This tier list is MY PERSONAL OPINION of where fighters are at 13.0.0. There IS one final patch 13.0.1 which says "fighter adjustments" but personally I think it'll just be bug fixes. If characters are greatly changed I'll come out with another.
Without further ado:
I tried to order them as best as possible.
Here's some explanation of a few choices.

Here's some explanation of a few choices.
1) Pyra/Mythra
The rest are pretty standard.
- No, I do NOT believe they're the best character.
- No, I do NOT believe they're in the top 5.
- They have a great great neutral game (even pyra) but a BAD BAD recovery. This is showcased in Sparg0 and MkLeo's recent Grand Finals set.
- I believe Diddy is HIGHLY underrated.
- Tweek just isn't as good as MkLeo (and Sparg0 imo) so he loses to those two but HOLY MOLY can he go bananas (pun intended of course) with this character.
- Banana changes the entire match.
- Diddy command grab is probably the best in the game and creates a dynamic where the other person doesn't want to shield because of it but DOES want to shield to keep from getting hit with banana. Kind of a unique character dichotomy that presents a lot of opportunities for Diddy.
- Has quite a few great results.
- Tea (nuff said)
- Link is such a crazy character with combos that can just simply rob an opponent of their stock before they even know what hit them.
- Personally I think Botw Link is the best Link in the game due to bomb recovery, super high knockback hits, and crazy combos.
- One of the very best up b out of shield in the entire game. I mean seriously... this move has a huge hitbox, comes out frame 7, hits both sides, and kills. Great great move.
- Boomerang
- A bit overrated imo. Snake has a lot of sauce but seems to get overwhelmed by characters that can get in his face. MkLeo destroyed Marss Snake ONLINE with Marth of all characters. Now... I'm not basing this off of that one set I'm just saying I don't think Snake is as good as some say he is.
- Not sure on this one to be honest.
- Sora could go up or down based on actual results but they just don't exist yet.
- Based off of his kit and recent tournament play I think he's low high tier.
- I'm struggling to put Luigi in his right place. On one hand you have Elegant going crazy with the character but then on the other hand he has a lot of RNG elements and he struggles HARD in certain matchups.
- 0 to death combo
- This is my main and you can call me biased if you want to but she is NOT mid/low tier.
- Zelda has some of the best moves in the game (highest knockback ftilt in the game - well before Kazuya which I'm not sure about, one of if not the highest knockback up air in the game, phantom, her up b that travels far and hits above the ledge, down air that just got buffed, the 7 or 8 best back kill throw in the game... plus up throw that kills as well).
- Struggles with mobility and grab speed. Those are her main issues.
- I personally think this character is really good and very scary in the right hands.
- I'm also talking about OFFLINE not online.
- Really taken a fall imo. Dabuz is the only top player on this character but he's (kinda?) dropped him for Min Min.
- This one is perhaps the most controversial but I truly think because of the inconsistencies of Marth's tippers he belongs down here in low tier.
- Good opponents constantly live to 200%.
- Tippers don't give proper reward for how difficult they are to hit.
- Roy/Lucina are simply better in every single way you can think of.
- MkLeo even says Marth sucks... that rates pretty high in my book as he LOVES Marth and would probably play him in tournament if he actually were a legit character.
- His "kill confirms" (quotes are intended) are pixel perfect, percent perfect, and nearly impossible to land (down air > fsmash, first hit of nair into fsmash).
- Side B is one of the most difficult moves to land in the entire game outside of moves that are SUPPOSE to be bad (like warlock punch).
The rest are pretty standard.
