There's a New OFFICIAL Melee Tier List (First one since 2015!)

PGstats' first official tier list for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in over six years arrives with significant meta shifts and character reassessments. Hungrybox breaks down how the competitive landscape has evolved since the last ranking, examining which characters have risen through tournament results and which have fallen out of favor. The video explores how recent player performances—including Hungrybox's own Jigglypuff placements—have influenced the tier list standings, revealing how top players' success at majors directly shapes character viability assessments. Rather than simply presenting rankings, the analysis digs into why certain placements matter for the current metagame and what they signal about character strength in competitive play. Viewers get insight into how professional results and six years of accumulated matchup knowledge reshape the community's understanding of the roster. This ranking serves as a snapshot of where the competitive community stands on character viability heading forward.
