Villager is not slept on, imo. People generally seem too consider him a high tier camper. In fact I see lots of people complain.
Default Villager. Most people complain about customs Villager but imo default Villager is also pretty good.

Public opinion of him has grown since before though.

:4wario2::4megaman::4metaknight::4pacman: are the most slept-on characters that are actually good tbh

:4rob: gets points too though because he seems to constantly have decent placing in tournaments but I never hear anyone talking him up

Hmm I should do a tier list

:4sheik::4diddy::4fox::4sonic::rosalina::4zss:
:4pikachu::4falcon::4luigi::4miibrawl::4ness:
:4wario2::4megaman::4mario::4yoshi::4pit::4darkpit::4villager:
:4greninja::4olimar::4rob::4metaknight::4peach::4dk::4pacman:
:4miigun::4kirby::4lucario::4shulk::4marth::4bowser::4ganondorf::4wiifit:
:4palutena::4lucina::4bowserjr::4drmario::4duckhunt::4myfriends::4littlemac::4link:
:4tlink::4gaw::4robinm::4falco::4miisword::4mewtwo:
:4dedede::4jigglypuff::4samus::4charizard::4zelda:
:4lucas:

Characters are kind of ordered within tiers. Customs are... considered but are not necessarily a huge factor either because they're not helpful or because I lack experience (Charizard).

Viability starts tapering off after Pac-Man. After that it gets worse and worse until you reach flat-out unplayable (:troll:).

Characters that could be notably higher:
:4pikachu::4villager::4miigun::4shulk::4bowserjr::4charizard:

Characters that could be notably lower:
:4miibrawl::4ness::4bowser::4ganondorf:

:4wario2: is a solid character to use in uncertain match ups. Even with his changes, his air mobility is stupidly good and his bike is useful for mindgames.

I never realized Honedge was playable! Ooh shoot, something must be wrong with my copy of smash bros, cause I only ever see him on the Kalos Pokémon League stage...:(.

In all seriousness, Mii Swordsfighter is overshadowed by the other Mii Fighter Types.
tbh i rather have :4zelda:x:rosalina: than :4peach:x:rosalina:
:4zss:x:4zelda: is obviously bae. jk, lol.

I think the thing that stuck out to me most in this list is your high opinion of Bowser.

:4wario2: is a solid character to use in uncertain match ups. Even with his changes, his air mobility is stupidly good and his bike is useful for mindgames.
I feel like he could very easily be a top 10 character and I'm starting to feel he might even be a better defensive character than Rosalina. There's just so many silly things about him, especially his B moves and fair/dtilt/dash attack.

Ganon and Bowser have a similar feel as characters IMO (not necessarily in playstyle!). People placing Ganon as a comeback character but not Bowser kind of baffles me. IMO Bowser is a better defensive character and Ganon does better offensively (especially in advantage). Bowser has a far superior run (his dash is crap though lol) and actually has a functional grab range (but you knew that) with two viable kill throws. Both characters thrive off rage and can kill quite quickly. When customs are considered Bowser gets a tool similar to Ganon's dropkick in Dash Slash which is a legitimate landing mixup. Like I said, he could be lower, but if he's lower then so is Ganon most likely.

Is there a reason in your mind why Ganon would be that high but not Bowser?

Holy ship why has this pairing never cross my mind until now?

That's 3 straight internet wins done in almost no time at all.

It's kind of hard to express since I'm not too familiar with either character, but I feel like Ganon's ability to actually follow up on hits, generally lower endlag, tech chases off Flame Choke, win instead of lose with sideB suicide, and terrifying 50:50 situations (dthrow>fair or >airdodge read>dair at the ledge, etc) makes him a better character.

Bowser having disjointed grounded A moves is a pretty significant advantage I think most people take for granted, but his everything is punishable, when he gets a hit it doesn't lead into another hit (save for Dash Slash>Bowser Bomb with customs on), his command grab is significantly worse, his neutralB is worse than Charizard's by only causing hitstun up close, and upB no longer has invincibility which makes it less crazy as an OoS option.

Fair points. But I agree that Ganon is a lot scarier when on the offensive than Bowser.

If you asked me why I put Charizard so low as opposed to Bowser/Ganon I'd struggle a little more :p. It's probably because I feel a lot of Charizard's strengths are "dishonest" with super armor and what not whereas Ganon and Bowser don't have nearly as much (there are exceptions, Bowser's USmash :mad:). Dragon Rush is really good, though, and Rock Hurl is likely extremely annoying with that frame-1 super armor. In general I guess I'm a lot more scared to challenge Bowser's or Ganon's stuff than I am Charizard's.

They all kind of suck, especially with getting in, though, and thrive off of getting the right read.

People keep on placing Pika on high tier and I'm like, "is this Brawl?"
Custom :4falcon: is alright. Some of his customs are either good, unusable, or mostly situational. The only bad custom is the explosive falcon dive because of its reduced recovery height. As you have noticed in our friendlies, the wind raptor boost has a messed up wind hit box which can either help or **** :4falcon: over while heavy raptor boost is slower but provides super armor. I find the later to be more helpful than wind boost but the original might be the safest one. Dash Falcon Punch works as a recover like it did in 64 while heavy is just unreliable, no super armor Falcondorf punch. Falcon Strike is alright but only works if the opponent is directly above you. The Lightning Kick is my personal favorite but the Multi Kick is good for early barage of hits.

6.5/10 They don't really do much to improve :4falcon: but they add a bit of flair to him.
I thought most would prefer normal Raptor Boost though, since it has KO potential around 100%. I guess the Heavy Skull Bash feel it has makes it worth using.
Slightly improved recovery, otherwise pretty much the same.

The different Falcon Kicks have some shenanigans with them, an acquaintance of mine found silly Lightning Falcon Kick footstool combos week 1 of 3DS, while I found that Falcon Kick Fury has some dumb windboxes that can jank you if you trade with it:


oh and sideB 3 is DUMB for recovery, for the same reason Heavy Skull Bash is. Used out of hitstun gives a ridic boost forward that can shoot from left magnifying glass to right ledge when timed properly.
that kick is dumb lmao

LOL IT'S SO BAD. I LOVE YOU BUTTER KNIFE.

Also, lol at Mega being slept on. I'm a little conflicted because he can't make mistakes on his punishes otherwise he gets lolcombo'd and/or a meaty smash attack. He's so hard to kill if played safe, but it's hard for him to kill if both players are playing safe. He can't pressure up close safely, so he can't capitalize on an attribute that most of the top tiers do so well. As people get better at playing against him, since he's so awkward, I wonder how he's going to do.

I do think he's amazing. AAA utilt, MB>grab, UAir/Fsmash landing traps, Z-drop MB/BAir/DAir edge guarding. He can be pretty straightforward, but it's so good. His meta is kinda at a standstill right now, despite peoples opinion of him rising. Nothing new is really being done outside of the custom fiasco.

Depends on preference. I prefer Heavy for its super armor but it's blocked easily.

Nah, I'm actually starting to agree on Charizard the more time passes. He hits the least hard of the heavyweights and most of his strength is in gimmicks like superarmor and invincibility (fsmash). He's got quick and powerful OoS options...though usmash has like no reach in front of him.

I hate Charizard so it's no real loss to me if he's trash, but since he's probably the least straightforward heavy I always kind of secretly hoped that there was some untapped potential there.
