Though this was the first tier list, [[SmashBoards]] was rife with discussion about tiers long before the Melee Back Room released its "MBR Tier Averages".  The term "F/F/S" (short for "{{SSBM|Falco}}, {{SSBM|Fox}} and {{SSBM|Sheik}}") was popular as a quick reference to Melee's top tier, and likely because coincidentally, [https://www.dictionary.com/browse/ffs it was also used as a term to display anger]. Members on Smashboards, perhaps in backlash against novice sentiment towards {{SSBM|Roy}} and {{SSBM|Link}}, generally disdained those characters, and generally favored the game's fastest characters.

Members on Smashboards largely contested this tier list's placement of {{SSBM|Mewtwo}}, which they felt to be too low.  Many Smashboarders considered Mewtwo a low- or even middle-tier character and were bothered that it, despite its great [[recovery]] and powerful [[throw]]s, was placed at the bottom of the tier list, where most people believed Bowser or Pichu belonged.

Jigglypuff rose into the top 3 for the first time since the tenth tier list. Similarly, Captain Falcon and Yoshi both rose 2 spots due to advancements in their metagames as well as efforts from players such as {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} and {{Sm|aMSa}}. Conversely, both Falco and Dr. Mario fell two spots, the former due to the rise of Jigglypuff and Marth, and the latter due to a stagnant metagame. In the lower tiers, Pichu rose 2 spots and is no longer a bottom 3 character, while Zelda dropped 2 spots into the bottom 3. For the first time since the fifth tier list (not counting the April Fools sixth tier list), Bowser fell back to the bottom of the list.

PG Stats also released a [https://www.pgstats.com/articles/over-1-000-melee-community-members-rank-the-characters 2021 Melee Community Tier List], compiled from 1,077 survey responses from members of the Super Smash Bros. Melee competitive community. On this community list, Jigglypuff and Falco switch spots, Young Link and Donkey Kong switch spots, and Ness and Pichu switch spots. Otherwise, the ordering is the same.
