Alright, done streaming for today. Thanks for playing with me Hatchtag, Serebii Joe, and Speedwagon.
Now on to what we're all here for...
Tier list speculation! >
Come on, it's fun, don't be a square and shut this down with "the game's not even out yet! :U" I'm only going to include characters who I am very confident of their tier list placement. I think Shulk is a bad character, but he might have hidden potential so I'm leaving him out.
TIER A
Bowser Jr - Basically a boss character. He has so many tools.
TIER B
Villager - The new Snake. Gonna be my main.
Robin - Can't do long combo strings but can go in for the kill while the opponent is trapped by Elfire.
Sheik - Smash 4 is a tilt focused game and Sheik is in it.
Zero Suit Samus - Her new shortrange attack prowess outweigh her nerfs.
Pikachu - Great normals and recovery.
Mario - Combos like a champ. Did a 10 hit combo with him today. I think he's better than Doctor Mario.
TIER C
Captain Falcon - Some of his combo moves have been turned into dedicated finishers. Has a lot of trouble with approach and his recovery sucks as usual.
Falco - His groundgame seems okay and his upsmash is quick. His Dair has like 15 frame startup
and like 15 frame endlag
and has a tiny spike hitbox. Why?
Luigi - Decent airgame. WTF did they do to his Up-B sweetspot?
TIER D
Little Mac - Get him in the air and he's in trouble. Get him off the stage and he's done.
Mega Man - Cannot combo at all and his close range game is awful. Might have hidden potential as a keep-away character, but his projectiles aren't really that good so don't count on it.
