Sonic, what do you think of him?

Im not saying you cant use more then one character, i just said it takes more time. You would be better off using one character, getting good with him, then switching to the next. That's what i do. But for you "just your average kid", being inexperienced with bowser, decent with sonic, and idk how you are with lucas, is not something i would recommend. Get good with one character, then switch to the next, that is exactly what i did.

Link>>>>Olimar>>>>Wolf

in that order. Working on Diddy next.

Well, hes fun to use, and i like to use him.Hes a fine character, and im glad nintendo put him in.

If you just said that in the begining we wouldn't have had this debate. Thats what I was saying. (Well, in a way.)

I think Sonic is only good for dodging opponents and for being fast. 6/10

riiiiiiiiight well okay.

Originally I did like Sonic. But that was only the first five times i played with him. His move sets are so redundant and it makes him somewhat of a boring character. I mean he is good if you use him right(which I can do) but he is just dull.

Well a lot of smash bros is repetitive.

A real waste of time. My hopes were crushed when i first played with sonic in SSE.

I' m only going to say this once, PRACTICE!

Someone else can debate with you about it. If they want. just leave me out of it.

I know I'm jumping randomly here,But I rather Sonic in Super Smash Bros.
I was kinda dissapointed with Sonic's move set,but you just gotta learn to adapt to it and turn into your advantage.I have gotten quite good with sonic and pull some nasty combos,but some people prefer power to speed,and you gotta respect that.

Not really, no, i don't have to respect anything. Especially sonic.

SONIC, you are a WASTE.

Sonic is one my my fave characters in Brawl, alongside the likes of Olimar, Wolf, Pit and Marth (plus some others I'm ok with, how's that for variety). His speed makes him quite a good dodger and his attacks can set up for some good juggles and combos. His final smash can also easily KO opponents. Granted, several of his moves involve spinning, but I don't see criticisms at the likes of, for example, Marth for doing nothing but swinging a sword, or Olimar for relying on throwing Pikmin. They also mean that he's unpredictable, hard to tell what sort of move (or spin) he's away to do.

Anyone care to reason against that?

well most of sonics spin moves do pretty much the same damage, so there is really no difference between moves besides the fact you can jump with one spin attack opposed to the other (woop-dee-doo). Olimar can do many things with his pikmin, and relies on them. All of his attacks do different amounts of damage, and the fact that you need pikmin to survive with olimar is unique. And for marth, well, at least he can change color, and can reflect attacks.

I totally think Sonic is meant for beating the living *#%& out of his opponents in Brawl and if you disagree with me then we can have a fight. I will be Sephiroth. You can be ... Yugi Mutou.

1.- SONIC RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!
2.- My Umbreon and Espeon can beat your EEVEE evolutions
3.- SHADOW RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok first, stop triple posting, edit your last posts. Second, stop caps spamming. Third, most of your posts make no sense.

OT: Finally, umbreon is terrible, and my lvl 100 shiny espeon will own you, as well as my shiny Vaporeon, and my jolteon.

So now we are talking about how Sonic's colors are not that different, not like that matters anyway. Also, I am pretty good with Sonic and I don't use his spins as much as others might. I actually use his A moves which a pretty good. Sonic is a good character and I'm sure plenty of people have mastered him. On the styles part, I use Ike, a slow guy, Link, a medium guy, Lucario, another medium, and Sonic, a fast one. And I'm pretty good with all of them. I think people can use all the styles. With time, someone could kick anyones butt with any character. That is all I have for now.

ok ok first of all lucario is fast

Um not really Meta kinght is like on the border on medium and fast and hes faster than lucario. And I don't like sonic's spin moves.

Something came up a few days ago in this thread, whereby someone stated that by playing multiple characters they were gaining multiple styles which would help them.

I disagree with both that person and KOH for supporting them. The only thing you gain from playing another character is their playstyle for when you play as them. Learning to play Bowser doesn't improve my ability with Sonic. It might help me learn Bowsers moves more and defeat him easier (but the same could be achieved by versing other Bowsers online, etc.) but it certainly doesn't help to play one character in the hopes you'll be better with another.

You may argue that experience with some characters such as Jigglypuff's float in, damage the opponent and float out style will help when you begin to learn Wario who does much of the same, and I agree. This doesn't apply to the likes of Bowser and Sonic though, who don't share similar qualities. Also on that point, being good at Jigglypuff before playing Wario would only help you adapt quicker to Wario's playstyle and help you be familiar with what you need to do when you first pick him up, but this only goes so far until the point where even players who weren't good with Jigglypuff will still be as good as your Wario, because you've both practiced him and have roughly the same skill level as each other.
