I already posted my list here: http://smashboards.com/threads/character-competitive-impressions.367669/page-555#post-18912170

To the Zeldas: General perception is Zelda is at the bottom, so that's where she is. Taking into account of lack of representation and lack of familiarity, I feel having her at the bottom with Lucina and G&W feels safe (but she doesn't deserve her own tier because that's frankly stupid). Until I see more high level play that's where I'll keep her.

There was some attempt to order this for the most part
I can't find my (Second to Rosalina) baby Villager in this tier list. Where is he?:happysheep:

just for the record villager ledge camping is like Melee ledge camping: do it only as long as you need to get offensive momentum back

The way you felt about Jiggs is also how I felt about Dedede in this game. Used to think he was good, but time passed and now I seriously think Deeds is one of the worst characters in the game. He has no approach whatsoever with his aerials being laggy except for nair and that doesn't have much external reach. Gordos are painfully unsafe to chuck out in neutral especially since almost anything sends them flying back at D3. As long as the other person plays it safe, Dedede can't do a thing to them and he just gets juggled if he tries to do anything in an attempt to get things moving. He has so many bad MUs due to his flaws with his worst (and most painful) one being Mega Man imo. There's other stuff I didn't mention, but at this point, I'd be drilling the point in. I still like playing him for funsies though.
I was the same with Dedede too, actually lol. He's still my most-played character on my fighter records...though Rosalina's rapidly catching up. Looking back at my October 13 list I had him at #16 back then lmao

Like I said, nerfed by system mechanics; did you know Mega Man and Meta Knight used to be able to kill at 0% with their ff bairs? Now it doesn't do enough downwards knockback to even be considered for gimping. I don't know why Fox's fair is still amazing for gimping (his fastfall speed I guess?) but it's basically the one autolink spike that can still successfully gimp/kill.

Also, the landing hitbox for fair was moved forward on top of the damage buff.

Early prediction: Mewtwo will be either Mid B at worst and Low A at best.
I want to believe, I really do.

Oh derp. I had included him but then took him off because I was unsure, fixed it, put him between Pac-Man and Ike, then I placed Duck Hunt on the bottom of B tier because then I remember dat kill struggle.

I also just noticed that even in my own list I place Greninja just out of top 15.


I don't even.

And as I discussed with @ HeroMystic HeroMystic yesterday, I believe Zelda has a strong match-up against and is above Lucina in terms of tier status. I have yet to be convinced otherwise.

You are a disgrace to evolution.
Wow, I'm replacing you with @ Berserker. Berserker. in my story.

Although, I only do loldumb stuff against @Spirst (who refuses to play against it or joins in with some equipment character), @Locke 06 (who leaves the lobby and goes to play For Glory), @Parcheesy (who leaves the lobby then sits in his own, alone), @King_Peachee (who probably hates me because of how hard he's gotten loldumb'd), and @Fenrir VII (who ends up leaving and turning the game off).

I AIN'T THAT BAD.

But if I ever play you, I'm ledge camping you now.

Too much characters were proven to be good at this point

Most of the characters at my B tier are:
a) Good characters with little to no representation (ex: Shulk, Greninja, Villager)
b) No-so-good characters with active representation (ex: Kirby)

I would use the fact that Lucina is the inferior waifu so hence why she's lower in the tiers.

But sis, although I believe you have the inferior Smash waifu, in terms of actual tier placement, I have more faith in your waifu to be higher than my waifu.

We could just be bottom tier waifufegs for life though. :^(

Tfw Macchiato places my character higher than I did.

b) No-so-good characters with active representation (ex: Villager, Kirby)
I can only see Shulk and Greninja going up as time passes honestly. Both are very technical characters and so their meta is going to develop more slowly, Greninja's kit just flows really well and he can pull of some absurd things with his moves; Shulk's gimmick is a naturally difficult one to master but I'm pretty sure he can only get better.

Maybe I'm just being optimistic but hey some optimism is healthy.

Keep in mind Diddy has the easiest time killing Sheik with U-throw > U-air at roughly 70% on FD and even lower on Halberd and other stages.

Lavani's has been the best list I've seen on here thus far.

Dedede is actually my 4th most played charcater behind Ganon, Falcon, and G&W (I played Falcon and G&W a ton before reserving them for funsies). I was seeing far more progress with my Ganon and ROB than I was with my Dedede. Pikachu, a character I only recently picked up, is improving at a faster rate and Kirby, a secondary at best, is showing more potential than my D3 will possibly ever have. He really got the short end of the stick in this game lol

I'm interested in your thoughts on Link and Robin being as high as they are.

Also Bowser and Ganondorf being above DK.

Lol, my tier list would be hilarious.

:227:
It can't be the worst one here :smirk: You should post it!

It's actually pretty amusing to see all these lists lolwhat have I done

Can we at least get some explanations for these incredibly radical lists?

I'm not sure if these are words of praise or a veiled jab at how terrible these lists are lol :186:

I could write a huge essay on why personally I find Zelda to be the worst character in the game, but eh, might be too much. And I'll be rejected by Macchiato and venn anyway.

The essay would include at least one thing that one character has that they can do better than Zelda as well though. :^)
