I think some accounts got permanantly deleted along with all their posts or sumthing like that.

And yeah, i agree with Rich Wheeler, it has been obvious that there has been metagame changes since the last tier list, and there is potential to expand. I would be quite dissapointed knowing that this is the final tier list

why would there be a 'final' tier list if the metagame is still changing? especially with mango now ****** *** with puff and ppl like hungrybox also winning with puff. i feel like it still should be subject to change.

So flaco, puff, and falcon should move up.
No.
How should Falco move up? He's clearly worse than all of Fox/Sheik/Marth.
And both Falcon and Puff are on the right position.

Even though all of them (aside from Falco) might have improved they still aren't better than any of the characters above them.

This list seems somewhat flawed to me now. for the most part it's accurate though but I think some characters should be moved from high to top and from middle to high. I do agree with what's been said alot already. There shouldn't be a final tier list because alot of the middle-bottom Characters are still developing mainly because they are not played as much do to there rank. However looking at what Taj has done with Mewtwo I'm willing to bet all other characters(Except maybe 2) Can still be improved if they are explored more by other people.

I think that Pichu really has some potential.
Most people talk about him hurting himself, but it's not with every attack.
There are actually really good attacks that don't harm him, and they can combo.

Pichu is the most hated character because almost nobody wants to try to use him.

Compared with Pikachu, Pichu is a tad more nimble and a little more difficult to hit. Those are the only two advantages, however, and since Pichu damages itself when it uses electrical attacks, it's best suited for handicapped matches.

Pichu is the lightest character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and it's top of the class in weakness, too! For Pichu, it's all about scampering here and there to pick up items that will help it survive.

His only good move is nair. The rest of them have low priority and low range. and if his projectiles hurt him, it leaves him with little to work with. He is easily out classed by Top, High, and most of mid tier.

One percent damage for his projectile, right?
And uthrow can chaingrab.
Not to mention you could follow up uthrow with a usmash.
And, if you're quick enough, wouldn't you be able to follow that up with SHFFL'd nairs?
Only thing really holding him back is grab range, but what about jc grab?

Uair is also an okay move, but then again, I'm not sure what to say of it.
It's simply alright.

Aww skip it, it's near useless defending this guy.
All the points you make, every other character pretty much has better options than pichu
that's why pichu is ranked so low

Do you think pichu is better than kirby? than mewtwo? than bowser?
for pichu not to be ranked last he has to be better than someone


Also, if i'm not mistaken, this is just tournament results.

turn around....
At least kirby can get the occasional cheap kill, pichu has nothing going for him
Up throw chaingrab (like 20% to death) on spacies.
Down throw to down smash off ledge with neutral air edge guard.

Just saying, it's not like he has nothing.

cool, so he has a decent 'combo' on two characters on one stage

these analyses are from the game itself (trophies)

pichu was clearly never meant to be a decent character, and it shows

Well, two of the best characters, plus it's not all that situational.
And the second is almost universal, works on more than spacies. I was just listing examples to show that he does in fact have moves to show--moves that don't hurt him at that.
I can list a whole bunch of neat combos and stuff about Pichu. Don't get me wrong, I'm not denying or arguing his placement (which I concur is well deserved), But he doesn't have absolutely nothing going for him.

anyone who says he has 'absolutely nothing' going for him is clearly exaggerating, but he has less going for him than any character in the game except possibly kirby
