    Official 4BR Tier List V4 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    I'm guessing it's an edgeguarding situation for those two. Rosa kinda gets walled if you can put sex kicks between her and the ledge, and they can do that super well.

    Official 4BR Tier List V4 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    So here's my question. Why is Bayo's jank any worse than what we've all dealt with for years? We've seen ZSS make the same exact comebacks multiple times with her own ladder combos and acted like it was hype. And yet Bayo is the problem. More importantly, we play a game where the existence...

    Reds go through flamethrower, obviously. Other Pikmin can be tossed over it via short hop.Furthermore, the most common misconception about Olimar is that killing Pikmin easily helps you against him. Not killing them easily is problematic, but he doesn't really care if they die, and any time you...

    Fox is harder for him because of his superior shield pressure. And also because Waft is one of the best possible punishes on Bayo's landing lag. She doesn't actually do that well against Wario. Many players just have a tendency to assume top tiers beat low tiers by default because they're better...

    VS Mario: Caped F-Smash can kill you as low as forty depending on if you sweet spot yourself, so besmindful of that, but unafraid. Mario should always have to guess whether you're going to smash or grab at max range. Trap landings hard since he has no way to mix you up. Don't be afraid to throw...

    I'm sorry, but the character just can't be terrible. Footstool conversions give him, assuming he doesn't kill with it, upwards of fifty damage in a single combo, and most of his raw attacks do at least ten. Fifth best airspeed in the game with incredible weaving capabilities and the bike to...

    That's all fair, but Dath isn't really a comparable example when he had one or two good results and fell off, vs a consistent player for two year as. I feel like Gluttony doing well is because he properly understands the character when most people don't. I don't really trust Reflex's opinions...

    So my one issue regarding the tier list: What's the deal with Wario? He has a very high level solo main in the form of Gluttony, who's placed top 8 at almost everything he's attended for two years. Source: https://www.ssbwiki.com/Smasher:Glutonny That consistent level of results usually...

    It's tricky to play because well, Cloud, but Olimar has the tools to keep pace. Avoiding the air as much as possible is key. If you get juggled, suck it up and Up-B to ledge st the first opportunity, rather than eating damage on the way down. Olimar's biggest strength is just how well he can...

    Official 4BR Tier List V4 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    Olimar is a strong character but he suffers from the fact that all his Pikmin attacks have projectile priority, (re: none) including his aerials. Proper spacing mitigates this a lot but it is absolutely his biggest weakness, and the reason he has troubld escaping from juggle situations...

    Official 4BR Tier List V4 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    Mostly a good list this time. I'm annoyed at Wii Fit's placement but I've accepted that nobody cares about her at this stage. Marth and Lucina are basically next to each other now, so that's pretty good. Corrin should take a step back for Lucina though. Still don't think Ryu is as good as...

    The 2GGC Championship thread

    We always say that people never play campy enough. Looks like Elegant decided to test that theory, and damn did it work for him.

    Official 4BR Tier List V3 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    How much it matters is debatable, but Samus has a different tripping animation than most character. When banana hits her, Diddy has to time his followups differently or she just falls out of things as a result. This could throw off a lot of Diddy players, so I wouldn't be too surprised if it's...

    Official 4BR Tier List V3 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    Zelda's flaws tend to be dramatically over exaggerated. She's not great by any means but she honestly shouldn't be a contender for bottom five. Furthermore, of those matchups, Mario, Ness, Luigi, Falcon, Villager, and ROB probably are even. Megaman could be too but I'm not familiar with him...

    Official 4BR Tier List V3 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    Solo-viable is based on matchup spreads. To say that Cloud isn't solo viable, you have to either present a character who hard-counters him and could consistently end his bracket runs, or show that he has several losing matchups that will make it difficult to play him alone in bracket. Player...
