I don't have much competition either, but I once won against two human Sheiks in a 2-on-1 team battle as Ganondorf.

That's like two Hondas versus a Harley, no contest.

I read that four times and can't figure out if you're saying her matchup was very easy or very hard but I think fighting two Sheiks as Ganondorf would be a nightmare.

Seriously... super slow characters don't usually do that great against super fast characters unless you have absolutely perfect timing.

My point is sheik/Zelda is a flimsy speed/power character.

It's like combining a camera and a cellphone, all you get is a crappy camera and a crappy phone.

Dude, you must never have been to Japan. So be quiet about phones and cameras.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Shiek a "top-tier" character?!

So what!! It's entirely possible to beat a higher tier character with a lower tier one.

which begs the question: what determines a tier? even if it even exists.

this discussion reminds me of this comic

It's based on a 4chan meme.

People put CPUs one on one against each other to see which will win. That's all I know. They do not use free for all matches, and it's been tested many times.

Duh, I'm just saying what's with the smack-talk on Shiek when the best players count him among the best characters.

Yes, tiers are "made up" by players after extensive tournament play and debate.

People act like they just make it up out of their heads though. The tier list is based on every possible factor that can go into winning and losing with every character. With a game as already balanced as SSB, it wasn't easy to construct it.
