Why hello there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Today I'm gonna explain my experience and what basically happens when you play for glory!
(I'm taking this from only the 3ds version because I don't have a Wii U ( ͡; ͜ʖ ͡; ) )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Le Part 1~
~For Glory in a Nutshell~
Let's start with the characters you will most likely be up against on for glory.
1. Captain Falcon

Captain Falcon is probably the character that I run into the most on For Glory, and they all do the exact same thing, over and over and over again.
Keep an eye out for when you play for glory and do you notice that, when you are against a Captain Falcon immediately they will:
1. Do the "Show yo moves" taunt and then run straight to you and grab you attempting to Down throw you, so that they can hit you with a Fair which always fails
2. Run straight to you and grab you, to down throw you into Fair which will fail.
3. Run and Dash attack
4. Run and Side B
5. "FALCON KICK"
6. The smart Captain Falcons will grab you and Down throw you into Uair.
Captain Falcons are really really easy to punish as they like to randomely throw out moves.
They also always like to dunk when you are off stage and they always ALWAYS FAIL.
And then you can take advantage and either punish or get back to the stage safely.
2. Mario

Mario is another character I run into on For Glory, and he is more annoying to fight against then Captain Falcon as he has projectiles and he can cape. And then there's that Down throw to up tilt, which every single Mario uses, and its practically inescapable if you're not playing as Jigglypuff as she floats out of it.
Marios will always spam their fire balls when they aren't up close and aren't grabbing you.
They tend to always try to grab you early on and if you play a character with projectiles, will use the yellow carpet ever chance they get so that they can deflect the projectile.
3. Link

Link has a reputation on For Glory as being one of the most annoying characters to play against.
As all of the people who as play him on for glory tend to spam B as much as they can, and then the Term "For Glory Links" was made.
This is what all Links are displayed as, making a viable character, seen as an annoying, spamming character, when in reality he can be used way better. But not on For Glory, its just an archery competition on there.
~Most Annoying Characters~
~Link~

As said before Link has a reputation as the spammiest character in Smash.
Links will repeatedly spam their bow along with the boomerang as well making it more of a pain to get to him that it should be, then when you finally get to him he will roll out of the way and go to the other side of the side beginning the cycle over again.
When I see Link on my bottom screen, I cry on the inside as it is just painful to fight against him.
~Sonic~

Sonic is just, the most annoying, most irritating character in Smash Bros.
Chewing on shards of glass, would be more fun than playing against a Sonic on For Glory.
Because all they ever seem to do, is spam Side B over and over and over and over again, making them make me want to just quit Smash Bros, because of loss of faith in the players of the Game.
Also, I asked a friend who absolutely hates Sonic, what he thinks about playing against Sonics, here is what he said.
"Whenever I see a Sonic on For Glory, my hopes instantly sink. My dreams crashed. My heart shattered. Everything about me is tarnished. For Sonic is the spammiest, most annoying, tackiest character in the entire rouster. Side B, Side B, Side B. Don't Sonic players know that there are other moves? People who play Sonic are reincarnated versions of people such as Hitler, Pol Pot and other homicidal maniacs. Lock them up and throw away the key." ~Haraldo McCano
True words of wisdom
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Modes~
For Glory Smash
This is the Game mode on For Glory where its basically a Free For All, where there are no items and its a timed match of 2 minutes.
Basically on the 3ds this one of the laggiest thing you will ever play, unless you get that magical room where everyone has good WiFi

Praise the Smash God for he has performed a miracle!
A way to do well is to steal kills in it, and play a character that's heavy, and hits hard with good recovery. Like DeDeDe ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡~) fwafwafwafwa
Next up is
For Glory Team Smash
Just like For Glory Smash, there are 4 people and 2 minutes on the clock but so are in 2 different teams, consisting of 2 people.
And this is just as laggy as For Glory smash (on 3ds) ( ͡; ͜ʖ ͡; )
But it can be fun if the lag isn't making 2 minutes turn in 20 minutes.
And finally
My personal favourite and the one I spend the most time on
For Glory 1 v 1
This is a 5 minute match with each player getting 2 stocks.
This mode is probably the most popular out of the 3 and I personally love playing it.
I personally prefer stocks to any other type of matches. And there are no items so it is all skill based or in some cases how much can you annoy you opponent to make them rage quit ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
This mode is also not very laggy (depends on your WiFi)
And you can find people from new people trying to find their feet, to complete and utter spammers, to people who know how to juggle and combo and such.
But then there are the people who make it their mission to ruin your experience playing for glory.
For example the Links and the Sonics said above.

~Le Part 2~
~Zelda in a Nutshell~

~Tier~

( ._.) Oh
C+
~My Oppinion~
B or B-
Zelda is probably the most underrated character on the game.
As she is actually a very good character.
As I don't actually Main or Secondary Zelda I am thinking of picking her up as a secondary, because I love actually playing as her.
~Matchups~
(These may not be acccurate but these are matchups in my opinion)
Good Matchups
Captain Falcon
Doctor Mario
Ganondorf
Donkey Kong
Little Mac
OK Matchups
Samus
Link
Sheik
Fox
Falco
Pit
Dark Pit
Villager
Bad Matchups
Mario
Zero Suit Samus
Sonic
Duck Hunt Duo
Pikachu
~Moves~
I'm just gonna fall them what I see them as
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A
Neutral A~ Talk to the Hand
Front Tilt~ Back Hand
Up Tilt~ Waving at that one friend
Down Tilt~ You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out, in, out, you shake it all about
Side Smash~ I TOLD YOU TO NOT TOUCH THE DRESS
Up Smash~ I wave my hands up in the air sometimes.
Nair~ You spin me right round baby right round
Fair~ ROUNDHOUSE IN THE AIR
Dair~ Taste the might of my Prada High Heels
Uair~ Cus baby you're a firework
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
B
Neutral B~ Diamonds are a girls best friends
Side B~ More Fireworks
Down B~ Save me, my brave knight
Up B~ Beam me up Scotty
~Combos~
Most used one is Down Throw into Nair
Neutral A into Dash attack
Up tilt into Nair
Down Tilt into Nair
Down Tilt into Fair
Kill Moves
She has the standard Smash attacks
Side Smash has very good knockback and and has a good hit box.
Up Smash has very good knockback and not as a good hit box as Side Smash.
And Down Smash has the worst range and worst knockback out of the smash attacks but can kill
Sweet Spotted Fair kills early
Sweet Spotted Dair can Dunk
Her most reliable kill move in my opinion is Down Throw into Uair
Front tilt can kill at high percent
Her throws can also kill at high percent
Her Teleport/Recovery/Up A, the second part of it can kill opponents
~Extra~
Zelda can fox trot
Zelda has a bitchy "BYE BITCH" taunt
Zelda has my favourite crouch in the game, because she looks like she doesn't give a shit when she is crouching.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I really don't know what else to say ( ͡; ͜ʖ ͡; )
So I'll end it off now ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

To be fair this was before I was on amino so I didn't know :joy:
You know that mario link and Sonic are all supposed to be played annoyingly right? Especially sonic, cuz that's the only option he has. You can't complain about the correct way to play
...
In the wii u most people choose captain falcon, toon link, all of the dlc, little mac :joy: ,peach, trolley characters, ect
Zelda is bottom tier because her frame data is horrible. If you understood the frame data and how some of her moves are just straight up bad, you'll understand :/
Like yes, some of her moves are bad like the fact that one of her best killing moves has to be sweet spotted. But Zelda does have some combos, (small at that) but they do build up damage easily. Her throws aren't horrible as they do have kill power and her down throw can combo.
Probably the move that is most underrated and over looked is Zelda's Knight. It actually has very good kill power and can drag opponents off stage is fully charged up. So Little Macs have a tough time against Zelda. But it does come out slow at that.
And yes her frame data isn't great but its not the worst thing in the world. Because if you play her properly it isn't a problem
Reply to: Penguin
...Which is true with any character. I agree with everything you've said. The problem with Zelda's Down Special though is because of the long, held in one place charge of the move. Used right away without charging, yes it's alright. You need to get a good read though for it to be any good, and any knowledgeable player could dodge out of the way of the move or simply jump over the move and hit Zelda anyways.
It seems like you don't like For Glory, so why not just use Anther's ladder?
