    Little mac vs Kazuya looks like a very painful matchup. Kazuya's effective range is almost the same as Mac's but he gets so much more reward off his combo starters and they usually end with his opponent above him, which is the worst place for Mac to be in.

    Very good point, plus it’s super armor vs. “super hit stun”, if you will. One leads to perma-wins in neutral, the other leads to always gaining advantage off a read. 80:20 Kazuya. *Disclaimer* My 80:20 prediction is based on standardization and controlled environment. Which all character, not player, or player-character, but simply character predictions are based on. Making them the same level. As in, a Master Mac player vs. a Master Kazuya player. Which isn’t what we got here, Peanut is a master Little Mac, but Riddles (though he might be the best) hasn’t mastered Kazuya, yet. It’s still too soon, but once he does it’ll a beat down of Little Mac.

    I think their match-up can go either way, but Mac can't make nearly as many mistakes as Kazuya is allowed to make, and Kazuya has several moves that instantly kill Lil Mac at 70+% in certain situations. 🤔 I think Mac would win more if K.O. punch could be hit confirmed, but I don't think it's been buffed yet.

    What an excellent showing from both players. It is truly a treat to watch a battle between two brawler-type characters who are at their strongest when on the ground. And while Riddles is of considerable skill, there's no denying the unfortunate fact that Kazuya does what Mac can do better along with so much more.

    @@starter497 I think you’re right, but fundamentally, he shares many aspects of neutral game with Little Mac. Even if the character is more complex to pick up, Peanut has not only the dexterity to serve Kazuya’s kit justice, but his game plan is already very similar to Little Mac, so there wouldn’t necessarily have to be a paradigm shift like there would be with, say, Mii Brawler. I think the main issue Peanut would have is having fun with the character competitively. It’s a matter of principle. Either way, I can respect it if Peanut doesn’t want to switch to Kazuya, but I would find it very interesting to see exactly how a Little Mac player would optimize him.

It's why many shotos and Terry main struggle with kazuya outside of riddle even tho they are both grounded characters. Only riddles and maybe Ronin are having success with kazuya after transition from shotos/Terry to kazuya. As a person who use to play a lot of Lil Mac in smash and a kazuya main, I legit see no similarities besides both are grounded fighters. Their ground game isnt comparable because it's just too different.

    @@starter497 I happen to see a lot of similarities with their neutral game. I guess you see more of an objective, in-depth picture while I have more of a superficial perspective. The armored attacks, up-special finisher, OHKO moves. In practice, they’re very different, but in approach, Kazuya strikes me as a more complex, vastly versatile version of Little Mac. It makes sense, too. Little Mac is intended to be more limited. I appreciate your input, given that you’ve played both characters so extensively. You would understand better than me. I only understand them theoretically. Again, I would be happy to see what Peanut can do with Kazuya, just to satisfy my curiosity. I’m surprised you don’t even think the characters are at least a little similar.

    I think this matchup is just tough for little Mac. Both fighters need to be grounded to use their best moves. Both get bullied in the air, but only kazuya has aerials that can capitalize. Mac has better frame data and is faster, but kazuya gets more payoff and survives much longer. Mac’s speed makes him harder to keep away from, but in this matchup he can’t avoid playing to kazuya’s strengths nor can he punish kazuya’s weaknesses like other characters

    This is why I enjoy watching Peanut, and other Macs. They don't have to win the tourney, they just show they can get this far and put up a strong fight until the end. That alone proves their skill and dedication. Anyone can win with a high tier, these guys bring the thunder with the underdogs and make the crowd happy!

Yet, I still feel like I have no idea what I’m doing and I feel like I’m missing something. Lol I think I just need to play more honest. I haven’t played it much since I finished the story and I pick it up a bit every time a new dlc came out. But I still don’t have that one character that I feel really good with. I mean, my highest score in classic mode was a 8.5 intensity level with Mega man. But yet he wasn’t my favorite to play as. He is fun in his own way. Just not as a main fighter. I just realized how much I’m rambling. Lol thanks for sticking it out if you made it this far. 😂

    Kazuya has more powerful tools and more tools in general at his disposal, but you gotta admit, he played to Little Mac’s strengths, which made for an entertaining battle. Ultimately, though, Little Mac has less room for error than Kazuya. Even at 0%. Shows just how much work it takes to take a Little Mac this far. That kind of optimization would be terrifying in the hands of a character like Kazuya.
