Smash brother if you played the game properly and didn't pretend it to be Streetfighter and inventing your own imaginary restrictions, the game is very balanced. Anyone can beat anyone with any character ona good day.
This is probably one of the hardest points to argue because evidence of this is tough to come by.
Regardless...
The "official" tier list:
http://forums.g4tv.com/messageview.cfm?catid=18&threadid=170581Second, the "Game Over" videos are hard to come by, but can be found on DC++ at
http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net on the server ssbdc.no-ip.com
I watched them all before it went to DC++ only, (as they previously had them for download here
http://www.angelfire.com/games5/ssbm/).
It's one thing to claim that there are no tiers in existence, but what evidence do you offer? If you want to tell me that there are no tiers, explain why all of the Game Over final matches came down to 5 characters and ONLY 5 characters (FYI, Game Over is one of the largest SSBM tournaments in the US, if not THE largest). If tiers truly did not exist, this would not have happened, as any character would have a chance of beating any other character and the every round of the tournament would be just as random as the last.
Unless you're trying to say that everyone chooses Fox, Falco, Marth, Shiek, Samus and Peach for a reason which has
nothing to do with gameplay, then please explain why these are the characters which prevail in the Game Over tourney and many others.
Until you can show me a list of large tournaments in which players won with lower to bottom tier characters, I'm inclined to believe that tiers do indeed exist.
