I don't even understand why ZSS doesn't have a spot in the jab list: it comes out on frame 1, and interrupts EVERYTHING. Also think she deserves a spot on the u-tilt list for her wicked fast up tilt, probably lower on that list then the jab list though.

Also: the bair list - Really? Toon Link isn't on that list? REALLY?

Sonic's dthrow really isn't any good, at all. You can DI down (which is easy, since it takes a while before you move) and immediately tech. Then, you can grab or anything that comes out faster than a grab on Sonic, and he can't even do anything!
Falco's dash attack should be in the top 10, definitely, because of its speed, range, duration, and, more importantly, it can be canceled into Usmash on contact, called a Gatling Combo. The Gatling Combo is inescapable below about 60%. Another effect of this is that it's immensely useful against shielders who think they can punish Falco's dash attack with a shield-dropped attack, or shield grab. The moment they drop the shield, the Usmash hits.
For bair, Marth needs to get replaced by Toon Link.
Also, Falco's fair is the worst.

Falco's f-air is definetly the worst. (Fox's b-air for worst IMO)
Link's Z-air can pretty safely be considered #1. It's his ultimate spacing tool and can be used to edgehog (let go of ledge, press z twice(grabs and pulls up to ledge), repeat as needed for invulnerability frames)
I really like diddy/marth's d-air for #10 (maybe #9?) Really good gimpability, wide range, strong spike opportunity, good for edgeguarding.
Marth's f-smash!!! Tip = TEH PAIN. Not as good as melee but still very strong, good range, spammable.

Diddy's f-tilt. good knockback/damage, HUGE RANGE, has more range than marth's f-smash, like wat-da-fock.

(Sorry for being totally in favor of my mains, I just know them best compared to the other characters.)

Zelda's u-air, b-air, and f-airs are amazing if you can hit with them, able to ko light-medium weight characters at around 60-70 (even 50's if you close the blast zones). They should defidently be on this list, but maybe low around 8 or 9 because they can be tricky to land.

The worst d-spec I think is mario's, the only use I can think of is to hit lucas/ness when recovering with pk thunder.

Kirby's n-special is great, I love using it to copy character's specs like CF, Ivysaur, Pit, ect. Its also good for kirbysides and spitting them out under the stage for a ko.

It's 2am, I'm tired, and that's all I can think of for now. I'll be back when I'm....awake
