Just submitted the form on Nintendo's site today ^_^ It's not too hard, really. I just put down a nickname, specified I wanted a character, and wrote: "Capcom character Rockman, Rockman EXE, Rockman Zero"

But I mean, I've taken Japanese for a year. So katakana is pretty easy for me :p Didn't want to be more specific for fear of messing something up. Maybe I should've included Rockman X, though...

I'd love to see Ratchet wield that wrench of his.He can probably send Y. Link to the moon! Laughing

Also,it wouldn't hurt to have him use the Plasma/Quantum whip from "UYA".Courntey Gears would also be great.^^

Roy's power is good against the Computer which is very predictable, hwoever against human opponents Marth's flexibility wins. It's why characters like Fox and Falco are also very popular and very succesful; they're quick, flexible and have good combos.

Isn't Marth considered a "Top Tier" in the game?

I've always been wondering who are the top tiers of Melee... anyone know who they are?

Marth, Luigi and Falco I know off hand, but there might be one or two others. I play as Peach normally who I think is considered Second Tier, because she gets thrown about easily; to counterbalance her insane recovery.

hmmm, to me, Roy is faster than Marth. very strange...

i can understand Falco being one of the best, since i've used him, and he was good. the only reason i like him better than Fox is because if Fox is knocked off the edge, he will fall a whole lot faster than Falco. and because i can kill Fox easily with Roy...

From what I know the top tiers are Shiek, Marth, and Fox. And yes, Roy is slower than Marth. compare his slash speed to Marth's and you'll see.

As far as I'm concerned, Tiers are a load of crap made up by losers who don't want to admit that they just suck with certain characters. I've used these supposed "top Tiers" and wasn't impressed of them, especially Marth and Roy.

Of course, I suppose these are the same people who think that in order to play "seriously", you remove an element of the game (the items) rather than master it. I believe playing seriously means items on very high and stages on random.

Now back on topic, I'm not sure which character interests me more. Metaknight, Pit, or Zero Suit Samus. I mean, Metakight has a sword and can fly, Pit's bow becomes a couple blades, and Samus has the beamsword or whip or whatever that pistol's working as.

I don't really bother with the whole tier list thing...

It's nice to have some stats sort of like that and stuff, but people are taking it way too seriously. There's flame wars and stuff starting over things like whether it's possible to use a character on so and so tier well, because they're on a bottom tier or whether it's possible for somebody to be better with a lower tier character, compared to a higher one.

Again... the idea I don't mind, but it really gets ridiculous somtimes. ._.

The problem is, teirs don't take into account personal play skill.

exactly. that's why i don't pay attention to them (the other reason is that i first heard about them today Laughing

). somebody could easily beat someone else who has a "strong" character with a "weak" one. it's been proven. i was beaten by someone who used Peach.

Errr, tiers and such aside....Peach is not weak to me. Have you ever been drawn into a combo that ended with her downward smash? Pretty devastating. Her float ability is also annoying.

So yes, being beaten by Peach is not unusual.

I find the tier debate ridiculous. All the characters have good qualities and bad qualities, pros and cons. A person's choice of character all has to do with how accustomed they are to playing them and how well the character suits the person's play style.

I mean, I have a friend who is one of the greatest SSBM players I've ever seen. In addition to using Falco, he uses Donkey Kong and Jigglypuff. Is it because they're all top-tier characters and he's dedicated to winning every game? No, it's because those are the characters he likes using and he's accustomed to how their moves work. And that's really what matters.

Can somebody explain to me what these "tiers" are? =|

I still find that skeptical, there's no official word saying they're all back. I mean an actual thing saying they're coming back. Because right now it's just speculation. I would like proof please.

And if you want to try using this:
