THE LIST ON HERE IS THE TIER LIST. PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE IT. 21:21, 21 July 2006 (GMT)69.229.17.191 21:21, 21 July 2006 (GMT)Typh.

Where did this SSB tier list come from? There is no citation. Please provide a link. --nealdt 06:07, August 3, 2006 (GMT)

The best I can do for a citation is a link to a topic that cited it. But if you ask any really competitive SSB player (Isai, moogle, dark link, etc.) I guarantee you they'll agree. --ycz12

I was thinking about going in and replacing the pictures for the characters myself. I got photoshop, so don't worry about the quality. But I got one question: Should the picture be a closeup of their face and upper body? Or just sort of a body shot doing some sort of trademark technique? My vote goes to a body shot.

Somebody set up us the bomb.

"There is no "official" tier list". Of course not, tier lists are always fan made. Should we remove this? – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 20:48, January 23, 2007 (GMT)

That would seem appropriate, because this is heavily opinion based. --Dinoshaur 08:16, August 22, 2007 (EDT)

Wrong. It is part of Professional play, and is made by the number of combos each player can do. It isn't opinionated.

Thedude3445 2:06 PM, December 27, 2007 (EST)

Professionals only use Fox, they use no items and they only play on Final Destination. It is indeed opinionated.

Stupid fad is stupid. And please sign your comments, Desuman. NeonCrusader 16:29, February 20, 2008 (EST)

Untrue. The tier list is not holy, but it is fairly accurate. A lot of the people who post here are amateurs, but some are professionals or researchers. I believe it is fairly likely that the tier list should be more or less considered official.

That depends on how you see official, sir. According to my sources most take official things as something the developers of the game has said, and not fanbased material. That could mean that the tier list is not official. Though Nintendo never seems to ever release any tier list you can go ahead and say; Yes, it is official. I hope my opinion was good enough for you. This was an automatic message by AICM 411.

Center

I don't really like the centering. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 18:22, February 20, 2007 (GMT)

Neither do I. Methinks we should put the tier lists together on the right and left-align the text. – MaskedMarth ^{(t c)} 14:23, March 12, 2007 (GMT)

Aww.. I quite like the centring. D=

I'll make the text better. if you don't like that you can change it back. -User:Pyoro T/sig

Section about tier arguments?

I think that would be a good idea for this article. This is one of the most viewed articles on SmashWiki and I thought it would be nice to beef it up a little. – MaskedMarth ^{(t c)} 19:24, April 4, 2007 (GMT)

Mmm... beef... oh, yeah, good idea. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 19:31, April 4, 2007 (GMT)

Hmm, I guess it's okay. Anyways, if this page isn't already, it should only be editable by mods, or special privalegded/trusted SWF members. And another thing, what to do with the top when Brawl is out, and we're doing the Brawl tiers=??? Well, I guess we'll just wait until it happens, but be prepared for possible changes to this page then. Johnknight1 16:20, October 9, 2007 (PCT)

Stupid vandals.

Changing it back now... -_- NeonCrusader 22:42, August 10, 2007 (EDT)

Would there be anyway to protect this page? (IIRC, then only Admins could make edits; that would solve most of the vandalism problem) NeonCrusader 15:49, October 31, 2007 (EDT)

Thanks. Hate to sound ungrateful, but it took long enough >_> NeonCrusader 21:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Ness rocks man,

Wait a sec...

Samus is at the bottom of the original tier list? I thought Link was the worst character in the original Smash. Teamrocketspy621 20:02, October 12, 2007 (EDT)

In Brawl?

How long do you think it will be until Brawl has an official tier list? And will there be agreements on the status of certain Brawl stages for tournament play? Currently, all Brawl stages say "??" for their tournament status. Dogman15 00:03, February 17, 2008 (EST)

It'll take a while. Don't attempt to put anything up regarding it as of yet. NeonCrusader 16:38, February 18, 2008 (EST)

Yeah, it'll definitely be a while. A long while. Llamalord 22:12, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

It's entirely too early to tell. The game's going to need to be out longer. It's not even released in the US officially yet, let alone any other places short of Japan. Players would have to get a feel for each character and trends would have to be seen before talks about tier lists could really start. -- Ph00kedup 18:44, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I've checked the Tier list page and there's still no Brawl tier list. Fox should be top tier again, followed by Falco then Lucario. -- FoxMcCloud251 20:06, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Just be patient. I'm sure the SBR will bring out a list sometime this summer or later this year. --Sky (t · c · w) 21:56, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

GameFAQs topic and XiF's essay

As the pages in the title no longer exist, does anyone have an archived copy of either? Stupid GameFAQs not implementing the archive sooner. We also might as well remove the link for now because it's broken. -Capefeather 21:09, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

I found this thread from 2007 that has the alleged current SSB tier list. The weird thing is that Samus and Link are switched. Which tier list is the right one? -Capefeather 17:42, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

The Tier List on this website is right. Link is bottom tier and Samus is above Link. -FoxMcCloud251 20:13, 19 March 2008

Tier list for Brawl

Obviously the tier list for Brawl will change signifigantly. All of the upper tier characters have received big hits, Peach getting hit the worst. By contrast, some of the lower tiers got better. Bowser will be at least middle tier now, Pikachu has one of the best FS's, Game and Watch is heavier (a bit), etc. Something to the effect that the current list will drastically change would be a nice addition, with also the FACT(It is, no denying) that MetaKnight, Pit, and Wolf will be contenders for the top (With Dedede, and Lucario following). I have no account, so, no sig...71.170.166.146 05:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

One wonders if FSs will be allowed in tournies. That could change the tier list significantly based on tourny rules. --Sky (t · c · w) 01:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

What is the correct pronunciation?

I think that its "TIE-er," but other peolpe say "TEAR." which is it? by correct, i mean official. Pokemoneinstein 21:55, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

It's pronounced like tear. Cheetacuz007 22:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

You've never heard someone refer to wedding cake's tiers? - Gargomon251 01:32, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Clarification?

Should it be said that the general consensus is that SSB is fairly balanced between tiers (small difference) while SSBM was more unbalance (high difference)?

Also I don't think this should be in the article: Also, tiers suck and they are retarted. all of them should be deleted and forgotten about. And the person who created tiers should go die in a fire. Mr. Game and watch shouldn't be on the bottom tier for SSBM anyway. He pwns and should be in the top tier. TIERS SUCK.

I believe that tiers are used to show the extents of characters' abilities or the skills they can preform within the game. All, more or less, are very debatable because of their generalality. Besides that, true skill comes from the gamers who used their wits and mastery of their character(s) to win the match/game. --Question Jack 23:27, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I got rid of it. MegaMario9910

"Tiers don't exist" may be true.

"Tiers don't exist". Probably they do. Probably they don't. Is every player good with Ness? Or with Mr. G&W? Or with Falco or Fox? Everyone has their own tier list. THEY MAKE THEIR OWN TIER LIST. --Willneverbeapro 03:19, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
