What's your most hated/ favorite matchup, be it enjoyment of the fight, favor-wise or anything in general

Least favorite by far is Sonic, for two main reasons:
1. He's a character you need exceptional reflexes to fight competently, and I have average reaction speed at best, so I have to outsmart a Sonic player even more than usual to win. This reason was why I had a lot of difficulty against Sonic in Brawl despite him being a mediocre character with a horrid moveset in it.
2. I think he's currently the most OP character in the game, with a lot of stuff that is way too good or just flatout bullshit. So you have a character that I'm naturally predisposed to do worse against, and he's a candidate for best character in the game at a OP level, which results in the character I'm going to have a pretty bad time against.
I would rather fight a bracket full of prepatch Diddys, Sheiks, and Rosalinas, over fighting a single Sonic.
Least favorite matchup after Sonic is pretty much any ditto with my mains; not necessarily that I do worse in them (my ditto record since Brawl has been very favorable), but I just get less enjoyment out of fighting a character with the same exact abilities as mine and thus can't really flex the advantages of my character against them. They're also more stressing than other matchups out of a subconscious desire of "having to prove" something, despite me and anyone else the least bit knowledgeable about competitive smash knowing the ditto is just another matchup, and it alone doesn't determine who the better player with the character is.
There's currently no matchup I could single out as my favorite in Smash 4, I pretty much like every other matchup outside the aforementioned two.

So on your user page on the Smashwiki, you mentioned having played Radiant Dawn and Shadow Dragon. Have you played any other Fire Emblems since then?

I've played Awakening and liked it a lot, a lot more than Shadow Dragon but not quite above Radiant Dawn. I haven't played any other Fire Emblems since, I passed on Fates and have no interest in playing it. I may get Echos though, and at some point will probably look into playing the older FEs.

What music do you want to put in Smash 4? Especially for Pokémon tracks? Maybe give me some ideas of what I can put in the game too.

Generally all sorts of boss and final boss themes, and diversifying the soundtracks of the tournament legal stages. For Pokemon specifically, champion and legendary pokemon themes; I'm still very disappointed in how few of such themes ended up in the game.
If you want specific examples, you should watch my Brawl/PM videos, pretty much almost all the custom music you hear in them will get reused in my Smash 4 when I get around to modding it.

Now with the advent of the Kernel exploit, do you plan on adding/have you already added mods to Smash 4? If so, what mods do you want to add/have already added?

I haven't attempted modding yet; due to potential patches disrupting the modding process and thus preventing use of wifi if one remains on older versions to mod, I'm still waiting out a bit more to see if a new patch comes out that would prevent the use of mods. If the next patch leaves modding unhindered or if no patch comes out within the next month or so, I'll start getting into the mods.
The #1 type of mods I want are music hacks, especially to replace Smashville's and T&C's awfully boring soundtracks. Stage texture hacks are another type of mod I really liked back in Brawl.

What's your favourite stage in Smash?

Since Brawl it has been Halberd, and it has been massively disappointing to me that most tournaments ban it nowadays. On the usual seven stagelist we see, it would be Dreamland. Among universally banned stages, it's Norfair.

What would you say are ROB's best options in neutral?

Gyro, nair, and fair are the core of Rob's neutral. Learning how to use each of them is vital to success with Rob beyond low level play.

Do you think Corrinor Bayonetta are overpowered in how they fight? Espically Bayo with her multi-combo freeze time bullshit?

Corrin is really annoying, but doesn't seem to have anything that overpowered really. Probably a competent character that one can be reasonably successful with, but not one I expect to routinely see in the upper echelons.
Bayonetta I find highly concerning, and Witch Time is ridiculously broken, with it's ridiculously high reward for such a little risk of using it and lack of strong counterplay. It remains to be seen though if that can translate into oppressive results.

Would you have preferred if one of the other top ballot characters (Shovel Knight, Shantae, K.Rool, etc.) got in Smash 4 rather than Bayonetta?

K. Rool was my second most wanted newcomer after Ridley for the base game, and I'm really dumbfounded a legitimate heavyweight newcomer wasn't added at all (Bowser Jr. has the weight of one, but doesn't play like one at all). I would have taken K. Rool's inclusion over Bayonetta unquestionably.
I really like Shovel Knight and find his prospective moveset to be really interesting, but his inclusion would have been even more dubious than Bayonetta's. I would have liked his inclusion personally, but it's not one I could justify.
I never understood how Shantae became one of the big faces of potential DLC newcomers, and her actually being included would have left me even more bewildered than Bayonetta's inclusion did.

So what are your thoughts on Corrin and Bayonetta in Smash 4?

I'll respond to the Cloud questions in this one:
Cloud: I don't care at all for his inclusion; I never got into the Final Fantasy series outside the original Tactics, and Cloud as a character never appealed to me at all. I respect his inclusion however and understand why he's such a big deal.
Corrin: Damn, I never thought I would dislike a character's inclusion more than Dark Pit's. Going into the direct I was expecting Inklings to be the "worst case scenario" inclusion for myself (like Cloud, while I would understand and respect their inclusion, I have no interest in them whatsoever), but then a character is added, from an even newer game that hasn't even released worldwide yet, from a significantly overrepped series. Corrin's design and moveset additionally fails to interest me at all, nor do I find it to be exceedingly unique. And unlike Dark Pit, there's no "well we wouldn't have been able to get another character instead of him" consolation. I dislike Corrin's inclusion so much, that if I wasn't a competitive player, I wouldn't be buying him. In retrospect, Corrin's inclusion, combined with Wolf not being brought back, also makes me dislike the return of Roy, who I was initially ambivalent towards based on how the rest of the DLC would go and how he would be implemented.
Bayonetta: Yet another character I have absolutely no interest in, and another questionable inclusion at that. I don't care for the whole "fitting in" argument (I am a full-fledged supporter of Snake after all), but I find it extremely dubious that she legitimately was the winner among "*realizable characters"; she appeared in the various polls but never performed exceptionally well in any of them, her hardcore following isn't that big, and the "silent casual majority" argument doesn't work for her when her series hasn't been successful. I just don't she how it's actually possible for her to have legitimately won.The exact results of the ballot, if they did any control for bot voting, and what exactly Sakurai meant by "*realizable characters", probably will never be revealed, so it'll remain a forever mystery that can never be conclusively argued if Bayonetta legitimately won or if Sakurai just went with what he wanted to do. Overall I don't like her inclusion, but am not that bothered by it like I am with Corrin's, and I would be more accepting of her if it could be conclusively proven that she was the legitimate best performing character on the ballot among doable characters.
