I think one of the problems with having Sheilda as a separate character from sheik is that, if you go sheilda in 1 set... that's all that gets put down, and even if you go solo Sheik people still put sheilda because "you retained the option to go zelda." Like there's no clear line about what constitutes as being a sheilda opposed to a solo Sheik. Imo sheilda just shouldn't be considered a character. It's not like sheilda is even some medium between the two characters, pretty much only sheik mains transform into zelda, zelda mains don't ever go sheik mid match.
Should either not be a character, or only count the whole and not its parts as they "still have the option to change characters".
I'm okay with considering all 3 options, but there is no way to tell their usage...

A lot of characters didn't move this time, I was expecting a little bit more of a change but the only characters with a lot of movement were Olimar, Luigi, and DK. Speaking of I'm surprised Luigi went down that much. Below Pokemon Trainer? I'm not so sure about that...

The top tier looks accurate, however.

I think that sheilda should just be replaced with sheik. It's not the zelda's switching to sheik... it's the sheik mains primarily using sheik then going zelda to land 1 move. Or against Pikachu to take 50% to avoid the CG.

Happy to finally see ZSS in a spot I can agree with (ie she's not below Dedede anymore)
Happy to see Ness and Yoshi above Luigi, Luigi is terrible

I was reading the Money Chart and was wondering how did Yoshi move above Ness when less Ness mains are making more money than the Yoshies? (Not complaining, just wondering)
The Success and Popularity chart only factored in 10% of the placement, from what I was told. Most of the influence came from BBR votes and MUs.

But then you have those Zeldas who consistently go full Shiek for their +4 on Ganon and +3 on Fox. Shouldn't those Zeldas be counted as Shieldas since they're taking advantage of the best parts of both Zelda's and Shiek's MUs (basically Shielda's MUs).

I was going to type something funny, but I'm too lazy. I just thought I'd stop by for my obligatory "ZSS #10 like SFP called in 2009" post and leave.

The incredibly ironic thing for me is that I now feel ZSS isn't that good and is placed too high. I just have to be contrary at all times it seems!

Just cast Dedede down into the depths of mid tier where he belongs and we have a pretty good list.

ZSS is where she needs to be. She was too low before and now I agree with where she is.

Other than that, this is an...interesting list to say the least.

She will, though, because Sheik is about as good as the other two characters you mentioned.

That definitely makes since, thanks.

I never had too much trouble fighting PM Trainers, but Charizard and Ivysaur do have a better range game than Luigi. It's best for them to play safe against Luigi, but it's like 60:40 in PM Trainer's favor.

Head-to-head matchups have nothing to do with where a character is on the tier list. It's about how the character does against the cast as a whole, with more emphasis placed on the higher characters than the lower characters.

Wtf those tier names. REQUESTING A CHANGE

Borderline should be called mid
Mid should be called low
Low should be called bottom

It makes more sense. :colorful:

The borderline tier needs to be called the " We Love Pit " tier.

I'm suprised Fox only got a -1.

If he only he didn't main marth... he would be the perfect member :awesome:
Go away

Soon even Pikachu will be higher than Snake!
Possibly I guess

Subscribing to the idiocy that will obviously ensue here

:phone:
=(

Results/usage accounted for 12% of the list. DL the excel file and look at the MU numbers. There's a pretty big difference between the two. The rest is based on BBR members' votes.

But Marth is so easy @_@ And I'm the ****ing Pikachu main.
Exactly, you're a pikachu. Most good Marth's are really good vs MK.

Agreed completely. Luigi needed to go down.

12%
And Sheilda. Given the new way of doing the tierlist, I think Sheik should be the new sheilda and sheilda being done away with.

lol

olimar mains have only ever done well coz hes broken as ****. this just confirms it to a degree. hes been #2 since day 1.

lol, called it 3 years ago
I still think IC > Olimar

It should all just be done like Sethlon's.


Go away bored, I like this being calm.

ICs, Pit, and ZSS moved up quite a bit, too, you know.

Well, Sheilda must be pretty important in some caes, cuz Zelda loses to D3, Sheik goes even with him, but Sheilda beats him.

DK has never placed well in any type of national ever. Sonic has two of the top 6 in MLG...that is better than has ever done and probably will ever do. Will is the only DK that places well at all and sonic has 2 (Espy/X) representatives and a few more much closer to being good than DK does.
Will placed 25th at Apex, better than any mid tier except ocean's rob. He also placed 7th at Whobo (ledge grabs though) Ripple placed 33rd at whobo also with DK only. Those are just off the top of my head. Havent read all 18 pages yet but I'm sure someone has already mentioned this.

Dk has had more top players over the course of its history than sonic . If Cable, Dr. G, ook or Bum still played DK would be much higher.

MidTier Broomers don't make much a difference for the mid tier they represent. Peach would probably be higher if that were the case. :applejack:

Interesting list, Oli and ICies are tied for the 2nd best in the game with Diddy/Snake following them but that's just me.

Tier list is extremely dependent upon the rule set and without a stated rule set that the tier list is following, it seems incredibly arbitrary.

With a **** Wario and Wolf matchup and decent Snake, Marth, and Lucario matchups, I don't think he should be in Mid tier.

He goes pretty much even with the high tiers and borderline tiers (borderline might be slightly his favor).

Wolf the King of Mid/Borderline?

Justice. :3

Though I honestly didn't expect it to happen. Must have been Kain's work, but I'd love to see a write up on how the Wolf discussion went.

Looks accurate.

I guessed the top 5 correctly. Which actually isn't impressive considering it should have been pretty obv. to anyone keeping up with results.

Very this.
If the japanese ruleset really becomes the new standard (as in, the one most people will use), it will convert ICs and Oli very powerful characters and worse, it will be so flat that even can make people to lose even more interest in the game.

Bro, just look at the excel sheet. Placing good matters mediocrely considering there were a plethora of characters to perform better. DK's MU chart is bad because of either bad arguing on the DK panel's part or because they actually suck. The making of the list was fairly objective and the people who voted were given these statistics as they voted (I think).
