Due to this, both characters were collectively considered among the best characters in the game, which was reflected in results garnered from {{Sm|Samsora}}, {{Sm|MuteAce}}, and {{Sm|Umeki}}. Even after nerfs in subsequent patches, the two were still considered to be top-tier, thanks to Samsora's explosive performances throughout 2019. | ||
Subsequent years slightly hurt | Subsequent years slightly hurt Peach and Daisy's warm reception, most notably due their perceived lower viability in the online metagame, {{Sm|Samsora}}'s significantly decreased activity due to his controversies, Umeki's worse consistency in the post-online metagame, and the rise of other characters in the online metagame which proved to be difficult matchups for the two princesses, such as {{SSBU|Cloud}}, {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{SSBU|Sonic}}. On the other hand, MuteAce's results began improving as he continued to showcase how deadly Peach and Daisy's turnip combos could be, while Ling also began finding more success at a national level. As such, although no longer considered among the best characters in the game, the two are still widely considered a top tier, which is reflected in their placement on the first tier list, as they are collectively ranked 9th. | ||
Peach and Daisy's shared perception would only continue to improve following the release of the first tier list, as MuteAce's results continued to improve. In addition, Umeki's results became slightly more consistent again, while newcomer {{Sm|Eik}} began making waves on the Japanese scene. With better results in 2023, opinions on the two characters began improving ever so slightly, and as such, Peach and Daisy saw a small rise to 7th on the second tier list. | |||
