Got bored and made a graph of how I view every character's strength versus their consistency. 'Consistency' was measured in terms of:
-
How easy their gameplan is to execute in practice
-
How much their gameplan relies on their opponents messing up or having low matchup experience
-
How many unusually bad matchups they have compared to their theoretical strength level
-
How many inconsistent hitboxes they have, where opponents fall out of your moves
As an example, Falco was deemed to be Slightly Consistent because, while he has several iffy smash hitboxes, his combos are very simple and effective, and his gameplan is both similar and effective against most of the cast.
The graph got...kinda crowded but I did my best to make every icon stand out lmao.
