Notices
The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

User:Cookies and Creme/Highest Character Placements/Percent Test

From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Current system for determining whether a character counts for a major win/highest placement isn't the greatest. This is especially the case for the latter, since the rule we currently have is rather arbitrary and somewhat debatable, while for both the rules are somewhat more complicated than they should be. The purpose of this test is to see whether using the percent usage is better than just the raw number by looking at the "border" cases for major winners and character placements.

The following rules remain the same:

  • Characters will only count if they are used outside of pools in a game win, then set win. For invitationals, all games/sets are counted.
