3 amiibo that DESERVE a throw-combo AI patch!

by Doc

Amiibo have always had issue with grabs and grab hitboxes – the only functional kind of grab in the game are command grabs, which are invisible to the opponent amiibo. Nintendo’s been very unconcerned with making sure that part of combat is functional, and it shows in the amiibo meta – to this day, the characters that were designed to use throws are mostly inferior to the tanky heavyweights, according to the amiibo tier list.

So who should get an AI patch?

October 2020 SUAL Amiibo Tier List – Smash Ultimate

This Smash Ultimate amiibo tier list isn’t the entire community’s amiibo tier list, it’s specific to the SUAL Discord server. You can join them here. It should be noted that this server was voted on only by members of SUAL per the results of their weekly tournament series, and isn’t indicative of the overall tier list. Remember, SUAL does their tournaments over arenas, not through Powersaves.

Should Minecraft World be legal in the amiibo stagelist?

Where’s Joker and Hero on the amiibo tier list?

by Doc

As of this writing, no official amiibo tier list has been released that includes Joker and Hero. It’s not hard to see why – they’re very tricky amiibo to pin down, especially Joker, who just had a handful of AI fixes in 9.0. So… where should they be?

Where Amiibo Doctor is headed

by Doc, Owner of Amiibo Doctor

Hi, I’m Doc. I don’t believe we’ve met, but a lot of you have really enjoyed the content that myself and the Contributors have put up on this website. That fact really, truly thrills me. I’ve been studying and training amiibo for over five years, and this website has been up for almost half of that. The fact that so many people have made use of this website and the accompanying Youtube channel in that time is something I’ll be proud of for the rest of my life. I’ve been able to stand up a bit straighter as this website has grown.
