Top Ten Worst Super Smash Bros. Melee Characters

The Top Ten

  1. Pichu

    Pichu is an Electric-type Baby Pokémon introduced in Generation II. It evolves into Pikachu when it reaches a high level of friendship. Pichu belongs to the Undiscovered Egg Group and is No. 172 in the Pokédex. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Pichu was often seen as a joke character due to its weak stats... read more

    He's a fail of a character, because he hurts himself. And why are Peach, Dr. Mario, Ice Climbers, and Jigglypuff here? Have you guys ever seen the official tier list? Jigglypuff, is the 3rd best character, and Peach, Doc, and Ice Climbers are up there. Ice Climbers are hard to get used to but they're amazing. Also, Pikachu is not amazing in every smash game. He's the best character in the original (not my words, the words of all the pros that made the tier list), and he's really good in Brawl. In Melee he's the worst he's ever been, although still pretty decent. He's not bad, but not good. Roy should be up here too. He has all the disadvantages of Marth and non of the advantages.

  2. Peach

    Princess Peach is a major character in the Mario Bros. franchise. She is the lead female character in the series. She is usually the character who needs to be rescued in most Mario games, but she has also appeared as a playable character in main-series Mario games, including Super Mario 3D World, Super... read more

    I would love for daisy to replace peach because her final smash can bloom flowers everywhere and then the players will get stuck and when they are stuck there health will get bad then when it's over she can hit them out unlike peaches stupid smash were it only helps the health and even when you get it when the characters wake up they just take peaches food from her final smash so I would love daisy to be in there

    Whoever said the thing about the final smash and replacing with daisy I have something to say. THIS IS MELEE NOT BRAWL! And my opinion on peach, she was pretty good in melee.

  3. Ice Climbers

    This at #2 blows my mind. If popo gets a grab, then you're done for, because of the ice climbers' wobbling technique, which allows you to build up damage infinitely without any chance of your opponent escaping. This alone turns them into a good, but not fantastic, character.

    List creator, just no. have you even played super smash bros melee?

    You are completely wrong even with pichu being number 1# please refrain from making any smash bros lists in the future because you have literally no idea what the heck you doing.

  4. Dr. Mario

    Dr. Mario is the persona Mario adopts in the Dr. Mario video game series. In this role, Mario wears a lab coat, a head mirror, and a stethoscope. He first appeared as Dr. Mario in the 1990 puzzle game of the same name.

    I just read this article, on how the director almost kills himself overthinking super smash bros. Characters. And then we get Dr. Mario... Sorry I don't buy it

    DR Mario DOES NOT SUCK! TRUST ME I USE TO THINK HE SUCKS BUT HE doesn't HE IS A VERY GOOD CHARACTER AND HE IS NOT SLOWER THAN Mario THEY ARE THE SAME SPEED PLUS DR Mario IS A LOT STRONGER AND I LIKE HOW HIS DOWN SMASH KNOCK THEM UP HIGH. IF YOU CAN MASTER DR Mario HE IS A VERY GREAT CHARACTER.

  5. Jigglypuff

    Jigglypuff, known in Japan as Purin, is a round, pink character recognized for its ability to sing lullabies that put others to sleep. Jigglypuff has appeared in various games, anime episodes, and Super Smash Bros. titles.

    Among more serious and technical players, Jigglypuff is very widely known to be the 5th best character in the game. That means Jigglypuff is better than 4/5 of the entire game's cast (and has an insanely good matchup against Fox, the #1 character). That's impressive! This is due to Jigglypuff having some of the best aerials in the game that can easily string into each other, a great approach, being easy to learn, and having REST. Rest, a very quick attack with the strength of Ganondorf's Warlock Punch. Hard to hit with, you say? Git good

    Come on guys. What were you thinking. Nintendo absolutely ruined Jigglypuff by reducing the area his rest moves hits. Seriously, the kill combo was ruined because they stuffed up his rest.

    At least he still has his good aerial fighting skills. But a lot better in N64.

  6. Young Link

    Young Link is the protagonist in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, a video game developed by Nintendo. Unlike his older self, Young Link is a child who is propelled into a quest to save the world of Termina from an impending moonfall.... read more

    Just because he is a link clone doesn't mean he is bad

    He's just link, but smaller. What makes him so great? Nothing.

  7. Mewtwo

    Mewtwo is a Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon. Designed by Ken Sugimori, it first appeared in Pokémon Red and Blue in 1996.

    Created by Dr. Fuji through gene splicing to clone Mew, Mewtwo is known in game lore as one of the most powerful Pokémon. In later games, it can undergo Mega Evolution into... read more

    Mewtwo is kinda difficult to use. His speed is fairly average and has really good jumping.

    But the problem is that his moves doesn't give a lot of damage.

    Cause of that, I wasn't able to play Crazy Hand on Classic Mode even though I didn't use a continue and I was playing on Normal.

    Mewtwo is the best character of all time so whoever said he sucks they suck

    He might be a good Christian role model, but he still sucks in Melee!

  8. Ness

    Ness is a male video game character who made his first appearance in the 1995 Super Nintendo Entertainment System game EarthBound, known in Japan as Mother 2. He is the main protagonist of the game and uses psychic abilities in battle. Ness later became a recurring playable character in the Super Smash... read more

    I love Ness as a character, it's just he has the worst aerial recovery in the game. Doesn't help that his home stages don't favor his recovery method either. It's either "git good" at aiming PK Thunder, or air dodge and wish for the best.

    Ness is a young boy who's first appearence was in EarthBound, AKA Mother 2. He lives next door to a mischievous boy named Porky Minch, whom he later saved a boy named Lucas from in another Mother game.

    I like Ness why is on this list?

    What's the point about ness? His OP attack is PK plasma thingy. His PK fire traps players. His charge attack is a home run bat and it has great knock back. His throwing attack has strong knock back. But his PK thumber is for advanced players. He is not that bad

  9. Kirby

    Kirby is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Kirby series of video games, owned by Nintendo and developed by HAL Laboratory. His first appearance was in Kirby's Dream Land, released in 1992 for the Game Boy. The pink, spherical hero is known for his ability to inhale enemies and copy their... read more

    At high-level play, kirby is an awful character. He has a horrible approach, and his projectile and grabs are both bad. His one useful tequnique is his fence of pain, a less effective version of jigglypuff's wall of pain, which is pretty useful for preventing an enemy's recovery.

    Peach and Zelda shouldn't be up there they shouldn't be on the list! Kirby is one of the worst melee characters not the worst but close!

    I love Kirby as a character, but lets face it, he's horrible in this game. My analysis on Kirby is that he is great SSB4, good in SSBB and SSB4, and useless in melee. This is just his lowpoint, and he gets better in future smash games.

  10. Mr. Game & Watch

    Mr. Game & Watch is a 2D silhouette character created by Nintendo. He represents an amalgamation of characters from the Game & Watch handheld consoles. The character was introduced in the Super Smash Bros. series and serves as a tribute to Nintendo's early handheld games.

    He is the most dumbest character ever invented along with duck hunt dog, he is so pointless he is just a shadow with boring attacks

    Mr game and watch is a good character. You just have to know how to use him.

    Mr. game & watch is the worst character in the game right next to olimar and toon link

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Nana (Ice Climber)

  12. ?

    King Dedede

    King Dedede is a fictional character and the primary antagonist in Nintendo and HAL Laboratory's Kirby video game series. He is typically portrayed as a rival to Kirby, though his role varies between games. King Dedede is recognizable for his hammer weapon and royal attire.

    13. The Contenders

  13. Yoshi

    Yoshi, once romanized as Yossy, is a fictional anthropomorphic dinosaur featured in video games published by Nintendo. He often appears as a sidekick and helper to Mario, playing key roles in many of Nintendo's most popular titles. Yoshi is especially well known for his appearances in the Yoshi's Island... read more

    What is wrong with you people? Yoshi is great. I don't care what the tier list thinks.

    Yoshi is the 5th worst character next to toon link olimar and Mr. game & watch

    He gets more sudden deaths then about anyone.

  14. Donkey Kong

    Donkey Kong is an arcade game released by Nintendo in 1981. It is an early example of the platform game genre, as the gameplay focuses on maneuvering the main character across a series of platforms while dodging and jumping over obstacles. The game marked the debut of both Donkey Kong and Mario (originally... read more

    Donkey kong is just like Bowser he's all about brutal force

    What no he super punch is great he's not bad

  15. Pikachu

    Pikachu (Japanese: ピカチュウ) is a species of Pokémon that appears in video games, animated television shows and movies, trading card games, and comic books licensed by The Pokémon Company. It is the mascot of the Pokémon franchise and is widely considered the most iconic Pokémon. Pikachu is well known for... read more

    Pikachu is the 8th best character ever from 10- 1:falco fox pikachu pit lucario ness lucas kirby greninja and mew two

    PIKACHU IS THE WORST CHARACTER IN THE WHOLE GAME! IN EVENT 48: PIKACHU AND PICHU, HE IS THE CHEAPEST CHARACTER IN THE ENTIRE GAME! SO YEAH! PIKACHU SUCKS!

    I only vote because you can't spell pikachu its pikachu you tool

  16. Falco

    Falco is the 10th best character

  17. Master Hand

    Dude Master Hand is not hot but he is a awesome hand. Master Hand is genderless

    Master hand is playable as a glitch.

  18. Link

    Link refers to several different incarnations of the same protagonist in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series. Each incarnation of Link is typically chosen by the gods to protect the land of Hyrule from evil forces, often wielding the Master Sword and bearing the Triforce of Courage. His main goal is... read more

    Not necessarily a bad character, but just boring to play as.

    Link shouldn't be here. He's awesome. He's my main character.

    Links not that good in this game

  19. Bowser

    Bowser is the main antagonist of the Mario Bros. franchise. From kidnapping Princess Peach to disrupting games in the Mario Party spinoff series, this king of the Koopas has become a recurring enemy in the series. He first appeared in the 1985 video game Super Mario Bros., in which he kidnapped Princess... read more

    I wanted him to have a British accent, not a hyper-masculine deep voice.

    Bowser is just like donkey kong all about brutal force

    You wanted Bowser to have a British accent? SINCE WHEN DID Bowser EVER HAVE A BRITISH ACCENT?

  20. Roy

    Roy shoots bullets so whoever put this roy here they are STUPID

  21. Zelda/Sheik

    I like sheiks look and moves better

  22. Diddy

  23. Fox

    Worst character in the entire series, got smash fans to hate every other game in the series that isn't melee, the only playable character in melee is Fox according to many people, fox is completely unbalanced and deserve to be ranked number one as the worst smash Bros character

    Melee Fox is worse then Brawl Ganon, 64 Luigi, 4 Jigglypuff, and Melee Kirby combined

    LOL

    Something about him just doesn't seem interesting

  24. Wario

    Wario is a character in Nintendo's Mario series who was originally designed as an antagonist to Mario. His motives are driven by greed, and he will often side with whoever offers him the greatest reward. Although typically portrayed as selfish and mischievous, Wario has become a central figure in his... read more

    Can't do anything but Peach isn't even worse! If teen boys play the game why are Wario and Peach on? They are children's characters!

    Wario is the worst character by far. All he does is stand still, like a trophy.

    He's a fat hippy who likes money. AKA NO

  25. Zelda

    Princess Zelda is a fictional character in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda video game series, created by Shigeru Miyamoto and introduced in its original entry in 1986. She is typically portrayed as a member of the Hyrule royal family and often possesses magical abilities or wisdom. Zelda plays a central... read more

    Zelda's alright I don't hate her but not one of my main characters

  26. Marth

He is a Lord-class protagonist featured in the first and third games of the series, Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. He... read more

    Bland, cheap, and nowhere as likeable as Link.

    Whoever Says Marth sucks can die in a fire.

    Marth is extremely overrated

  27. Crazy Hand

    Why did they put crazy hand in the game and giga Bowser are you can do is really die from them they should take crazy hand out I don't care about giga Bowser
