So since the final dlc is coming up, I decided to make predictions for where the two characters will be placed. Keep in mind that this isn't saying they will always be there, because we still do not know whether or not there will be more updates solely for gameplay purposes.

I predict Bayonetta as being high B or low A. I say this because while she does have a good combo game, it appears she doesn't have many approach options and not much of a neutral game. Her combos do take a lot of time to start up, and her landing lag increases the more loves you use, which will be heavily used against you. Bat within and witch time however, will be very good for racking up damage quickly.

Corrin on the other hand, look like she will be a tough character to rank. I'm saying SHE because I prefer to use the female alternates of characters rather than males. Anyway, corrin looks like she could be where Marth and Shulk are, near C or A. Corrin seems to be a character that requires heavy spacing game, and force the person to utilize her length to its full extent. Another problem Corrin may have is missing her pin move. As if you are to pin, miss, and be off stage, the opponent can either lead into a combo barrage or attempt a spike. However, that will also be good for baiting. Corrin seems to fit people that play like @DandelionTheDandyLion WFT. Space heavily and move in. Or you could play like my Roy, heavy attacks and quick kills. Her counter in FFA's is sure to throw everyone off. What do you think of this and where do you think these characters will be listed?

I agree with Bayonetta's placement. Corrin seems to like she would be Midtier. But we will have to see with how the competitive community players see/play them.
 
Corrin might be placed around B tier but really, he (that's right, HE) might be higher-up... Bayonetta will likely be placed around A, but all of the characters are pretty balanced in my opinion and everyone has some weakness.
 
Bayonetta seems like she could be high tier, but most of the combos would have to start off from either making a good read on the opponent or punishing their mistakes. She has no real safe approach option, but once she's in there she can do some good damage. Corrin seems like a midtier or higher placement character, not too sure about them. I would enjoy playing Corrin just for the massive range that he has on his moves.
 
Him... Corrin is definatly strange... very hard to rank (s)he. Bayonetta, however, I think will be number 15-20 on the tier list due to the lack of approach, high combo ability, but endlag that will be the end of her. Corrin is going to be one tough cookie, Although overall I see a mid tier character (On the high side) due to side B move making and breaking the character at the same time. None the less, (s)he still has the wonderful luxary of counter which everyone wants. On a side note, can someone explain Shulk's low placement? He seems mighty overpowered due to range+flexibility.
 
Corrin has range and okay attacks (And dat side B) I think he would be A- or B and bayonetta Has great combos and kill moves but her combos are hard to start because it's off of down b instead of a throw I think she would be A
