This is a topic to rate the contest strength of potential newcomers in the current contest environment.
I will pick the characters to rate and discuss for each day from user nominations - whoever the 3 most nominated characters are at that time. If there are more than 3 I will pick randomly. You can nominate any number of characters at any time, but you cannot nominate the same character twice. All characters who were present in the 2018 Character Battle will NOT be eligible. Otherwise you can nominate any character that has appeared in video games; even comic book characters. This will exclude real-life athletes who have only appeared in long running sports series, however I will accept those who have their own games such as Shaq. I will accept nominations for iconic gaming duos too, if both members of said duo are named in the title of a game (Banjo-Kazooie, Sam & Max Hit the Road, etc). Each day will have a separate topic, and nominations will carry over. As far as actually rating the character's contest strength; I ask that users rank a characters potential strength with one of the following qualifiers - LAW Fodder, Low Fodder, Mid Fodder, High Fodder, Fodder Line, Low Midcarder, Midcarder, High Midcarder, Near Elite, Elite, LAW Tier (capable of beating Link). I will average all the ratings given to a character to come up with their final ranking. I have included a highlighted entrant from Character Battle X on each tier of the strength rankings below, to provide a baseline for each. Note that LAW Fodder is meant to be a tier reserved for the weakest possible characters to put into a contest. A character will only be placed that if all posters for that day unanimously agree on the LAW Fodder rating. If any rating besides LAW Fodder is given, the character will not be eligible for the tier. All LAW Fodder ratings will then count as Low Fodder.

Chewbacca - Low midcarder. Just a bit weaker than Han seems right.
Meryl - Low fodder. Even weaker than Mei Ling. Dogmeat - Mid fodder. Eh. --- darkx Score: There goes bracket ... Copied to Clipboard!

Chewbacca: Fodder Line seems right for this iconic, well-liked secondary Star Wars character.
Meryl Silverburgh: I'm betting on Mid Fodder, just like Mei Ling. Dogmeat: agree with darkx. Fallout 76 has dragged the series' reputation through the mud, and no one cares about Dogmeat as a character, so it seems about right that he'd only be as strong as Missile was in 2013. Nominations: Black Panther (Marvel) Boba Fett (Star Wars) Captain Jack Sparrow Captain Marvel (Marvel) Giygas Kuja Lando Calrissian (Star Wars) Megaman Volnutt Milla Maxwell Thor (Marvel) --- "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do."

Chewbacca: Midcarder. It's fucking Star Wars. A well-liked movie character is one thing. A well-liked movie character from the most popular franchise ever is another.
Meryl: Low fodder. Loses to Frogger. Dogmeat: Literal dog meat. Mid fodder at best. --- BlueCrystalTear | GNT BB4 Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner 3DS 4356-4163-4781 | (((FREE HUGS))) | You're living your own life. You're you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

By the way I noticed that Joker (Persona 5) has one nom. He was actually in the 2018 bracket, listed under his real name, Ren Amamiya. I am considering his appearance in CBX as Ren Amamiya a different entity from Joker. His school uniformed 'normal' appearance was used in his picture, and not the Joker persona (heh) he is actually known for. And his name of Ren Amamiya has only been used in 1 game so far - Persona 5 Dancing in Starlight, which was not even out in NA at the time of CBX. Even if that isn't enough, you can consider it a one-time exception to the rule if only because I think it will be very interesting to rate Joker after getting into Smash. I agree with Metalmind's ratings for Chewie, Meryl and Dogmeat --- B8 Waifu ranking - http://pastebin.com/qnUpLnDA ... Copied to Clipboard!
