I love the challenge of fighting sword characters with shorter ones and winning, since I main Mario in every smash game. Usually the sword characters have less KO potential than fist-fist fighters, but I think Ike is hated because he ignores this rule while having a VERY large reaching sword. Not to mention his forward air is quite jarringly fast, and most of his moves shroud his entire hit-box in a death-circle. 
I hope they fix this.
