I know everyone in this time, believes that the tier list, is a thing of the past, and that if you just have patients and perserverance, that any character can be the best, atleast your books, so with that being said, I am creating this thread to ask people to post what they believe to be their own tier list. If you dont want to post all the characters, just do top 3 bottom 3, thats what im interested in

Heres mine.

Mario
Luigi
Fox
Falco
Jigglypuff
Falcon
Marth
IC's
Peach
Sheik(Zelda)
Ganondorf
Link
Doc Mario
Mewtwo
Bowser
Samus
Pichu
Yoshi
Pikachu
Roy
Game&Watch
Kirby
DK
Ness
Young Link

Again this is personal, based on your own feelings

I'll post one that is in fact somewhat legit watch out everyone


Good or broken tier
Fox
Falco
Jigglypuff
Sheik(barely here due to not really beating anyone in this tier)

Decent tier
Marth
Peach
Falcon
IC's
Samus
Ganondorf
Doc Mario

sucks tier
Luigi
Mario
Pikachu
Link
DK
Young Link
Mewtwo
Yoshi
Zelda
Game&Watch
Pichu

oppenects choice if you win or lose like most of the time if they know match-up and are decent or higher in most cases

Roy
Bowser
Ness
Kirby
Master hand

this is how this list is broken down can they win a tournment? they go into that tier in all truth if someone knows how to fight the last tier they will basically lose unless they go to a good stage or something. I have what I call the roy claw it's funny and causes me to sandbag against roy even if i'm losing. I think bowser/roy better than pichu without a doubt i'd argue against you if you said pichu was better.

it's simply pichu's overall tools are safe enough to spam right if I camp bowser on KJ64 or know to chain throw and junk yeah WTF?I don't think bowser could get past some of that doesn't have the movement to back his moveset up. but his up-B, tanking, kill power and junk are better just simply these charcters are hard countered pretty extreme by not so extreme tactics. So I in truth have 2 two lists in my head. and in that one pichu is like 4th worse if we count MH

Sheik isnt bad against any of those characters. She beats falco outright and goes even with jiggs and fox. Well we all know that that match up is slight fox.

Sheik loses to fox 60/40
Sheik loses to Puff 60/40
Sheik goes 50/50 with Falco.

You're garbage.

wait sheik loses to puff now? awww the times they are a changin

60/40 is pretty hard too :\
If you talk to top players from the perspectives of both characters (Hungrybox and Amsah), they will tell you it's a completely horrible matchup for Sheik, worse than Fox. Not saying I necessarily agree with them, just putting that out there.

I really don't know.. I wanna believe that Young Link would be over DK too..

Idk my brain can't function right now to actually come up with something good to back this up with. DK has more rep then Young Link does.

I think that DK is actually better than Zelda and Y. Link. DK can combo pretty well with his good throws, has one of the best ranges in the game, very strong and heavy, and faster attacks then Zelda.

Agreed, DK is better then Zelda, and Young Link, infact, DK is pretty solid, personally i find him difficult to use, but it can be done, i mean, I believe it was the first ever Japanese finals(im probably wrong on that one) but i remember that the finals were a DK vs. Fox, I believe Captain Jack was the DK, but he won, so obviously DK's not THAT bad

He is not!

DK is not better than my favorite character Zelda. She's soooooo better than him. DK is annoying! I hate that down + B attack. The only thing that's useful for is killing those alloys and wire frames in multiman melee/brawl. DK needs a life and basically he should be kicked off the smashbros series! I hate DK. Grrrrrr!

DK is very unfitting in the game like think of a charcter which more range than marth and everyone's like what? then you say someone with a great grab game. we're like oh marth dittos duh.

there are some wierd charcters in this game when I think about it.

the high pressure ones are mad fun

because peach is a really bad character that is very limited. the matchup against cf and jiggs is unwinnable, ntsc fox is ridiciously hard, ntsc sheik has an advantage, marth has an advantage, falco is even. even doc and ice climbers do better than peach against these characters.
and armada still manages to be the best player in the world with peach, the ****ty princess. just amazing.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, this guy is hilarious!!!

Well you heard the man, you've got to have patients to be the best! I guess that in order to truly reach the highest levels of the metagame we need medical professionals to pick up Melee!!!

what is this nonsense? nobody believes this lol.
If nobody believed they could win with there character then we'd have a bunch of Fox's running around or something, obviously people have faith in random characters. Im not sure if you noticed but im like 90% sure that a tournament has been won with atleast every character

thats called skill gap
I dont think a tournament that had several high level players present was ever won by a low/bottom tier

I dunno, players have won with atleast mid level characters, Ganons, IC's, Samus etc. and when you start to get lower im sure if atleast at some point, they have won with good players present, im not saying a zelda or Young Link is going to dominate, but they could still have good showings.

No, I didn't say only Fox is viable.

I'm saying that there are a lot of characters who clearly aren't, i.e. the bottom 10 characters or so.

And this is coming from someone who mains Luigi. (I think Luigi is sort of viable.)

Haha Luigi's my #2. And No, fox obviously isnt the only character viable. But the bottom 10 characters? I dont think so, first ever Japanese Championship was won by a DK. so I dunno, there maybe a few exceptions, like Pichu, Young Link, Zelda, G&W(?) but otherwise, for the most part, the rest are capable

Clearly the Japanese metagame circa 2002-2003 is similar to the current metagame.
