Meta Knight is 100% overpowered, and he is banned from some tournaments unless players promise not to spam the Mach Tornado move.
Should be number one by far in terms of pure overpoweredness. He literally causes damage to you by walking. With every single step he takes, no less. The entire screen shakes from the force of him walking.
One guy even said that Chuck Norris can blow up the moon in one stomp. He can even push the Earth using push-ups. His blood temperature is 98 degrees Celsius. And much, much more.
You can tell that he's so good at this game because he can take over all of the characters with his power and strength.
So overpowered, Smogon literally made a new tier for this guy, which is the highest tier. It got banned from even Uber. Yeah.
Honestly, now that Naganadel has been introduced, it's pretty fast to move Rayquaza to Ubers.

Ratchet is one of the protagonists of the Ratchet and Clank series developed by insomniac games as a playstation exclusive. Ratchet has always been a badass little rabbit. He is not a weak yuppie. He has a cool story. He earned his overpoweredness. He should be in Smash Bros and Rayman.

Kirby is stronger than Meta Knight in the games. Kirby has no business being this low.
PLEASE make Kirby a higher character. Chara sucks. All she does is press a button, while Kirby can crack a planet in half. He even beat one of the most dangerous and strongest Dragon Ball characters: Majin Buu.

Not fair, this guy is super OP in both Undertale and Glitchtale.
