    4BR Official Tier List V3 - Discussion Thread

    Aww **** I missed my chance to vote. Sorry guys :(

    Meta 4BR Tier List v2.0 - Discussion Thread

    I'd like to mention that there have been a lot of top players posting their tier lists on twitter... Some of them iirc are in this backroom. We should look into contacting them and asking if it would be acceptable to add their lists to our votes. As of right now I don't think we have enough...

    Hyuga isn't the only TL rep. Zan just top8 at KTAR saga, beating void on the way, and frequently does well there. There are also two TLs doing work in Japan too, having tournament wins when top players were in bracket. I am editing my list tonight. I now believe Sheik is the best in the game...

    Meta 4BR Tier List v2.0 - Discussion Thread

    @Raziek I'll ignore your top5 ryu placement for now and HAVE to question your decision to rate robin above toon link and megaman. I can't conceive of a way where a rational look at character potential and results leads to that conclusion.

    I mean sure... You can justify it all you want but it still looks absurd to rate ryu so high when both his results and potential matchup spread is ass.

    Meta 4BR Tier List v2.0 - Discussion Thread

    From what I think and what I've heard, he has a very tough time against sonic, sheik, pikachu, Toonlink, megaman and villager (all more than slightly disadvantageous). Beyond that he slightly loses to bayo, cloud and DK. Some say he loses to rosa and ZSS as well. I guess depending on what you...

    Meta 4BR Tier List v2.0 - Discussion Thread

    How can you justify ryu over diddy? Over mario? Over sheik? These are characters with a ton of representation in many regions, winning there, and also winning on the international level. We heavily overrated ryu in the first tier list and I fear we're going to do it again. I don't even think the...

    Well Trela has won some fairly stacked tournaments, so there is definitely reason to think he is high tier/close to top tier, but when it comes to large national/international tournaments, the results are NEVER there.

    Meta 4BR Tier List v2.0 - Discussion Thread

    I am into theorycraft as much as the next guy, and I'll throw some tier placements here and there that go against common results, but guys... Look deep into your hearts and ask yourself "is Ryu really top5 in the game?" TBH the answer should be no. He actually has some pretty brutal matchups...

    Meta Tier List 1.0 Discussion & Moving Forward

    I would think that after EVO would be a good time to start discussing a new tier list. In response to the above ^ tier list, I think doc is criminally low. The character is actually incredibly solid, just why play doc when you could play mario? That's why you never really see him, but the...

    4BR Official Tier List Discussion

    I agree with a lot of you said... Sonic's m/u spread does indeed include a lot of evenish matchups (imo most are all slight advantages for sonic... 55/45 kind of thing, . I also agree that ZSS and fox beat sonic. However I've been recently thinking sonic might have an advantage over rosa. Sonic...

    4BR Official Tier List Discussion

    I've said what I wanted to say about mac, but as for sonic: I honestly think this character has the 2nd best matchup spread in the game outside of sheik, and is also sheik's toughest matchup. Results wise, perhaps he doesn't deserve 2nd best, but in all honesty, outside of Nairo for ZSS and...

    4BR Official Tier List Discussion

    Yes Little Mac is VERY particular about stages, but under the current ruleset it's not too bad. I assume the common ruleset is like this: Starters: FD BF SV TC DL CPs: Lylat Duckhunt (sometimes delfino, halberd, siege??) With the common 7 stages, game 1 will start BF or town and city...
