== 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. series|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.
