::It's true that anyone can make a tier list, but it's ''widely accepted'' that those characters are among the best in the game. SmashWiki reports not only on what the SBR says, but also from unofficial sources, such as the community at large. It's different from some random person making up a tier list because a very large number of players in the community think so, and a lot of these players are professionals at the game. Before there were things such as SSBMRank, players like {{Sm|Mew2King}} and {{Sm|Mango}} were considered to be among the best ''Smash'' players in the world, even though there was no official ranking to label them so. It's the same thing here.

::The reddit source I listed attached a link to a forum in Japanese, which I guess is the tier list produced there. A Google search of "smash 4 tier list japan" or something similar yields a lot of posts about a tier list in Japan. Also, there are articles on SmashWiki of tier lists of other regions, such as [[Japanese tier list]] and [[Brazilian tier list]].

:::I'm well aware that we have those pages here. And, again, I'm well aware that the community holds those opinions. But this page is about the '''SBR's''' tier list, not the Japanese one. I am one who has no objections to you putting what you put on this page over [[Japanese tier list|here]], but I'd honestly wait on an admin's approval on that one.

::::This page is not supposed to be exclusively about the SBR tier list, and if it is, it shouldn't be that way. This article is about tiers and tier lists in general; the SBR tier lists are put here because they are the ones most widely accepted by the community; even people in Japan and Latin America usually refer to the SBR's tier lists. If the Japanese tier list was the most widely trusted source, it would be listed here instead of the SBR tier list.
