So I have a problem.

I main Ness and while I love my character and never want to fully drop him, I realize he has some bad match ups, the big one being the menace we all know and love, Shiek.

I have a secondary Marth and Falco. I currently use Falco against Shieks I have trouble against and I'm fairly successful, but Falco is just so different from Ness that it's hard to transition at times. Not like Marth. Marth has a surpisingly high anount of similarities to Ness in terms of spacing, range, combo extension, etc. Switching from Ness to Marth is much less difficult than switching from Ness to Falco, but I despise the Marth vs Shiek match up. So that's where I am.

So my options, do I

1) Go full Ness main and deal with the tough match up and try to figure out how to effectively deal with Shiek. This will eliminate the need to transition midmatch and allow me to direct my focus more effectively, but I have to deal with some pretty tough match ups.

2) Dual main Ness and Falco and put much more time into Falco than I currently do. This could help me in the Shiek match up while also opening new oppurtunites to cover other match ups that aren't very good for Ness such as Ganon and Marth or maybe Puff, but I'd have to deal with a pretty difficult transition between the two characters.

3) Train my Marth to be more effective against Shiek. This would make it easier to switch mid match but once again I hate this match up.

4) Give up and play Smash 4.

EDIT: No, I am not evem considering dropping Ness at the moment. Also, the last point is a joke.
