Ssbu Tier List



Recently, the world's best Jigglypuff sat down to create and go over his new tier list for Smash Ultimate's Version 8.1.0 update covering all of the most recent balance changes and additions to. We got SSBU Update 9.0.1 around two weeks ago - it’s mostly slight adjustments for Minecraft heroes, added with much bigger Update 9.0.0. Is this time enough to understand the new balance and create a tier list? It’s quite enough for professional Smash players, and Hungrybox is one of the first who shares his tier list for Smash Ultimate 9.0.1.

There are 70 fighters and counting in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Choosing which character to play can be daunting, even if you haven’t spent the time to unlock the vast majority of them. If Santa left you a copy for Christmas, or you picked the game up as a New Year’s gift to yourself, it’s time to decide who to learn. To make that task just a bit easier, we’ve put together a quick amalgamated list of characters and listed them from most-to-least preferred.

Before scrolling down, it’s important to remember that top-tier characters aren’t necessarily the “best”. The “best” is purely subjective, and your favorite fighter might even be ranked low on our list. That doesn’t make the character bad, it just means that they’re harder to learn. The “best” characters are simply easy heroes to play with effectively. There are plenty of disagreements in the community about what truly constitutes the “best” character, so I’m just going to reiterate that the list below is simply a suggested order. Thanks to the changing nature of on-going video games, this list could change drastically in the coming months.

Choosing the best fighters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is an inexact science. Some of the “low tier” characters might be your favorites, and as new strategies are uncovered, characters can quickly move up / down these very subjective ranks. Don’t take the list as gospel, and expect the meta game to evolve even as patches change these characters in the not-so-distant future.

This tier list is compromised of three primary sources — Pro Player ZeRo, Pro Player Leffen, and my own experience with the game. For a deeper explanation on each character, check out the videos linked above. Those guys are pro’s, so they know a little bit about what they’re talking about.

7.0 Ssbu Tier List

It’s nice to see how the Nintendo fighting changes over time - players get new characters and the existing ones become better balanced. After each big patch, the situation in fights of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate becomes different. Someone gets new powers. Someone becomes a bit weaker.
