This is the first tier list released by the Smash 4 Back Room. It is based on votes from 53 high-level players, most of them Back Room members. In accordance with the most common tournament rules, custom special moves were not taken into account, with Mii Fighters presumed to be restricted to their default movesets.

The tiers in this list are split into groups; Top (S), High (A,B), Middle (C,D,E), Low (F,G), and Bottom (H,I,J).

Many notable members of the Smash 4 community (including ZeRo, who abstained from voting), thought that this tier list was created too early. This was partly due to the fact that patch 1.1.4 was only two days away from being released, with the imminent inclusion of Bayonetta, Corrin, and balance changes. Later, on March 15th, another patch would be released, with even more balance changes.

A follow up article was released on February 16, 2016, offering further explanation on the tiering procedure as well as insight
