I wish lana's spear had more going for it while summoning gate is only fun when you get argorok. Nothing needs to be said about the tome, it's bad despite being fast.
Not so sure how a tierlist would look cause honestly after awhile most characters become just a one move trick pony (darunia C4, Ghirahim C4, Midna C3 etc.) so maybe some reasons? Don't have much for cia wizzro or twili midna but I can toss some things I noticed, might get combos wrong by going one ahead or behind so srry if I do.

C3 is love C3 is life, It's good in every way. Waveclear, single captains/bosses or big bosses. If you really feel like wanting more damage from darkness than just spam C5 to pound the ground for free darkness instead of having to use X.
Sheik has everything. Shield to help from 4 damage (doesn't really help on TP maps tho) Bolero/meteor to juggle the ******s known as moblins. Lightning is meh, darkness is horrible outside of the song to drag enemies in, Light song/C5 is what you spam on this character to clear groups. It's decently big but will never be Link's spin attack.
Zelda Dominion rod is really strong and fun, everything but C2 is useful in some way. Baton is ok I guess... tornado spamming is fun for killing a distance away but that requires rng being on your side while the rest of her kit is having to be up in their faces to get moves off.
**** I mean Rapier, is again ok since she just needs to keep light up and spam C4. Special spam is good too.

Hey they're the same character, Spam C2. Especially for Volga with focus spirit going, it's ****ing hilarious. Maybe Volga is too high? Dunno but C2 and then C5 to clear groups is good so he's at least more than half a character.
I really don't wanna talk about the plethora of items Link has and no opinion on spinner cause hell if I'm gonna spend 10 bucks to get that when I spent 20 already for all the DLC, but will say Magic rod when 8-bit is silly to look at in a good way and you just spam C3 for that.
Gauntlets is cool too if only cause it's hilarious seeing him pull out a pillar and smacking everyone with it. C3 is good. But sadly unless a map forces you to use one of his other items, there really is no need to use the other things when Master Sword C2 exists.
Great fairy is huge AOE, and by AOE I mean a lot of ebony. Okay that was bad, umm. Fountain is good for waveclear and so is bombs... almost every move is good for that. so KO rack up but y great fairy when Master sword?

Multiple people have said Ruto is bad. I honestly think she's decent at best. She's no Sheik or Link, but keeping water gauge full with just two C4 cancels is good enough to me. She takes out big bosses easily too with a full Y combo. But yeah she's an X spammer, I guess kinda C4 only to keep water up? C5 can be good too if bosses/officers feel like being ******s and blocking, might as well throw a wave at them that hits them 7 or so times to chip away at their damage somewhat.
Wizzro has bretty good waveclear with either shadow laser or just C4, helps that if you use C4 while alternating the previous hits instead of the same direction the balls that you're shooting from C4 can possibly hit the others and blow them up getting more enemies in the process.
Twili Midna is good apparently, all I know is Canon is good cause huge radius the three shots have, decent waveclear and X is really good too when full, which is incredibly easy to build up since just using a full Y combo or even the bridge attack builds it up to max insanely fast.
Ghirahim is a C4 spammer, but it just feels so good and safe since he does most his moves from a distance. It does both clearing waves and gets rid of anything that's closing in on him... just be sure to spam dodge so you don't go and spawn the next to useless bokoblins. Using X on the officers and bosses chunks them when using C4 especially. C5 is okay I guess, it feels like small range at first when ascending, but landing it prolly has more due to the explosion radius than Link's spin attack. Still no Link C2 tho lol, nothing will.
Ganon clears like a monster in KO rack up. That aside, his C5 I believe is good for just about everything (orb smacking) then C6 is for the huge range bitchslap you need to kill just about anything, even if officers/bosses block the move it still chunks them quite a bit. X is good too when full, too bad it takes like 3 seconds to do. C6 ganon is about the only thing with more range than Link's Master sword C2
Fi is a C6 spam character, C4 isn't that reliable to clear groups better to use the previous one I said. Not much to say outside of keep light up I guess since she's all about groups. But ir randomly sometimes doesn't wanna give you refresh on light despite her boots glowing. Kinda suffers from killing bosses, officers are ok I think.

Darunia is the strongest character in the game coupled with Ganon, too bad he just consists of C4 spam to kill groups and bosses/big bosses anyways. Using C5 (hammer handle into ground thingy) takes too long cause he has a need to do a ballerina spin for some reason instead of just using the damn move and if the officers and bosses block it, then it was almost 7 seconds of time wasted (in most TP maps, time is of the essence). Meteor is meh and again a slow animation before it actually happens, stomping the ground grab the meteor than throw. It's strong tho, haven't really tried against big bosses.
Lana is underwhelming and only thing that keeps her from being in the same tier as Agitha is summoning gate argorok. Spear is only good for X and C5 I believe (deku leaf smack)
Tome is next to useless imo, when her best waveclear is pushing three tiles that barely does anything unless you're frame perfect to run up to em and X them (I get it like 2 out of 5 times maybe) that's not very gud.
Impa's only good moves is the water kunais (c5?) to groups/officers like dinolfos moblins etc. maybe the bosses too, then C6 for big bosses but takes too long to get to cause of the dragging kick she does, but even then it doesn't even take out half a weak gauge meter. A special spammer is what I'm getting at.
Naginata or wutever is kinda sorta good too cause holycrapspecialisgood, but C5 is ok for clearing groups and think C3 is decent too, I think it's C4 that's bad
Zant's C2 is good against big bosses just to get their meter to half sadly, rest of it you gotta spam special 2 times then attack a couple times. C3 is stone pillar thing I think, not very gud unless wanna get moblins in the air I guess. C4 is just to build up the special attack bar, never use. C5 worst move (wallmaster) never use ever. C6 is decent but only if groups feel like lining up to die.
Zant's main problem being he can't kill the bigger enemies easily with his combos. X when meter full is only useful for clearing groups, and by then you already used C6 to clear a group lol.
Cia feels meh, her C4 I believe spawns links that just goes in a straight line doing a barrage of attacks, so it's good against big bosses I guess? One and a half brings the meter down to 0.
She's a C2 spammer and maybe C5 just for the explosions. C6 I don't see much use out of, it spawns 4 links all from different sides as they charge up for their swords for 3 seconds to do a spin attack. y use that when C4 exists.

Agitha, nothing to say here.
