Official MBR Tier List

[Zephynazo]

That's cuz Zelda is gay.

 

[KirbyKaze]

In all seriousness I think Falco is 2nd best. Shine is so broken lolz even if he got the slightly less ridiculous one.

 

[LumpyCPU...]

What's with people saying "look at mango and hbox doing so well in tournies, puff MUST be higher" and then knocking down falco despite chops, shiz, mango, peepee, and zhu's dominance.

don't get it twisted. i don't think any one player's performance should determine how good the character is. i honestly believe puff is a better character than falcon and peach by a noticeable amount.
when looking at who's "dominating" the smash scene, i don't see any sheiks other than tope and i don't see tope winning pound 4. that doesn't stop me from saying sheik is a top tier character. looking at who's doing well lately at big tourneys would have me say falcon's one of the best characters in the game and we all know that's not even close to accurate. (sorry falcon, i still love you bro)

edit: i think all the top tier characters are really close together. the only placement i'd say i'm really sure about is fox being the best. he's too perfect, imo.

I also put falco at 2nd best. not so much merit put on the shine so much the ability to control the stage/opponent with lasers/priority. if fox had falco's priority, no one would play this game.

 

[`Jammin' Jobus]

[INSANE CARZY GUY]

lol at kirby above m2 and pichu, puff below dr.mario, link at top of low.

But I argee with pichu up and yoshi above ness

 

[JPOBS]

lmfao in retrospect the old tierlis tis garbage.

this one is looking to be that way pretty soon as well. I dont see why you would an arbitray title like "final tier list" on this thread when the game is still going strong over a year years later.

 

[INSANE CARZY GUY]

THe same reason why dishes cry. take your answer to that and figure it out. But it should change

 

[KAOSTAR]

I also put falco at 2nd best. not so much merit put on the shine so much the ability to control the stage/opponent with lasers/priority. if fox had falco's priority, no one would play this game.

I would just main fox

exactly why we shouldn't say "final tier list"

 

[S l o X]

You guys do realize he just copy pasta'd the 2006 tier list? So arguing over a tier list made over 2 years ago is quite dumb. (:
-
Just update the tier list every 4~7 months. I don't see that being a problem....there really isn't a FINAL tier list.

 

[betterthanbonds9]

Tier list of smartness and resulting character wins (ie: people could argue Pichu needs the smartest player, but either way, Pichu should lose in high quality play no matter who uses him)
1. Falco
2. Jiggs
3. Falcon
4. Fox
5. Peach
6. Sheik
7-26 everyone else

 

[Signia]

The more options a character covers at once, the less you have to think. Also, when a character has safe moves or when you can do things without having to consider the risk or weigh your other options you don't have to think too much either. When matchups don't differ too much you don't have to be too smart either, when you learn one matchup for some characters you just do the same for their weight class/fall speed or whatever.

Falco doesn't require the MOST thought.. if anything he'd be in the lower half of such a list. His matchups differ less than most due the fact that when he's in control, you play pretty much the same way, with lasers and shield pressuring and eventually combos.

Sheik's got a big shield so she doesn't have to think about shield stabs too often, her large grab range, the followups to her grabs, and her long-lasting aerials usually mean you don't have to think about timing them as much.

Peach can mindlessly Dsmash at times and get big damage..

 

[INSANE CARZY GUY]

yeah ness should be high on your list dude what can he do on the ground other than dash attack? BUt I argee with signia you don't even have to be creative with some of the people.

 

[otg]

If anything Jiggs requires the least amount of thought. Bair bair bair bair bair, oh they misspaced really badly or attacked my shield -> rest.

 

[LAX_]

lol tier list for smartness is a dumb idea

 

[betterthanbonds9]

yeah ness should be high on your list dude what can he do on the ground other than dash attack? BUt I argee with signia you don't even have to be creative with some of the people.

Ness doesn't win much; you have to be smart AND win, otherwise the low tiers would be at the top and it's not like this list is either quantifiable or serious; it's just for fun

I find falco players to be the ones that are most constantly throwing out moves in order to judge how people react and with the number of approaches he has and all the possible DI's from his combos that he needs to cover. I think that takes intellect.

Jiggs players need to play the game of dont get touched more than anyone, not to mention the absolute need to attack any opening because you aren't going to be comboing people if they are past 40%

Falcon is the same as falco imo, it's just that I find Falcons lose more <_<.
--in the real tier list and in my make believe stupid fun one, Falcon always has issues with where he is

Fox can cover so many options with just nair shine wd away...

Peach, has to play the same dont get touched game as jiggs, but peach just seems less movingl because of less air mobility

Sheik is all about techchasing and combos out of ftilt, throws, w/e. Pretty mindless compared to the others, except in recovery.

Edit:

lol tier list for smartness is a dumb idea

shhh

 

[KirbyKaze]

Ness is horrible.

 

[INSANE CARZY GUY]

yeah that's the point what's he going to do? If your going to say amount of mental effort I play as a lot of people.

I only think hmm I should rest this guy when i'm jigglypuff

As falco laser to attack

falcon be hard to predict and have good movement

fox- be hard to predict and get combo moves

sheik lol just get a grab or attack that works

kirby i'm going to kill myself

ice climber- study their projectilt game it really messs them up, keep nana, try to find a way to grab or de-synce and how should I edge gaurd and keep moving. They are pretty hard mentally

Pichu- what are they doing I must know, keep moving avoid attacks and punish if you can, mix up movement speed and approach 3 different ones each, how should I recover there are mmany ways and you mst be unpredictable, know when to randomlly change side-B, and a hundred different tools and ideas I have to mess with people.

Really I think the most as pichu and not a thought goes through my head when using jigglypuff. I do odd movements sometimes but really I don't think

Any character is just as hard mentality with the amount of mix-ups you need to do in order to beat the opponent. What you said for Pichu is exactly the same for any player/character, the tools are just different, though Pichu has close to no tools in order to beat a good character.

Un-pokeable shield and double jump cancels are too good son.

Looking at the fact you're a Brawl Peach player, your custom title and the fact you're completely not biased in the slightest-

Never mind.

Yep, Peach is the best ever.
