(+) Yeah! (+)

start dropping suggestions for future topics, put them in spoilers though so we don't get people thinking too early, this is supposed to be kneejerk reactions.

these topics do not close when they are done so if you want to go argue over the results feel free to bump old topics and increase my brand recognition: https://bit.ly/YFTB8

Bowser Jr

---

my first thought was Nana followed by Corrin

maybe the Miis or Dark Pit would be worse than Corrin but idk how Nana could be anything more than turbofodder

---

Nana.

But it's probably one of the Miis.

---

Corrin

---

pikmin


---

allen i need you to bring back 3-ways and put the mii fighters in a poll

would Gunner win cuz of TJF

---

Terry Bogard. The actual answer is probably one of the Koopalings, but Terry was my first thought.

---

R.O.B.

I forgot that Popo and Nana have separate identities, technically.

---

Popo

---

little mac

---

Lucas

---

Nana

Edit: I just checked the '08 x-stats, and Nana finished ahead of Olimar and Lucas. Weird.
---

Little Mac is trash. He is the worst character in the game by far

Alph

---

@SBAllen if I nominated ROB from Gyromite next contest would it count

---

Pichu

Which may not be true, but I would say it's pretty far down there.

---

Immediately thought Pichu too, unless it got buffed I thought he was super shit.

Lucas was in a match with Kirby, so that didn't help him. I forget what Olimar did, but he wasn't as bad when he came back in 2013.

Alph

o fuck this may be the right answer

---

Alph wasn't even popular enough to get a proper clone in the game, so you could be right.

---

Pichu

---

Pac-Man

Not knowing anything about the roster really

---

@Leonhart4 do you wanna rank the smash roster based on contest strength

---

Kirby

Because I wasn't thinking of contest strength and my mind went to Melee instead of Ultimate.

same. this one really isn't set up well to get people to think of contest strength. should be like "least popular" if that's what was intended.

---

Lucas

---

Ganondorf

---

Dark Pit

No one cares about him in Smash AND no one cares bout Uprising on this site! It's a win-win of futility!

Good theme music though.

Byleth

mac

Mii B/F/G

Ganondorf

In a just world this would be true

---

Olimar, because I thought of canon strength rather than contest strength.
---

Isabelle because I also thought of canon strength and forgot about Olimar.

---

Byleth, though I don't think that's actually the answer

Alph or Dark Pit sounds about right

---

Miis

---

There's so many great answers but I'm gonna say

Whoever they add as the Arms Fighter

I would vote for the Miis just so we could pics of them wearing a Zero costume or some shit and crushing the competition.

---

Alph

---

Pichu

---

Corrin

---

Ness, for some reason

Also would people be interested in Best Box Art? Could actually be fun

Seems like a fun idea to me.

---

Pichu, he got a lot stronger in Ultimate but whatever

actual answer would probably be like Sheik or someone else who had their attack power nerfed into the ground

I was thinking of doing this but work just got very very busy right as BFVQE wrapped up so I don't know when I'll be able to now if you want dibs

if nobody does it I will do it probably in like August or September

The Miis

---

Cloud.

Jesus christ.

Pichu was considered Top Tier in Ultimate on release until it got nerfed to hell.

No idea where it stands now.
