No, Straked is right. On a jab tier list, your looking only at the jab, not at follow ups cus those involve other moves.
Then this is stupid. Who cares whose jab combo is the best? In ANY competitive game, jab is used to cancel into other moves because of how quick jabs are by nature. Disregarding jab cancels is taking away the greatest things about Snake/Ike's/Luigi's jabs.

If this is to be a legit list, we need more hard data. Frames startups, hitbox ranges, ending lags, hitstun frames and/or advantage frames, percent damage, and general utility (JC combos, projectile stopping, setups, etc.) are all things needed for this to be something more than an impulsive "LOL I WUZ BOREDED" semi-spam topic that we all know we don't need more of.

I did not say that. This tier list is going to be based on everyone's jab to it's FULLEST extent.

Snake's jab is pretty bad, only for its priority and power it's the best? The 3rd hit (the powerful one), can be powershielded. Ike has the best, because it's capable to do amazing damage. If Ike hadn't a such jab and instead simialr to his other incredibly slow attacks in speed, he would be lower in the tier list.

Don't diss Dedede. Or else one day you're walking through a dark alley and BAM hammer to the face.
I have some of the best DI in Florida. My spotdodge also starts on like, frame 2.

Then you'll get out of your spotdodge just in time to be hammered in the face. :)
Dedede would be better off grabbing me. :)

Then proceed to neutral b.

Haha Straked has jokes.

Who else comes close to Ike's?

Snake, ZSS, and Lucas

Edit: I cant believe this thread is still going on
like this lol
People keep mentioning Snake.

I'm starting to think this community can't DI out before the third hit.

And ZSS and Lucas just have speed. When compared to Ike? LOL.
