Oh Abadango...

The last tier should be Zelda and Samus only, in my opinion. Donkey Kong, Charizard, Ganon, Lucina and Link are considerably better than Zelda, so much so that I can't consider them to be part of the same tier.

But at least Zelda is in bottom tier -- he got something right!

Forgot to say it's customs off which I think Zelda isn't dead last. Custom - there is a case for worst character.

Zelda should be mid, honestly I can see low tier but I wonder why you see so lowly of her. She's not that bad and the mechanics favor her. If you think that she is significantly worst than the cast, then how does ven, Nairo, and you do well with her in tournaments.
Oh really? I will donate my severely weakened Canadian dollars to @Nairo 's stream if this happens.
@Nairo you better beat ZeRo at Evo with Zelda

Actually she benefits from customs being to somewhat force an approach and Phantom Strike becomes a great move. Jiggly imo is dead last. I already thought she was bottom tier but now that she has no good customs, I'm confident shes dead last.

Because they're great players, and players can do still do well with bad characters. Doesn't change the fact that Zelda is bad.

One good thing about not liking any characters in this game (so far): Tier lists don't affect me at all.

They're fun to look at though.

So like, I was in an online tourney with 171 people in it. It was so bad. It went way too slow and was unorganized. Literally a waste of my time. I wasted time when I could have been playing the Splatoon testfire (I got a few rounds of it in, though). I made it pretty far before I decided to quit. The loser's bracket was legit not moving. Horrible tourney.

Sounds like The Tourney From Hell @ Macchiato Macchiato and I were in a while back.

The organizers literally stopped streaming and disappeared before it was over and told us to figure it out.

You're just baiting me with this, aren't you.


Customs off, I'm ignoring Miis because they're both unfairly and inconsistently restricted between region so it's hard to rank them.

EDIT: I'm curious as to who you think Zelda is better than in customs off.
I'm glad to see that you think Peach is top 15. So many people underestimate how strong of a character she is.

I've said it before, but you always make the best tier lists. This one looks really good imo.

What are your reasonings on Wario being 8th and Dark Pit over Pit? Wario is very underrepresented so idk about him and I thought it was agreed on that Pit was better.

Reflectors tier list based solely on their reflecting capabilities

Tiers are not necessarily in order

feel free to yell at me

S: :4falco::4fox::4miigun:(Echo Reflector)
A: :4rob::4zelda::4mario::4mewtwo::4drmario::4miisword:(Reversal Slash)
B: :4megaman:(Skull Barrier):4pit:(Guardian Orbitars):4darkpit:(Guardian Orbitars):4ness:
C: :4pit:(Upperdash Arm):4darkpit:(Electroshock Arm)
D: :4palutena:

Falco - his Reflector comes out extremely quickly and has a ton of range, which can shut down stuff like Villager's approaches from far away where you can't be punished as easily. Pretty good reflector.
Fox/Gunner - come out quickly, and the only ones that can be indefinitely held, which can be useful at times (ex: Megaman charging fsmash)
R.O.B./Zelda - mediocre startup, long-lasting. Pretty good.
Mario/Mewtwo/Dr. Mario/Swordfighter - quick, but has a strict timing that can be hard to pull off. Also all suffer from a bit of endlag.
Megaman - long ranged which I think is really good, but takes forever to come out.
Guardian Orbitars - fairly quick and covers both sides, but the 45 degree angle isn't helping anyone really. Not as useful because of that.
Ness - too much startup lag and not enough active time. Super strong, though, at least.
Upperdash/Electroshock Arm - large startup, considerable endlag, and also has the weird 45 degree thing I think
Palutena - bad. slow, short, laggy. bad.

Argh I'm bad at this.

@ Lavani Lavani

Palutena, Samus, Charizard, Ganondorf, and Dr. Mario.
Ah.

I agree on Samus and I could be convinced on Palutena/Charizard plausibly. Doc's buttons are way too good despite his other shortcomings though. Ganon idk but his power, range, and surprisingly low endlag for a heavy plus a command grab have me skeptical that he'd be worse than Zelda.

Pits are mostly equal but Electroshock gets rid of Luma so I consider him better due to the Rosa MU. I may be underselling Pit's strengths in other MUs though.

Wario I'd go into more if I weren't on phone, mainly it's the combination of a reqlly good command grab, great defensive tools plus waft charging passively means he's gaining the upper hand gradually without having to engage the opponent, and his offstage game is top notch. Generally speaking the character is really safe and still gets great reward for it.

Palutena can use her Reflect Barrier to gimp people like Ike and the fact it halts momentum can throw people off. Not a good reflector, but a decent move in my opinion. Also, the Pits' Arms don't actually reflect; they deflect projectiles sort of like how powershielding lasers can make them bounce off in another angle away from the user and shielder. If anything, I'd swap Pally with the Pits' Arms as they don't actually reflect.

I understand about zeldas placement but.
Samus worse than Swordfighter?!
Well I could understand if you believe that he is not low tier but you do, AND he's better than Samus
What low opinions do you have of her?
Samus - Can't kill, people fall out of all her multihitting moves, moves are slow, shields shut her down, no approach, bad neutral, tall and floaty.

Diddy over Sheik still, omoshiro.

I find the MK placement interesting along with the ROB placement. Bowser and Robin I find interesting as well. Other than that, I think I see your reasoning for all of these.

Megaman can walk/run/item toss/grab/shield with his reflector and it has 0 endlag. S tier or riot.

Just asking not because I'm mad (you will have to make a Swordfighter tier for that)
I was just shocked that is all.
