...yeah what the heck does that do?--Oxico 21:37, December 24, 2007 (EST)

Thank you mysterious person who assisted me.--Oxico 22:49, December 29, 2007 (EST)

Oh and I need someone to put a hyperlink for reference. Gracias. --Oxico 06:30, January 4, 2008 (EST)

He fights for his friends and he smokes crack and heroine. That's why he's so strong.:) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.221.143.68 (talk • contribs) 18:20, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Who the hell has an unpredictable recovery move? Ike6481 (talk) 20:24, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Sonic...the spring just pops him up out of nowhere.Or G&W both very fast activation recoveries.Hatake91 (talk) 22:21, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

What does this have to do with this section??? - Gargomon251 (talk) 22:24, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

When Ike says "Aether", it sounds like he says "PIZZA". What does he like pizza or something.^_^IKEy911 (talk) 19:10, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Shouldn't we mention that Ike's "I fight for my friends" victory pose has become somewhat of an internet meme? KirbyfanNeox (talk) 23:34, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Recruiting

OK all who are willing. I need lots of help. I need all the moveset to look all alike. I need people willing to help! If you choose to accept this challenge, use Meta Knight's moveset as a perfect example. If you want to help the cause, leave your username under the category on my userpage called "Recruiting". This message is also there. Let's fix these movesets. --Oxico (talk) 20:49, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Whats with this?

I see redundancy all over his Pro section and Bias!I'm gonna need some help cleaning this article up... - Hatake91 (talk) 22:08, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

yeah, and on the pros & cons section it states that being a "medium-heavywieght" is a pro. THATS NOT A PRO! ITS A FREAKING WEIGHT! ALL WEIGHTS HAVE DISADVANTAGES & ADVANTAGES. Kperfekt722 (talk) 22:12, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

No, being heavy is good. However, weight tends to relate to speed, and being slow is in his cons. So it is perfectly fine. There is no bad point about being heavy. Ike6481 (talk) 22:14, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm currently about to condense his Pro's sections as half of it is not very notable, provides heavy opinion based facts or just like I said before, It's the same thing only in different forms.

• Very long range on most attacks.
• Most Aerials have good range and knockback.
• Attacks have some of the best knockback in the game

You see? - Hatake91 (talk) 22:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

There is a con to being heavy, and I don't think I saw it in there, but being heavy can make him a sucker for being chained across the map. MaxxDragon (talk) 20:53, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Tier Status?

Is there a reason he's second bottom of the Middle Tier, cause it doesn't say anything on the page, and I can't think of anything. --Riko (talk) 15:58, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Um... I'm not sure how to answer this, so I apologize, but maybe it's because Sheik is below him on the Middle Tier? -ACDCGAMER (talk) 05:51, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

It does say his recovery is bad... but how this is true, I fail to see Ike's Best Buddy^{Merry! Christmas!!}

Unless he's right under the ledge aether is useless.Smoreking^(T) _(c) 23:26, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Ike's Counter

Ok, I don't know who put in the article that Ike's counter doesn't last as long as Marth's, but that is not true at all. Actually, both Marth's and Ike's counters last for 59 frames, but Ike's counter frames start and end 6 frames after Marth's, meaning that it cannot be used for immediate countering, but it leaves Ike less vulnerable than Marth after the counter frames end. This video is proof, and it has also been explained in the Counter article. Just want to clear things up, that's all! -ACDCGAMER (talk) 06:20, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

If there's solid proof, add it. Life skill number eight, common sense. Blue Ninjakoopa^Talk 06:33, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Okay, apparently you didn't read my post clearly, as I already put solid evidence in it. See the link? It's a video that analyzes Marth and Ike's counters pretty throroughly. -ACDCGAMER (talk) 06:37, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Oops, sorry. I skim alot :P And don't give me that snazzy attitude/smart@$$ bullsh1t, alright? Seriously, it makes you look bad. Blue Ninjakoopa^Talk 07:01, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

That's OK, that's what I thought might have happened, but I was kind of astounded when you said that. I apologize for my attitude, I hope this doesn't happen again! XD -ACDCGAMER (talk) 07:32, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

resemblance to Siegfried

Did anyone else notice a slight resemblance to Soul Calibur's Siegfried in Ike? BlackMario ^P_K^M_N Trainer FTW! (talk) 18:55, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

According to my logic, that belongs on Ike, not here. You've got a little bit of time to move it before I delete it. Miles (talk) 19:03, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Moving it now. BlackMario^{We like Ike!}_{Talk to me.} 19:05, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Are you sure?

The trivia says Ike's chant is "We like Ike!" and that's a references to Eisenhower's slogan? How do you know it is, "We like Ike!" is so simple that it could easily have just been random and had no references at all. Thanks, TimeMaster Talk Main Contribs 14:25, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Elementary, my dear Wattless. Most chants will only call out the character's name, but Ike's (along with about five to seven others) chant is extended. You're right, there is no way of being competely sure if it is a reference to 'Ike' Eisenhower, but you have to admit, if a lot of people associate that chant with the former U.S. President, the point does have merit. Besides, some chants are external references. Snake's chant is a direct reference to the Metal Gear games (in the game/s it is heard on the Codec, usually coming from the Colonel, if Snake is killed in action). Wouldn't it be logical if Ike's chant was also a reference? Lightning Fox (talk) 04:54, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Ike's tier status...

Some, I forgot who, asked why Ike is somewhere in the middle tier. This is probably due to the fact that Ike is extremely powerful, and his counter can frequently save him from thing that would otherwise kill or heavily damage him, and possibly make his opponent suffer. However, some of his moves (F smash, for example) rely heavily on the opponent messing up, and he also has poor recovery, in addition to being very slow. Also, in this case I think ike's weight is a hindrance, often noticable when, say, you do a F smash and fall off a ledge, Ike might then do the N air, and, due to his weight, he falls to his inevitable doom, so it's not too unreasonable for him to be where he is in Tier position.
