A lot of people have Super Smash Bros. Brawl and played it for various reasons, one of which is to play as a certain character. For me, I got it because I saw that the Blue Blur himself - Sonic the Hedgehog - was in this game, and I was so excited. It took me one defeated Captain Falcon and a 5-time go at Tabuu (on EASY!) in the Subspace Emissary to finally unlock the speedy hedgehog, and now I play as him every time, and alongside different characters such as Ike, Kirby, Mr. Game & Watch (really helps when my team is behind, because his 9 gets us back in 1st), Squirtle, and even...Captain Falcon? I guess you could say: "WE DON'T TECH THOSE (Pardon the pun)!" Each person has different perspectives on how they play Smash Bros., and I explain how I play as Sonic in SSBB.

Note: This strategy explains if you are on the offense, you know what to do if you are playing defense.

Strategy for Sonic the Hedgehog
Step 1: Up Taunt as if Sonic is saying: "Piece of cake! This should be easy!" Step 2: Get things started with a dash attack to speed things up a bit. Step 3: Use a Down Smash to send your opponent flying and really rack up some damage. Step 4: Pack a punch by using a Forward Smash to REALLY get the damage in. If it KOs your opponent (ex. Mario), use a side taunt so you can tell them: "You're too slow!" However, if it DOESN'T KO, move onto Step 5. Step 5: Use the Up Smash to send your opponent into the sky, and get that damage in. If it KOs, use your side taunt, if not continue on. Step 6: Ok, now its time to use your special attacks. Start by using a Homing Attack (neutral special) a couple times (2-3 times) to get in the game. Step 7: Occasionally, Down Taunt to say:"Come on! Step it up!" Step 8: Combine your Down Special and your Side Special to REALLY get rollin'. At this point, you'll be "having a ball." LITERALLY! Step 9: If Step 8 sends your opponent into the sky, use your Up Special to chase after them and combine ALL your Air Attacks for some aerial combat. Taunt if KOs, if not, move on. Step 10: Repeat all steps as necessary. Repeat Step 7 as many times as desired.

What's YOUR strategy?
I want YOU to explain your moveset in the comments. How do you play as a certain character? Let me know so I can try it out with Sonic and other characters.
