The hardest part about playing Steve is not getting stabbed on the way out the venue

It’s obviously bowser. Do you know how hard it is to spam down b and f smash 27 times in a row and still win?

THE HARDEST CHARACTER TO PLAY IS RANDOM DUH

I’d personally add Mega Man to this list because of his reliance on projectiles, a lack of scrapping options, and requiring to know effective item usage to get kills.

the fact that IC's didn't even get a honorable mentioned is diabolical.

Marth because Marthritis will always kill your momentum and devolve everything into a 9th inning slugfest

I can see your argument for calling Snake hard, but IC's is more difficult BY A LANDSLIDE 😂

I think an honorable mention should go to Duck Hunt. I groan whenever people say this is a skill less character.<br><br>Duck Hunt has so much tech behind him that you have to learn if you wanna maximize your playing potential and damage output. Can has so many different mechanics that you need to learn to use and you have to be good at manipulating it for mixups, throw combos, and kills. You need to learn how to do side B strings and also side B into back air or up air for kill confirms. Knowing how and when to use side B is pretty difficult and only the best Duck Hunts in the world, Jagabata and Zawg use it correctly 90% of the time. Down B isn’t anything that requires too much skill, but knowing how to zone with it and limit options can be difficult. You need to mixup your game, for example: after you down B, if you went in for a grab last time, try going for up air so you can anti-air the opponent if they try to jump. Duck Hunt’s recovery is also SUPER vulnerable, and you need to learn how to mixup your recovery and use can to cover yourself while you recover, which is a lot harder to master than it sounds. This is just talking about the specials btw. All in all, Duck Hunt can be a really good character and he (in my opinion) is super fun to play, but this requires you to learn A LOT about the character and study him. (Written by a proud DH main)

A little surprised ZSS wasn't mentioned at all considering she's largely considered one of the most difficult to play, especially effectively. Inconsistent especially post nerfs, moves legit just don't work sometimes so she struggles to kill if things don't line up, aside from bair and zair her attacks are actually not very good at coverage. No grab combos so opponents can just shield against her, and being so jump focused makes her pretty predictable to fight.<br><br>Very evasive character similar to Sheik but explodes easily when caught and has to work pretty hard to secure a kill if she doesn't get it early.

Sheik can be a very polarizing character because she lacks damage but man the fact that you can gimp and overall camp characters with poor recovery is a good relief, they need to buff her in the next installment.
