Zac. :( We all shouldn't be so pessimist. I mean, the only reason he dropped was because of us. We aren't repping him nearly as much as we should. Because I KNOW that he is atleast better than lucario. Atleast.

We all were prepared for his placement looking poor. Behind Lucario is obviously a huge joke, but I expected them to do something stupid like that. Ah well. Also Pit loooool.

I think G&W is better than Pikachu (overrated) and Lucario easily. Olimar and Dedede not so much. Well, at least G&W isn't mid tier. I was bracing myself for that to happen, and I'm glad they weren't that bat**** insane.

I agree with everything this person said!
I kind of get the Pikachu placing but again not so much. x-x

And Penta! Show me the ways of School Days?

after lucario, and before pit is a huge joke. i honestly can't believe it.
I would of been fine with
d3, Olimar, Pikachu, Gw, Lucario, Pit
or d3, Olimar, Gw, Pika, Lucario, Pit

but where he's at is just blah. lulzy.
i've been reading and it's basically based alot on tournament representation, and I understand lucario gets more rep, but still. >.>;

I think the current tier list is overall an improvement over the previous one in terms of getting people into appropriate tiers, even though there are still obvious errors.

I feel the same way, truth be told. It's just a bummer to see G&W misplaced under someone like Lucario, and Pit right behind him. He's in the right tier, though, that's at least commendable.

This is just motivation for us to try harder ^_^

Lol @ Hylian tier. I do think Zelda sucks, it's just funny to see them all in bottom 3 together.

there's only one solution to reviving G&W in the tier list!

we must clone and make 9more UTDZACKs!

i'll get the cloning machine D:<
corny lol :(
the point being is that we have very little G&W rep in the U.S...that places top 9 and higher



tho the more i look into results and stuff,lucario's placement seems pretty fair now ;/
especially from pound 4

Either of those are actually pretty close. If there's a big Northeastern tournament, maybe I will see you, Kewl!

I haven't really looked at Lucario's placement and stuff, but it's a not really a big deal because Pikachu hasn't gotten good placements (according to Ankoku's) and he is still really high.

Just a lot of G&W hate in the BBR :(

To be honest, the reason I stopped playing G&W was because he gets curbstomped by Meta Knight. That's why you barely see any G&W rep in the U.S. No one wants to play a character that loses outright to the best character in the game, so one's better off just playing Meta Knight.

If you really think about it, I've been noticing a gravitation towards the tier list away from the traditional "who are actually the best characters in the game" and more to "how well do you do against Meta Knight". Marth is probably the exception to that, but that's probably because I think Marth should be lower than he is right now.

Im sure you'll make it somewhere on the PR but dont underestimate MI players lol. M2K comes here for tourneys a lot and Ally did come here but not recently. I know you were joking though lol.

I don't know, but I think I play GaW differently then most. I gotta come back to big tournies though =( Also I think people aren't play the MK vs GaW MU right. Sure he's got upB and ftilt, but there are ways to get around it.

I love how in that vid the g&w is hitting with the actual turtle and not with just the mouth. Seriously. And the ic part was just loltastic. He was RIGHT next to them! But I guess that video was just trying to show that it can be punished.
Btw guys, we SERIOUSLY need to start repping g&w! It's the only way he'll rise! Zac is awesome but he can't do it all alone. I'm just sad I can't do more to help. :( Seeing as I live in Portugal and what not. Oh well, I'll try to rep him over here atleast.
