I wouldn't object to Colleen Wing moving up.
I don't think Talia al Ghul is on the list yet actually. Second or third?
I'd have to see some skill feats before agreeing with Black Bolt being 2nd tier.
I would put Superman in 4th. Lack of skill feats. And there are a few in 3rd I'd consider bumping down at some point.
Jessica Drew for 3rd is okay.
WW isn't as skilled as the current top tiers.
Cleaned up and updated official list and proposed changes update.

-There are multiple Swordsman which one in particular are we referring to?
-We can discuss Champion a bit more and then put it to a vote.
Additions: Blue Devil, Grace Choi, Carol Danvers, Hulk, Puck, Wild Child, Black Knight.
-I put Falcon in 4th unless someone puts something to show he should be higher.
*Domino should go up*

I'd have to see some skill feats before agreeing with Black Bolt being 2nd tier.

I don't know much about Mar-Vell, but Drax was made to kill Thanos. He possesses an equal level of skill to the Titan. If anything he should go up, not down. I think he's fine where he is though
Maybe if he was successful in killing Thanos I'd see that as a valid point, thing is, he hasn't. You've gotta think, not many people know Thanos is a very skilled martial artist, he doesn't show it often because he typically doesn't need to.

Which could, potentially, say absolutely nothing about skill, 😉.
Also; how about Adam Warlock? He's pretty damned skilled.
