About
Smash Ultimate Tier Lists refer to parodies of Tier Lists ranking the characters of Super Smash Brothers Ultimate by various qualities that often have nothing to do with their abilities as fighters.
Precursor
Prior to Super Smash Brothers Ultimate, similar parodies spread for other games in the Super Smash Brothers series such as Melee. For example, a tier list for Melee characters based on how well they're known outside of Smash appeared on Reddit on August 5th, 2016 (shown below, left). Another posted by Twitter user @_ClayPot used the Wii U roster to make a Who Says Fuck meme (shown below, right).
Origin
Smash Ultimate parody lists began appearing after the roster was announced in the June 12th, 2018 Everyone Is Here! Nintendo Direct. This was aided by a Tier List generator hosted on SSBWorld[1] that launched July 24th, 2018.[2]
Spread
Popular early examples include a tweet by @TheRealQNS who ranked the characters based on how well they'd be at babysitting, gaining over 2,500 retweets and 7,400 likes (shown below, left). Another by @OuendanL based on the film Monster House gained over 350 retweets and 790 likes (shown below, right).
On January 3rd, 2019, NintendoLife[3] covered the spread of the parodies. Popular variations covered there include a list based on how the characters would pay at the end of a date (shown below, left). Another judged the characters based on "roundness."
