    High-Reward Characters

    That's possible, yes. Did I ever say "here, follow this as mantra?" No. I don't think PT could ever be as good as MEtaknight. But look how often G&W fails to place first compared to how many placings he has? Or how often Pit does just the opposite? that's what is interesting.

    High-Reward Characters

    theory =/= practice I guess what I meant to say is that it isn't neccesary to include every player's character because this list isn't concerned with every player. Using the top 8 placements means that, if player A were to master a character to the point where he or she was able to make it...

    High-Reward Characters

    I disagree. His list reflects how often a MK places and wins and gives out points for how often. This list shows how often a character would win if it made the top 8. There is a difference. His is affected by how many MK's play. Mine, in theory, is not. (Though obviously theory =/=...

    Should the top 8 not be the best? I'd say that's kind of the point. So this is how characters do when they are represented at their best.

    Yes, it would be. I would assume that the ranking list includes tournaments where that is the case, and that is where I got my data. ...Yes.

    o.o; Either I'm really missing something, or just not saying something correctly. The percents indicate how often someone who PLACES with a character WINS a tourney. So it should tell us how often, when a "good player" uses a character, that character should win.

    You'll have to excuse my brashness, but I don't see what's sorry about it.

    The pro's definitely can skew it. So can tourney size. I just thought it was interesting to look at. And it makes Metaknight seem less intimidating. o.o

    That's kind of the point. :/

    Uh. Yeah. I didn't explain that fully?

    Yessir. Even though MK has the most wins, when compared to his PLACEMENTS, he only wins 22% of the time. I hope that makes sense. On the other hand, of the top 8 placements PT has had, he has won 33% of them.

    High-Reward Characters

    For those who aren't going to read the following paragraph, this basically lists characters who have a high reward for learning them inside out and backwards. Thanks, XienZo >>; Please do not take this as an attack on established tiers or match-ups or anything like that. It's simply an...

    I feel strangely like this has been done. Numerously.

    The Official "Should/Will Metaknight be banned?" Thread (LISTEN TO THE SBR PODCAST!)

    I don't think that's specifically the case just yet.
