Other characters have tier lists, why not Zelda? We could use some activity around here anyways.

So, sitting around bored, I decided to throw a tier list of us Zelda users together. How you place on the list will depend on a few categories. Some of those include:

skill, contributions, activity, placings in offline tournaments and activities, etc (not necessarily in that order).

Requirements to be Added
Too many people are getting placed on the tier list and then they suddenly die. I say enough of that. From now on, if you wish to be added to the tier list, you must link me to some recent results of events you participated in and/or be active here on the boards. We don't need any inactive users on this list. If you are only going to do one of the things mentioned, you will have to ask to be placed on the list, and wait an additional month before being added onto the list. This will tell me that you really are interested on being placed on this list.

In order to keep this as accurate as possible, this will be updated on a monthly basis. So, if you don't like where you currently stand, or feel that you should be up higher, show some proof that backs up your claim. Also, don't ask to get raised or spam my page or this thread with complains about where you are. Instead, show me proof to back your claim, and I'll change you when the next update comes. Anyways, without further ado, here's the very first Zelda tier list in existence (in modern days anyways, cause I'm pretty sure SWF had one a while back). Also, please remember to read the tier list note, as it gets updated as the actual list does.

Tier List Note (as of 1/4/11)
It's about time this thing gets updated huh? Well, as promised, here's the new tier list for the beginning of 2011! The list drastically shrank from the previous time, but that's because I took off all the random Zeldas. This'll probably be the last time the tier list is updated in this manner; expect some changes coming soon! Kate got the most awards this time around. Congratulations Kate! You're walking out of here with four additional awards! Awesome job! A bunch of new awards have been added as well, so make sure you nominate people for the spots!

Legends of Zelda
There are a few ex-Zelda users whom I feel deserve to be remembered for things they have done. The following Zelda users are great Zeldas who are no longer with us (they don't play anymore or they're highly inactive):

NinjaLink
RyokoYaksha
Nakayorz
Kyou
Maos

You guys won't be forgotten!



Next Update: TBA

I should be in the "Should stop abusing Ftilt" tier.

Pretty sure we're scheduled for another burst of activity soon, anyway.

Yeah, but I figured I'd go ahead and make it ahead of schedule.
Anyways, a little off topic.

Wait, I am the ***** at the very end?

The whole list is up for debate (though I'm pretty sure the upper tiers won't be changing). So you're not technically at the very end. Also, I'm sure I missed people who would go further down.

lul, I was asking if I'm "Rain" since that was my old tag. >_>

Oh, whoops, yeah, that'd be you then. I'll change it.

woo, C-tier.

Although I think 3x should be higher.
Me and 2link just had some matches the other day too, only got one of them though since my memory was running out.

Edit: I'm pretty sure Ruler plays Zelda too but I have no idea how well

Kate is right about Ruler... I've played him, he has a pretty good Zelda. :3

I like being at the bottom considering I barely use Zelda. lol.

Yeah, I'm aware that I forgot Ruler. He'll be added the next time I update.

Cool, I'm top C tier!

...But a real Hero wouldn't settle for just C!

Hmm, I think K should be above me. She has much better ability with lightning kicks and I don't play Zelda as often since I refrain from using her online nowadays. I'm flattered by my placement either way D:

Hey cool tier list.  I have my own category.  Sweet!

LOL.

I wouldn't judge from playing ffas, Linkz =P

Definitely not accurate.

Lol. Well, we'll see.


Well well, if it isn't DarkM himself ._.
And of course, you've been repping Zelda longer than anyone else, and you're definitely pro. ;D
You're not on AIB often at all, how'd you end up here? ._.
Your magical abilities are amazing, lol.


The whole list is up for debate Mocha, you're not technically there just yet.


Again, the list is up for debate. How about sharing why it's not, instead of just stating something pointless that I even pointed out in the OP?

hmmm well idk no ones seen me play in a while so i guess some one should play me and yeah i thnk i should be higher ._.

I'm not bottom tier even if I barely use Zelda lol.
