Smash but Fighting Skills are Canon 

Olimar is the definition of "Lover not a Fighter". Dude forgives anyone, is always trying to solve conflicts peacefully, and loves his family to death.

The fact that Nick dressed up as a human for his new profile picture is crazy

>Cloud was a high ranking member of SOLDIER. Who's gonna tell him???

pit and simon being B tier after fighting gods and monsters is nuts

3:20 “Toon Link doesn’t have training” Erm… actually, the Wind Waker intro FORCES you to train with his master, showing he has properly learned his skills from an expert. Coming back later in the game, Link can be taught further Sword techniques, on top of his already advanced reaction commands. I’d actually argue that he’s pretty well trained, at least more than OOT Link who really did simply roll out of bed

Poppt: Who would win, you with a knife or Mike Tyson? Nick: If he was in his prime, he would give me a little trouble Poppt: But would you lose? Nick: Nah, I'd win

Oh my god, placing Vernias as reference next to 6,3ft Samus is peak disrespect.

>Simon Belmont takes on Dracula, the most powerful vampire in history multiple times and wins each time >B-tier ???

I have never seen such an incorrect depiction of Ness. He is the true physical powerhouse in Earthbound.

Putting martial artists in A tier because they can beat other regular people, then putting a gorilla that handily kicks the snot out of other gorillas, a monster-slaying Belmont, and a literally divine weapon master bathed in holy power and chosen by God herself in B tier is the goofiest shit I've ever heard.

Ness can literally fight hordes of alien soldiers with nothing but his bare hands and Poo (someone who trained his whole life) even said that Ness is one hell of a fighter. Seeing stuff like this as a powerscaler and earthbound fan is a *huge pain in the ass*. And in a matter of fact, almost every smash bros fighter would beat the ever living shit out of a normal person due to them having combat experience

19:09 fun fact, pit canonically cannon fly on his own. He needs outside help, wether it be the power of flight granted by either Palutena (?) or Viridi, or the 3 sacred treasures.

Toon Link, Roy and Sora: Characters that have defeated unconceivable monsters and horrors with their skills and wit. "Oh they're just kids C Tier" Inkling: A kid with a paintball gun. " They're racist, B Tier" ... Huh?

Ness in D-Tier is absolutely insane. He beats up 5 grown-ass men that are TRAINED police men, takes on hordes of alien beings easily, he’s literally canonically a living manifestation of the Earth and Phycic Power. And if that’s not enough for you, he no-mercy style obliterated the embodiment of hate and evil. And some may say, “but he didn’t kill Giygas, Paula did” well, you have to take into account that he CARRIED the entire team to that final confrontation.

Ness literally took on an a human-sized ant, a gang leader, a robot, and an entire town's police force on his own with a cracked bat and won. and that's all before chapter 2. there's not a univere where he's a D-tier.

“Rely on Pikmin that takes no skill” Press X to doubt

Roy: Fights dragons Also Roy: Yeah just C tier

sora in c tier was criminal

Ness in F-Tier is insane, homie can beat the beat the hell out of a time travelling child, and can survive fighting against an incomprehensible deity of evil, called the "Universal Cosmic Destroyer."

7:27 Vernias reference outta NOWHERE got me really good.

Ness is actually a good fighter tho. Canonically his body involuntarily moves out of the way and even counterattacks when people try to hit him

Donkey kong in B TIER. My man DONKEY PUNCHED THE MOON OUT OF ORBIT.

Dk punched the moon out of orbit 💀💀💀

Olimar can smash a boulder twice his size with a single punch in Pikmin 1, can kill creatures his size using only his fists with little trouble, can throw heavy Pikmin very quickly, can get crushed, exploded, pecked at and bit several times before falling, survive falls from incredible heights, but as well as having a great tactical mind and extreme tenacity, he is compassionate, accepting and loving. Olimar is an S tier creature

Don’t get me wrong I love the new profile pic, but piplup was iconic 😭

DK in B-tier is crazy, lets not forget that he punched the moon down to earth in Country returns. Edit: yes people, i watched the first 10 seconds. But B tier is for people who can beat the average Joe. I just feel like DK can take a little more than the average joe😂

Dude Byleth in B tier is crazy. At the end of the Chrimson Flower route he and Edelgard were able to kill the Immaculate One who survived multiple nuke-like bombs on top of being an extremely adaptable fighter even before he gained Divine Pulse to turn back time. A tier at least but I'd argue S tier

This video really shows how much of a non-gamer Nick is. A lot of these videos show it to be fair But man the underestimating of these characters and overestimating of characters he knows and likes

Mario and Luigi should be S tier, they can literally reflect huge destruction orbs with their hammers. INDIVIDUALLY.

Jeez, who ever the editor is, give them a damn raise for how well made theses videos look

I gotta say, I really like hearing Nick talking about video game lore. More of that, please.

Sora after fighting hordes of heartless and a maniac called xehanort b tier. Cloud who killed sephiroth with help a tier. Research out the window.

Now THAT's an appearance I wasn't expecting to see xD Thanks for using my video!

The editing in this video is actually phenomenal, HUGE props to Tam on this one!! The demonstrations of the characters' power levels were insanely clean!

7:42 This is way too true. Becoming a commander of a small army because a n i m e is cracked as hell.

Imagine if the characters reflected nick’s skills, they would be unbeatable

Kirby: (breaks stage in half, sends sandbag flying for thousands of lightyears, steals people’s souls). Dedede: BUFF.

"Simon is the most wellknown vampire hunter" *Jonathan will probably forget that*

Whoever made this mod didn't play some of these games. Toon link has a swordmaster to train him at his home island and bests ganondorf in a swordfight at the end of the game. He's easily b tier.

Kazuya isn't broken, he's 'lore accurate.' _especially after Tekken 8 oml_

The disrespect on soras placement is craaaazzzy

21:28 Well people do say yeet whem they throw things. Snd Jordan certainly threw that match.

that Ness ranking is absurd

Not factoring in salt, Byleth would be an easy A even without Sothis since they earn a reputation for themselves as the Ashen Demon long before Sothis becomes active within them.

Excited to one day see a video where every canonicity mod is combined into one. Size, power, skill, everythinh.

Isabelle A-posing gracefully across the field is the best part of this mod tbh

Sora was done so dirty man

No joke: I loved this purely for the character summaries. They were so much fun to listen to!

0:54 "Who do you think you are, Bruce Lee?"😉 - Mallow

HE’S NO LONGER PIPLUP 😭

Sora being C Tier when he canonically beat characters who can manipulate space, time, and nothingness is wild to me lol. He's also the current strongest Keyblade wielder as of Kingdom hearts 3. Minimum A and that's low balling.

4:13 Yesterday they also showed two more transformations that Peach will have in the game (now we have Swordfigther, Detective, Patisseierre, Kung Fu, Ninja and Cowgirl). She is my favourite Nintendo character and one of my favourite characters since I was little. I can't wait for Princess Peach Showtime. And I also hope Nick bring videos playing the game to the channel, that would be so cool.

The olimar slander is CRAZY that man is a CAPTIAN commanding pikmin takes NO SKILL?? Dude has been in the trenches since 01 put some respect on the name.

*In "Play a character with DRIP" on Party Crashers:* Nick: *Doesn't think Pit can help Vern in a fight.* Nick Now: *Puts Pit in B-Tier* The man learned from his mistakes!

Canonicly in street fighter lore: ryu and ken uses ansatsuken or the assains fist fighting style shotokan is a thing they translated it to when they ported it to english Also kaz was thrown off a clif when he was 5 not a volcano. Heihaci only did that after beating devil kazuya in the second king of iron fist tournament in tekken 2

😢bye piplup we will miss you.

This editing is so good!! Really adds so much more fun to an already awesome concept!

My guess for what would have happened with megaman: despite being incredibly strong and powerful he must abide by the laws of robotics and there for cannot attack any of the fighters (except R.O.B.)

Nick’s non-gamer shows in these types of videos lol.

no way olimar is f tier bro he has to calculate the arch of his throws, he runs around a ton and doesnt rest untill almost midnight, and he throws around things half his size, and sometimes he throws around things that can make full gravitational distruptions, and he uses all of this to destroy things sometimes several hundered times his height and weight. I would consider olimar not only really skilled at fighting, not only intensely athletic, but also he should get the points for being skilled with a weapon because his weapon is his pikmin, he should be high A at the LEAST Also kirby is s tier because in kirby star allies theres a minigame where he uses a BASEBALL BAT to fling ASTEROIDS LIGHT YEARS INTO SPACE AT HUNDEREDS OF LIGHT YEARS IN LESS THAN A SECOND AND DESTROY PLANETS, also hes killed like 12 literal gods in his games

9:00 rip sophist

Vernias as the reference was so brutal.

The fact that donkey Kong, isn’t in S Tier hurts my brain, considering he Has lifted up a boat out of the water while standing on it, and Shattered the moon

Ok that beginning with Little mac is lore accurate Peanut, change my mind

I'm disappointed in the lack of the good captain... Man ended his anime with a falcon punch to the bad guys face into i think a nuclear reactor... GOAT

I love how this video is just, Can they throw hands?

I like these videos, not just because the gameplay is interesting, but because you really do your research. I respect that.

Cloud is among the highest ranks Zack: well you didnt make it into SOLDIER but its whats in here that counts.

My man got so salty that people kept calling him a Piplup that he changed the iconic PFP. The new one IS pretty drippy, to be fair. I'm still gonna call you a Piplup though. You will never escape the funni curse.

19:08 "Pit has wings, dude. He's gonna fly." As shown in the world of light, but also in Kid Icarus Uprising on the 3DS, Pit very specifically can NOT fly. Palutena can channel her divinity into Pit for a 5 minute period, allowing him flight, but after that he can no longer fly or his wings will literally combust into flame and severely weaken him. Pit's recovery (or Up + B) shows a glowing around his wings. Said glowing is the very Power Palutena Grant's Pit

Roy casually defeating a overlord that took half of his country and his dragon helper Nick:c tier

.... Super Mario RPG Peach: Am I a joke to you?

11:46 that’s kinda unfair for Sora, that Sephiroth fight in KH1 is brutal I did not work by butt off to hear “yeah… Sora strong cuz Disney made it easy…”. Even if we don’t count the KH1 Sephiroth fight, using just KH1, Sora learns advanced magic skills extremely quickly, outclassing Donald who was an advanced Royal Mage pretty early in the story KH1. He learns the power to STOP TIME on a whim. Even at half his full strength as a Heartless, he was able to give Ansem and Xemnas a damn good run for their money too. KH1 Sora deserves at THE VERY LEAST a good B tier. And if we go any game beyond KH1, Sora is an insane beast, just watch the compilation of KH2 reaction commands.

20:20 Don't forget the sandals. I swear mi madre had perfect aim with those

I mean, if Olimar (a guy the size of a raisin) falls from the planet's atmosphere landing onto solid floor and live with minimal damage he definitely is not weak.

love how ness can heal himself, reverse time when losing, and also beat an omnipresent being but they still nerfed him tons. Ness was capable of beating a creature made entirely out of diamond, was powered up by his own mind and capable of damaging ( albeit not killing) Giygas after he became an abstract, universal being of pure fucked up evil. Giygas is literally omnipresent and ness was taking hits from him and surviving, he claps most of the people in smash ult.

YEAH BABY LETS GOOOO! What a an awesome way to start off TC2024. New pfp, new Moddt1 vid (courtesy of Lily Lambda ofc), and same old fun shenanigans with the Penguin-Enjoying, Daisy-Loving Chilean Prince. 🌼🐧🇨🇱💙

“Cloud is amongst the highest ranks” so who’s gonna tell him

In the case of Roy, he should be at least an A-Tier. It should be assumed that Roy has reached the true ending since his main weapon in Smash is and always has been the Binding Blade which doesn't get unlocked until close to the final chapter. He freaking slays a dragon, which could arguably put him in S Tier.

Great video and idea, and always love to see Poppt1 here! Just a quick side note, Byleth can actually learn many more combat skills, such as hand-to-hand combat (e.g. using knuckles as a weapon choice), and although they technically have a goddess living inside of them, the Crest of Flames flows within their blood, which is like the strongest crest there is. So, Byleth should be S-tier.

Peach is actually pretty goated and helpful in super mario rpg too although mostly for her magic

"Peach has no fighting experience" CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE RABBID GAMES

19:59 the double yo really got me I don’t know why 😭

It's always good when we get a new TCNick3 video. I just feel happy whenever there's a new video from you - thank you Nick :]

Ness Is strong physically he can Beat an entire police team

If Mewtwo is in S-Tier in its base form for this video, just imagine Shadow Mewtwo from Pokkén Tournament.

I just enconterd this chanel today, watched all the cannon stats and atack and those subbed, and got to watch this 3 hours later, this chanel roks.

Man, Sore definitely should’ve been higher. The guy is strong enough to chop giant buildings in half, and is as strong as Hercules, who throws Kaiju sized titans into space.

You know they didn't think too hard when sora is in c-tier, the guy who can master any weapon in 10 seconds, fought through multiple worlds, and takes on armies by himself.

13:50 and just like in anime, evil always loses

Simon has a formal martial education from the Belmont family and to our knowledge has no magical enhancements. He is strong enough to go toe to toe with dracula with sheer martial prowess and juicing. He should be A tier at least. Byleth earned the title of the "Ashen demon" before Sothis awakens. They're a very experienced merc despite their age.

22:02 idk Nick, Byleth even without Divine Pulse is still no slouch on account of their Crest. The crest being embedded in their heart and effectively making him something of an Anomaly even among crest bearers, and the fact that Spoilers, He was created by the Garreg Mach Monastery to get their Crazy Archbishop’s Mom (Sothis) back could well place them into A Tier if your Salty, S Tier at most Oh and Kazuya’s Devil Gene too. Makes him a dangerous force of destruction. So also S tier

I think if Steve was counted he would be a tier for the weapons he can use and just strength. He can punch a full grow tree down with his bare hands same for breaking stone and he takes no damage. Also not to mention the amount of wieght he can lift in his inventory.

I'm curious to see where Shulk is in this tier list. I mean at first he's just some kid with a scrap sword, but then he finds his true power and kills a god. I wonder what Nick would've thought about that.

Sora in C tier is insane when you consider his feats (like when he he beat Sephiroth, IN A 1 V 1! AND THEN BEAT HIM AGAIN)

"Even a reject can surpass an elite, if he trains hard enough" they said..

now I want to see this but based on the opponents they’ve canonically beaten so like, Kirby or Bayonetta have canonically beaten gods, so they’d be stronger than, say, Olimar, since he doesn’t really fight any gods it’d probably go from multiple gods beaten to beings close to gods all the way down to no canon fights (like Isabelle)

Wario litterly works out with no sweat so he can beat the living lights out of his enemies while looking for treasure I see no reason for him not to be in A tier

Homie thinking that even with a knife, he's beating Iron Mike is next level delusion.

Roy is a noble and trained swords who fights and kills charging knights .
