    I think the most important thing to remember about this list is that just because a character is lower on the list, that doesn't mean they are unusable.
    Most other Smash games have an 'E' or 'F' tier for the terrible characters, but this list only goes down to 'D-' which just means the characters have big flaws which makes them hard to use.

    As much as we like to complain about steve and aegis, it's still really impressive how well balanced ultimate is even after a few years of meta development. 20 characters that are considered top teir is really good and like 60-70% of the cast is completely capable of winning big tournaments. There are just as many characters in the S and S+ tier as D tier characters. Obviously the existence of patches helped tune some characters (as well as the lack of patches after FP2 was released leading to FP2 characters being totally busted), but overall I'm content with how ultimate is.

    • @emanueltheodorus1056
      @emanueltheodorus1056 ปีที่แล้ว +21

    Just had this thought, since recovery is so important to viability, there should be a few anti-ceiling recovery moves. What I mean is moves with downward momentum you can use to cancel some upward momentum and save you from ceiling outs. A good candidate for this would be Little Mac, but also heavies like DK, KKR and Bowser.

    • @specmoment3592
      @specmoment3592 ปีที่แล้ว +4

  • @emme6907

    This is why this tier list means nothing : "Most panelists had an above average opinion of their main, with 69% being above average to 31% below average. However, only ten panelists rated their main within the character’s outlier range, and two of these were Steve mains who agreed with the majority of panelists about the character being #1. No panelists were a lower outlier on a character they actively mained, though the same could not be said for ex-mains."
    Everyone is biased, as it's impossible for a human being not to be so. We can agree on the strongest characters, but from rank A to D its absolutely biased and doesn't mean anything.

      ​​​@@tempatchtheveryweird3665 Way off. Characters who rely on frame traps and whiff punishing, technical inputs, etc, get dramatically worse because of the lack of ability to react and lag spikes messing up execution.
      Where as slower characters gain unreactable burst range which is huge as it grants them access to mixups they don't normally have.
      Also characters that force you to react to their options and maneuver around them like slow frame data characters, zoners/projectile users, become dramatically better as their unreactable range of their options increases, forcing more guesses from their opponents which they can exploit.
      The combination of these elements greatly benefits heavies and zoners who can trade much more favorable in a heavier guess based environment, and dramatically neuters technical reaction based characters who are almost always extremely lightweight who can't afford to take trades off of guessing wrong when they could normally react.
      Overall the online meta is very different from the offline meta, to the point where several pros found it caused several bad habits in offline play, and now everyone who can opts to use parsec through PC to reduce the input lag as much as possible.

    Did you know, Wyoming specializes in D tier. Isabelle is the only character in D tier that has never made top 5 in a bracket

      Because he isn't
      well.. he wasn't before this fucking new tech
      But before the new tech, Sonic was either top 1 without a doubt if it's a theorical or top 3 if it's a rentability/practical one (because of his perfect MU chart)

      Steve (even before PMLG) already had easily one of the best combo games, one of the best neutrals, some of the best frame data, the best defensive capabilities, some of the best kill confirms, some of the best kill power, one of the best recoveries, some of the best out of shield options, one of the best grounded games, one of the best aerial games, some of the best ledge trapping, some of the best edge guarding, access to exclusive Steve tech, and so much more. He was already with out a doubt the best character in the game

      They're both similar in the fact that if you play them optimally they're basically unbeatable and will make the audience fall asleep.

    As a Mac main, I noticed one thing wich probably was always obvious
    The thing is that a tier list doesn't mean much at the end of the day if you are good with a character you can likely beat anyone ass, unless its someone with experience that use a S character haha.
