early roster impressions (unordered within tiers, maybe missing a few in solid, like half the cast wasn't even ranked because this is about gauging "the best" early)
-this might be the first game since 64 where Yoshi is a high tier contender
-Pichu's actually good lol why
-Most Sm4sh high/top tiers are still good after tweaks
-Roy/Chrom really do appear to be good, but I expect "corrections" to happen and for them to eventually drop pretty rapidly
-Best heavy is either DK or Rool. Ridley has the most developmental potential out of any heavy (he has really good tools)
-Ness is doing better than "solid" right now but it's the same kind of stuff that happened early in sm4sh where he's good in advantage but really exploitable, and he'll start getting a lot worse like in sm4sh when people learn to exploit him harder
-peach is pretty scary but sword users will keep her in check
-I think Jr. is the worst character in the game at the moment
K. Rool should definitely be in "the best" category. He seems to not only be the best heavy, his kit is honestly ridiculous. He's not broken but he's damn good.
For real. Top tier recovery, two projectiles, two bury moves, multiple spikes, and a counter. Not to mention super armor out the ass.
His only downsides are his gold plate can break resulting in a shield break and he's a heavy so more area to hit, but all heavys deal with that. ---
