silly question from a lazy smasher... I wondered why bowser was so low on the tier list, so I went to check the video thread... only thing I see is a great, if slightly inversatile character, apparently without any majaor inherent flaws. So what is Bowser's weakness? He isn't slow, for one.
I noticed possibly the best GTFO move ingame (up B, works OOS, huge hitbox, knockback and 10 damage, invincibility frames, fast too), a very versatile and powerful anti-shield tool (side B, huge range, can kill, 18 damage, can be used for bowsercide), a wicked edgeguard (down B, enormous hitbox, kills, fast way to get back on stage or edgehog) and an edgeguard/damage racker (neutral B, makes returning a pain, safe option, changes the momentum of the game).
He has great aerial manouverability, is the heaviest character, and has a wicked grab release that opens up a lot of options (at least that's what it looked like to me). What is it then that makes Bowser low tier?
