[u]For the Wii U[/u]
Fox is my main for 1 v 1 matches. Good speed though he lacks a good way to K.O people other than his up-smash and up-air.
Great at racking up damage, but his attacks and rolls are sometimes too short distance wise. Still a force to be reckoned with.
Bowser is my alternate (which is shocking since I use a fast then a slow character). If you've ever fought a good aggressive Bowser player........it's just terrifying. You can't get away from him!
[u]For Melee[/u]
All about Captain Falcon. All his air moves have knockback and he is crazy fast. I love spiking or landing that power knee over and over.

Lucario & Shulk: I LOVE Lucario because I always forget to dodge, the mass damage that can be caused by a maxed Lucario's basic A-combo is absurd, complemented by side-A, d-air and smashes, you never have to even use a special. And Shulk is easily the most versatile close range fighter, his unprecedented control over the flow of a fight is astonishing, between his Visions and Monado Arts, he has the versatility to counter almost any character, I personally like a one-two punch of Buster followed by Smash.
