    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Well I meant within the same game, but point taken. Diddy had just about all his moves severely reduced in kill power and damage, with frame data and hitbox nerfs to boot. Grab was given more end lag. Lost his grab kill confirms. Fair used too kill early. Up air used to link into itself and...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Yeah, Diddy most likely beats Bayonetta, has a chance at going even or better with Cloud and is completely unchained in general now with the top tier nerfs. Not to say he has no bad matchups or that there's no counterplay to his kit but he's a major contender for best character in the game right...

    Such a high damage output but she really seems like she has trouble landing the kill on good players. People were consistently living to like 150% and then murdering with a guaranteed rage kill combo vs the Bayonetta player at this Arena Mexico tourney. Everyone still just goes on and on about...

    The shadow sneak cancel looks like it has a lot of utility against a good portion of the top tiers, Diddy included. Greninja has a real chance to shine now with there being fewer shieks.

    How much were Link and Tink held back by Shiek before the patch? I've always thought they were both underrated and there were a few in top 16 for this tourney. Who did they end up losing to?

    Disclaimer: I'm rolling back to the Bayonetta secondary after the MK changes But I flipped on the FOW tourney and I'm not sure why we're all discussing nerfs because we're so convinced Bayonetta ruins the game this patch when we she's totally absent. Meanwhile DK is fighting Lucas in losers...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Smh at some of these comments. What major tournaments have ended with Bayonetta mirrors in grand finals since she came out? Any at all? I'm guessing no. Good players who are willing to play patient defense and punish her landings don't have any more trouble with her than the rest of the top...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Diddy is top 10 for me right now but I think he needs more consistency to be considered top 5 with some of this new competition. Loses to Sheik, Rosalina, Fox, and Pikachu. Mario and Luigi seem more even because of Diddy's better range and kill setups. Villager requires a lot of counter play...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Diddy is way too versatile to be classified as a simple rushdown character. His greatest strength is the fact that his kit is extremely well rounded to the point that he can deal with a wide variety of situations quite well. Sure, he wants to lay down pressure in certain situations. But he also...

    Since the patch, Marth's results are quickly getting respectable and they're only going to get better as time goes on. He's Greninja all over again. People write him off because he started off poorly but he appears to have unexplored viability due to his high learning curve and low margin for...

    What dominance are you referring to?

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    I think most people still tend to not realize that Diddy has to set up the peel and it can be taken away quite easily. And he's hardly immune to juggling. We might have to agree to disagree on this. Keep in mind I'm not saying Marth wins. But you make it seem like it's gg at css. That's not...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    To clarify I don't think it's worse than 60-40 Diddy Kong for the reasons I stated. Diddy has a better neutral because of his safety. But Marth has tools to beat his options outright and juggle and edgeguard him pretty hard. He sort of clearly wins in the footsies game too because of his range...
