Nah. It wasn’t close. Tails had incredible burst mobility, disjoints on all of his tails for some reason, a great recovery, easy stage control and an excellent anti-shield game. 1.0.3 release Tails was so broken it’s unreal, if they didn’t nerf the Robot, it 100% would have gotten banned. It was unblockable in the first release and near impossible to challenge for most of the cast.

If Tails was in Ultimate, supposing that he isn't a copy of Sonic, this would be my idea for a moveset. Neutral A - Punch Side A - Roll Down A - Tail Twirl (Sonic Adventure) Up A - Uppercut with his tails Neutral B - Cancel Move (Sonic Adventure) (Useful for Combos) Down B - Spindash Side B - Ring Dummy (Sonic 06) Up B - Flying (Classic-style) Down Smash - Stomp Side Smash - Bomb Toss Up Smash - Spinning Tails (Sonic Up Smash, but he uses his tails) Final Smash - Tornado Up Taunt - Sitting down using the translator from Colors Down Taunt - Yawning (Sonic 2) Side Taunt - Twirls quickly and then gets dizzy (for funsies)
Yea, the smart fox dominating the game but Nintendo refusing to add the character has playable by instead, a Freaking mii costume thanks for nothing from Sega does that Nintendon't
It’s funny you mentioned Lloyd here because the correct answer to this question is actually pre-1.0.3 Beta Lloyd. That version of Lloyd remains (as far as I know) the only character who actually had rules limiting usage of the character because the sword switching mechanic caused the game to lag due to using more processing power. As such, there was a rule introduced as part of the lag clause - “Lloyd’s Llag Clause” which basically meant that if the game was lagging and one of the players was using Lloyd, that player could then be forced to switch off Lloyd. This effectively served as a ban for the character because there was no appetite to play a character that you could be forced off using during a tournament - so Lloyd was basically the only character to get any form of universal tournament ban.
@@Creepo_J That was a separate matter but yeah, that fell under the infinites rule. I’m also pretty sure you couldn’t really ever convert a kill off that because it never had a finisher
I don't know how you missed the fact that Tails' old down taunt removed up and down keys from working. All you had to do was toss someone off, and they were done.
I love how a guy who is a hybrid of many powerful things that has an ability to make him stronger with a very powerful blade is weak against a lil fox guy
ruclips.net/video/mTN-cfnuOqg/видео.html&ab_channel=TheLabCreatives heres one thats especially showcase, chaos0 is cracked at tails but also he was so quick and nimble as a character back then
I downloaded SSF2 because I wanted Tails in Smash and this was the best I could do so seeing him in S tier was really cool Unfortunately he got nerfed so bad that now he's like an F or D tier character now
Never played this game online, only locally with my friends on the same keyboard or pluging different keyboards into the computer. Despite only playing with my friends, I realized Tails' potential before they did, especially since a falling air attacks gave you a slight speed boost😂
1.0 Goku and Fox were tricky because 1.0 had such a short lifespan competitively. I do know that almost every Goku player dropped him during the initial release because they didn’t want to get seen as carried, but considering that Goku crashed into low/bottom tier despite only receiving a few minor nerfs, there’s a good chance that people were overestimating how good Kaioken was (i.e. being just as good as it was in 9b when it wasn’t) and interpreting it as Goku being busted in both forms Fox though? Probably would’ve been #1 but I don’t think it reached Tails level. 1.0.3 Tails (which debuted the Tails rework) was so busted that Tails’ Up-B was actually completely unblockable.
@@MedhaosFEH True true, though I'm guessing nowadays Kaio-Ken is still pretty damn good. 2nd fastest character in the game, ungodly strong, a chaingrab infinite, great horizontal recovery and decent vertical recovery (if you detransform after Kaio-Ken up B, you'll cancel out of special fall), and finally some of the best overall mobility in the game. If we had to rank Kaio-Ken, I'd place him at a solid A-. As for Base Goku, I'm giving his a C+/B-
@@vibemasterkorosu2469 As a character, Kaioken has to be good by design considering a single use of Kaioken without attacking to extend the uptime deals 22% self damage. It’s very much a “all or nothing” deal
As one who mailed tails and ichigo I had no idea those 2 were THAT broken. I last played that game in 2014 I'm surprised it's still going let alone have a competitive scene.

I remember those days, good lord I feel old remembering high school. I remember I mained bowser and thought his down air up throw chain loop was broken back then lmao
I remember maining tails when i played in elementary school, and even before his resprite and new moveset, he was still op. He could keep anyone in a spikelock with his down-air on stage, and his smash attacks were way stronger
You know, it's funny looking back at this and seeing how tails went from one of the most broken characters in the game, if not the most broken, to literally lower then an asswipe in the tier list.
Let’s all just take a second to remember it actually depends on the players skills. I am a meta knight main because he looks cool and he was easy to handle on the computer and switch when playing smash, however when I tried playing in smash Bros I was wrecked. I got further direct leave it when I was playing Pokémon trainer. I have only played brawl place, once on the last day of school (I probably would’ve played it more had I not been sick because of Covid during the finals and only discovered it after my time right out, which I’m pretty sure me having covid was a bit of the reason as to why I was much more distracted than I normally would be during a final) And recently with student of a quarter of this year. One of my friends who actually is a streamer manage to get student of the quarter as well. He Walsh have a better time playing as the Pokémon trainer
Tails literally had superman command grab before Multiversus came out lmao
