Template:Pit and Dark Pit in competitive play (SSB4): Difference between revisions

(Adding Official Custom Moveset Project here)
Line 5: Line 5:
In the early metagame, players considered Pit to be a mid-tier character, mainly because of his small playerbase and sparse tournament results. Despite this perception, however, players such as {{Sm|Earth}}, {{Sm|KiraFlax}}, and {{Sm|Kuro}} spearheaded his metagame and prove he could keep up with the faster pace of the metagame. This consensus also applied to his [[clone]], {{SSB4|Dark Pit}}, because of their very minor gameplay differences. Earth's efforts in competitive play, most notably placing 13th at {{Trn|GENESIS 3}}, supported Pit's viability as a character. As a result, he was ranked 18th on the first [[tier list]].

However, while Pit's tournament results were impressive up to this point, they have never been as consistent or common as other mid-tier characters such as {{SSB4|Bowser}}. As a result, Pit's continually barren result and very small playerbase, the addition of DLC characters such as {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} and {{SSB4|Cloud}}, and Earth's declining results, leading him to pick up {{SSB4|Corrin}} as as secondary, hindered his standing within subsequent tier lists: Pit fell to 24th on the second tier lsit, 30th/31st on the third list, and finally 32nd/33rd on the fourth list, where he currently remains. Dark Pit followed a largely similar path to Pit: although he was initially ranked 17th on the first tier list, a place above Pit, the second tier list saw him drop to 27th, 3 spots below Pit. Subsequent tier lists had him ranked alongside Pit due to how similar the characters were.

Although some have argued that his current placement is accurate, other players such as {{Sm|Dabuz}} noted that both Pits should be ranked lower due to possessing a weak moveset as well as having one of the worst representation in the metagame. Some players also believed that Dark Pit should be ranked lower than his clone due to the former seeing even worse representation than the latter. Nevertheless, both Pits have seen no major shift in perception since the game's launch and remain a mid-tier character.
