Mario (SSB): Difference between revisions
→Notable players: Removed Isai from Mario (SSB)'s MSH players since he's more well known for other characters, Noraiki for having little outside of a Kanto placement, and Hendrix for largely the same reason except Fete's 64 bracket was even smaller.

In the years since the third tier list, Mario's presence in tournaments would start to drop. This would be due to players either not showing up as much as in the case of Czar, use him as a secondary as in the case of Alvin and Fireblaster or drop him completely as in the case of Nintendude, who dropped him for Fox. This was not helped by the growing presence of Yoshi and Jigglypuff players who were showing how well their characters were against the higher tiered characters, even having better matchups against them then Mario. This would result in Mario dropping back down to 7th in B tier, a spot he has not been in since the first tier list. However, Mario still has a presence in tournaments, so it is unknown how well he will do in the future. | In the years since the third tier list, Mario's presence in tournaments would start to drop.
