Bowser vs Joker

In the matchup against Joker, focus on controlling the ground to counter his aerial dominance. Utilize Bowser's neutral B to create pressure, forcing Joker to play defensively and allowing you to rack up damage since he is relatively light and can be KO'd around 80%. Be wary of Joker's edge-guarding capabilities, especially when he has Arsen; mix up your recovery to avoid his fair and potential footstool kills. When in the air, aim to capitalize on Joker's lower damage output by using Bowser's fair and side-B to dominate the aerial phase.

Tips for Bowser vs Joker

  • Mix Up your recovery. Joker can kill you in many way. either he have Arsen or not, he can kill you with the Fair; Footstool you...Pressure you in so many way.
  • Don’t get combed and mix up your air dodges in combos
  • Joker will lead on aerial phase, so you have to play on ground. Try to pressure him to abuse the neutral B to make him earn free purcent. He's light, so you may kill him around 80%
  • Keep in mind that Joker does not generate much percentage, face him in the air. I recommend the FAir and SIDE-B
