 ===Tier placement and history===
-Like in ''Brawl'', Olimar's placing in ''SSB4'' was one of the most contentious among the cast. At first, players would deem his nerfs as being too harsh for him to even be assessed as a mid-tier character, with some even considering him to be a bottom-tier character. This was primarily due to the game mechanics in ''SSB4'' being faster mixed with Olimar’s camping game being toned down, and his strengths not being recognized as much. This perception would remain intact for several months until players soon started to demonstrate Olimar's retained strengths, with professionals like {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|ImHip}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, and {{Sm|Soulimar}} placing highly. As a result, Olimar was ranked 24th on the first [[tier list]].
+Like in ''Brawl'', Olimar's placing in ''SSB4'' was one of the most contentious among the cast. At first, players would deem his nerfs as being too harsh for him to even be assessed as a mid-tier character, with some even considering him to be a bottom-tier character. This was primarily due to ''SSB4''{{'}}s adjusted and quicker mechanics combined with Olimar’s camping game being toned down, and his strengths being unrecognized at the time. This perception would remain intact for several months until players soon started to demonstrate Olimar's retained strengths, with professionals like {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|ImHip}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, and {{Sm|Soulimar}} attaining high placings. As a result, Olimar was ranked 24th on the first [[tier list]].
+Although his competitive prospects and placings were accelerating, Olimar's rare usage negatively stood out compared with other high-tier characters. To reflect this, he dropped 30th on the second tier list. As before, representatives such as Dabuz and Shuton continued to defeat top players at high-level tournaments and achieve great placings. These demonstrations allowed Olimar to achieve 27th and then to 21st on the third and fourth tier lists respectively. Although he was not dominating as he was in ''Brawl'', Olimar has nevertheless managed to achieve solid success despite the quicker mechanics and the dominance of the DLC characters, especially {{SSB4|Corrin}} and {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}.
