| :::I feel like you're taking OT's statements a bit too personally. While he's been rather adamant on keeping Wolf to 10, on the other hand none of us have really provided much of an argument aside from "''Ultimate'' has a large playerbase" and stuff like that.

| Now that 1) updates have been done for a year, 2) Ultimate is just one day from surpassing Smash 4's competitive lifespan counting only Wii U, and 3) offline tournaments have not only been the norm longer than online ones, but have lasted longer than they did pre-COVID, I think we can revive this issue. (Fun fact: Ultimate Palutena has recently surpassed Melee Fox as the character with the most tournament results on this Wiki [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Palutena_(SSBU)&namespace=102&limit=1300], [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Fox_(SSBM)&namespace=102&limit=1300].) As for Smash 4, if two DLC characters can have more players, I think it's only fair that an initial-release character gets the same treatment. <span style="font-family:Formata Regular">[[User:RickTommy|<span style="color:red">Rick</span>]][[User talk:RickTommy|<span style="color:green">Tommy</span>]]</span> 20:25, December 21, 2022 (EST)

| :The problem for ''Ultimate'' right now is that these sections, while "done" for a year, are still rather outdated/not completely cleaned out. Many sections still have players that are only notable at a regional level, or at least had a couple of good appearances nationally. {{SSBU|Robin}} is an egregious example of this. It currently sits at the max amount of possible players in these sections, yet out of the players on this list, the only players that I believe should definitely stay are Angel (strong results online plus some good results and wins offline), Jul (best Robin pre-pandemic), Ke-ya (one of the best Robins pre-pandemic), and Synergy (imo the current best Robin). That's 6 that I'd consider we should look at and/or clean out, and with Robin being a relatively unpopular character throughout ''Ultimate''{{'}}s competitive lifespan, there's no reason for this section to be at the max amount of players. Palutena itself still needs some players who debatably could be removed (eg Compact and marisa) while the only player that I think has an argument to be added into the section is Chase. At least for ''Ultimate'', there really is not a strong case for any of these sections to have a limit over 10.

| :::I don't really have many opinions on it, other than I still don't think anything should be extended unless we really need to. Diddy Kong currently sits at 9 and Sheik sits at 10, and from what I can tell these are all their most relevant players throughout ''Smash 4''{{'}}s history, as they were ranked on the PGR 100. Unless we agree that there are more players that should be added to these sections, I don't see a need to expand it.

| :Revive what issue? If you're going to suggest any character getting a limit increase, as I said before to you, you need to focus on a single character at a time and provide damn good reasoning why. "Look this character gets linked to more on the wiki!" and "two Smash 4 DLC characters got an increased limit, why not a base game character?!" are not legitimate points. For example, if you're going to claim Ult Palutena should have an increased limit, explain how there are more than ten Palutena players that are too important to her competitive history to not mention, specifically listing the players out and explaining why each of them are that important. If you can't make convincing arguments for why more than ten specific players belong for any character, then they don't need an increased limit. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 04:17, January 22, 2023 (EST)

| :First, I think it's better to have these sections on their respective character page, since it is about the character. Second, be aware below is just my take on the two players, and other editors are more likely to have different opinions.
| |
| :Myles is a player that I think most of us agreed upon, but were to hesitant to add. He's been a pretty outstanding Yoshi player, being ranked 9th on the most recent New England PR and is most notable in the online metagame, being ranked on all but 1 iteration of the WWR, including v5. What I was hesitant on, however, is that he has yet to perform well at a national tournament, with his only national result being 193rd at Let's Make Big Moves. National results are pretty important when determining notability in the long run, especially for characters in an ongoing metagame. That being said, I have no doubt Myles would eventually reach that, and his performance during the online season was pretty good as well so I'm not against adding Myles to the section.
| |
| :As for you, you are a very good player on a regional level, especially with how you performed at PGR tournaments. However, again the main issue is national results, which you unfortunately do not have. I have no doubt, however, that you'll see great placements at nationals as well, and once you start seeing those results I'd say you would be fine.
| |
| :I really hope this doesn't come off as discouraging. Unfortunately, not every player with good results can be listed in these sections, and while we do have a 10-player limit, it shouldn't be filled if there aren't any remaining that fit the criteria.

| :I will agree with Cookie in that I would encourage these posts to be on the character talk pages so more of the community can be involved. Gives more opportunity for community consensus and discussion. Yoshi is tricky in general because there's just a lot of really good players. We had considered 7-8 other yoshis (beyond what's currnently listed) as well. Because of that it really made sense to stick to players that have national results (by this wikis standards, I realize there are different definitions on what constitutes a national).

| |
| I understand, I didn't know where to post that on the Yoshi site oof. I thought that the criteria might have been enough since buddies like Raphy made it in their section with K.Rool for example. It's absolutely not discouraging, imma just keep playing!

| Since the only problem was the attendence and performance of national tournaments, do you think my 33rd place at the second largest european event (close to Albion 4), Temple Hermes (863 Players) with wins over PeW, Xetroz and Gin might be enough if we add it up with the other mentioned tourneys?

| You guys pushed me up to perform very well this weekend lol

| |
| :I still think we should wait more because it’s still just one national result, but I’m definitely less opposed than before, since 33rd at what’s effectively an S-tier is pretty good.

| |
| To be honest I think it is historically significant getting 33rd at an S-Tier while also performing extremely good at C-Tiers and even having wins on top European players. If you compare it with the criterias that Bluesky got to get in (before Temple) it might even be slightly more impressive and there are a handful of Yoshi players who agree with me. I'd like to hear what the other staff members think about it, if they agree I'll just keep grinding up I guess xD [[User:Yakumo09|Yakumo09]] ([[User talk:Yakumo09|talk]]) 01:31, September 8, 2021 (GMT+1)

| :I dont really have any strong opposition to inclusion but would like to see more people's opinions than just the three of us. We dont have Squerk or Raptor on the list currently even though they have some good national results (particularly Squerk). As to Raphy, King K. Rool doesn't have particularly good results as a character, especially in comparison to Yoshi. So its a little easier to meet the threshold of "historically significant." With Yoshi, I wouldn't be suprised if half of the list is different by the end of Ultimates lifespan. Whereas, I doubt King K. Rool's list will be all that much different.

| |
| I'll agree with your statement Wiifitkid. But we could honestly cut out Bluesky and add Squerk + Raptor if results are the only criteria needed since they got way more and better results than us just by simply living in a continent with lots of big tourneys and notable players. It's obvious that Japan and NA will show stronger results since europe doesn't have super sized events thats often + not so many top players like in the US. That's why I argumented with "more europe representation" in my first message. If we already talk about slots we could just simply add more slots to more popular characters but I think that has been a discussion here already lol [[User:Yakumo09|Yakumo09]] ([[User talk:Yakumo09|talk]]) 14:50, September 9, 2021 (GMT+1)

| == Charizard, Squirtle, and Ivysaur Ultimate sections? ==
| |
|
| |
| Should Pokemon Trainer's pokemon be given their own competitive sections? Unlike Pyra and Mythra, these three have completely unique movesets and can stand on their own without transforming into each other. Do any notable competitive players use just one pokemon throughout the match? I personally know somebody who mains solo Charizard, but it could be difficult to properly say whether somebody mains one Pokemon or the Trainer. Perhaps just make the templates about their viability and forego having a notable players section for them? [[Special:Contributions/157.242.208.75|157.242.208.75]] 01:23, November 30, 2021 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| There is no serious "solozard", or "solosquirtle"/"solosaur" player at high or top level, it's just not a viable playstyle, period (you are barring yourself from two thirds of your legitimately available moveset because...?).
| |
|
| |
| Pyra and Mythra only have "their own" sections (which are identical since a template is used) because there is no master character standing in the background (such as Rex) that could have it.
| |
|
| |
| Their competitive usage as part of the trio is already extensively covered on the previous sections (Attributes, Changes from, Update history), so I see another section about individual competitive viability, even without listing players, as vastly unnecessary since again these three characters do not function as individuals at top level.
