Sakurai is soo biased, he thinks hes so smart by not letting Kirby overpowered(so no one finds out :p) and lets his other 2 characters overpowered(DDD and MK) it makes sense sorta >_>

Why would I go bat**** on anyone for saying Snake is better then Marth?

He is.

Snake is a busted character and Marth is not.

confusing

*edit* neiter, he's somewhere inbetween. Imo his matchups do not allow him to be in the same division as snake/mk but he is deffinately no chump. He is a great character and second on the high tier to GW imo.

Anyway, I left this thread alone more or less since the Metagame has pretty much stopped evolving.

You guys are still debating this?

I mean the characters that matter i.e Top tier and high tier and arguably mid tier are pretty much done.

Low tier and bottom tier is just common sense after that.

I think mid and low are pretty debatable. You're right about high and top, though. All people do with those is debate the exact placement of the characters.

I'd like to suggest that you separate the middle tier into upper mid and lower mid. I know they aren't in any order, but that's too many characters to distinguise from for one tier.

Oh, and I disagree with Bowser being the only Bottom character. That's all.

Well...looking at it, I can tell you right off the bat that Bowser is not the worst fighter in the game. That's a tossup between Captain Falcon, Yoshi, and Samus. Bowser can, at least, do some decent damage.

True. Honestly in 735 pages this thread has come to the consensus that snake is the best character in the game and Mk is the second best. At that rate in like 10,000 pages we should have a solid list!

I disagree with you. People can overcome flaws. Peach is considered low-mid in most circles, but a good Peach player can overcome her downsides and place well.

I've seen good Yoshi players out there.

You know, I like tiers, but people who stick to them overly really do prove the phrase "tiers are for queers". Tiers are good as a general guide of which characters are going to make it easiest to win. The lower on the list you pick a character, the better you'll need to learn the character and the more time you'll need to do well.

It might not be possible to win a tournament with those characters without being one of the best players on the planet, but you can still get pretty good with him and be able to beat most people.
Epic win post. Agreed:) (unless if the word 'queer' in TR4Q means 'gay' or something like that. but if it means '(v.) to spoil; ruin then i agree')

but i am pretty much obsessed with tier lists. but i still agree if you guys understand.

THERE YOU ARE.


*Grabs by collar*


WHY? WHY DID YOU DO IT? YOU'VE RUINED ALL MY PLANS, ALL MY DESIGNS. I HAD ALL THE EVIDENCE IN THE WORLD TO PROVE FALCON WAS BAD, BUT YOU HAD TO GO AND GIVE PEOPLE HOPE. DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE???

My 2 cents:

I definitely agree with:
Snake
Meta Knight
DeDeDe.

I would also place some of these higher:
Wolf
Toon Link

Maybe:
Olimar
Pit
Ike

The lowest I would say definitely includes:
Link
Ganon
Samus
Jiggs
maybe Sonic

I am waiting for N.OW to get even better than he already is and prove that NESS is the man! What? Chaingrab? CRAP!

I'm probably a little behind, but why is Wario so high up? I'm not against it or anything, but why? And isn't Sonic bottom tier?

Wario is like Jigglypuff but much better. He's fat, easy to control, has super armor moves, and, every 2 minutes, he has an instant gimp. So, you kill them, kill them, instant kill them. Basically I think that's why he's higher than some characters.

Why don't we just confine discussion to one section of the Tier list for a page or two? See what happens. Since most people seem to agree on the top two tiers, how about we just try to discuss who should be in the bottom two tiers and in what order? Or we could just do the bottom tier.

I know it's probably pointless but I figured I might as well make the suggestion. It's probably been tried before (I haven't kept up with all 700 pages, obviously).


I'll say what I can about the Bottom tier:

I think the characters that belong here are probably Jigglypuff, Samus, Link, Captain Falcon, and maybe Yoshi. At least as of right now, based on what the tournaments have shown us and based on what we know about the characters (ATs and such). I think an argument could be made for Bowser and / or Ganondorf also being in the bottom tier, though that really depends on the makeup of the mid / lower mid and low tiers. I imagine a couple other characters could potentially be in the bottom tier, but I can't think of anyone that I feel is really bad enough for it.

What do you think?

also I kinda threw Peach in there because I did not know where to put her
Everyone making a tier list should implement this Perfect-Tierlist-Making technique, it's so accurate we wouldn't need the SBR have the final word.
