Did you just report me? Please at least read the thread I linked to before you start making assumptions. Once you read it, I think you will feel happy rather than irritated.

Here is a list of games with tier lists.

<snip> oops

Are you sure that tier lists exist for all of these games except Brawl?

Edit: oh, nvm. I see what you did there. Your argument is ****ing perfect and should be stickied, BUT FOR GOD'S SAKE WHY DID YOU POST IT IN THIS MANNER? You did nothing but ensure that your thread is going to get locked.

Congratz, you've managed to figure out what many people already have X_X
Well, there's still a lot of people on GameFAQs who don't know this type of basic stuff. Of course I knew, but I phrased it in the form of a discovery to add to the humor. >.>

I don't get it, he is just some scrubby idiot who contradicted himself.
lol, I'm guessing you just said "tldr" and skimmed? I guess you missed the line that said "but then I thought some more." C'mon guys. This is Smashboards. I thought you people would catch this stuff. >_> Allow yourself a laugh.

Wow, you don't read at all, you are too busy crucifying people to actually read. I mean this is a ****ty thread but still.

How is this ****ty? Like I said, there is no contradiction. I clearly said "but then I thought some more." That means that I reassessed the situation and flipped my beliefs around. Furthermore, you couldn't have possibly known this, but of course I knew all this from the start. It's just common sense. But I phrased it that way to 1. add humor and 2. to show scrubs why their way of thinking doesn't work.

This thread is ****ty because the title is "Tiers don't exist guys!", the OP links to a thread on GAMEFAQS of all places where the OP of both threads says that tiers DO exist.

Edit: Actually Pubik, it's just that I spent hours and hours researching every fighting game in existence, found all of the ones where someone has earned more than $500 dollars total or there has been more than $1000 dollars in a pot all at one tournament, and listed it so I could whip it out during Tier debates, and this is the first real chance I've gotten to use it so I jumped the gun, and I'm sorry, but I was like an excited child on christmas day, you know?

Shadow Light Master, making all of these assumptions is holding you back from seeing why things are the way they are. Stick around SWF for awhile and try to see why these rules are in place before assuming and slowly killing your credibility as a poster.

Edit after reading more:....wtf was the point of this thread?

So, was he arguing for both sides or..?
I basically pretended I was a scrub, then pretended I rethought everything. I then wrote out the correct argument of my "corrected" thinking. I knew all that all along, but I wrote the topic that way for lulz.

So after reading all that all I have to show for it is the common knowledge that skill > tiers
What you forgot to add though was that skill levels between players can vary by very minimal amounts while the character advantage (tiers) can vary by more, thus skill is not greater than tiers, a sufficient level of skill difference can overpower tier/character advantages when it is outweighed by the skill level difference.

I'm sure you knew this, I'm just pointing out that it isn't so black and white, and btw basically everybody knows all this stuff already.

No offense man, but you need to read at least the first 10 posts of the topic.

as long as characters are wining tournements there will be a teir list. a teir list is based off of characters winning tourneys. if mk wins the most tourneys he will be top of the list. he might have a lot of adavantages but its not calculated in the forming of a teir list.

also tires don exits

Wow...Stereotype, making fun of people with a different opinion AND insulting language all rolled into one neat package.
And I thought these things only happened at Gamefaqs...

This topic is going to be locked because a) you have double posted repeatedly throughout the thread b) no one on smashboards really believes in the nonexistence of tier lists and c) you linked to something on gamefaqs without actually posting it.

I read your little Link.

The guy in there is stupid....Its like saying this.

"I beat Snake with my shiek on lvl 9 but i can't beat Link with my shiek at lvl 9"
"Snake is better than link supposidly so this is evidence tiers don't exist."

I respond to him

"No this is evidence that you are a ****** and that Links AI is better than Snakes AI"

1. I'm sorry about double posting. I'm new here, sometimes I forget that Smashboards has an edit button.
2. This is irrelevant.
3. I'm the topic creator!

I didn't use insulting language. Good grief. And the existence of tiers isn't an opinion, it's a fact. OK?

I read your little Link.

You DIDN'T read my little link, or its first 10 posts.

Yes, I knew this, but thank you for pointing it out. I know this thread is common knowledge, but I thought that people would get a few laughs out of it. Apparently there's an equal amount of people who don't read things on GameFAQs and on Smashboards. :(

Cruisin in my Jeep.. I wish.
first off tiers do exist but if your good enough with a character, you can beat top tiers. and on your gamefaqs forum, are you arguing your own statement, why would your do that? thats stupid. you need another person to argue it with not just by yourself.

I'm not arguing with my own statement. Read carefully, there's a line that says "but then I thought some more."

EDIT: I can understand why it may look like I'm arguing with myself. Some impatient idiots broke up my posts. **** the character limit on GameFAQS. >_>
