The only section probably worth looking at and the only section updated since I canned this page.
Who I consider the best at each character, since ZeRo stopped doing his. Note that for select tournaments and wins, they don't include their best results and defeats, and are merely there as examples.

|{{Head|Bowser|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Nairo|USA}}||{{Sm|LordMix|USA}}||Although mostly known for being a secondary, he has defeated many top players with Bowser such as {{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}.

|{{Head|Yoshi|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Ron|Japan}}||{{Sm|Seth|USA}}, {{Sm|Raptor|USA}}||Tri-mains Yoshi but has the best Yoshi wins and performances, including winning {{Trn|Sumabato 18}} defeating {{Sm|Shuton}} and {{Sm|HIKARU}} with Yoshi.

|-

|{{Head|Bowser Jr.|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Tweek|USA}}||&mdash;||Really the only Bowser Jr. player ever relevant in top-level competitive play, and Tweek's character switch contributed to Bowser Jr.'s drop on the tier list.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Wario|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Glutonny}}||1st: [[Albion 2]], [[Valhalla]]<br>3rd: [[Syndicate 2017]], [[Glitch 5]]<br>9th: [[B.E.A.S.T 7]], [[Midwest Mayhem 11]]||{{Sm|ANTi}}, {{Sm|Fatality}}, {{Sm|Kameme}}, {{Sm|Darkshad}}, {{Sm|Ixis}}||{{Sm|Reflex}}, {{Sm|Deathorse}}

|{{Head|Donkey Kong|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|HIKARU|Japan}}||{{Sm|Tweek|USA}}||While Tweek has the better wins, Tweek also predominantly played Cloud and had much better performances with Cloud. On the other hand, HIKARU is a solo-DK and regularly places highly at Japanese events. He remains the only solo-Donkey Kong player to top 8 a major (doing so at {{Trn|2GGC: Civil War}}, no less).
|-
|-
|{{Head|Diddy Kong|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|ZeRo}}||1st: 56 consecutive tournaments from [http://smashboards.com/rankings/ugc-biweekly-17.3188/event UGC Biweekly #17] to [[The Big House 5]]||{{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}||{{Sm|Zinoto}}, {{Sm|MVD}}

|{{Head|Little Mac|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Tarakotori|Japan}}||{{Sm|Sol|USA}}||Tough call to make, but Tarakotori's 9th-place run at {{Trn|Umebura Smash 4 Final}} is by far the best Little Mac performance of all-time, as not only was it the highest Little Mac placed at a major, but he also defeated {{Sm|Kameme}}, {{Sm|Zackray}}, and {{Sm|takera}}. His other results are similar to Sol, as Tarakotori regularly placing top 64 at {{Trn|Umebura|series}} events and and has also defeated players like {{Sm|Eim}}, {{Sm|Kuro}}, and {{Sm|Umeki}} at notable Japanese events.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Link|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|T}}||2nd: [[Umebura 24]], [[Umebura 31]]<br>3rd: [[2GGC: Civil War]]<br>9th: [[2GGC: West Side Saga]], [[EVO Japan 2018]], [[Umebura Tokaigi Qualifier 2]]||{{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|KEN}}, {{Sm|Fatality}}, {{Sm|Kameme}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, {{Sm|Elegant}}||{{Sm|Scizor}}, {{Sm|Izaw}}
|{{Head|Link|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|T|Japan}}||&mdash;||The only relevant Link player in top-level play (including being the only Link player ever ranked on a [[PGR]]). His rise in Japan and his run to 3rd at {{Trn|2GGC: Civil War}} was instrumental to Link's rise on the tier list.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Zelda|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|ven}}||7th: [[DVDA 7]]<br>25th: [[Smash Masters League: Battle for Vegas]]<br>33rd: [[2GGT: Mexico Saga]], [[Rise 2018]]||{{Sm|Zenyou}}, {{Sm|Max Ketchum}}||{{Sm|Rizeasu}}, {{Sm|Onpu}}
|{{Head|Zelda|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Rizeasu|Japan}}||{{Sm|ven|USA}}||Definitely can see this be a tossup due to Rizeasu's true main being Random, but Rizeasu has arguably the best Zelda performances of all-time, including 2nd at {{Trn|Sumabato Tokaigi Qualifier 2}} and 7th at {{Trn|Sumabato 28}} defeating {{Sm|HIKARU}}, as well as wins over players such as {{Sm|Kuro}} and {{Sm|ikep}}.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Sheik|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Mr. R}}||1st: [[B.E.A.S.T 6]], [[Syndicate 2016]], [[B.E.A.S.T 7]]<br>2nd: [[EVO 2015]], [[CEO Dreamland]], [[2GG: Hyrule Saga]]<br>3rd: [[Apex 2015]], [[Super Smash Con 2016]]||{{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|ANTi}}||{{Sm|VoiD}}, {{Sm|ZeRo}}
|{{Head|Sheik|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|ZeRo|Chile}}||{{Sm|Mr.R|Netherlands}}, {{Sm|VoiD|USA}}||The greatest ''Smash 4'' player of all-time who used Sheik during his prime, though longevity-wise I could see some people arguing Mr.R or VoiD.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Ganondorf|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Adom}}||9th: [[Syndicate 2017]]<br>25th: [[PPT Winter]], [[Battle Arena Melbourne 10]]||{{Sm|quiK}}, {{Sm|Fire}}||{{Sm|Gungnir}}, {{Sm|Pon}}
|{{Head|Ganondorf|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|adom|Israel}}||{{Sm|Gungnir|Japan}}, {{Sm|Rickles|USA}}||Literally could go to any of these three (or more) because the best Ganondorf players attend nothing. adom at least has a good record in Europe (9th at {{Trn|Syndicate 2017}} and {{Trn|Sweet Impact - Deflagration}} are two notable ones) and was ranked 46th in [[European Smash 4 Power Rankings|Europe]].
|-
|-
|{{Head|Toon Link|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Sigma}}||1st: [[Sumabato 22]]<br>4th: [[Sumabato 20]], [[Umebura Smash 4 Final]]<br>9th: [[Umebura S.A.T.]], [[EVO Japan 2018]]||{{Sm|komorikiri}}, {{Sm|ESAM}}, {{Sm|HIKARU}}, {{Sm|Nietono}}, {{Sm|Earth}}||{{Sm|Ri-ma}}, {{Sm|Hyuga}}
|{{Head|Toon Link|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Sigma|Japan}}||{{Sm|Hyuga|Mexico}}||Only Toon Link player ranked on the [[PGR 100]] and has the best Toon Link performances, such as 4th at {{Trn|Umebura Smash 4 Final}} and many great {{Trn|Sumabato}} runs, such as winning {{Trn|Sumabato 22}}. Hyuga was ranked higher and had comparable results, especially early on, but he didn't have a career after 2016.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Samus|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|IcyMist}}||7th: [[Showdown: Battle Royale]]<br>9th: [[Royal Flush]]<br>13th: [[Super Smash Con 2018]]<br>17th: [[Mega Smash Mondays 100]]||{{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Marss}}, {{Sm|Elegant}}, {{Sm|Manny}}, {{Sm|Wrath}}, {{Sm|Ned}}||{{Sm|ESAM}}, {{Sm|Pyreeze}}
|{{Head|Samus|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|IcyMist|USA}}||{{Sm|ESAM|USA}}||ESAM has the better wins with Samus (mainly {{Sm|Ally}}), but he is primarily a Pikachu player. IcyMist has achieved some of the best Samus performances with solo-Samus, such as being the queen of Wi-Fi events and great runs at majors, including 9th at {{Trn|Royal Flush}} and 13th at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2018}} defeating {{Sm|Marss}} in the former and {{Sm|Elegant}} and {{Sm|Wrath}} in the latter.
|-
|-

|{{Head|Zero Suit Samus|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Nairo|USA}}||&mdash;||One of the best ''Smash 4'' players of all-time.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Pit|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Earth}}||2nd: [[Sumabato 14]], [[Waseda Festival 2016]]<br>9th: [[Umebura F.A.T.]], [[EVO 2016]], [[Umebura T.A.T.]]<br>13th: [[Umebura Tokaigi Qualifier]], [[Umebura 29]]||{{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|VoiD}}, {{Sm|komorikiri}}, {{Sm|KEN}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|Kameme}}||{{Sm|KiraFlax}}, {{Sm|Paseriman}}
|{{Head|Pit|g=SSB4|s=20px}}{{Head|Dark Pit|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Earth|Japan}}||&mdash;||The only relevant Pit/Dark Pit player in competitive play and was the only Pit player ranked on the [[PGR]].
|-
|-
|{{Head|Palutena|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|TLTC}}||9th: [[2GGT: Fresh Saga]]<br>13th: [[2GGT: ESAM Saga]], [[2GGT: FOW Saga]], [[2GGT: KTAR Saga]]<br>17th: [[2GGT: Abadango Saga]], [[2GGC: Greninja Saga]]||{{Sm|Elegant}}, {{Sm|Kirihara}}, {{Sm|Ranai}}, {{Sm|Zenyou}}, {{Sm|Charlie}}, {{Sm|Rich Brown}}||{{Sm|Prince Ramen}}, {{Sm|Iceninja}}
|{{Head|Palutena|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|TLTC|USA}}||{{Sm|Prince Ramen|USA}}||While Prince Ramen has the {{Sm|ZeRo}} win, he doesn't really have anything else outside of that while TLTC has the longevity.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Marth|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|MkLeo}}||1st: [[2GGT: ZeRo Saga]], [[GENESIS 4]], [[SwitchFest]], [[Super Smash Con 2018]]<br>2nd: [[DreamHack Austin 2017]], [[CEO 2017]]||{{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|VoiD}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Mistake}}||{{Sm|Pugwest}}, {{Sm|Mr E}}
|{{Head|Marth|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|MkLeo|Mexico}}||&mdash;||One of the best ''Smash 4'' players of all-time.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Ike|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Ryo}}||7th: [[MLG World Finals 2015]]<br>9th: [[Super Smash Con 2016]]<br>17th: [[The Big House 5]], [[2GGT: Fresh Saga]], [[Frame Perfect Series 2]]<br>25th: [[GENESIS 5]]||{{Sm|ESAM}}, {{Sm|ANTi}}, {{Sm|Nietono}}, {{Sm|6WX}}, {{Sm|Locus}}, {{Sm|Mr E}}||{{Sm|Ryuga}}, {{Sm|San}}
|{{Head|Ike|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Ryo|USA}}||{{Sm|San|USA}}||The only Ike player ever ranked on the [[PGR]] and the only Ike player to place top 8 at a major (7th at {{Trn|MLG World Finals 2015}}. The latter is what really puts him over San in my opinion.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Robin|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Dath}}||3rd: [[Shine 2016]]<br>4th [[Glitch]]<br>17th: [[CEO 2016]], [[2GGC: GENESIS Saga]], [[Too Hot to Handle]]||{{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Marss}}, {{Sm|ANTi}}, {{Sm|ESAM}}, {{Sm|Nietono}}, {{Sm|6WX}}||{{Sm|Ke-ya}}, {{Sm|Mr.II}}
|{{Head|Robin|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Dath|USA}}||&mdash;||His 3rd-place run at {{Trn|Shine 2016}} is just unmatchable. Also the only Robin player ever ranked on the [[PGR]].
|-
|-
|{{Head|Duck Hunt|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Raito}}||1st: [[Sumabato 23]]<br>5th: [[Umebura Tokaigi Qualifier 2]], [[CEO 2018]]<br>7th: [[Sumabato Tokaigi Qualifiers 2]], [[Switchfest]], [[EVO 2018]]||{{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|VoiD}}, {{Sm|KEN}}, {{Sm|Mr. R}}||{{Sm|Brood}}, {{Sm|Ozone}}
|{{Head|Duck Hunt|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Raito|Japan}}||&mdash;||The only Duck Hunt player ever ranked on the [[PGR]], even if {{Sm|Brood}} had the {{Sm|ZeRo}} win.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Kirby|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|MikeKirby}}||5th: [[KTAR XIV]]<br>9th: [[KTAR XII]]<br>25th: [[KTAR XI]], [[KTAR XVIII]]||{{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Vinnie}}||{{Sm|Komota}}, {{Sm|Poyo}}
|{{Head|Kirby|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Komota|USA}}||{{Sm|MikeKirby|USA}}||MikeKirby has the longevity but didn't really have much outside his region. Komota has the {{Sm|Ally}} win and the best Kirby placement at a major (25th at {{Trn|The Big House 8}}).
|-
|-
|{{Head|King Dedede|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|zaki}}||5th: [[Sumabato 19]]<br>17th: [[Smash 'N' Splash 4]], [[2GG: Hyrule Saga]], [[Sumabato Smash 4 Final]], [[Umebura Smash 4 Final]]||{{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Charlie}}, {{Sm|Rags}}||{{Sm|Big D}}, {{Sm|El Bardo}}
|{{Head|King Dedede|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|zaki|Japan}}||&mdash;||He beat {{Sm|MkLeo}}.

|{{Head|Meta Knight|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|MkLeo|Mexico}}||&mdash;||One of the best ''Smash 4'' players of all-time, though more known for Cloud and Marth he did win {{Trn|2GG Championship}} with primarily Meta Knight.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Fox|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Larry Lurr}}||1st: [[2GGT: Mexico Saga]], [[PPT Winter]], [[DreamHack Montreal 2017]], [[DreamHack Austin 2018]], [[DreamHack Montreal 2018]]||{{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|ANTi}}, {{Sm|komorikiri}}, {{Sm|Mr. R}}||{{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|NAKAT}}
|{{Head|Fox|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Larry Lurr|USA}}||&mdash;||One of the best ''Smash 4'' players of all-time. Only {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} really challenged his title.
|-

|{{Head|Falco|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|AC}}||1st: [[2GG: Breakthrough]]<br>13th: [[2GG: Pay It Forward]]<br>33rd: [[2GGC: GENESIS Saga]]||{{Sm|6WX}}, {{Sm|Aarvark}}||{{Sm|Daybreak}}, {{Sm|Keitaro}}
|{{Head|Falco|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|AC|USA}}||{{Sm|Daybreak|USA}}, {{Sm|Keitaro|USA}}||Beat {{Sm|6WX}} with Falco and is the highest-placing Falco player at a major (25th at {{Trn|2GGT: Abadango Saga}}). Still mainly MK though.
|-
|-
|{{Head|Pikachu|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|ESAM}}||1st: [[Smashadelphia 2017]]<br>2nd: [[DreamHack Montreal 2017]], [[DreamHack Austin 2018]], [[The Big House 8]]<br>3rd: [[MLG World Finals 2015]], [[B.E.A.S.T 6]]||{{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|Mr. R}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}||{{Sm|Captain L}}, {{Sm|Rideae}}
|{{Head|Pikachu|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|ESAM|USA}}||&mdash;||The only Pikachu player ranked on all [[PGR]] rankings and for some reason the only person who thinks Pikachu is top 10.
|-
|-

|{{Head|Charizard|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Tosshi|Japan}}||{{Sm|Sharpyzard|Dominican Republic}}||Sharpyzard has more exposure and the big win at {{Trn|BeSmash 2016}}, but Tosshi's 4th at {{Trn|Umebura 31}} defeating {{Sm|Nietono}} and {{Sm|Kome}} is the best Charizard performance of all-time, plus Tosshi has the best Charizard placement at a major (25th at {{Trn|Umebura Japan Major}}) and better wins ({{Sm|Ranai}})
|-
|-
|{{Head|Lucario|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Tsu-}}||2nd: [[Frostbite 2017]]<br>3rd: [[Umebura 24]], [[Umebura Tokaigi Qualifier 2]]<br>7th: [[2GGC: ARMS Saga]], [[2GGC: West Side Saga]], [[Umebura 32]]||{{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|KEN}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|komorikiri}}||{{Sm|Serge}}, {{Sm|Day}}
|{{Head|Lucario|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Tsu-|Japan}}||&mdash;||Almost won a major ({{Trn|Frostbite 2017}}) and is the only Lucario player ranked top 50 on multiple [[PGR]] rankings.
|-

|{{Head|Jigglypuff|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Captain L}}||9th: [[CEO 2018]]<br>13th: [[Smash 'N' Splash 4]]<br>17th: [[Get On My Level 2018]]||{{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|BestNess}}, {{Sm|John Numbers}}||{{Sm|Arika}}, {{Sm|LeeT}}
|{{Head|Jigglypuff|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Arika|Japan}}||{{Sm|Captain L|Canada}}||Captain L has defeated top players, but is still mainly Pikachu.

|{{Head|Greninja|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|iStudying|Netherlands}}||{{Sm|Lea|Japan}}, {{Sm|Somé|Japan}}||Very tough, but I think iStudying edges them out thanks to the 2nd at {{Trn|B.E.A.S.T 6}} over {{Sm|ESAM}} and win over {{Sm|Ally}} at {{Trn|UGC Smash Open}}, as well as being the only Greninja player ranked on the [[PGR]]. Can't argue if people believe in Lea or Somé.

|{{Head|ROB|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|8BitMan|USA}}||{{Sm|OCEAN|Japan}}||Also very tough, but 8BitMan was the only [[PGR]]-ranked R.O.B. player and still had good R.O.B. performances even after picking up {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}}. OCEAN is just too inconsistent for me.

|{{Head|Olimar|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Shuton|Japan}}||&mdash;||The only solo-Olimar player ranked on multiple [[PGR]] rankings. Dabuz was mainly a Rosalina player at the end of the day.

|{{Head|Pac-Man|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Sinji|USA}}||{{Sm|Tea|Japan}}||Tea just came too little too late in my opinion. Sinji had the longevity and the [[PGR]] rankings even if Tea had the better peaks.

|{{Head|Roy|g=SSB4|s=20px}}||{{Sm|Cloudy|Mexico}}||{{Sm|Hyper Kirby|USA}}, {{Sm|TheFlow|France}}||Insane Mexican results such as 2nd at {{Trn|Smash Fest 3}} and 9th at {{Trn|Smash Factor 6}} defeating {{Sm|Kameme}}. Hyper Kirby has consistent majors but not as many great wins while TheFlow had a great {{Trn|Albion 3}} but also not that many great wins (cannot verify {{Sm|Lima}} win).

Best Player of Each Character[edit]

The only section probably worth looking at and the only section updated since I canned this page.

Character Player Other candidates Reason
Mario (SSB4) USA Ally One of the best Smash 4 players best known for winning EVO 2016, the largest Smash 4 event of all-time.
Luigi (SSB4) USA Elegant The only Luigi player ranked on multiple PGR rankings.
Peach (SSB4) USA Samsora The only Peach player who was ranked on multiple PGR rankings.
Bowser (SSB4) USA Nairo USA LordMix Although mostly known for being a secondary, he has defeated many top players with Bowser such as ZeRo, MkLeo, Tweek.
Yoshi (SSB4) Japan Ron USA Seth, USA Raptor Tri-mains Yoshi but has the best Yoshi wins and performances, including winning Sumabato 18 defeating Shuton and HIKARU with Yoshi. He is also the only Yoshi player ranked on the PGR 100, ranking 57th.
Rosalina (SSB4) USA Dabuz One of the best Smash 4 players who has won six majors during Smash 4's heyday, including 2GGC: Civil War, considered one of the hardest Smash 4 events of all-time.
Bowser Jr. (SSB4) USA Tweek Really the only Bowser Jr. player ever relevant in top-level competitive play, and Tweek's character switch contributed to Bowser Jr.'s drop on the tier list.
Wario (SSB4) France Glutonny Europe's second-best player and the only Wario player ranked on the PGR, ranking 70th on the PGR 100.
Donkey Kong (SSB4) Japan HIKARU USA Tweek While Tweek has the better wins, Tweek also predominantly played Cloud and had much better performances with Cloud. On the other hand, HIKARU is a solo-DK and regularly places highly at Japanese events. He remains the only solo-Donkey Kong player to top 8 a major (doing so at 2GGC: Civil War, no less).
Diddy Kong (SSB4) Chile ZeRo The greatest Smash 4 player of all-time.
Mr. Game & Watch (SSB4) Mexico Maister Mexico Regi The only Mr. Game & Watch player ranked on the PGR, including 81st on the PGR 100.
Little Mac (SSB4) Japan Tarakotori USA Sol Tough call to make, but Tarakotori's 9th-place run at Umebura Smash 4 Final is by far the best Little Mac performance of all-time, as not only was it the highest Little Mac placed at a major, but he also defeated Kameme, Zackray, and takera. His other results are similar to Sol, as Tarakotori regularly placing top 64 at Umebura events and and has also defeated players like Eim, Kuro, and Umeki at notable Japanese events.
Link (SSB4) Japan T The only relevant Link player in top-level play (including being the only Link player ever ranked on a PGR). His rise in Japan and his run to 3rd at 2GGC: Civil War was instrumental to Link's rise on the tier list.
Zelda (SSB4) Japan Rizeasu USA ven Definitely can see this be a tossup due to Rizeasu's true main being Random, but Rizeasu has arguably the best Zelda performances of all-time, including 2nd at Sumabato Tokaigi Qualifier 2 and 7th at Sumabato 28 defeating HIKARU, as well as wins over players such as Kuro and ikep.
Sheik (SSB4) Chile ZeRo Netherlands Mr.R, USA VoiD The greatest Smash 4 player of all-time who used Sheik during his prime, though longevity-wise I could see some people arguing Mr.R or VoiD.
Ganondorf (SSB4) Israel adom Japan Gungnir, USA Rickles Literally could go to any of these three (or more) because the best Ganondorf players attend nothing. adom at least has a good record in Europe (9th at Syndicate 2017 and Sweet Impact - Deflagration are two notable ones) and was ranked 46th in Europe.
Toon Link (SSB4) Japan Sigma Mexico Hyuga Only Toon Link player ranked on the PGR 100 and has the best Toon Link performances, such as 4th at Umebura Smash 4 Final and many great Sumabato runs, such as winning Sumabato 22. Hyuga was ranked higher and had comparable results, especially early on, but he didn't have a career after 2016.
Samus (SSB4) USA IcyMist USA ESAM ESAM has the better wins with Samus (mainly Ally), but he is primarily a Pikachu player. IcyMist has achieved some of the best Samus performances with solo-Samus, such as being the queen of Wi-Fi events and great runs at majors, including 9th at Royal Flush and 13th at Super Smash Con 2018 defeating Marss in the former and Elegant and Wrath in the latter.
Zero Suit Samus (SSB4) USA Nairo One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time.
Pit (SSB4)Dark Pit (SSB4) Japan Earth The only relevant Pit/Dark Pit player in competitive play and was the only Pit player ranked on the PGR.
Palutena (SSB4) USA TLTC USA Prince Ramen While Prince Ramen has the ZeRo win, he doesn't really have anything else outside of that while TLTC has the longevity.
Marth (SSB4) Mexico MkLeo One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time.
Ike (SSB4) USA Ryo USA San The only Ike player ever ranked on the PGR and the only Ike player to place top 8 at a major (7th at MLG World Finals 2015. The latter is what really puts him over San in my opinion.
Robin (SSB4) USA Dath His 3rd-place run at Shine 2016 is just unmatchable. Also the only Robin player ever ranked on the PGR.
Duck Hunt (SSB4) Japan Raito The only Duck Hunt player ever ranked on the PGR, even if Brood had the ZeRo win.
Kirby (SSB4) USA Komota USA MikeKirby MikeKirby has the longevity but didn't really have much outside his region. Komota has the Ally win and the best Kirby placement at a major (25th at The Big House 8).
King Dedede (SSB4) Japan zaki He beat MkLeo.
Meta Knight (SSB4) Mexico MkLeo One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time, though more known for Cloud and Marth he did win 2GG Championship with primarily Meta Knight.
Fox (SSB4) USA Larry Lurr One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time. Only Light really challenged his title.
Falco (SSB4) USA AC USA Daybreak, USA Keitaro Beat 6WX with Falco and is the highest-placing Falco player at a major (25th at 2GGT: Abadango Saga). Still mainly MK though.
Pikachu (SSB4) USA ESAM The only Pikachu player ranked on all PGR rankings and for some reason the only person who thinks Pikachu is top 10.
Charizard (SSB4) Japan Tosshi Dominican Republic Sharpyzard Sharpyzard has more exposure and the big win at BeSmash 2016, but Tosshi's 4th at Umebura 31 defeating Nietono and Kome is the best Charizard performance of all-time, plus Tosshi has the best Charizard placement at a major (25th at Umebura Japan Major) and better wins (Ranai)
Lucario (SSB4) Japan Tsu- Almost won a major (Frostbite 2017) and is the only Lucario player ranked top 50 on multiple PGR rankings.
Jigglypuff (SSB4) Japan Arika Canada Captain L Captain L has defeated top players, but is still mainly Pikachu. Conversely, Arika has the best solo-Jigglypuff performance of all-time, placing 17th at Umebura Smash 4 Final defeating takera and Masashi.
Greninja (SSB4) Netherlands iStudying Japan Lea, Japan Somé Very tough, but I think iStudying edges them out thanks to the 2nd at B.E.A.S.T 6 over ESAM and win over Ally at UGC Smash Open, as well as being the only Greninja player ranked on the PGR. Can't argue if people believe in Lea or Somé.
ROB (SSB4) USA 8BitMan Japan OCEAN Also very tough, but 8BitMan was the only PGR-ranked R.O.B. player and still had good R.O.B. performances even after picking up Diddy Kong. OCEAN is just too inconsistent for me.
Ness (SSB4) USA FOW The highest-ranking Ness player (12th on the PGR v1) and the only Ness player with multiple top 8s at majors.
Captain Falcon (SSB4) USA Fatality The only Captain Falcon player ranked on multiple PGR rankings.
Villager (SSB4) Japan Ranai The only Villager player ranked on multiple PGR rankings, as well as the only Villager player to win a major.
Olimar (SSB4) Japan Shuton The only solo-Olimar player ranked on multiple PGR rankings. Dabuz was mainly a Rosalina player at the end of the day.
Wii Fit Trainer (SSB4) USA John Numbers The best peaks (placed 17th at four majors) and wins (WaDi, 6WX, Zinoto) out of any Wii Fit Trainer player, and has the longevity as well.
Shulk (SSB4) Japan Kome The only Shulk player ranked on the PGR.
Dr. Mario (SSB4) USA B7Games Canada 2ManyCooks Abadango win at 2GGT: Abadango Saga and placing 33rd at 2GGC: Midwest Mayhem Saga takes it for me.
Lucina (SSB4) USA Mr E Probably the only player actually successful with solo-Lucina, as most other players (such as ZeRo) only used Lucina as a secondary.
Pac-Man (SSB4) USA Sinji Japan Tea Tea just came too little too late in my opinion. Sinji had the longevity and the PGR rankings even if Tea had the better peaks.
Mega Man (SSB4) Japan Kameme The only Mega Man player ranked in the top 50 on the PGR 100.
Sonic (SSB4) Japan KEN One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time and the only Sonic player with a major win (Umebura S.A.T.).
Mewtwo (SSB4) Japan Abadango USA WaDi The only Mewtwo player with a major win (Pound 2016), though I can see arguments for WaDi due to Abadango playing Bayonetta towards the game's end as well as WaDi's win over ZeRo.
Lucas (SSB4) Japan Taiheita The only Lucas player ranked on the PGR.
Roy (SSB4) Mexico Cloudy USA Hyper Kirby, France TheFlow Insane Mexican results such as 2nd at Smash Fest 3 and 9th at Smash Factor 6 defeating Kameme. Hyper Kirby has consistent majors but not as many great wins while TheFlow had a great Albion 3 but also not that many great wins (cannot verify Lima win).
Ryu (SSB4) USA Darkshad USA Locus Tough since both have similar results, but Darkshad's ZeRo win trumps Locus's 1-place higher ranking on the PGR 100 in my opinion.
Cloud (SSB4) Mexico MkLeo USA Tweek One of the best Smash 4 players of all-time who stuck with Cloud until the end while Tweek eventually began playing more Bayonetta.
Corrin (SSB4) USA Cosmos The only Corrin player to win a major (The Big House 8) and the only Corrin player ranked in the top 50 on the PGR 100.
Bayonetta (SSB4) USA Salem USA Tweek Salem being a contender for #1 when ZeRo was still active, his win at EVO 2017, and being solo-Bayonetta for most of Smash 4 takes it for me.
Mii Brawler (SSB4) USA Dapuffster Literally the only Mii Brawler player who did anything in competitive play.
Mii Gunner (SSB4) Japan Rom USA AEMehr AEMehr has better peaks (13th at IBP Masters Showdown) but Rom has by far the better wins (Kirihara, Raito, Pugwest).
Mii Swordfighter (SSB4) No one plays this character
