Currently, I'm trying to be as cheap as I can think to be in rival smash: using characters like Bowser and Zelda to keep the rival in the air as much as possible, while taking advantage of their decent offensive capabilities. The most I can seem to get is 20, but Challenge Board 3 has a requirement of 50 kills.
I understand that there is a decent amount of skill required to complete this, but I'm sure there are some characters who naturally do better than others. Is this true, and if so, which characters work well for this encounter?

I used Captain Falcon and here's why.
He's deceivingly heavier than he looks, and he's got an instant KO in this mode.
Just use -> B to KO the baddies and ignore your rival. He'll be unable to keep up with your score. You also want to stand on one of the two middle platforms to make sure that you'll get a KO from each -> B. Here's a video that basically did the exact same thing that I did if you're having more trouble.
