This tier has a mix of characters that are on the rise but still a bit unproven, characters that used to be in A-tier (or higher) but have been falling out of favor, and characters that have shown flashes of brilliance but just don’t have the resume yet. Right below A-tier is our B-tier, which we have as still being lower high tier. That being said, these characters are very, very good and are still among the best in terms of matchup spreads, kit strength, and consistent representation at the highest levels. In most cases, these reasons are related to consistency, having some hard counters, or lack of meaningful results despite being highly rated in a theoretical sense (we’re looking at you Shulk). However, these characters tend to run into some problems that the others above them don’t have. A (High Tier)Īs we mentioned earlier, many of these A-tier characters can definitely make a case for being top-tier. No one else can play him like Tween but he’s still very well positioned in the meta. He has a great matchup spread against many of the top characters in S and A and although he has hard counters out there, they tend to be very niche like Pac-Man and Villager. After Steve, he’s the most requested banned character.Īnother addition we’ve made for 2023 is bringing Diddy Kong up to S-tier. Lastly, we also have characters like Joker, Aegis, and Steve who are candidates for being the very best Smash Ultimate characters.īy the end of 2022, Kazuya has joined the S-tier cast being one of the best one-touch characters with a ton of comeback/robbery potential. Others from this batch, like Peach, Sheik, and Pac-Man, are more rare but show strong results from the few specialists that do pilot them. Just take a look at a tournament from locals to majors and you’ll see a large amount of representation of Palutenas, R.O.B.s, Roys, and Wolfs. In general, they either have some of the best results, represent the best movesets in the game, or have the best matchup spreads (usually a combination of all three). These characters are well-cited being the near-consensus best characters of Smash Ultimate (although some from A-tier do have good arguments). Lastly, note that due to Smash Ultimate’s massive cast, the characters are NOT ranked within their tiers, but are instead ordered by their difficulties.
In addition, we want to note that although Ultimate has completed its roster, the meta will continue to evolve as players develop their respective characters.
Something we always want to stress with our tier lists is that in the vast majority of cases, the player will matter more than the character.Īt the end of the day, make sure to choose the character(s) that you have the most fun with and will be the most motivated to improve with.
