Hey guys, Just wanted to know, Is the match up chart in Eventhubs reliable? If not , what do you use for match up knowledge?
incase you never seen it the chart can be found here: http://www.eventhubs.com/guides/2008/oct/17/street-fighter-4-tiers-character-rankings/
Tier lists are always subjective. Having said that, this one that I saw linked from Emanuelb’s signature is pretty good. I agree with most of it - not all of it - but most of it.
No it’s not

It’s not like numbers give you matchup knowledge anyways
I mostly use my brain and experience
Tier lists are by nature extremely subjective, so you can’t really produce a true “reliable” tier list, and even if you could, it probably doesn’t apply or affect anyone else’s experience with the game other than your own.
Although a consensus among top players would probably produce a more accurate view of the meta game, most of that doesn’t apply to you unless you’re a top player, so it should always be a statistic taken with a grain of salt.
