SSBB tier list
This is the first version of the tier list for Brawl. It was released on September 01, 2008, but like the other versions, is subject to change at any time.

30. Pokémon Trainer
31. Samus
32. Yoshi
33. Sonic
34. Jigglypuff
35. Ganondorf
36. Link
37. Captain Falcon
For anyone who's interested, here is a list of ranking for characters for the various Smash games. I think that the SSB list is incredibly accurate (except that I would have ranked Link in the middle at position 9.). I didn't play Melee, so I have no opinion there, but in Brawl I see a lot of surprises. Meta Knight? Really?? He has like no knock-off attacks! And Kirby and Ike seem too low.
Anywho, for those interested, discuss!

Hm, that's strange. I've always been F***ING AMAZING pretty good with Ganondorf.
Favourites from SSBM would be: Ganondorf and C. Falcon
Favourites from SSBB would be : Ganondorf and Pit (actually came 6th in a tournament for a 40inch TV with Pit as my character, it was out of 40 people too, ;)yeah baby!)

There's nothing crappier than a whole tournament consisting of nothing but Fox and Falcons. >>

I love how all the characters I use in SSBB are in low tier (Lucas, Pokemon Trainer, Link.)
Lucas is by far my favorite, I usually have no problem playing with him, I'm pretty good if I do say so myself.

I like Pit, Sonic, Diddy Kong and Ike the best in Brawl. (Pit gets +100 Bias Points because I loved Kid Icarus so much)

I fight with Zelda. And you better believe I play Zelda in Princess form. Sheik is overrated! People like to make fun of me playing as Zelda. I was much better with Roy honestly and his removal makes my blood boil. BUT.
Tiers are definately for wankers. In everything from Pokemon to Smash Brothers...
The variety of the characters is one of the things I like about the game. I'd be damned if I'm going to play as the same set of characters just so I can learn top tier characters. I select random unless there's someone in particular I want to play as and even then its not for more than a few rounds.

I Am Error.
I always wondered if Error was an error, or if the line was just translated horribly. I always laugh at it though.

He can be used effectively... and it's that type of thinking that created tiers in the first place!
I agree with asaleri. Tiers are for queers.
Just because you suck with a character
doesn't mean that everyone else does.
I play with samus and link and they are
low characters.

My brother is a murderer with Yoshi.
He could beat all of Event modes tough challanges
with Yoshi, including Giga Bowser.

Mr. Game & Watch is my number one guy, but I can hold my own with any character in Brawl. If you think a character is useless, then you're probably not using them correctly!
Take Sonic, for example. He's really, really, really fast, the fastest runner in the cast. But, all his attacks are pretty weak and have very little knockback. On top of that, he's not that heavy, so he gets knocked out at lower percents. He's difficult to win with...unless you use his speed to your advantage. You can run circles around you opponents and slowly wear them down, until even Sonic's pitiful knockback would KO them. It's all about strategy!
Oh, also...

I'd love to see a Yoshi pro ... I mean I never put down any character, but I just can't get used to Yoshi
