A tier list is a ranking of each character's metagame, based on 1-on-1 battles with tournament settings.
Current SSBM tier list
This is the eighth Smash Back Room tier list since its inception. This list is current of 7/10/2006, but is subject to change at any time.
SSB tier list
This list is cited from a GameFAQs post and generally reflects the sentiments of top-level SSB players.
Controversy
It is common for novices to deny the existance of tiers and claim that every character in the game has an equal potential (or, alternately, that their full potentials are unequal, but humans cannot come near to their full potential, and thus the tier differences do not matter). Although most Super Smash Bros. message boards have seen this argument in one form or another, the greatest controversy occured in 2003 on Smash World Forums and GameFAQs. A massive chain of arguments, called the Tier Wars, engulfed Smash World Forums, and then spread to the Super Smash Bros. Melee board at GameFAQs where it remained for many months. Notable users that took part in this debate are snex and redwall_dude, who represented the so-called "pro-tiers" who affirmed the existance of tiers and the inequality of characters.
