This is the second tier list released by the Smash 4 Back Room.<ref>[http://smashboards.com/threads/4br-smash-for-wii-u-tier-list-v2-0.440779/]</ref> This list sees drastic shifts as a result of the three balance patches and two new characters that released between the first list and this one. {{SSB4| | This is the second tier list released by the Smash 4 Back Room.<ref>[http://smashboards.com/threads/4br-smash-for-wii-u-tier-list-v2-0.440779/]</ref> This list sees drastic shifts as a result of the three balance patches and two new characters that released between the first list and this one. {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}}'s consistently high placings and popularity around the world have led to him securing the top spot--this is the fastest in ''Smash'' history that a top character, in this case {{SSB4|Sheik}}, has been replaced. Thanks to his outstanding results, {{SSB4|Mario}} rose three places, putting him at the top five of the list. The most outstanding improvement is {{SSB4|Mewtwo}}'s unprecedented 27-spot rise thanks to its buffed speed, strength, and [[hitbox]]es, leading to high tournament placings thanks to players such as {{Sm|Abadango}}. {{SSB4|Marth}} also saw a great jump, courtesy of buffs to his speed and hitboxes as well as the work of mains such as {{Sm|Leo}}, {{Sm|Mr.E}}, and {{Sm|Pugwest}}. The character with the biggest drop is {{SSB4|Roy}}, who, despite being technically buffed from ''Melee'' and receiving some slight lag reductions in [[1.1.4]], has had very limited tournament representation due to his glaring flaws: limited approach options, laggy attacks, high vulnerability to combos, and poor recovery. {{SSB4|Bowser Jr.}} also saw a noticeable drop due to {{Sm|Tweek}} switching to {{SSB4|Cloud}} and therefore having almost no high-level tournament representation. {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}} is now dead last due to its almost nonexistent representation, attributed to its abysmal survivability, range, and combo ability. | ||
