As a sheik player I have secondaries because I generally play lots of characters, many before shiek. Even the top level sheik reps like VoiD, Mr R, EIM, then kameme and even zackray that one time, all have plenty of great characters But also some matchups are bad and secondaries can be worth it. Then steve came out and secondaries are definitely worth it, really bad matchup for her
Has Sheik ever been a solo main character other than Melee? Because a lot of People in Smash 4 played Sheik alongside their preferred character from what I remember.
He's the most forgiving fighter by a landslide. You can be average as hell at the game and still play bowser to his fullest because of how basic but powerful his kit is.
It's from tournaments so I think it's pretty biased toward stronger characters and also to the sorts of characters people play after playing a lot of the game. Most Kirby players I experienced where newer players.
It’s because kirby in competitive is not the greatest and can get destroyed pretty easily, but he’s very casual friendly and can be fun to play and rewarding, for example, his inhale and hammer is op in regular smash but in competition is sucks and is booty cheeks
@thequeenvsslime1 Kingdom Hearts has a recurring theme with the number 13 (and 7), from the name of the game being 13 letters to the villainous group in the game. Smash Bros even honored this by making Sora the 13th DLC character and being released released 13 days after he was announced (Oct 5-18 2021) in update 13.0. He also was the 7th DLC fighter for Fighters Pass 2. Tl;dr 13 (and 7) are significant numbers in the series, so Sora being #13 in the list is both ironic and appropriate.
Its a common thing you see that the popular characters are also often finger breakers. Joker is really strong and appears a lot in top play, but is so physically and technically demanding to play that nobody solo mains him.
Here's some tips to win against Ness by a Ness main: BEWERE OF PK FIRE, Play defensively, swords, jugle him and predict when he is going to use PK Fire. Tl;dr: Outsmart the Ness.
@@The_Gabeit depends on what type of recovery you have. Some multihit recoveries can clank with the yoyo hitboxes and grab ledge (lucas), some have a huge hitbox that can outspace the yoyo (chrom) or they can hit ness through the stage (ridley).

Glad Terry makes it in honorable mentions here, I started using him for a while now, and I gotta say I'm not too disappointed in him, except for when it comes to recover sometimes.
I’ve been a Lucas main since the brawl era, it’s heartwarming to see that he’s #1 for once, not forgotten like the countless times before; LUCAS MAINS RISE UP
