Fucking hell, are you serious? Fuck you Nintendo! That doesn't even make sense! They're on bottom! Bowser still wasn't that great this time around, but that made him worth playing to me. They fucking ruined that now. Bowser could have been a major contender competitively this time around, but no, he's going to be mid tier at best now.

Being able to up-B from the bottom of the screen wouldn't help in final destination, though, except maybe for Pac Man and Villager.

Depends if they retain a midair jump, and I don't see why they wouldn't since they didn't use it yet in theory. In which case Pit and Dark Pit would make it (probably without the jump even), and Rosalina (also might not need the jump), and Sonic and Megaman, and Kirby and Dedede, and Zelda. With a little skill, Pacman can do it without the midair jump, and Villager can do it effortlessly, as can Rob. Olimar can do it jumpless if he's without Pikmin and his Pikmin would of course not be with him at this point. If and when Snake is added, he'll probably be able to do it if he still has that flying camera drone thing. So about a quarter to a third of the roster can do it with midair jumps, about a sixth of the roster can do it with just the up-b.

Regardless, the funnest part of being Bowser, executing the Bowsercide, has been nerfed.

As my sig indicates, i use Bowser a lot and very rarely use side-B. I've been trying to use it more in the air since it seems to help landing speed. But when i'm on the ground i'd rather just clobber them.
