The Knee: Wrong. Metaknight is not the best by any means whatsoever, and no there is no way they will ban him from competitive scenes. Snake is his peer in what is called S-Tier. The two of them stand above everyone else, because of tourney results, they ARE NOT TIERS PEOPLE!! There is no official tier set to date, so please do not say that so and so is top tier. A tier has not yet been decided. The only "tier" if I must, that we can base off of is the recent results of tournament winners, the majority of them Snake and Metaknight players. For example, Peach was recently up'd from a D "tier" to B because of one player winning a few tournaments around his area. Just because this one player plays Peach, she has received notice of other local players, making this game waaaay more balanced than Melee, where the only two characters worth noting were Falco and Fox. They completely destroy anyone below them in tiers, and have the closest matches in terms of who delivers the killing blow for the win.
As a note to all, there will be no banning of any character whatsoever. All the results of wins will eventually become tiers, but a tier is nothing more than a guideline. I have no difficulty beating a "pro" Snake with my Peach. And yes, pros do exist in this game. What you may consider is not pro, may be a completely different aspect in some else's eyes. You say there are no pros in Brawl it is because this game is still fairly new to the age of competitive gaming. It will obtain it's pros in due time, after all, Melee was not born with tiers, just as Brawl will not be either. I intend on becoming a pro player if I can. Do not label this game as a "fail" until a few years into the games existence. It sounds to me like perhaps this entire thread was just a misconception or a huge and very misguided assumption that because this game is still fairly new with no guidelines that it's not a good competitive game. Give it time.
Here:
If you think this is a tier list, you are a fool.
This is merely an interpretation of tournament results, organized into ranks. Your opinions don't matter when it comes to character placement, only tournament placings do.

S: Snake
A: Wario, Falco, King Dedede, Mr. Game & Watch
B: (Marth, Lucario), (ROB, Diddy Kong), (Kirby, Pikachu, Peach)
C: Olimar, (Wolf, Pit), Donkey Kong
D: (Ice Climbers, Pokémon Trainer), Zelda/Sheik, (Zero Suit Samus, Mario, Fox, Luigi, Toon Link)
E: (Zelda, Bowser, Yoshi, Ike, Link), (Samus, Ness), (Lucas, Jigglypuff, Sheik), (Ganondorf, Sonic), Captain Falcon
A direct result from a site updated on a daily basis. As you see, this is not a tier list. Right now, Metaknight is in a state of debate, which is why he is * not S.
*=Debateable
S=Uber
A=Overused
B=Standard
C=Borderline
D=Underused
E=Never Used
This is again not set in stone. This site is basing "tiers" off of tournament results until a actual tier can be decided. Just thought I'd share this with all.
