What are your opinions on Fox? Do you believe he's nerfed, better, or the same? - GalaxiaD (talk) 00:07, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I guess I'll start this off. I believe he's the same. Still good enough to be top tier, but somewhat surpassed by a few people. - GalaxiaD (talk) 23:01, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

HEY! I do quite fine with Fox....I even beat Oxico's Pit with him. Zmario (talk) 23:13, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

I haven't played Melee to a highly competetive level, but I know that some of Fox's characteristics have been nerfed. His Blaster doesn't cover as much distance and his Reflector no longer has fixed knockback useful for shine combos. His Up Smash, Uair, and Fire Fox don't seem to be nerfed very much.

Fox has improved air speed and his fair gives a floaty effect now, so that helps him. Still, I think his biggest nerf has to be the removal of L-Canceling, because Fox is one of the lightest characters in the game and he can't survive at percentages as high as a lot of characters. Still, spammable air dodging makes up for that some.

I think that Fox as a whole has been nerfed, but not to the extent that a lot of people say. He can still do well against the rest of the cast and has a very good kill move. --TStick (talk) 23:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
