Is smash 4 dlc a tier of its own?

[hecticmason]

I would like to know what people think about this. as of right now, all the dlc are unique and fun to play, (as they should be). but does anyone think they too good?? From ryus uptilt into true shoruken to bayonettas counter, I don't think I would be lying if i said dlc have very easy killing moves. and not only are they strong, but as of yet they have not received any type of nerfs, in the recent patches. thoughts??

No they are not in their own tier. While they may be good but when analyzing match ups, they aren't as good as you truly expect. Here is the list before the recent patch

 

[hecticmason]

true, and i would have taken that into account had it not been for the most recent patch. But i do understand your point.

@Marc I think this should be moved to the Smash Bros Forum

And also the DLC may have some great power but they aren't that strong to make a whole tier just for them. I think the DLC are balanced pretty evenly among the rest of the cast, and that a group of characters don't completely outplay another group of characters. Besides a lot of the things you think of as "OP" can easily be avoided

People who say this stuff about characters being "OP" really don't understand how the meta for competitive games develop.

Just leave things be for a while, this version of Smash hasn't even been out for very long, you can't determine everything about it so soon.

And as someone that doesn't play any of the DLC characters, I REALLY hope that none of them get nerfed, I hate it when people even mention nerfs, it shows that they're secretly wanting them, when in reality all you should be thinking about is how you can adapt, instead of waiting for some silly nerf of all the characters you don't like fighting to solve your problems for you.

Welcome to the pedia! Can't wait to see you around!
This is an interested welcome topic... But no I think dlc should be mixed in
