Guys, I'm gonna be honest here.

:4miibrawl: without Helicopter Kick is honestly not that great at all.

The tier list is going purely by their 1111 moves just like :4palutena:, and of course the development team chose the WORST moves for their defaults. Brawler is nearly :4littlemac: levels of bad with his recovery.
This.

Just like Palutena, all three Mii Fighters were balanced and designed around using their alternate specials. Of course they're all gonna rank extremely low in a meta that simply doesn't allow for customs.

If by BS and someone you mean the official backroom, then sure. :V
The official tier list

I wouldn't call it BS. It's mostly accurate with a few problems here-and-there, I think most people have a problem with the timing of the list.
Oh right. Thanks for clearing that up. I still couldn't recover from the craziness that happening this afternoon. But it's best to put the past behind us and focus on the future.

I'm not gonna pretend that the Smash community figure heads, especially on Smashboards, are always right or are a constantly reliable source.

But I think this tier list is pretty much mostly fair and well thought out.

The timing is still funny though. :V

The bottom three are literally the same as Brawl's bottom three.

Just switched around. Thought I'd point that out.

All those rich Nigerian Princes had so much money that it got stolen by l337 h@xx0rz with anime profile pics so they could use it to fund their l337 h@x 0p3r@t1n.

WHO CAN SAY WHERE THE WIND BLOWS.
WHERE THE ROAD GOES.
ONLY TIIIIIME.
Poor Ganny Poo, can never catch a break. This is the second game where he's back in the worst position possible.

At least there's still Melee in my hands.

That ship sucks.

Temmie x Temmie is where its at!

HOOOOiiiiiiTTTT!!!
**** that noise. Dazzibell x Papyrus is where it's at. Fanciness and Old Spaghetti never felt so sweet.

As I was trying to type up right before the hack, I was watching some reaction videos of the last reveals and the reaction to Corrin was pretty much one of unanimous hatred.

Honestly it made me kind of sick. I was upset at Corrin, too, but only because I knew it would make everyone else that much more unhappy and uncomfortable to be around. And then there's the fact that people hate him simply for being too many "reps," with literally no other issue with him to speak of. One gets the impression that Smash has been reduced to one huge fandom-measuring contest, and if a Metroid or Donkey Kong Country character that had not even been in a game released to the West yet had been put into Smash most people would have praised the choice as the greatest thing to ever happen to Smash and never even questioned the blatant marketing.

Here's what I think, Elma and Fiora both have dual-wielding, right?

So what would make Elma unique is her ability to switch from guns to blades, while Fiora focuses on a tension-meter, which boosts her stats the more she's damaged, kinda like Little Mac's K. O. meter, except it's executed in an entirely different way.

Also both would have different special moves and attacks.

Their Final Smashes would also be different too, Fiora's could be a transformation-type move or a Chain-Attack with Melia and Sharla, while Elma's could be a Skell or Overdrive with Lin, Lao, and L.

That's just me though, I think if they wanted to they could add a character with a similar concept executed entirely differently. I think it could be potentially interesting but that's just me.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, that sounds a lot like Lucario's aura gimmick. :p

It's kinda different from Lucario, it's kinda a bit in between Lucario and Little Mac, while she does get more powerful the more she's damaged, it depletes as time goes on. Not in damage, but her power. I guess it's also somewhat like Cloud's Tension Meter too.

I love how they just advertise their Facebook page. Subtle hackers are subtle. :V
I wonder if they're like comedic supervillains, where they have a list of all the people that have ever committed the slightest offenses against them and go around bringing down their websites.

"And THIS lesser human ate the last cup of yogurt in the fridge at work seven years ago! His business site for selling homemade soap is going to PAY for his transgressions!"

That would imply there was ever a good ship.
#ShotsFired

I saw worst ships than that and he haven't dug to the rotten core of them. But just for fun, I'll bring up one that's truly the worst of the worst.

:4mario: x :4drmario:

And yes, some silly fool out there thought this ship was a good idea.

So much happened tonight that I just couldn't go to bed and now I'm only going to bed far later than I should be.

Tomorrow won't be fun.

I voted so that's probably proof enough. :drshrug:

This was mostly so competitive discussion could stop being the unfocused mess that it is. The list was delayed a few weeks so Genesis results could be included (ex. Toon Link). I won't share my vote in full but mine did differ with the following:

Higher: :4fox::4villager::4kirby::4lucas::4mewtwo::4wiifit::4charizard::4samus:

Lower: :4pikachu::4cloud::4ness::4feroy::4bowserjr:

I think the biggest differences I had were Roy/Wii Fit. Cloud/Mewtwo/Lucas/Kirby I had in spots in-between the current Letter ranks. Pikachu/Jr. are slept on IMO, but lack of reps... There's some good Zard/Dedede/Samus mains in my region so I do think they have more potential than people give them credit for, although they still need buffs.

Bruh Smashboards was hacked by Nigerians.
So that's what that email looked like? I didn't even bother opening it myself.

If we're talking a Fiora moveset, I'd go for something more like this for her primary gimmick:

After hitting sweetspots, dodging attacks, getting KO's, etc, Fiora may get a QTE over her head prompting her to press B, like with Soul Voices in the Chronicles games. Suceeding in doing so would not inturrupt whatever she is doing, nor would missing it, but successfully doing it enough times would give her a "Chain Attack", making it so some of her moves/her special attacks can connect almost like turbo mode in Project M, just... not as broken.

Or maybe give her one of her drones or something.

I currently main Pikachu, Mario and Ness. Giving me AAB.

WTF I am such a competitive player lol.

I haven't played Smash in so long though. Going to play tonight. I deleted my memory. Starting fresh with the 'complete' edition.

Keen to give Ike, Bowser Jr. And G&W another go.
