Later on, Ness results would be very stagnant since many of his players had been significantly inactive than ever before in such a long time (Specifically after [[EVO 2016]] to [[2GGT: ZeRo Saga]]). Despite again gaining results on Winter 2016 and 2017, most noticeably FOW's 17th placement in [[2GGT: ZeRo Saga]] and S1's 5th placement in [[B.E.A.S.T 7]], it didn't compensate the loss of his stagnant results he had suffered from mid to late 2016. Some of his previously not so troublesome matchups such as {{SSB4|Marth}} and {{SSB4|Lucina}} would also gain a large spike in popularity, and prove to now be worrisome matchups for Ness. This resulted in a much larger tier drop to 24th on the third and current tier list, this drop being tied with {{SSB4|Pac-Man}} for the largest between the second and third tier lists. | Later on, Ness results would be very stagnant since many of his players had been significantly inactive than ever before in such a long time (Specifically after [[EVO 2016]] to [[2GGT: ZeRo Saga]]).

Ness' ranking on the tier list became fair topic of debate, as recently, Ness has had commendable results such as FOW briefly coming out of retirement to place 13th at 2GGC: Nairo Saga and 25th at 2GGC: Civil War respectively, while NAKAT placed 3rd at [[Smash Factor 6]], 13th at EVO 2017, 17th at [[GameTyrant Expo 2017]], 17th at [[2GGC: FE Saga]], and 33rd at [[GENESIS 4]] while mostly using Ness, The Great Gonzales placed 5th at Royal Flush and 17th at Smash 'N' Splash 3 respectively and, most recently, a Japanese Ness player, Gackt, placed 17th at [[The Big House 7]], claiming wins against {{Sm|ANTi}}, {{Sm|Locus}}, and {{Sm|Mistake}} (although lost to {{Sm|Raito}} by 2-3). Regardless, Nness dropped once again on the fourth and current tier list, at 28th, now sharing the spot with {{SSB4|Lucas}}, though due to the expansion of the tiers, he is now considered a high tier character rather than a mid tier character. To this day, Ness' tier placement remains a large topic of debate, nonetheless. | |||
