The Smash 4 back room just formed recently, so we'll get an official one eventually.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerI think that people are preemptively calling Roy overrated, that people aren't giving Greninja enough credit (though Full Moon would know better than me), and that there's a bigger gap between Pit and Dark Pit.
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeIke's gotten a lot better lately. Anyway, Japanese tier lists are so weird, they are pretty different from Western ones.
For the record, I think Roy is a mite overrated, but he could do well if someone actually mained him.
The concept of an "official" tier list is kind of weird to me. I don't think "official" is the right word you'd use, rather "widely agreed upon."
But maybe I'm toasty. "Official" sounds like Nintendo would come down, nod their head, and give it the stamp of approval. Or as if there's some political Smash Council that legislates what the official tier list would be, wearing hooded cloaks ominously around torches.
I'm pretty sure the concept of Law having limits was a translation error. -Wanderlustwarrior
The latter's pretty much what the Back Rooms are; a council of the widely knowledgable about the metagame, discussing viability and rules without outside influence.
Yes, they are horribly prone to corruption.

"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerTo think that tweets are more important than press releases nowadays. World's gone mad, I tells ya.
How many of you have 100%ed singleplayer? I'm still working on it. Some of these challenges are just unfair. At least I beat Classic with everyone. Still haven't beaten it above intensity 7.5 though. Still need to beat All Star with like fifteen characters, it's getting rather tedious. At least I managed to get the "survive for 1 minute in Cruel Smash as Luigi" challenge done this week as well as some hard Events.
"No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" ~ Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic ColoursI've been babysitting Smash Tour in the background for days on end, and yet I still don't even have half of the roster's custom movesets finished. (Sigh)
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerLet's see;
- Completed:
- Mario
- Peach
- Yoshi
- Diddy Kong
- Mr. Game & Watch
- Little Mac
- Sheik
- Toon Link
- Zero Suit Samus
- Palutena (of course)
- Ike
- Fox
- Falco
- Lucario
- Charizard
- Villager
- Olimar
- Dr. Mario
- Dark Pit
- Mega Man
- Sonic
I intend to have the first two custom slots of every character to be 2222 and 3333 respectively so I can play with/experiment with custom moves without having to worry about tediously putting together a build. They'll be saved with the costumes used in Smash Tour.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerOh right, custom moves exist. I still need a bunch of those.
"No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" ~ Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic ColoursI'm saving my golden hammers, too.
I want the custom moves for gameplay reasons, and that challenge is a good marker for when that's done.

Damn, I really want an official tier list released because I'm not agreeing with any of these.
