I don't just watch videos. I go through the entire freaking site of Smashboards and suck out every last bit of relevant information I can find. Fair enough?that is correct... but I mean.. videos aren't anything to go off of. I don't mind hoards of n00bs posting quite as much if they have at least played the game for you know... maybe a week at least.
I know, it really pisses me off, too. I was a C. Falcon main in Melee, now I have to change. ****.I don't just watch videos. I go through the entire freaking site of Smashboards and suck out every last bit of relevant information I can find. Fair enough?
And nobody seems to be paying attention to this but me. If your tier list has G&W anywhere under high tier, it's wrong, because he's really ****ing good in Brawl.
Also Ganondorf and Captain Falcon for now are horrible. They have the least overall variety in their movesets.
Marth got nerfed in the USA version, and I've ***** many-a-marth in tourney matches so far on the japanese version using snake.I'll make this short and accurate, Marth>everyone. Close thread.
Also its good to note that these characters have placed well in tournaments thusfar. This isn't saying TOO much because many people don't have access to the game to practice throughly yet, but still:
Metaknight
Peach
Pikachu
Snake
Zelda
ZZS
As of now, these have been common heads of tournaments on the SWF. Just food for thought.
1.Its waaaay too early to start making tiers.I don't just watch videos. I go through the entire freaking site of Smashboards and suck out every last bit of relevant information I can find. Fair enough?

Do we actually have any proof of this at all yet? Last I saw was an incredibly unreliable few posts by a guy without any evidence what so ever. Has anyones games updated yet or has a video been made showing the differences? I really doubt this has happened, and I also know people are exaggerating his superiority. Not that he isn't very good, just not infallible.Marth got nerfed in the USA version
sonic belongs lowerI've had the game since a few days after Japanese launch. Here's my best guess at the moment.

Pikachu and Kirby were top tier in the original. They were downgraded to bottom tier in Melee. CF being bottom tier is perfectly possible.Bull @ CF being bottom tier, he was like 6th in melee ffs
ok, take his melee approaches, now remove dashgrab range, dash to sidesmash, dash to CC, make dash attack ****ty,and remove his fair stun or massive range advantage and make it so he takes damage if you hit his sword.Marth isnt mid tier at all.
No approaches?
Elaborate plz.
Shield camped?
Again plz elaborate.
... I have not seen a single Brawl vid in which the person playing him has come close to handling Sonic's speed. I really, really disagree with the people who put Sonic at top tier... just because he's fast as **** doesn't mean that he's one of the best characters in the game.Sonic for god tier methinks
why the heck does everyone say this... sonic is fast, yes, but so was the entire game of melee.I think we just have not had enough time to practice with Sonic, and get used to his speed.
We haven't had enough time to practice with anyone, really. I agree with the one person on the first page of this thread; We can't really make any conclusions. All I know, from what my friend said [having played brawl], is that Toon Link is pretty intense ?
that's my point... sonic is a straighforaward character... he's a fast straightforawd character... but he doen't really have any big gimicks or learning curves to get over and anyone telling yo differently is trying to sell you something.Characters like Sonic and Olimar NEED more time.
They are begging you for MOAR TIME.
Nobody has completely developed Olimar and his Pikmin or Sonic's speed.
As well as Lucario, Meta Knight, as well as Pokemon Trainer!
Poor P.T. he's 3 characters in one! He says in his dorkiest American voiceover ever, "GIVE ME MORE TIME YEAAHH!", "GO IVYSAUR, GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE"
While Marth is up and front all, "lawl ken combo to meteor smash lawl forward smash edgeguard lawl"
Brawl is too deep, or too shallow for us to tell.
Don't go that far.Well... another thing about making tiers for Brawl is that the characters are so incredibly balanced now! Any tiers that might be made are the results of pure opinion.
I think that it might even be a good idea to forget tiers for Brawl.
Wow, you put Fox at low tier? Man, from what I've played, he's still very good. IMO, he's better than the entire mid tier. I'd like to know why you think he's so bad.I've had the game since a few days after Japanese launch. Here's my best guess at the moment.
