Ike vs Little Mac

When playing Ike against Little Mac, focus on utilizing your aerials and Side B to pressure him while staying out of his range. Little Mac's ground game is incredibly strong, so avoid committing to slow moves like Fsmash or Upsmash, as he can quickly punish you with his speed. Instead, use your Up Air and Nair to zone him out, and be ready to counter his approaches with your Counter ability when he tries to close the distance. Position yourself near platforms to take advantage of your aerial mobility while limiting Little Mac's effectiveness on the ground.
