>>267681862
I think they're retarded for disqualifying the heavies so early, but they're right about Sonic. His spins are amazing for approach, combos/damage-racking, and pressuring shields. I dunno about S tier, but he's up there.

Yes it is.
Remember the divides between Pika and Samus? or Fox and Kirby? or Meta Knight and Ganondorf?
My two mains are both low B rank, still gonna play them because I am having fun.

His neutral punch can stop attacks. Forward B combos into a down-tilt easily.

These are public opinion rankings based on an open poll, someone from here made the image and letter rankings however, it isn't official.
Besides, none of this matters, play who you want, Ike and Megaman aren't Dee Jay or Dan, they're legitimate choices.
>>267682395
Olimar/Palentua/WFT/Tink/Zelda bottom 5
Which is unfortunate because they're all fun, and WFT/Zelda/Palentua are all powerful doubles/FFA characters.

>>267682506
Ganon gets torn apart by projectiles, has no good approach options, his moves are unsafe and easy to punish and he relies extremely heavily on hard reads on his opponents for damage.
>>267683108
his dair is super buffed; it's basically instant. He also has mach tornado 2.0 as a custom

Why would you make S+, S, and S- instead of just having it go from S to G?

The difference between S to S- isn't the same as S to A
>>267683350
>what are win ratios
Maybe you should figure out how tiers are made instead of just assuming like a retard.
>>267683315
his dair is punishable on hit 100% of the time
making it techable makes it an unviable move against grounded foes if the player is good
it would be a large improvement if it were not techable
also custom moves are irrelevant, the falling side B is a god tier custom move though
Glad my 5 best characters are all in S or S-
Competitively viable but won't get called tierwhore since they're not in S+
>>267680594
It's WAY too early for a tier list, it's barely even been a month
Should wait 3-6 months before the first tier list is developed to give time for some sort of meta game to form
I have a question, why would I buy this game when they call a character by the name of their game and not by the actual name of the character? We don't call Luigi "Luigi's Mansion", so why do they call the Duck Hunt dog "Duck Hunt"?
That's fucking gay and I'm not buying the game. Case closed.

Why even bother?
It's hardly competitive
>>267683350
it's a fake list. The real first list won't be like that. It's impossible for 1/5 of the cast to be S tier in principle
>>267683269
His moves aren't NEARLY as unsafe anymore. F-tilt can't be punished when spaced, not to mention the reward for actually landing a hit is even higher than before. His gimps are top 5 in this game.
On a side note, I managed to land a faux Ken-combo on Marth as Zard today. Was fun.

>>267683552
Because you play as the dob and the duck you colossal faggot.
>>267683552
Duck Hunt is the best name for it because the character itself incorporates a bunch of elements from duck hunt. Nearly all of the attacks involve either the duck, the dog, or the unseen gunman (the player), so it's like playing a game of duck hunt.

Look at this fucking idiot everyone. He can't even spell the word "dog" because he's so mad. Have I literally shattered everything you stand for right before your very eyes little man?

ARE YOU THAT MUCH OF AN EMOTIONAL FUCKING TRAINWRECK THAT YOU CAN'T HANDLE THAT?
Holy fucking shit get a life, I'd give your bait a 2/10, it didn't even make me mad and then you proceed to call me a "colossal faggot" just because you can't come up with a valid rebuttal.
ALSO, TAKE NOTES EVERYBODY, THESE ARE THE KIND OF FAGGOTS WHO THINK IT'S OK TO CALL HIM "DUCK HUNT" AND WHO THINK IT'S OK TO CALL LUIGI "LUIGI'S MANSION"!

>>267680594
Gonna list off the nerfs DK received to help explain his position.
Neutral B takes longer to charge
Neutral B has less range
Neutral B has a longer recovery
Up B has a longer landing lag
Up B lost invincibility
Up B lost its 2 frame startup hitbox behind his head
Side B no longer does anything to opponents hit in the air (used to spike)
Side B no longer stalls air momentum
Down B no longer reaches far enough behind DK to punish dodgerolls on certain characters(it hits more infront now)
Down tilt range was reduced
Forward Smash has a deadzone on his chest
Uptilt has a deadzone on his chest
Fair + Dair recovery is longer than most characters' tech recovery(making the moves punishable on a hit)
Dash attack is garbage
GRAB RANGE WAS REDUCED TO 1/4 OF THE ORIGINAL SIZE
Grab down throw can't be used to tech chase
Cargo Up can't be followed up from
Back air trajectory was made worse
Buffs:
Theres a new down b in air that can be used to style
new side b improved his ledge game in a game where ledge guarding doesn't exist (outside of shiek)
Dair is faster
DK has a lot more confidence and spends more time flexing mid animations
>Regular Pitt being better than Dark Pitt
Yeah okay.
I'm not an edge fag, but gameplay wise I can't quite put my finger on it, but Dark Pitt feels way more useful.
>>267684191
>Writing a paragraph for a typo

>>267683789
everyone in 64 is still playable. only exceptions would be link/samus because of grabs and recovery. doesn't stop pikachu and kirby from being gods, but yeah.
>>267684016
Those were the very first tier lists released for each respective game, of course they're no longer relevant
>>267684313
>in a game where ledge guarding doesn't exist
This is what I hate most about smash4
Its like theres barely even a point to going after the opponent if they decide to recover low
I might as well just sit in the middle of the stage and play myself and give my opponent a courtesy minute to pick themselves up
It really kills the momentum of the game in my opinion
Like other people have said, the eventhubs tier list (which this picture is based on) is an open poll where people can vote characters up or down freely. There's no expert opinion involved, it's just what a bunch of randoms happen to think.
If you actually play the game some of the inconsistencies in the list are ridiculous. Donkey Kong isn't amazing but he's not literally bottom-of-the-barrel garbage. Certainly not worse than Ganondorf. ROB is certainly not that low and Shulk is probably not that high.
It's not completely inaccurate but people spout every new tier list as gospel anyway.
>>267684313
Up B gained 1 hit of armor throughout entire ground animation until last hit, so that Up-B "nerf" is invalidated.
The system mechanics love him, he has Mario-tier combos.
He ain't good, but he's still in that lower-mid tier alcove he's been in since forever.
>taking a party game this seriously
>>267684804
Yeah what are you supposed to do when they're just chilling on that ledge
>>267684804
Clearly you're playing the wrong character for the job then. I get easy off-stage edgeguards with Ganon, Zard, and Luigi. Edgeguarding just isn't Falco's strong point, since all his aerials are either multi-hit or upwards-launching.
>>267685113
I guess wait for them to come back up
Is it me or are shields really durable this time around?
>>267680960
No matter how dumb the tier list /v/ will fight over it without even asking for a source. It's fucking 2008 all over again.
We've already had a 500 post thread on this thing and will have more to come. God have mercy on us all.
You guys wanna continue that zelda and sheik gender argument?
>>267684849
New grounded animation is still much worse and has a lot more recovery/startup than before. His Up B is by far a worse move than it was before.
I would also disagree and say Mario has much better combos than DK. Especially more so with his grab game being as gutted as it currently is. If you could list some combos it'd be greatly appreciated
>>267684804
Being able to ledge guard is a blessing given to a select few characters. Which is annoying.
>>267685170
falco's bair/fair are god tier edge guarding moves. Fast falled fairs are guaranteed kills on most characters
How are tiers generally decided in fighting games?
Say what you will about Smogon, but their tier list for pokemon is interesting in that it's based on hard numbers: how much a particular pokemon is used on teams. This doesn't correspond to a pokemon's strength, but it's a fairly objective way to measure things.
>>267680960
Dark wesker rising
>tfw Black Pit isn't actually a Negro
why??
>>267684804
Aerial movement in Smash 4 is dog shit. It's slow, restricted and has an assload of lag on landing. I regularly see people who get knocked in the air from mid-stage, then float over and grab the fucking ledge because it's the only reasonably safe way to get back on the stage.
You almost never want to jump if your opponent is on the ground, because it gives them a huge advantage over you. This also makes it way harder to deal with projectile spammers.
>>267685385
Off of U-tilt or an unteched F-air spike or Cargo U-throw, you can get 3 or more U-airs in a row, more if your opponent doesn't double jump after.
I've also had B-air go into fast-fall U-air as well as into N-air.
Although they're not as long as Mario's they do a fair number of hits with huge damage output. Keep in mind DK can KO at ~110% with many of his kill options.
>>267680594
>DK in E
Why did you do this to me Sakurai?
>>267685485
Generally pro players each have their own tier lists based on impressions. After awhile they usually mesh into a large agreed upon list. I know in street fighter they go by hard numbers. Pic related is and old one done by matchups.

Use missiles and keep her power beam charged
Air dodge and shit
Bombs can hop you over attacks and stun others
Something something about knocking them up and spiking them with her screw attack
Dash attack a lot
Free dodges when charging if you tap in the other directionand you can fire at them
I'm the only Wario I've ever seen online, and no one seems to know that you can't attempt a smash or a dash attack when I've got a charged fart. Either the Wario Waft is WAY better now than it was in Brawl, or the playerbase is dumber. I'm hitting way to much with this shit.

>>267685485
>>267685775
I believe Smash tiers are done primarily by tournament results with some matchups involved as well.
>>267685485
Usually based on character potential; stuff like frame data, matchups, character tech, etc. The reason that they change is because often tournies or new techs increase a character's known potential or bring light to something. The real arguments come from how do you place a value on certain things, but often that is explained in matchups

>>267685702
Thats character specific. It's not guaranteed to get multiple upairs off of a cargo throw up. U-tilt does indeed lead to u-air in most scenarios but thats not exactly a "combo game". DK's current "combo game" is a complete disappointment compared to what it was in melee/brawl/pm/64. Also Up B went from being godlike to very sub pair real quick.
Heres a video example showing some of the silly stuff you could do with his up B.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-FXO43sUAc
It was possible to abuse the invincibility and just roll right up to people while untouchable. It was technically possible on every stage though much harder to pull off. Yoshi's was the easiest due to the slope. Some people claimed DK's Up B was second best Up B in brawl as a whole. Only issue is that it was attached to DK.
Now its one of his worst moves and one of the worst Up Bs in the game
I know it's fun to act superior and say "lol it's so early this tier list sucks there is no WAY that [character] could be that low" but seriously stop being idiots.
This isn't a completely new game, it's smash bros. We've played smash bros before, we know how it works. The game still has the same objective as the other ones: hit the opponent off the edge. We have enough knowledge of how smash games work, and enough pros who actually know what their talking about to create a base tier list that will develop. Obviously this isn't set in stone, but's it's definitely correct. It's just plain and simple "this character performs better in this Smash environment then this character." Maybe later there will be undiscovered techniques other characters have to help them get higher on the list, but just accept that some characters are just initially worse compared to some characters.
The roster this time around is actually looking to be really fucking interesting and fairly balanced compared to previous iterations considering how many characters are considered S (which I hole heartedly agree with, a lot of them are really good and deserve to be on top). Link being that high is awesome, and Bowser and Captain falcon being high is hype as fuck.
Also, if you're feeling down, or even emotionally defensive that your main is low tier, don't be. That means you kick ass with a low tier character. Remember, if you pick your character based on a tier list that you are a faggot. Pick your favourite character, whether is be Ganon or ZSS.
Please Jesus tell me this is a fucking joke.
Who wants mommy putting her hand on their shoulder when they're trying to play a video game? No wonder this DICKHEAD couldn't get past the first stage. AND WHAT'S THE STUPID LITTLE NIGGER DOING? JUMPING BACKWARDS IN TO THE AIR, SMALL MARIO, DIDN'T EVEN GET THE MUSHROOM, DIDN'T EVEN GET THE FIREFLOWER (or alternatively he got them, but got HIT by a GOOMBA - let me repeat that - HIT - BY A GOOMBA - HIT, BY AN ENEMY THAT SLOWLY MOVES ACROSS THE GROUND) DIDN'T EVEN GO IN THE PIPE TO TAKE THE SHORTCUT, HE'S PROBABLY GONNA FALL DOWN THAT HOLE, PROBABLY NOT GONNA GET THE STAR WHEN HE RESPAWNS, SITTING THERE "SMILING" WITH MOMMY'S HAND ON HIS SHOULDER, ACTING LIKE HE'S ALL "HAPPY" OR SOMETHING. YOU CAN LITERALLY NOT BE DOING WORSE AT THIS GAME THAN WHAT YOU SEE RIGHT THERE ON THE SCREEN. LET ME ASSURE YOU, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO SMILE ABOUT.
But you know what the worst part about it is? The part that's going to scar me and keep me awake at night for years to come?
That dumb little PRICK, ACTING LIKE HE'S PART OF THE WHOLE CHARADE. Look at him. Not a care in the world. Won't even give his OWN BROTHER a little bit of constructive criticism on how to play the game better. I guess he's the type of person who would see someone dangling off a cliff and not feel any obligation to help them up. Sitting there with a controller in his hand; as if he's doing something.
And you know what else? Why has this sorry excuse for a man, this self-proclaimed "father" of these children allowed this SCORPION WOMAN to OVERRUN THIS POOR FAMILY? THERE'S NO LEADERSHIP HERE, THAT'S THE PROBLEM! That's why SHIT LIKE THIS IS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN EVERYONE. TAKE NOTES. FUCKING MATRIARCHY BULLSHIT. THIS MAN NEEDS TO WAKE THE FUCK UP AND PUT HIS FOOT DOWN, SOCK THAT LITTLE FUCKER RIGHT IN THE FACE, GRAB THAT CONTROLLER AND SHOW HIM THIS IS HOW YOU PLAY THE GOD DAMN GAME SON, THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT. THIS IS HOW YOU SUCCEED IN THE WORLD.

Its like a few of MK's only kill moves and I SAW my sword go right through people
WHY THE FUCK IS THERE A SWORD SWING WITH NO HITBOX
>>267685113
Use a move that hits below the ledge
if you don't have one do a quick drop and backair em
>>267686870
That's one of the first signs that this list is bullshit. If 1/5 of the cast was s tier there wouldn't be an S tier
>>267686859
This
I saw how strong his forward smash was and I was thinking "oh this is probably gonna be an okay kill move"
Soon I realized Metaknight literally has to be going down on someone for that shit to hit
>>267686741
Use those aerials
jiggly's bair kos under 120%
>>267683552
You're not playing as the dog, you're playing Duck Hunt. Notice how his smash attacks are the player (you) shooting at him, that's why he freaks out. You are playing Duck Hunt.
>>267681996
Don't use the falcon punch
Justice Knee is where the style is at
it's also just a better move
>>267686964
It's like Roy. Since you can't just make the sword shorter, just remove the hitbox.
>>267686114
Yeah, I want to like Meta Knight in this game but he got nerfed way too fucking hard. Shit hitboxes and not many kill moves. He needed a nerf but not to this extent.

Would it be better if the character was called "Dog"?
>mfw trying to unlock all these customs
sma4h pls i don't want all these damn trophies
>>267687393
Rosalina is a character that's going to start strong and lose power over time as people figure her out.
Right now people are fucking retarded and dont realize how easy it actually is to constantly knock Luma off the stage
My biggest disappointment is probably megaman's placing. He needs better ground normals. His Jab, F-Tilt and N-Air being pellets really harms him, meaning his ground game relies on a bunch of moves that are either unsafe on block or have landing lag. As much as I love short hop F-Air, it's hitbox aint as big as the effect, and he doesnt have the tools to work at close range.
>>267686114
Hey Roy did come back.
>>267687581
>tfw imagining the smash announcer taking a pause before saying "DOG"
>>267680960
No they don't.
>>267680778
That's actually not how the smash community has ever done tiers, in melee fox has been #1 since the days when ken never, ever lost playing marth.

>Ness near top after all these years
We did it bros.
WHO /puff/ HERE
>>267688068
Hell yeah, but didn't stop me from kicking ass in previous games.
>>267688068
We had to sacrifice Lucas to get there
>>267688235
WORTH IT
Why is Duck Hunt so low.
He has lots of potential and set ups.
It took 15 years, but Rosalina is finally top tier!
>>267688235
Who-cas?
>>267688235
RIP In Piece...
At least we can still recreate his moveset partially with custom specials.
PK Freeze, PK Rolling Thunder (I think), PK Fire Burst, and PSI Forward Magnet.
>megaman low tier
meh
even if this tier list is true still not gonna drop my main
>>267688235
>Blonde Ness with ice magic
Still a better clone than a darker coloured Pit.
>>267688609
At least he had a much different normal moves
Why is Charizard so slow? He's only below Bowser as a heavy character, maybe even better due to great air and gimp game, not to mention a million kill moves.
>>267688572
Tiers aren't set in stone, expect some shifting over time.
Lower tier characters usually haven't been explored as thoroughly.

thanks for the games if youre out there, it was fun.
>>267688679
Because eventscrubs never tried him.
He should be B-, his spacing game is weak with N-air and D-tilt being his best pokes, but he's got enough going for him that he ought to evade bottom tier. Namely, his god-tier gimps and Flare Blitz.
>>267687069
It's actually 1/6
>>267688921
Rock smash superarmour makes it a psuedo-counter, too, and one that can hit even if you're not attacked.
>>267688814
I guess
though megaman feels mid tier to be honest
but who cares this shit doesn't affect me cause I'm not playing at high level yet
>>267688921
His jab combo is fine, it's basically Ike's.
>>267688814
If it's one character that has/is being explored, it's megaman. Stuff like olimar and luigi have a bit of hope
I'm really liking Shulk, I just wish his D-Air was a little faster. I tend to focus on Buster and Smash with monado arts.
>>267687685
I'm pretty disappointed with Megaman in general. He was the character I was most excited to play as, but I don't find him fun. I guess he just doesn't suit my playstyle, I've been having more fun as fucking DK and Ganon for chrissakes.
>>267687992
Actually Sheik was #1 for the first few years, tiers are primarily based off of matchups and character potential and for the most part they don't mean jack shit for casual play so I don't see why /v/ keeps complaining about them.
>>267688068
I'm predicting he'll start dropping back to low tier soon. Flowchart Ness' are becoming fairly common and the shitty recovery and range issues are present as ever. We've lost the Ness Stomp this time, too.

>This isn't a completely new game, it's smash bros. We've played smash bros before, we know how it works. The game still has the same objective as the other ones: hit the opponent off the edge. We have enough knowledge of how smash games work, and enough pros who actually know what their talking about to create a base tier list that will develop.
While I don't agree that this tier list is useful at all, even as a ballpark, I wish people had this mentality of understanding for starcraft 2.
People assumed that game was going to evolve as much as brood war as players learned. When infact players knew 80% of what they needed to out of beta and it got stale as fuck.
>>267689213
Would you say you're...Really enjoying it?
>>267687604
Fucking this. Every time that roulette spins I could have 50 customizations on the wheel and still somehow roll the single fucking trophy. Home menu trick be damned.
All the characters I gravitated to are in the S ranks.
>people were saying Robin wasn't good
haha niggers
Is anyone here good enough to make this list matter?
>>267689213
Monado Jump makes his recovery god-tier, sometimes worth switching to off-stage. Monado Shield is good for getting some damage on an enemy before being KO'd if Shulk is at high %. Don't really know what Monado Speed is used for.
>>267689429
Same here
Feels good
>>267688609
There were smaller differences in the specials too.
PK Thunder phased through enemies instead of hitting in a burst.
PK Fire didn't linger, just one burst back
PSI Magnet was held forward instead of centered on him
PK Freeze, obviously
>>267689429
To be fair half the fucking roster is S tier according to this list.
>TFW my main is ranked S+ but I've been playing her since melee, and before I even knew what tiers were
>TFW it's time to generate some salt
>>267689286
Probably, but for now I'm going to enjoy Ness being high tier after years of being low tier.
>>267689594
In addition to every A move bar Uair being different.
>>267680594
>Sheik & Captain Falcon back where they belong
Fuck yes, don't even need to read the rest
>>267689286
>We've lost the Ness Stomp this time, too.
It's so fucking bad. Slow, you fall a massive distance, with a super tiny hitbox.
>People who play lightning-quick agile characters and jack off all over the stage since they know they can't be punished.
>People who play camping characters, spamming projectiles from one side of the stage then running away when you get close.
>People who play keepaway to run out the clock before you can kill them, ensuring they either win the match or force it into sudden death.
>People who play Rosalina.
>The game enables and even encourages these players because approach options are so limited while defensive options are strong as fuck.
>>267682506
forward b is techable, so i don't think d-tilt is guaranteed on anything.
>>267689286
My main strategy that's been killing it lately has been to get the enemy in the air and let loose with well timed up-aerials, keeping harassment and pressure up with occasional specials and the Yoyo if in range. The backwards throw is a solid killmove, as is the baseball bat if the opportunity arises, but the up-aerial is where most of my enemies meet their end.
And dodging. Lots and lots of dodging, obviously.
If only Peach was put in S+ you'd have all four of Nintendo's biggest waifus in the same tier.
>>267689336
Holy balls. This changes a lot.
Thanks Anon.
>>267680594
Once people get better controls and can use C-sticks for aerial mobility and attacking this tier list is bound to shift. It'll shift even before then but the WiiU version gonna mix it all around.
>mfw I literally cannot do a forward jump Bair
>>267680594
I can definitely see Wii Fit Trainer being that low. Why is she so fucking shit? She feels so goddamn narrow and messy, and those 2 specials that take eons to charge.
I still think Diddy and R.O.B. should be a tad higher. Zelda too. They have so much potential. Palutena is objectively shit.
>all of my favorites are in S through B.
I mean, I wouldn't have taken too much stock in this chart anyway, but that's nice.
>>267684313
Oh god. Please tell me they'll patch him.
>>267689714
Considering she hard countered like 2/3s of Melee's roster you've been doing that for a while
>>267689921
You mean Lucina
>>267689873
Not to mention that they don't go screaming down at Mach 5 anymore. When I heard stage spiking was ramped up I got really excited for dribbling people like a basketball, but I guess I won't get that fix with Ness.
>>267689889
That's why Melee and P:M are the best Smash games.
>Ganondorf
>that low
I don't even like playing as him, but even I know he shouldn't be in the absolute worst tier.
>>267689714
>Follow up tfw my second main is in E tier (the dorf) and I don't give a flying fuck and will still play him anyway.
>>267689970
>Palutena is objectively shit
Even if you don't agree that she just has a learning curve, she has great custom moves.
>>267690135
Someone has to. And that character is Luigi.
All that matters is how big the gap is between S+ and E tier
I can see DK and Charizard being pretty low, but there's no way they're unplayable
>>267681248
Deceptive means it will only work once and never again.
>>267690313
Nah, thats Palentua. Luigi has braindead combos again, he's out of bottom tier by virtue of being too momentum-based.
>>267690007
Yeah, but now I can do it online.
>>267690185
problem is that custom moves aren't exactly anything for the sake of balance
A local scene likely won't wait for you to unlock and set up your custom moves and they're unusable online unless you're playing friends
Hence Miis not being on the list
>>267680594
>my main is S tier again
BLESS YOU SOCCER GUY
>>267685713
I remember he also said Samus was the most powerful character in the Invitational build, I'm starting to doubt that was ever true.
>>267684191
G and B are only one letter away on a QWERTY keyboard.
>>267683350
Some tier lists only go to B. It's a matter of how viable shit is. S+ has a clear advantage but S and S- have close to negligible differences in options.
The list is fake though so whatever.
>Bowser Jr and a little Sonic
>mfw 77% win rate
>tfw your main is a top threat again
>>267690959
>Bowser Jr.
Hope you've got a go-to Koopaling.
what makes peach so high tier? i played her a bit, she was okay, but i've been having much more success with Zelda, the f-air b-air are so satisfying to land
>>267691112
The best feel.
Sheik main since Melee.
>tfw shitty campus Internet and can't play online at all
>>267691229
absolutely nothing. No tourny results, no theorycraft, no anything. This list is a joke
>>267691521
>internet is great
>but wifi signal is horrendous from my bed
>>267691229
>what makes peach so high tier?
The same reason as anything else on this list, it's all pulled from someone's ass.
You need months and months of tournament play to even get a decent idea of what the tier list will eventually evolve into.
And even then it's never going to mean anything for playing online against pugs.
Are custom moves tourney viable?
>>267689889
What happens when these sort of characters fight each other? Seems to me like you need to learn more characters or go back to >melee
How the fuck do these people decide tiers? Why are there three S tiers instead of one per letter? S tier should be one tier for the safest characters with little to no bad matchups.
>>267691673
They're what shifts DK from bottom tier to high tier
>>267691673
Depends on the tourney.
I'm waiting for the Wii U version so I have yet to play Smash 4.
Can anyone tell me how similar it is to Brawl? And be detailed.
>>267691673
in consideration
>>267680594
>My two mains, Samus and Link, are both mid-tier now
FUCK
YES
>>267689347
Exactly. This isn't a new game, it's the same game we've played for years but a little different. When professional players and such have been playing other smash games for years, you think they would probably know what works and what doesn't.
>>267691756
Faster paced but not quite at Melee's level.
>>267680849
>inciting flame wars
>being le ebin trole
lol
>>267691152
Why would i pick one of those circus clowns when i can be the prince of all Koopas?
>>267691756
The pace of the game and how much the game rewards defensive or offensive play depends a lot on the characters being played. Sheik, Captain falcon, and a few others invoke very melee-like pace and gameplay, while Rosalina, Robin, etc. are more brawl-like. But it's never as slow and defensive as brawl and never as hyperactive and offensive as melee. Unless it's diddy ditto, then it's both as once.
Why is my main all the way at the bottom...I win quite a bit
>>267688572
never drop a character because of a tier list. That's what faggots do. Play who you want.
>>267682308
>tfw you image search "neo /v/" and get nothing but pictures of phones.
>>267692103

Diddy is a fucking nightmare.
>>267691112
>>267680594
>Sheik, Peach, Fox, Marth, and Captain Falcon are all S tier again
>Falco is B tier
