How about we hope for the best and the game becomes balanced, making tiers obsolete.

Oh wait...

Carry on.

According to all the information I've read about Brawl, the tiers sound a lot like this to me. It gets very iffy around the mid to low tiers though.

Top tier:
Mario (Great combos, recovery, better range than in Melee, a projectile that is probably reasonably spammable, increased kill options than in Melee, what's not to love?)
Peach
Sonic

High tier:
Metaknight
Pit
Fox
Pikachu
Diddy

Mid tier:
Kirby
Bowser
Link
Yoshi

Low tier:
Ike
Samus (I don't know jack about Zero Suit Samus. Sorry.)
Donkey Kong (if he was low tier and overall nerfed, then he must be kinda bad, right?)

The way I think other confirmed characters will fit? Just pure speculation with some bias here so don't take it seriously. =P

Top tier
Mario
Peach
Sonic

High tier
Metaknight
Sheik
Pit
Fox
Ice Climbers
Snake
Pikachu
Diddy
Pokemon Trainer (Too lazy to separate Pokemon into the tiers. =P)

Mid tier:
Kirby
Lucas
Bowser
Link
Zero Suit Samus
Yoshi
Wario
Captain Olimar
Zelda
King Dedede

Low tier:
Ike
Samus
Donkey Kong

No bottom tier. By now the developers should know better. By the way, the tiers I imagine are rather subtle, compared to what the Melee tiers are like.

Heres what I hope the tier list for Brawl is:

High Tier:
Kirby
P&O
Pokemon Trainer

Low Tier:
Everyone else

I know it sucks, but in all seriousness, heres the most likely Brawl tier list:

High Tier:
Sonic
Meta Knight
Fox
P&O (anyone else think P&O looks really good if you know how to use him?[and knowing how many Pikmin fans there are, someone has to, right?])

Middle Tier:
PT
Link
Kirby(hopefully Kirby wont get low Tier this time)
Zelda
Ike
Zero Suit
Pikachu
Samus

Low Tier:
Mario
Peach
Yoshi
Bowser

Bottom Tier:
DK
Diddy Kong
Ice Climbers

I hope that really wasnt too stupid of one. I just kinda made one off the top of my head.:ohwell:
I dont think Diddy would be bottom tier lol. Judging from his preformance at E for all when someone actually knew what they were doing, no way.

Other than that it looks fine, but will Ike's speed lower him from mid to low? We have yet to find out.

Ehem, I believe the real question is will Ike's speed boost him from Bottom tier to Low tier?

Reports say Ike is tweaked. He's supposedly not excessively slow anymore. I don't think that means anything for his horrible recovery though, so he's still probably not that good, but hopefully he's at least reasonably playable since he should be able to hold his own ground getting low% kills.

I find it funny that the original poster's top three hopefuls are almost identical to mine. In fact, they probably ARE identical if Yoshi and Pikachu are in the top *5*

We don't do tierlist predictions before a game even comes out. Besides, it's not even up to the general public to make them, anyway.
