NOTE: I partially understand why tier lists exists. Some characters are better than others and that needs to be pointed out. I also want to say that the vast majority of people who are against a tier list for brawl don't even go to tournaments and that tiers overall do not apply to them.
I actually support a tier list. Something about rankings just makes me feel better inside. The one drawback to tier lists is newer tournament players who have not picked a main may go to the top tiers instead of their favorite character. This happened in melee with all the Foxes and I am afraid this will happen in Brawl.
This does not include those players who are sticking to their main now or those who choose their main because they like them or that the character fits their playing style (even if they are top tier). I talking about the players who pick a (potential) top tier to have the best chance of winning.
Honestly, I hope people newer to the tournament scene and people familiar in the tournament scene go to tournaments for the experience and the chance to play better players. If your primary goal is to win a tournament, then you would be more likely imo to use a character because they are top tier.
I just hope people stick with their favorite character and not switch to a top tier just to win.
