HIgh (B)

Ken

Sonic

Ness

Ike

Pichu

Bowser

Min Min

Ike

Instead of being one dimensional, he can instead try down tilt to use more combos and aether as a kill power instead of up aerial.

Min Min

With the new character, Min Min, has suprising amount of disjoints, combos, and kill power. Despite that she has flaws, her recovery does suck and the endlag of her move can leave her wide open which is why she deserves her sport in high tier.

Falco

Falco gained buff which are significant than you think. Illusion is better, up smash can now connect better reliable, and down tilt can now combo better.

Wii Fit Trainer

Luigi

Toon Link

Sheik

Lucas

Marth

Despite his tipper buffs, it wan't signifacant enough to call as a major buff to him.

Captain Falcon

Captain Falcon got buffed, indicating that his combo is much better, and kill power. With his buffs, it's likely to be more bettwer into the metagame.

Duck Hunt

Meta Knight

Zelda

Simon

Pit

Bayonetta

With Bayo, her buffs were major in a way that she can now be more efficent in tournaments, reliaing more kill power and combo has her gameplay improved.

Villager

Villager has much better tools after their buffs. More kill power, more combos made Villager more buffed.

Lucario

Mii Fighter (Brawler)

Incineroar

Corrin

Was considered a low tier turned into a character that now has improved. Corrin buffs were signifanct enough to help them improve more into tournaments.

Ridley

By far isn't major at all but still deserves a spot for Ridley...

Incineroar

Incineroar new kill power made him somewhat stronger. He still has flaws but he's more likely to become improved.

Isabelle

King K Rool

Super smash bros ultimate tier list 8.0

Kirby

Dr. Mario

Bowser Jr.

Isabelle

Despite her buffs, it wasn't signiacant enough. Unlike Villager, she still have more kill power and combo but that isn't important at all.

King Dedede

With King Dedede buffed, he is somewhat likely to be improved, but his tier is still debatable.

Little Mac

Ganondorf

With more and more character buffed, Ganon strengths might have more flaws to any character, even taking a spot as the worst character than Little Mac.

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.
