it's funny because when the game came out, there were legit tier lists from pros that had the belmonts as top or high tier. now they're pretty solidly mid. That makes it all the more impressive at how good Simon is with them.

it's all good, welcome aboard. we're just having fun

A lot of characters were overrated from the get go. I remember Leffen putting Falco as best in game when the game first came out as well as other oddities like Game and Watch being a low tier or Mario a mid tier. The Belmonts were for sure up there because people still didn't know how to deal with their projectile wall. Nowadays the meta is more solid, we know more or less know who is top tier but there's still some hold overs whether game and watch and ROB fit the top tier mold. There's also other oddities like Pichu's place in the meta with some top players ranking the character mid tier or below and there being some backlash from the reddit and twitter crowd.
