Smash 4 Taunt Tier List (v0.0.1)

[SavantGardener]

Tier list based on overall character taunt game (not official). You're welcome. q:^)

Taunt tier list?

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Ness should be higher.

PK Fire -> BThrow -> "Okey" is one of the most brutal strings in the game

 

[FalKoopa]

We're rating characters based on how much rage they can induce?

Sonic should be higher. YOU'RETOOSLOW YOU'RETOOSLOW YOU'RETOOSLOW YOU'RETOOSLOW

Amen. Sonic's taunt game may have been nerfed from Brawl due to the removal of "You're too slow," but he's still very annoying to taunt against. He's S tier at least, though I think he has the potential to be broken and be S+ tier.

 

[jcbamaral]

That Villager dance is so humiliating, it should be S tier.

 

[Roaring Salsa]

Hey, look... Zelda's doing better in this tier list than in the actual one.

 

[Dark Phazon]

Ganondorfs sword taunt should be in top 10

 

[Pyra]

Duck Hunt should be higher.

 

[SpottedCerberus]

How is Captain Falcon not S tier? How is Shulk so low? And Sheik should be in F tier.

 

[Deleted member 269706]

If we're referring to the quality of taunts, Falcon should be on top, Sonic on bottom. If we're talking about forms of disrespect, Falcon should still be on top, alongside Sonic. Ness, Jiggs, Mario, and Bowser should all be much higher as well.

 

[Deevees]

The villager dance should be SSS tier.

 

[Luggy]

How is DDD not S tier ?
He literally has an infinite taunt.

D3 is top tier everywhere in every game, even the ones he was not in, anyway.

 

[Wintermelon43]

Donkey Kong, Kirby, King Dedede, Captain Falcon, and Shulk should be S tier.

S Tier:Shulk, Captain Falcon, Luigi, Donkey Kong, King Dedede, Kirby

And Greninja should be higher since his down taunt is an attack as well.

 

[SavantGardener]

I will be releasing updates to this periodically. Thanks for all the feedback!

 

[ChefKef]

In all honesty, Mario should be lower, Mewtwo should be lower, Ganondorf lower, Math lower (desu) Pac Man WAY lower, Game and Watch lower.

 

[Deleted member]

Game and Watch lower.

Absolutely not.

 

[David Wonn]

Greninja should be considerably higher. Not only does he have a taunt that does damage (like Luigi) but it also mixes well with his side-B.

 

[MarioMeteor]

It actually looks real good. I'd put the Queen of Saltyness Jigglypuff a little bit higher and I'd put Doc up a higher too because I love how subtle he is with his taunts.

 

[Jatayu]

Charizard is probably F-tier. Honestly, his taunts consist of him stomping the ground and growling. Maybe he flaps his wings! But it's just so generic.

And Dedede for S-tier.

Looking forward to how this turns out.

 

[ahannoush4]

Mac should be a little higher, don't ya think? His infinite jab is pretty annoying...

 

[Wintermelon43]

This is a taunt tier list

 

[Goolloom]

Falcon, Shulk and Donkey Kong should be S tier. Maybe Ness could be higher because Bthrow to ''Okey'' is guaranteed to generate salt. Dedede's crouch is near broken, should be S+ tier, and because of countless people doing Rosalina's ''Mm hmm!'' I'd put her a bit higher.
(Are we really doing this?)

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

Fox deserves to be higher. "Cah mohn!"
DONG and DDD are also S-Tier...
Edit: Ganon's Dash Dancing animation... it's hilarious!

 

[SpottedCerberus]

Rosalina ought to be higher. 'Mhmm' spam is OP.

I don't see how MK could possibly be last. That voice tho....

ZSS has great taunts. Yeah, they're annoying, but that's what makes them great.

Roy ain't that much higher than Marth.

Captain Falcon and Shulk belong in a tier above everybody else. (Maybe Luigi can join them.)

F tier, in no particular order: Sheik, Samus, Dr. Mario, Charizard

 

[jcbamaral]

Not biasing or anything, but puffs rest should put her at the very least in A, maybe S tier. The pain of dying while the cute balloon sleeps peacefully...

 

[Yojimbosan]

Cpt. Falcon for S tier (has the original rage inducing taunt)
Villager dance is top A tier
Maybe Ike a bit lower
Wii fit higher for leg stretch taunt and how loud her vocals become when taunting. It's also just good advice.
I like Lucario's kung fu stance down taunt. Anyone with a kung fu stance is badass.
And I wouldn't mind Yoshi being higher. Are his taunts adorable or rage inducing? I think pretty evenly both.

 

[ahannoush4]

This is a taunt tier list

repeating an attack for the sole purpose of annoying your opponent is considered a taunt

 

[Abyssal Lagiacrus]

I honestly think Bowser Jr. should be lower. I main Iggy, and despite loving the character himself and his moveset/playstyle, his taunts are lackluster and I'm not a fan of them.

Mr. G&W would be higher, but unfortunately they lowered his volume from Melee/Brawl. His bell taunt was super loud in those games and I loved it, but alas they nerfed it.

Did they really? Huh. I guess I really have abandoned the poor guy...

 

[Abyssal Lagiacrus]

Yeah, he's much quieter in this game and it's a shame.

 

[Zelbur]

Zero Suit Samus's "Is that all?" taunt is pretty disrespectful, especially if you owned the opponent or they SDed.

 

[jcbamaral]

Which should make Roy tier A. Spamming B after a kill is a need. Also, honestly WFT's existance is a taunt by itself. at least tier A.

 

[Acj1]

"Come at Me" isn't at S tier?

 

[N7Kopper]

Robin as D tier? Maybe female Robin.
Male Robin deserves at least a high B for "You're not ready!" disrespect.

 

[DroveSour]

What about Wario's taunt where he taunts while riding his bike? He also has a twerk taunt.

 

[Ryuki of Spiral Rhapsody]

I know these aren't taunts, but we really need to also acknowledge other stupid things a character can do to induce high amounts of sodium.

As someone said, King DeDeDe has the best crouch in the game.

What about characters dancing when you tilt left and right gently

What about really bad crawling animations when you crouch and mash left and right

.... That all aside, I am very glad Wario is very high on this list.

EDIT:
I think Ryu should be higher as while his Up Taunt and Side Taunt are tame, Down Taunt can really provoke someone

 

[Creativion]

Little Mac should be S tier because Doc Louis sometimes talks with them.

 

[WwwWario]

I agree that Wario is S tier. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is more disrespectful than straight up laugh in your enemies' face as they get KO'd.

 

[Enemy Birds]

Greninja ought to move up a tier. His down-taunt looks enough like a shrug to potentially be really annoying, and you can also use it to mess up other people's taunts!
