So Far: Best 5/Worst 5

[Andarvi]

What do we think. Its hard for me to judge without biased so I wont try to, but ill say:

Top 5:

Dedede
Metaknight
Wolf
Pit
Ill put Wario here just for shits and giggles and because his final smash is awesome.

Bottom 5:
Yoshi that asshole
Samus is pretty shitty from what I can tell
Diddy I find terrible
Donkey Kong the usually shitness
?

[izembo]

why does everyone love dedede so much? i'm not a competitive player in the least but i really hate him :l

I personally dont use or like him very much but I have been owned by him on more than one occasion, plus all the hype, so ill put him here.

[Arvin]

dedede is the fuckin man enough said

[Zarath]

Depends on the play style though, I can see Dedede as being good but I'm not much of a slow hard hitter, I can't use him at all however. I find that brawl is that the devs put great lengths at balancing out just about everyone (except an odd one here and there)

[BRP]

I'm undecided as of yet. But I'm thinking the shitty range on most of Captain Falcon/Ganondorfs aerial attacks will put them in worst. Sucks too, since Ganondorfs stomp is fucking awesome.

[Metah]

Its really hard for me to categorize it, especially since we don't know the full extent of everyone's powers. That said, R.O.B. is definately my favourite and most used character. Donkey Kong and Yoshi are still shitty as per usual.

[Kaliden]

Ike
Ness (a charged yo-yo can equal a win or loss)
Lucas
Meta Knight
Zelda/Sheik

(people who don't necessarily suck, but I hate fighting them/playing as them)

Yoshi
Donkey Kong
Samus (Her FS automatically pulls you in even if you aren't in the beam)
Fox (again, great character but his FS annoys me)
Jigglypuff........

[Ryko]

I dont think you're going to be able to tier it this early since at the moment the top tier tactics involve defensive retaliation and that works for everyone. Diddy is actually a solid character with multiple killshots and fast setups/good priority. That said dedede is a monster. My personal top 5 are Ike, Link (who I cant use online at all), Dedede, Diddy, and Pit.

Ike? really? I mean hes strong but so damn slow, how do you personally use him well?

And why cant you use Link online?

You like Diddy, huh? I can see potential I guess but I find his jump to be terrible.

[Vandole]

my top so far:
fox
diddy
ike
toon link

my lowest:
bowser
king dedede
link



thats all ive really fooled with.

With link offline I'm generally doing 4 things at once, and it's too easy to get a slight lag on a match so your upwards boomerang throw suddenly turns into an arbitrary spin attack, it's kind of annoying. If there's no lag, like early morning, then I can use him. With ike, it took me weeks to learn things to make him faster. His neutral air and forward air have great range for entering with an attack, they lead into his punch punch kick combo well. Grabs are a good way to space people into the moves that you dont use normally a lot, generally that's a good lead into his front smash since it has such a large startup. Hyphen smashing his up smash gives you a sliding lead into the 180 swing. Short hop reverse arial his back air to get a strong quick lead into someone. A fast ike is in love with his back air, my real weakness at the moment is that I dont tilt enough, otherwise I'm pretty quick (quicker than even my last taped matches [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQRyDQ--jQk] so I'll probably put some up again this friday).

[Ryushii]

What's with the hate on Yoshi? He's got solid smash moves and decent speed. He's not amazing, but I bet I can kick plenty of ass with him.

Samus, however, has me disappointed. It seems like they really reduced her strength overall. Moves that would have been effective in the last game kinda suck now...

[Arvin]

my top 5 personal at the moment is dedede, metaknight, luigi, g&w and the 5th is a tough choice but i'd go with falcon

[Crizto]

My top 5: Ike, Marth, Metaknight, Pit, Cpt.Falcon!
Bottom 5: Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Peach, Samus

[Zhais]

I'm getting fairly good at metaknight and olimar out of the new ones :D olimar can surprisingly be good

I got so annoyed trying to use him during SSE

Mr Game and Watch

[BRP]

Mr Game and Watch can't be "bottom tier" can he? He's only seen improvements and was decent in the last game already.

Ahaha, someone else who uses Ike to the fullest XD. I notice you don't use his Counter often. Why is that, Ryko? I use it nearly as much as shielding since it can counter from behind as well if you're quick enough.
