol.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac- I'll always have a soft spot for Samus, but I have to give props to the creativity that went into Mac's unique play mechanics.

Pikachu vs. Charizard
I love playing as 'Zard but Pikachu has been my #1 since the day I brought home Smash 64.

Marth vs. Palutena
I'll give it to Palutena because I like her character so much in Uprising.

Snake vs. Ivysaur
Say what you will, but so much love was put into Snake, including all those secret conversations with the Colonel, Mei Ling and Otacon.

Falco vs. Ganondorf
Ganondorf deserves a better moveset, but he's still a menacing and hard-hitting charatcer.

Roy vs. Villager
It is SO FUN TO PLAY AS Villager. Villager for Mayor!

Bowser vs. Pichu
Haha.

Robin vs. Jigglypuff
Jigglypuff needs a little tweak to make her the contender she used to be, but I still enjoy playing as her quite often. Her air control is top-notch, and Rest K.O.s are second to only the Homerun Bat.

Zero Suit Samus vs. Little Mac
I love me some Mac.
