I'm just saying this but does any1 think that Pika should be in the top part of middle tier since he can 0 death fox and gimp characters when there 0%? Also being fast, strong for his weight and has pretty good techniques.

He was originally the top of low after the abbolishment of "Garbage" tier but went up to mid as he's actually quite good and, IMO, the most evil character in Melee. I guess he could go up further though if there's enough well explained demand for it.

What is it exactly that makes Yoshi "the best character of all time"? I'm not arguing, I would just like to understand your reasoning as, though I loved Yoshi's Story when it came out and still do to this day, his appearances in other games have been subpar (though I've never played the Yoshi's Island games) and Kirby is obviously the most standout character in Melee, even if he doesn't win.

EDIT: Oops, forgot Mr.G&W, he's pretty standoutish too so Kirby may infact be second best in this regard but that is all beside the point.

Yoshi is, without a doubt, the best character of all time.

He like the most liked character the mario series, and not to mention he wrecks **** in every smash series including SSB64. SheerMadness and Isai 's Yoshi is scary as ****, Sheer took me and someone else online and was so close to destroying both of us on teams. V3ctorMan proved Yoshi Melee worthy for beating ppl who play with higher tier characters. The only thing that stopping Yoshi in Melee and is getting him killed the most is lack of a up + B recovery. I bet if Nintendo programmed him a Up and B that will give him higher altitude he'll be a tier placement right now.

I think Pika is pretty good to be called a tourney playable character. Maybe not as good as Doc or Ganon but still pretty good.

Young Link is better then Mewtwo and Zelda. ANd Link is better then DK. Other then that your list looks cool.

@ryuu seika Marth and Shiek should be with Fox/Falco/ and Jiggs. Yoshi and Mr.G&W should be low tier other then that and the way the tier are named I agree with you.

Puff is definately not first and Sheik should be in Top Tier.

How about we compromise on something to make the perfect list so we don't have any complaints about the list when it's made and we can make an Official Tier list.

there are 20 people in a desert hopelessly lost they find a car with gas who gets the car? you can't make everyone happy if somehow they all got on or in it would be wieghted down so much it couldn't go far enough to save any of them.

should i live because i'm more important?

some thing there aren't ways to help everyone without hurting everyone so much no one is happy or lives.

I guess I might as well put "my own" tier list, just a small edit from the one posted by hbox

Top
Fox
Falco
Jigglypuff
Sheik
Marth


Upper
Peach
Falcon
Ice Climbers

Middle
Samus/Ganon
Doctor Mario
Luigi
Mario
Pikachu

Low
DK
Link
Zelda
Mewtwo

Bottom
G&W
Yoshi
Roy
Young Link
Bowser/Ness
Pichu
Kirby

Of course I'm not saying this must be the new tier list, just my opinion, any criticism/input welcome. I'm not sure about luigi/mario/pikachu, but I think in hbox's tier list, luigi was placed too low, and I haven't seen any justification for that. I'm considering falco a tad above jiggs for now, because I think jiggs has been overhyped a bit (he is amazing, but still)

Thanks for the feedback.

I don't know how young link got all the way down there just above bowser :laugh:
I was also thinking pikachu might be a bit too low, but is he above mario and/or luigi? I'm not sure about the doc/luigi/mario/pika portion. About link being above mario-again I am not a professional, but I highly doubt it.

Here are the changes, with just some rushed matchup analysis.



Low
DK
Link
Young Link
Zelda
Mewtwo



Bottom
G&W
Yoshi
Roy
Bowser/Ness
Pichu
Kirby

you can't support yl above mewtwo or zelda.

not saying he is bad or anything.
If it cannot be backed up, then you are correct. Do you have any sort of statistics or some tournie results from the characters? I'm trying to be as accurate as possible, but I'm not well versed in the knowledge of lower tiers in competitive play.

I don't know too much about mewtwo or yl or zelda, just doing my best to organize what I see as a correct tier list :)

hey you can't make a tier list purly off of resultes, match-ups, players and etc. there are many more foxes/falcons than sheik players therefore falcon/fox has more chances to place high than sheik and falcon/fox have better eslules than sheik why is that because falcon is better or because there are few sheik players?

true icg.

but there probably aren't more than 5 m2 zelda or yl players lol. so its equal.

low tier placement imo should be more tourney than the other factors.

but with high tiers you have to take more into account.

.@the goat-just go through tourney results. but from tourney only zelda and mewtwo have done anything notable.
