The last chart was originally made since nobody was running such a project, and I love statistics and that sort of thing. It was a bit bumpy, but turned out nicely and lead to the new tier list, the first in years.
While it's still fairly up-to-date, a few people would like something done a bit better, especially since then, the Smash 64 board has gained more of its own section, its own backroom and has grown since (as far as tournaments and such go).
This time around, we're going with a numerical system as there were many debacles about exactly how good/bad match-ups are. For this since match-ups at best/worst are about 75-25, I've only included those numbers. However, if there's discussion that a match-up is actually better/worse than that, I'll change it and adjust the colouring.
We're also doing stage-specific charts as last time for a master chart, it was often averaged out. With this method, we'll have much more precise data, and know how each character does on each stage.
Currently, we're working on Dreamland, and will move on to the other stages later. As a default, I converted all the match-ups from the last chart to a mutliple of 10, and used the previous chart as a base for this one, so there are bound to be many accuracy errors, as well as precision ones. Characters are in weighted order, that being, being good against Pikachu is significantly more valuable than being good against Samus. This is all ordered and well analyzed, and I'll put up the data for this once changes begin.
We're also going to do one character at a time.
This is a community project, and my opinion is of appropriate weight as anyone else's, I'm just leading the project.
For mathematical information on how I'm calculating weighing match-ups, etc, please see this post.
