There won't be a rise of Wario in the sense that some people are thinking (hoping), he's a mid tier and won't rise past that. He does well against only a few good characters (Rosalina, Megaman, Villager, Lucario, and Olimar being the only relevant ones) and loses to too many good characters (Bayo, Sonic, and Cloud being horrendous MUs alongside chars like Diddy, Fox, Marth, etc still being bad too. Waft is pretty dumb and he has some good tools, but the only top level Sonic Wario has beaten recently is Wrath (Reflex > Wrath at TBH6) which gives me some hope for the MU, Ixis meanwhile 3-0'd Glutonny (or maybe it was a 3-1, but I recall it being 3-0) at Syndicate. Whilst Glutonny whiffed waft a bunch, and made some crucial errors, vs Komo, everyone saw how difficult it was for Wario to deal with a top level Cloud who was committed to that sort of playstyle. Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but I don't think any other good player is going to pick up Wario.
