    Oh thank god the world's back to normal! To be blunt it's easily one of the best lists I've seen so far. And it's mostly because many of the characters, still fall in the lines of what they are actually producing minus a few that I'll get into later. I mean it has :ultdoc: out of Bottom and...

    Now, double post aside, let me get back to Roy. What :ultroy: (and what I'd call the same for :ultpalutena::ultrob: and the other Top 5 or 10 so characters of Orion) is... is "malleable." Roy is a character who has the very lucky luxury, to effectively exemplify the three most important...

    25th in Kaigairbi#6. 33rd in Glitch:Infinite 9th in Glory 2.0 13th in VCA 2022 7th in St. Valentin Edition, Wanted S4 C3. Typical Top 40s of Orion on a consistent basis. Oh don't mind me people, I'm just listing off some of the, I don't know, common reasons why :ultridley:has consistently...

    When someone asks "Is said character the best" you kind of have to ask yourself, what you're defining as "the best." A character's results and meta isn't defined by who has won tournaments and who hasn't, it's an entire system built around different points that come together. Right now, however...

    I was looking at Riddle's list there thinking, "Damn! Have you all lost your minds!?" Until I realized what the list was.

    Good lord, another Kazuya in Top Tier. Listen folks, the so called "Potential" or "Theories" of your character, doesn't mean a jackity load of custard pie, if your players cannot implement those "theories" to better themselves and the character. Stop this whole "well if they just push...

    It's a pretty basic list but looking at it, I've noticed something. Guys...I think I might be from a different dimension. You see in my dimension, :ultridley: regularly got Top 33rds and 25ths from his primary players in majors and around 2021-2022, he even seemed to show a vastly increase in...

    Nobody said anything about Wii Fit's placement. Unlike Kazuya, Wii Fit wasn't constantly given some absurd level of praise thanks to "tools" or "Theories." If anything she was kind of unknown, uncertain and not much thought was ever given to the character. Wii Fit getting 17th isn't a notion...

    Some key thoughts. Having a Corrin at 17th (SHADIC) is a nice impression of a character who for a lot of us, has remained kind of uncertain in their applicability. Another character of similar notion is the 17th placing of Wii Fit Trainer who has this notion of being sporadic in her results...

    Mezcaul's really been pushing the results for Ridley, with a few others bringing up a good rear such momon, easily getting quite a few Top 16's and 24s in several majors and regional. I'm actually not sure what Nair^ is doing, but Europe and Japan definitely decided they wanted to push Ridley...

    So a few quick things about the most recent update on Orion. - Ganondorf just rose up 7-9 spots. It certainly isn't a placement worthy of much praise, but it is a relative large increase and I'm honestly not sure where it came from. -We're really starting to see the effect of character's...

    FIrstly, Kazuya really only gets Top 8's in regionals and his best only stands around the Top 16's in majors. To act like Kazuya is this Top 8 monster in majors is just plain false. Not to mention the sporadic and inconsistent nature of his playerbase as a whole, with numbers ranging from Top 16...

    I see very little reason to put emphasis on the results of what happened nearly 2 years ago. But the real issue is that, I'm not sure why you're concept of "Tops" is limited to such a minimum result of just "Top 3" when I feel the majority would at least incorporate the Top 8 and many would...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Probably because while one can infer Roy's current status as a "Top Tier" thanks to the great results he gets, it's also a note of the sheer popularity he has as a character. But to put in a specific numerical placement kind of requires you to get mathematical on the whole thing. What are the...

    Actually yes, Ness himself has always gained decent results, ranging easily in the Top 15's minimum. Ness has always kind of been scraping the bottom of the Top Tier and now, thanks to people likes Scend and Gakt, he's clearly getting the results pushed forward even more. Fatality himself has...
