The DEFINITIVE Smash Bros. Canonical Power Tier List

thanks 5 watchin!1! This was a project done entirely on my own. Editing, research, cutting out stupid pictures for a whiteboard - all your boy. So I totally expect that I overlooked characters here. I mostly tried to order things but within sub tiers I think there's a lot of debate. If you see any contradictions, tell me! I put on a character in the video but I genuinely have no horse in this race and was trying my best here. I will do a followup stream going over comments and my errors in January reading comments and arguing my points.

i love how the top 6 are a hedgehog, a kid, a teenager, a weird guy with a sword, a weird lady with guns and a pink ball

I love how Dr. Mario stays on the side the whole time as if he's going to be in S tier but then just never gets placed

Kirby is literally a lovecraftian god of positive energy. That's not even an exaggeration. His inside is a pocket dimension.

And let's not forget that Kirby is still just an infant when he does all his stuff. Adult Kirby must be the most terrifying thing ever

I always love watching people try to understand children’s game characters in a canon sense. Alax is going crazy over a Piranha Plant’s pipe for example, and the most thought Miyamoto put into it was “Yeah that looks funny. I’m gonna include that”

One of my favorite things in any game ever to this day is how if you wait on the “The End” screen in Kid Icarus Uprising, Hades comes back and is like “Wow, I can’t believe Pit killed me, the god of the underworld, that means he must be the strongest Nintendo character”. They know full well that this is the kind of thing we do in our spare time.

11:02 Fun fact; The arms are actually weapons that they can take on and off. What happens to their actual arms when they put the weapon arms on, I have no idea. But they can take them on and off and continue having regular people arms, so yeah.

Eldrich threats are often some life-changing final boss in most stories, while in Popstar it's just another Tuesday.

god i love being a kirby fan I can just sit through this hour long video and be like "I know how this ends"

Fun fact about a Kirby ability: In Forgotten Land, they get Time Crash, an evolved version of Crash. This allows them to concentrate so much energy into a single point that time just stops working. Aka, they brute force their way into stopping time. Edit: Another Fun Fact about another ability because why not: Mike is an ability whose effect I can only describe as memetic. Most people think that it just allows Kirby to sing so loudly that it creates a shockwave, but what's actually happening is that they sing SO BADLY that anyone who hears it laughs to the point of exploding. Aka, it's audible Joker Venom that blows you up for good measure. Keep that image in your head next time you use Mike.

The fact that you had a ganondorf amiibo and a doki doki character talk to each other really showed how much this hurt you mentally lmfao great vid

What an unhinged introduction to this channel

Little Mac DID also defeat Donkey Kong in a boxing match. Also it's worth noting that aside from Lucario and Mewtwo, all the other pokemon characters come out of a pokeball in their intro, implying that they are pokemon with trainers, rather than wild pokemon.

Samus' Power Suit is pretty much 'technomagic' canonically. Magic actually exists in the Metroid universe, it's not just science fiction. Though magic in Metroid is generally something that's not well understood by most characters we see and Samus doesn't talk often enough to tell us what she knows about it. lol

"Goofy probably scales to Sephiroth" is not something I ever expected to hear. And specially, NOT expected to think "that makes sense".

il like 80% sure kirby holds back for sportsmanship like something in smash limits about everyone's power but kirby is just kinda above that hence why he is able to escape galeem

Villager can lift and handle 20 ton whale sharks with ease, man is critically underrated.

Small issue with Captain Falcon's placement: he isn't just from a game. He has an anime too, and from what I've heard that's where his most impressive feats are.

12:42 netherite ingots are crafted using 4 gold. even if netherite (which increases knockback resistance so it is probably heavier than gold) has no mass, this would still mean that 1 netherite block is four cubic meters of gold at least. A single cubic meter of gold weighs 19.32 metric tonnes, so multiplying that by 4 gives a single block of netherite's mass gets you 77.92 tonnes. Multiply that by 64, and 1 stack of Netherite Blocks is 4986.88 tonnes. The average container (barrel, small chest, shulker box, inventory) holds 27 stacks, so we multiply that by 27 to get a container MINIMUM weight of 134645.76 tonnes. This, again, excludes the (most likely) high weight of insanely strong fantasy materials. We choose a shulker box, and get enough to fill our inventory. Steve has 27 inventory slots, then another 10 for the hotbar and offhand. that is 37 slots, so multiplying our number by that gets us 4981893.12 tonnes... Not to mention that he can also wear restrictive armour, that weighs whatever 24 diamonds cost, as well as another 16 gold, or 17173+1/3 tonnes.... Add this to our previous number, and that is 4999066.45 tonnes, or just under 5 megatonnes! This is 5/6ths of the Great Pyramid of Giza, and steve can sprint faster than Usian Bolt with this weight strapped to his back. Assuming a full lap would be 6 rep, of 5/6ths of the pyramid (both what steve and an olympic athelete could probably sprint), as each 20m segment of 100m would equal out to be approximately similar amounts of lifting. So, he could bench (1 rep) 30 megatonnes on average. That is 3/5ths of the great wall of china. Without potions. TL;DR: Steve doesn't deserve Low C-Tier for being able to bench over half the great wall of china WITHOUT potions of strength.
