I think the current Melee tier list is pretty accurate, however I believe there should be a couple tweaks. Here are my thoughts on the current tier list and what changes there should be.
I think Fox, Falco and Marth should stay where they are because they are and have always been extremely dominant characters. I believe that Jigglypuff should be in 4th instead of Sheik because Jigglypuff has a dominant air game and a 1 hit KO 95% of the time. Sheik may have the ability to chain grab floaty characters. She cannot chaingrab Fox or Falco which is another reason Sheik should be moved to 5th. Ice Climbers and Capatin Falcon are fine. Samus should be 9th instead of Pikachu because she has a better zoning game and stronger and more effective tilts. She also has more dominant aerial damage output compared to Pikachu. Luigi should be ranked in 12th instead of 13th because of his superior wavedash, powerful upsmash and his downsmash which has a ton of priority compared to Yoshi. Yoshi can also not shield drop as effectively and has a linear recovery compared to Luigi. Mewtwo should switch with Roy because Mewtwo has a great recovery, ok weight, great aerial combos with f-air and u-air. Roy has a terrible recovery, one of the worst if not the worst. Roy sucks against crouch cancelling and his sour spots are absolutely awful! Also he cannot kill unless he gets a Smash attack or edge guard which is unlikely. My last change is that Bowser should be the worst character in the game. He has terrible aerial speed, some of the laggiest moves in the entire game, no combo potential, the slowest jump in the game, useless Smash attacks. Only 2 edge guarding options. Is so large he is basically combo meat and he has a terrible recovery. Bowser is so bad he should have his bottom tier just for him. Here is my final tier list
1. Fox
2. Falco
3. Marth
4. Jigglypuff
5. Sheik
6. Peach
7. Ice Climbers
8. Captain Falcon
9. Samus
10. Pikachu
11. Dr. Mario
12. Luigi
13. Yoshi
14. Ganondorf
15. Mario
16. Young Link
17. D.K
18. Link
19. Mr. Game and Watch
20. Mewtwo
21. Roy
22. Zelda
23. Ness
24. Pichu
25. Kirby
26. Bowser
Are my changes correct or am I completely wrong? Let me know what you think as I would appreciate it a lot. Thanks!
