FFA Tier list?

So after looking at the doubles tier list thread located here, my question is what would an FFA tier list look like? Are there certain characters that would move up or down for something like that. I know FFA isn't a serious competitive format, but I figured it might be fun to think about.

I also have always wondered this. I remember very recently I entered a really casual Smash tourney in my school where is was 4 person FFA (Brawl), so I dropped my main Diddy and practiced R.O.B. because I thought he worked well in FFA's.
I know this is a Melee discussion but bear with me for a second: I used R.O.B. because he has a great recovery, had projectiles that helped camp and keep people away, great gimping potential, and attacks that hit hard if not reacted to in time. So we break it down to what are key elements of FFA? I think it's more of a try to stay away from action and don't get hit. Anyone else get what I mean?

I think Peach, Puff, and Marth would all jump up a bit when talking about FFA. Peach for her projectile camping, attacks that separate characters apart (down smash etc), ability to take trades quite well, recovery, and evasiveness potential. Same goes for Puff re evasion. For Marth, I'd say large sweeping and disjointed hitboxes would definitely be a bonus for covering your surroundings well and preventing as many of the aforementioned trades from occurring in the first place/hitting you.
