C. Falcon should be top tier for this. There's no other character who can say "show me ya moves" with that ambiguosly sexual moveset.

Falcon and Pichu have TWO taunts!

I love wave-switching Falcon's taunts whenever I get a ceiling kill. (face left, face right, repeat)


Marth is high. He says "Hey, everyone, look at me!" That is totally something I would say if I were in Smash.



Young Link is Mindgamezorz tier because he can cancel his taunt by catching his boomerang.

Mario is low, freakin taunt makes you a big target and too long.

Other things to consider that taunting can be expanded to more than just up on the D-pad to include things like
Bucket dancing with G&W and Flag waving
Singing or resting with Jiggs
Moonwalking with Falcon
IC taunt Desynchs

just things to consider

ICs' taunt when done normally is nothing special, but there are so many amusing ways of using it via desynching and whatnot that I love it anyways.

SS taunting against lambchops in between tech chases was the best. After death, desync Wobbles cross taunt is legit
