If patch 1.1.6 (literally) flipped the smash 4 meta upside down, who would you use competitively?

[Green Zelda]

Let's say the balancing team gets fed up with all the complaints to buff and nerf certain characters, so
one night, they randomly drop patch 1.1.6 on us, thinking "Hey guys, remember when we added pre- patch
diddy on the game's release? Well we've decided to screw you over just one last time." The patch completely
changes the current smash 4 metagame, and this here is the new official tier list:

Spoiler

(Assuming every character below "'Mid' Mid Tier" is unviable), which character(s) would you play competitively, and why?

 

[IsmaR]

The same exact characters I already play.

 

[E-Mann]

The Doc himself. Also Purin. More or less the same characters I main.

 

[Tino]

I will still play as Rosalina and Cloud. No balance patch will change who I will or will not main. It never has and it certainly never will.

 

[L1N3R1D3R]

I'll still use all the same characters (see my signature), but I would focus more on Dr. Mario and Mii Gunner.

 

[Erureido]

I'd still play Greninja and Corrin. Heck, going off of that tier list, it seems like Greninja didn't change that much.

 

[E-Mann]

I will still play as Rosalina and Cloud. No balance patch will change who I will or will not main.

Respect.

I'd still play Greninja and Corrin. Heck, going off of that tier list, it seems like Greninja didn't change that much.

Duh, of course he is. He's literally in the middle of the tier list, after all.

 

[Xermo]

The characters presented as high tiers will still be as unappealing to play as when they were low tier.

 

[Frizz]

I'd still use Robin. That's the one of the benefits of him being mid tier.

 

[zeldasmash]

Samus, Ganondorf, Link & Little Mac would be my picks, but i already main them . Cloud, Falcon & Ryu would be my low tier mains.

 

[MarioMeteor]

Wouldn't really affect me cause all of my characters are mid tier or lower with the exception of Mario and Rosalina. I'd probably drop Rosalina if she was the third/second worst in the game, but other than that, I'd be fine. Of course, Mario being low tier would sting, but hey, I survived Brawl.

 

[FallenHero]

I would probably still use Marth since he would be pretty good. I would probably end up only using Ryu when I want to mess around and use Ganon, Doc, and Falco competitively instead.

 

[Zerp]

I'd still be playing , although, this would change who'd I'll probably pick up as a secondary, I'm planning on picking up a high tier that covers all of my really bad match-ups but I guess I wouldn't really need anything like that in this meta, I could probably get away with solo-maining Jigglypuff and playing competitively. That'd be great.

 

[Deleted member]

I'd solo main . No secondary whatsoever.

 

[Deleted member]

I would still use Cloud and Corrin. I would use Kirby a bit more, but I'll still stick with my two mains.

 

[Tizio Random]

Rosalina and Robin still. But I would definitely pick up Shulk and Zelda.

 

[Deleted member 269706]

Ganondorf for life. I've already soloed him in bracket and done well with him, so if he was legit viable I would use him so much more.

 

[Arrei]

Definitely full time Slammindorf. In this hypothetical scenario I'd imagine he was made viable by keeping his actual moves as they are, but significantly adjusting their traits such as way less end/landing lag as well as giving his movement a big buff, making him able to menace an opponent from all angles, keeping them afraid to dodge or shield against the raw power he has behind his moves.

And also his grab wouldn't be putrid arse anymore.

 

[Lightsoul]

I wouldn't change a thing. I would still use Pikachu, Yoshi and Cloud and just figure out how to win with them.

 

[Wintermelon43]

I'd still main and secondary , but i'd secondary and instead of and (Whom I'd drop completatly)

 

[E-Mann]

The characters presented as high tiers will still be as unappealing to play as when they were low tier.

Ouch, man. No love for the Doc, I suppose.

 

[Xermo]

Ouch, man. No love for the Doc, I suppose.

Everyone below dedede is my cutoff point for "high" tier in this list. You could never go wrong playing Doc.

 

[Axel311]

 

[DarkAuraful]

No character in my signature would be changed whatsoever. Though in this case I'd wonder what the hell happened to Ryu.

EDIT: Also, I notice that Mewtwo's safe either way. Haha.

 

[SkippyJ]

I would main jiggs. She currently is my favorite MAYBE second favorite character, with villager being my tournament main, so if the game flipped around like that the roles would switch. Villager started off as someone to play only because jiggs sucks, but I've really grown to love his style and it'd be nice to have a secondary that ISNT the worst character in the game, lol.

Other than that I'd be SUPER interested in how palutana feels after the patch, and gunner too. To raise that high in the tiers they would have to get some SERIOUS frame data and maybe air speed/fall speed buffs, and a lightning fast palutana and gunner to me sounds frickin awesome! ^_^

 

[Pixel_]

I've wanted to play Jigglypuff for a while, but she's always been too weak for me. Other than that I might still stick to my mains because they're awesome.

 

[ExiaPilotDedede]

I would continue to play King Dedede.

 

[WinterShorts]

Oh I would back air the f**k out of everything with Jigglypuff. Hungrybox style, if you will.

 

[Pyriph]

I already find Ganon really fun to play, so I'd main him in a heartbeat.

 

[Jeronado]

God tier Samus? Sign me up!

 

[DPKdebator]

I'd definitely play Doc, since he's very similar to Mario in terms of his moveset, and flipped Mario is trash.

 

[Baby_Sneak]

Duck hunt. Easily

 

[AnytimeMinutes]

All my current favorites are near the bottom. Dedede is probably most favoritist. xD

 

[The Butt Rumbler]

I already main Samus so my choice is easy there aha. I also have a ton of fun with Ganon so he'd be a good option too

 

[Racer07]

I already main Samus so my choice is easy there aha. I also have a ton of fun with Ganon so he'd be a good option too

Looks like I'm like you as well. I already main Robin, so I'm fine, myself. Though, I'd have to swap Captain Falcon and Corrin with Falco and Ganondorf.

 

[Xandercosm]

I would immediately switch to solo Ganondorf. It would be like living the dream!

 

[zzmorg82]

I would still main Falco and secondary Lucina.

 

[MockRock]

I'd still use Ike, Dark Pit and Mewtwo just because I like using them. But I will say that powerful versions of Jigglypuff and Palutena sound super fun.

 

[mousethephoenix]

I'd be extremely lucky, my main (Lucas) would be high-mid tier. Most of my sparring partners would be pretty pissed tho haha

 

[Ravengeance]

I would play Puff or Samus for sure no question. I actually enjoy playing as them as is so if they were made good I'd prob dual main them. I'd prob play both of them and whichever one I personally felt was better (despite any tier list) I would main.
