      In turn, though, it takes skill to use it. Far more skill than Melee Puff's Bair anyway.

    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 Год назад +21

    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."

    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.
