Hi, this is my first post here. Good to see other BR players.
My view of this series is that 2 and 3 are the only ones worth playing. I solely play Alice.
EmblemLord, I have some thoughts on your BR3 tier list. Mine would be something like this,
Top: Stun, Jenny, Uranus.
Stun is top because he can grab off any small opening, during and after attack strings even if you cancel, ground games, command throws.
Jenny is super fast, good low attacks, something else I can’t remember.
Uranus, but only in human form.
From here it becomes difficult, because the characters have very different strengths and weaknesses. Like, you’ve put Gado and Yugo as top. But in my experience, Gado is too slow and the dodge system screws him up, but his throw setups are good. And his high damage means if you get hit chances are it’s near over. But I still can’t think of him as top, only in some ways.
Yugo’s rush is good, but lows aren’t too good. It’s easy to knock him out of what he’s doing.
I’d put Shen, Long, Uriko and Alice over Yugo, Xion, Bakuryu and Kohryu (Kohryu is better). I know nothing about Busazima or Shina, only that she has an infinite, but I think it has an escape, just very hard to do.
