Your main/favourite Low tier characters

[Mister.Kim1]

Are there any low tier character you use because it fits your play style or the sheer positive attributes?

For me, I play despite him being almost at the bottom of the tier list according to EventHubs

 

[Jasper the Tourist]

Jigglypuff. I've tried other characters because the high risk play style of Jiggs can be inconsistent and tiring, but at the same time I just jive with it too much.

 

[Xelrog]

Me and every other Ganondorf main. Sigh...

I have a friend who just does not want to learn to pursue offstage, no matter how critical it might be. I've encouraged him to play the likes of and as a result.

Still very fun to use though I definitely think they need some buffs, I know that list isn't accurate but I'm not surprised they are at the bottom.

I still believe she's pretty decent here at least compared to Brawl and 4 at least for me anyway.

Do we even have an official tier list for Ultimate?

Eh, I guess I enjoy playing as Little Mac, I doubt he'll be anything other than low tier.

Same with Jigglypuff, Robin, Wii Fit Trainer and Zelda but they seem better so eh.

I find Bowser Jr. really fun to play as, despite his obvious flaws. And while there isn't an official tierlist yet, both Piranha Plant and Mr. Game and Watch, whose playstyles I also enjoy, are typically rated quite lowly in most pros' lists.

By contrast, I also play ROB and Olimar, who are typically rated high and top tier respectively, so I guess that balances things out.

Well, since event hub is the closest thing we got to an official tier list...

Ridley would have to be the one.... He basically plays like a bigger Meta Knight, but with a bit of influence from Ganondorf (who is also a blast to play, but I'd never main Ganondorf). Ridley still feels weird to me, yet feels good and easy to play. However sometimes it feels like I could just get my butt stomped at any moment with Ridley because sometimes I feel helpless against certain characters. Thing is with Ridley, I will absolutely decimate people the first few games, however overtime they were start decimating me because it feels like Ridley doesn't have enough options to be able to adapt to anything. So once people figure out how to fight Ridley you're done for. Though I gotta say, I love the heck out of Meta Knight + Ridley in 2v2s. Since they are both fast, they can help each other out pretty easily. Also sometimes Ridley can shoot his fireballs to distracts/heavily damage the enemy while Meta Knight stops the enemy from getting even close due to his pressure on the enemy, and the Fireballs being there makes it even easier for him to do so. Perhaps I'm biased from this duo because I love these characters so much and I had some awesome synergy with someone who also played Meta Knight (because of me funnily enough) and Ridley. On a side note, still can't believe this incredibly hard punish where a Pit was coming back from stage and missed, so Ridley was right behind me and did the Down B, and then I just Forward Smashed Pit off of his tail. Two close ups back to back, it was ridiculous.



Seems like everyone else I am actively trying to get better with is mid-high tier (). But I just wanted to mention Samus/Dark Samus. One of the characters I used to feel perfectly comfortable with in Smash 4 (between Link and Samus they were my go-to when I wanted to win for a long time), and that translated quite well to Ultimate. Mainly I just love using Samus because I know a friend that I play with regularly is trying to get better with Dark Samus. He used to be so bad, but now he's gotten amazing with Samus and we have some pretty close duels sometimes with our Samus dittos and I love seeing him wreck randoms and go toe to toe with actual good players. There are times when we play where I want to try maining Dark Samus, but I'm trying to restrain myself from playing Samus because I have to focus on my top 6, because that's already splitting up my attention a lot as is....... Really hard to do because I love these awesome Samus dittos so much.

I play a lot of Lucas and some puff.

 

[Diddy Kong]

EventHubs is never gonna make a Tier List that accurate, neither accepted by the competitive community.

Despite all that, Diddy is worse than in Smash 4 and Brawl, so there's your answer. I doubt he's actually Low Tier however. I think King K.Rool comes closest to all of my characters and their future tier placements.

How do I answer this without a tier list?

 

[Versus]

One of my mains for this game is Bowser. I enjoy his play style with him being able to kill at low percents and "tough guy" just running through projectiles.

 

[Mogisthelioma]

Kirby. And by some people's perspectives, Dedede (honestly though I find him to be a mid tier and not a low tier).

 

[Coolboy]

is low tier? cause idk,

but in my own experience i just consider characters i am good with high tier and characters i suck with low tier xD

i think that's how people should be treating characters.. cause a character can be high tier according to some smash experts but you can still suck with the character..while a character they consider low tier you might be really good with maybe even at tournament level..
sooo yeah plz no official character tier list... it kinda ruins it in my opinion

 

[Xelrog]

The idea of a tier list is that it treats all characters as if they are being played to their utmost potential. Being good/bad with the character has nothing to do with it.

 

[smoulder]

Hard to answer this without an accurate tier list. I main puff though, which I think is considered low-mid tier.

 

[Goddamn_Angela]

My girls and are considered pretty low on the tier list.

 

[Xelrog]

Wasn't everyone calling a better ? I guess that's not saying much?

I think that died down after people figured out how to cope with the rod.

A lot of people seem to consider Little Mac as one of the worst characters in the game so I suppose I'll go with him. Playing him though is satisfying as hell though, all about reading and punishing. Just like Punch Out itself lol
