brawl tier list v2.0

everything is quoted by marc and Zylar at smashboards

Below you’ll find the second official SBR-B Brawl tier list. The previous tier list can be found here:
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=192028

A
tier list is an ordered list of the characters based on their
competitive value in the current metagame. It basically shows which
characters are currently doing well in tournaments. Note that player
skill is more important than character choice and match ups can
overcome tier differences, but at an equal player level a bottom tier
character will usually have a very tough time against a top tier
character. This list will probably change over time, as Brawl is still
relatively young and the Melee tiers were debated until the very end.
So don’t give up on your character just yet, maybe you’re the one to
make a difference!

The list was created by the SBR-B after much
heated discussion. For the votes, we had members place the characters
in groups from 1 to 15 (15 being the highest) and took the average
score for each character. The split was decided by looking at the gaps.
As the person supervising it, I’d like to thank all SBR-B members who
contributed.

The divisions were placed so that:

1. Gaps between tiers were relatively large, and
2. The spread within tiers was relatively small.

The
particular number of tiers isn't special--that's just how the votes
ended up. The majority of us believed that using a smaller number of
tiers would be misleading, given the results.

Expect the next tier list on June 5th.

Is G the highest Tier?
