SDCC2014 | Nintendo Challenge: Live @ SDCC & Smash 3DS Tournament

Bowser definitely seems to be newbie friendly for FFA, which is why we've seen success. Still don't know how he'll fare when played competitively.

Probably not too well considering how punishable all of his moves are, mid tier I'd say.

Easily punishable moves + defensive game, doesn't generally work out.
 
If anyone wanted evidence that Smash 4 is campy, they no longer need to use Zero as evidence. That Sheik play...
I feel like that was due facing Bowser. You see how Toon Link isn't playing very defensively against Bowser and doing poorly? Sheik was playing defensively and still couldn't pull off the win. Toon Link is getting dominated by Bowser in this match.

It seems like Bowser is a character you want to play more defensively against. But I'm guessing that is more due to the unfamiliarity with the game and it would probably be not that way as more people know the Bowser match up.
These are all giant walkoff stages that will be banned at tournaments.
It isn't a walk-off stage.

Could be that it's against Bowser, but that Sheik did win in Sudden Death. I do think the Sheik could've approached more, but if approaches are very punishable, you'll see camping more.
 
bowser only no items final destination

Edit: beaten like that toon link

LOL dude! At least it's so evident its common sense now...

But really that sheik needs to step up her game, does she even press A?
A theory is that Bowser encourages aggresive play we're not seeing from anyone. That last luigi only used dash A and this guy's reads are the only that a true smash player would do. The other guys are clueless...

EDIT:
None of what is going on here is indicative of characters needing nerfs of buffs.

Of course dude, doing it for comic relief... The truth is he is the best player around, other ppl are soft and slow. Sheik could beast everyone out but that Sheik player sucked hard...
 
I dunno, I think the Bowser just wasn't playing as great against camping. This current match-up of Bowser/Sheik is having Bowser just destroy the camp attempts.

If the sheik was playing defensive properly, the bowser would be getting destroyed, his moves are way too unsafe to be used as a good offense so all you need to do is block or roll until he whiffs, this sheik is doing a load of stupid shit.
