consider the following : most top tiers can easily win neutral and when they do can combo to about 35% from doing so, a lot of low tiers struggle in winning neutral but can convert a stray hit into about 35%, marth on the other hand is very average in neutral but only gets about 20% or struggles to follow up at all.
sure he can kill early meaning he needs less percent, and he does well enough off-stage but the math means he can't be anything but mid tier, one with a consistent matchup spread but a mid tier nonetheless.
i can assure you that marth will drop several tiers once the hype is dead and people see marth for what really is, a painfully average character.
