[choknater]

imo the top of the tier list is starting to balance out, with ppl getting better, metaknight doesnt seem as broken anymore

just my opinion

Watch what you say, a few people might slit their throats hearing you say that.

But I agree.

 

[choknater]

lol people will always overreact

but yeah it could also be that the issue has been argued so much that i don't realize how much dominance mk has over the rest

OR IT COULD BE that the issue was so overblown that mk was never really as good as people made him out to be people who are good at the game and have tried out everyone in the entire cast can realize that mk takes a lot of effort and skill to play well, and when played well he might be the best character, but not by THAT much

Thats a big COULD BE.

 

[choknater]

yes :D i believe it

 

[The Milk Monster]

I agree with Chok.
People have just been hard at work to work on their metagame, and having metagame to beat Metaknight.
I have a feeling, that once someone(Besides Reflex), gets really good with all 3 of PT's pokemon, he'll raise up, possibly Samus, but iunno.

 

[Teran]

Really?

In all seriousness though, I agree that Meta Knight isn't broken, he's just really good. There is a difference. He definitely isn't a pick up and play ownage machine, I can testify to that. I think we should just let the puffball be, the metagame will evolve, and he won't be the indestructable force people make him out to be. This all reminds me too well of Melee Sheik...

 

[wangston]

Yeah there is no doubt meta is the best character in the game. But he isn't an instant win button nor is he so broken he needs to be banned. We all just got a cause of meta knight fever. He is still a tough one to fight but he isn't unbeatable you just have to play your best.

 

[da K.I.D.]

he does some rediculous stuff tho, nobody can deny that...

As do Snake, G&W, D3 and Falco. It's the whole point of top tier.

 

[Jim Morrison]

Having 25% tourney dominance at this point of the game makes me sad.

true enough, but i still think hes good enough for his own tier.

lol

Marth had more than ever since Ken started playing in Melee.

 

[choknater]

i think peach and kirby have high potential still

 

[PKNintendo]

i think peach and kirby have high potential still

I actually agree. Peach mains are 2 good. And Kirby has some sweet players backing him up.

New tier list pl0x

 

[Bowser King]

New tier list pl0x

Seriously, stop. It's not funny seeing you post "New tier list OMG!!!one11" every post. They'll make one when they feel like it and by you asking it's not going to make it come any faster>_>


-Bowser King

 

[da K.I.D.]

its coming pretty soon tho...

 

[~Xero~]

its not really that needed. most of them will only be moved around 1-2 spaces.

 

[Teran]

In any case Top Tier will stay pretty much intact imo. I expect a fair bit of shifting in the rest of the list though, the metagame has developped quite a bit. Still, it matters not, let's just play the game and leave the BRoomers in peace, and then flame them for their new list. "Zomg you cantz play Br4wl m3w2 has gr4bz!"

 

[da K.I.D.]

i expect diddy, peach, ROB, wario, Fox, yoshi, and wolf to be making some big moves.

 

[Terios the Hedgehog]

Peach is sick. Anyone see the bair trap yet?

 

[da K.I.D.]

vids plox!!

 

[Metro Knight]

Yoshi and Link are due next game.

 

[Dark Shifter]

imo

marth is gonna move up to top.

g&w is gonna move down but not by much

olimar, toon link, peach, diddy will all go up. diddy may go behind or above wario.

falco stay where he is, rob move down, maybe just switching places with marth.

mk will have his own tier.

 

[PKNintendo]

i expect diddy, peach, ROB, wario, Fox, yoshi, and wolf to be making some big moves.

Okay here I go.

Diddy will move up
Peach will move up
Rob will move down
Wario will move down
Fox will move down
Wolf will move... Where?
Yoshi will move up

[N.A.G.A.C.E]

i just started playing as shiek and i find switching from shiek to zelda for kills is very useful and i don't feel using these characters in this way is represented on this tier list. Since you are not forced to switch during the match but some might do so i feel that shiek,zelda, and zelda/shiek should each have a spot on the tier list since using just one or both of them together is a viable strategy.

Now if you want to argue that they did not do this in melee so why do it in brawl i would say using both is far more useful in brawl then it was in melee and not everything that was done for melee still makes sense for brawl.

So in conclusion feel on the next tier list there should not only be a spot of both shiek and zelda but also a spot for them as one character.

 

[Archangel]

I can see alot of people making a leap. I wouldn't be shocked if only 1 or 2 characters fell. Personally I think Captain Falcon...maybe Yoshi are the only ones that are almost surely going to stay. Actually sonic may even leave to make Captain Falcon the single worse character on the game....of course this is only in terms of regular brawl. I'm not sure what the list would look like for Brawl+. Any Ideas?

 

[Ryusuta]

There's a lot of very... let's say "puzzling" things about your post, Spam. Perhaps the most confusing, though, is that you'd even compare Sonic to Falcon.

Not sure what your confused about. Last I heard Sonic and Falcon where in the same tier. However Sonic has good enough moves that he could get up a tier. However I just don't see Captain going anywhere.

 

[Archangel]

Basically what I'm getting at is I could see everyone else leaving the low tier but Captain Falcon. Unless you have Brawl+

 

[Ryusuta]

But why single out Sonic and Yoshi in particular? They're both way better off than Falcon. Even people that HATE those characters acknowledge that.

I Didn't single them out on purpose. They where the only other low tiers that came to mind. I do think Yoshi is decent but at a Major disadvantage as far as recovery goes. Ive played a good Yoshi before though.

 

[Snowstalker]

Yoshi actually has a decent, hard to gimp recovery.

 

[Ryusuta]

Yeah, Yoshi's recovery is absolutely NOT a weak point of his.

 

[Teran]

And his bair gives him great horizontal aerial mobility. Of course after getting ***** several times by Orion's Yoshi, I'd have worked that out by now.

 

[da K.I.D.]

Okay here I go.

Diddy will move up
Peach will move up
Rob will move down
Wario will move down
Fox will move down
Wolf will move... Where?
Yoshi will move up

I think wolf will go down.

HOLY ****

i just came...

well ignoring brawl +, basically the way i see it is that low tier should be broken up into low and bottom tier. and bottom tier should prbably consist of CF, ganon, link and jiggz, while the rest of what is now low tier + acouple others should be low tier.

i was about to get upset, but if sonic was the only low tier you could think of off the top of your head, than its not a big deal

Yoshi actually has a decent, hard to gimp recovery.

every one except link is hard to gimp in this game.

but yoshis recovery is average, its just odd. its not like its better than the characters with multi jumps and a basic up b like kirby or something, but its not bad. Its just hard to understand and weird to work with.

I think wolf will go down.

Tether recoveries are easy to gimp.
