If your main could only use five attacks, what would they be?

[euklyd]

Blatantly stolen from a thread on /r/smashbros, but I think that their rules (three moves, including grab/throws) are too limiting.

Rules:
Your main (or other character) can use:
- Five (5) attacks of your choice.
- Grab.
- One throw of your choice. If you want another throw, it counts as one of your five attacks.
- Defensive options (shield, rolls, spotdodge, airdodge) are free.
- Any movement you can do with only jump and the control stick is allowed, obviously.

Keep in mind you may wish to have a recovery (which gives characters like Yoshi and Jigglypuff a slight edge). Tethers (zairs) count as grabs.

[spoiler=Example]Link (SSB4):

Attacks:

- Bomb

- Utilt

- Bair or Nair

- Spin Attack

- Jab

Throw:

- Dthrow

Depending on matchup I might swap something out for Uair.

doesn't ike get better conversions off of uthrow than dthrow?

People always avoid my nair or fair with Uthrow, Dthrow is better for follow ups. Maybe it works better at lower %? I find dthrow more reliable overall.

Why do Rosalina like this move? It seems like an easy version of powershielding and unlike powershielding, you can't punish afterwards. Not to mention you also have a Luma to absorb projectiles for you. Has niche uses like steal Ness's recovery, but is it worth a move slot? I'm genuinely curious.

given that you can perform a footstool by pressing "jump" I'd say so

I'll let them slide for Project M as well, even if they aren't done with "jump"

also I'm surprised melee fox is lacking vertical kill tools

How are you ever going to kill without Fair? Or any other kill move really?

I meant to put that in there...(I put f-tilt instead of f-air). I'll go fix that.

he doesn't need them, shine spike and bair gimp everything. nair sets up for shield pressure and combos into bair and itself, and lasers are icing on the cake. firefox just for the invincibility stall which he doesn't even need on yoshi's story.

In this case, if I were to only use Fire, Thunder, Nair, Bair, and Fair, Bthrow would probably work better.

But I'll say Dthrow
