I once hated Smash Bros. tiers...but I find them interesting to look at now. I mean...IDC for them but...uhhh...yeah. I will say I love seeing my lovely Marth one rank up. :3

Personally, it all depends on the player playing in terms of skill. You can be a goddess with one character but suck horrible with another.

That is correct. I personally do best with middle tier characters.
 
well it is a fighting game, they are competitive games, so naturally there are tier lists.

although i havent played melee in ages.
 
I like to looks at the tiers, just to see (and it just so happens that KIRBY SUCKS IN MELEE, arg), but I don't really listen to them that much.
 
Tiers only matter at very high level, so.
Though there is no need to be a genius to see characters like Bowser, Pichu, Mewtwo are just so bad.
 
Even so, any person can rock any character. I'm actually not that bad with Pichu.

It's not that you are good or bad at Pichu, it's that Pichu is an awful character. I mean, hurting itself when attacking? That's pathetic! And we all know his addition was purely made to promote Gold and Silver!
 
I dunno I destroy the level 9 CPUs with any character but the level 9 CPUs are so pathetic they're entertaining anyway
 
Why is Mario below Luigi? Luigi has little combo potential and his recovery just stinks. But, he has superior aerials and his attacks are generally stronger. I agree that Dr. Mario is better than both of them. Oh well, they're right next to each other.

Meh, I use Kirby, and I know he's a bad character. He feels really stiff and many of his attacks connect poorly. Plus, he's easy to get killed.
 
personally i think his recovery is fine.

side special and up special seems to work or just charge side special.

lol

Um, yes it does. Luigi's recovery is predictable and it's either you go straight up or straight to the left and right.
 
There are too much situations where both of Luigi's recoveries are required and it usually fails
 
so im guessing the whole "use down special to recover" wasn't really there in melee.

I remember using it in brawl a lot but not the other two.
 
It wasn't as effective in Melee.

In Melee, you can gain vertical momentum with vb, but the lag when the animation is finished really makes it unreliable.
