Well, it has been quite a while since we've had one of these, so I guess I'll post. I'm very partial to Kirby in either game, though I don't like what they did with his control setup in Melee. But I'm not exactly an advanced player, either.

I'm not fond of marth as I am with Roy. It's a shame they're taking Roy out but keeping Marth in Brawl. Really lame if you ask me.

I like Roy, Link, Shiek, Y. Link, Ness, Fox, Falco, Samus, and I try to use Peach more often. My best characters would be Fox, Link, and Roy.

YAY Marth's in Brawl! Sorry, but I'm partial to the blue-haired one.

I haven't played recently, but I want to practice when I can. I'll be focusing on Marth, Peach, and Jigglypuff.

KIRBY! My prefered character! But I'll use most any of them when I'm not looking to win...

However, my best ones seem to be: Kirby, Mewtwo, Mr. Game and Watch, and Jigglypuff...

yeah. marth IS better than roy. however, roy is still an excellent character to use if you know how to use him right. though he takes more skill (middle tier) he can still be a strong character. speaking of which...there are too many people who kill their C-sticks using marth and roy. it's really cheap.

I'm good with most characters, but my favored ones:

-Roy - explosions are fun. =D
-Ganondorf - again, explosions. XD
-Mewtwo - hard as all insanity to control, but worth it if you get the hang of him.
-Mario - just all-around pretty good.
-Kirby - I don't use the powers. I have other ways of taking people out with him...
-Pichu - same reason ikimasu gave. I like beating people with the supposedly "most useless" one (and the goggles!!).
-Fox - fast (almost to a fault...), which can be pretty nice.
-Captain Falcon - same as Ganondorf, but faster.


And to bring up an interesting character to see for Brawl I heard someone mention:

MissingNo.

I chose Pikachu to begin with because I liked Pokemon, and I was very good with him(I think VEEEEEEEEEEEEERY). I stopped playing for a while, and picked up again, lost some of it, but I was still pretty good. Now, what about now a days

Does anyone have a link that provides information on this? This is the first I've heard of them removing Roy.

My favorite chars in Melee are Pikachu and Marth. I like playing with any of the other characters with the exception of Bowser.

I like to hop between Link and Zelda/Shiek... Funny that they're from the same game but I like both of them for their fighting ability.
Roy is fun too but I kinda mastered him so I got bored with him, still fun to watch rein firey death though? ^^

My best characters are, in order of best to not quite best,

Roy (Simple to maneuver, with strong attacks)
Mewtwo (Me and my friends discovered a VERY strong combo that is hard to pull off, but hard to get out of)
Pikachu (My fav from the 1st game :P)
Falco (Fast and more cocky than Fox :D)

Sheik is my main fighter, although I've also used Link and Fox in the past. I just love how fast she is.

It's just the pits that my brother finally figured out how to kick Sheik's butt with Falco. Ah, I remember the good old days off Super Smash Bros: lots of yelling and arguing, with my brother claiming that he'd been going easy on me everytime he lost and me accusing him of being cheap for always using Falco, and then some more yelling.

It's probably for the best that the box is now gathering dust, it's been alot more peaceful in the family ;D

Actually, when I read through the faq it mentions that a rumor was started which claimed the developer had stated that some chars would be taken out (it didn't say any names), but it was found to be a complete rumor. I didn't see anything talking about Roy in that thread.

(Personally, I like Red Marth. He is quite literally one of the most powerful characters in the game, just very hard to master. Not that I'm close to mastering him, but I'm having fun trying. I'm too much of a brawler to do it quickly. I can beat three level nines in a free-for-all, but that's about it. Plus he his fighting style fits me personally (tho', again, when I play games I'm too much of a brawler.)
