yea that list is pretty spread out. one thing i do like is they listed ryo high…from what ive seen from match vids he is hella nice.
I gotta second this, 2002UM Ryo is a beast…
is thier definite teir list fr this game
This was the latest Arcadia Tier List:
S: K’, Kasumi, Nameless
A: Kula, Benimaru, Yuri, King
B: Andy, Bao, Hinako, Chris, Mature, Heidern, EX Robert
C: Ryo, Iori, Jhun, O.Chris
D: O.Shermie, other characters.
E: Maxima, Vanessa, May Lee, O.Yashiro
I think it explains why some of the characters are placed where they are, unfortunately i can’t read enough Japanese to understand.
O.Yashiro at the bottom of the tier list… That’s really weird D: Maybe it’s because he doesn’t have any Max Mode Combos?
Else D tier is pretty big. Thought that at least one Kyo Clone would get a higher ranking.
Better, but there’s still no reason for an “E” tier.
Where is EX Takuma, Kim, Vice and Terry? Thought they’d be near the top. Choi should also still be up there, despite his slight nerfs.
i knew yuri would be up there, even though her gimicks aren’t enough for Dark Geese if I remember correctly, and therefore she isn’t really A tier
whut lol
Yuri is a solid A to B, but I do not think she is top tier. Also Angel is better in this game than people think (I say B class if used to her full potential MAYBE A), they just need to see a solid Angel in 2002 UM (I’ve got Ismael’s from Juarez on film, he’s the best player in 2002 UM in Juarez right now) in action/person to know.
I would also put Billy as A, Choi A, as in the right hands you will see why they are A Class as well. It helps alot guys when you are able to see different styles in person instead of just going on some Asian tier list!!!
Also Nameless as strong as he is has problems against-
King, Billy, Yamazaki, and people that can play effective keep away.
King is very very strong, so I would put her S Class.
I’d also put O. Yashiro B-A.
Also you all need to realize different tiers for different countries, quit gawking over one particular tier list, every country has different tiers.
Why don’t we, MAKE OUR OWN tier list, and no there is NO definitive tier list for the game, every country I’ve seen has different tier lists.
So I am gonna do it for now:
US/Juarez, Mexico Tier List May 2010:
S:
Geese (If legal), K’, King, Nameless, EX Takuma, Kasumi, Jhun
A:
Yuri, Billy,Bao, Choi, Kula, Benimaru, Mature, Andy, Clark, May Lee, Chris
B:
Athena, O. Yashiro, Seth, Angel, Kim, Kyo-2, EX Robert, Heidern, Vice
C:
Yashiro, Kyo, Ramon, Terry, Whip, Kyo-1, Ralf, Joe, Chin, others I haven’t listed basically go here
D: O. Shermie, Vanessa, EX Kensou
I mostly agree with DG’s tierlist, but what makes O. Shermie so bad?
I think 02UM O. Shermie is the best Shermie ever. Also, what makes May Lee A-tier. I don’t claim to know anything about her, so I’m not saying her placing is wrong, but it seems to me she raped with the nerf stick DEEP.
Shiki- O. Shermie really is 2002 regular O. Shermie with not enough buffs to compensate her weaknesses.
May Lee is still A because only the damage scaling and the super broken comboes she’s been taken away, other than that everything else she has at a high level is still intact.
She got toned down yeah, but like Angel, in the right hands she’s still very very good, better than Angel she is in the right hands because she still has that 50% combo off a counter, which is:
Land a counter in regular mode change to Hero Mode at the end, hcb+C immediately, Tiger knee in Hero mode aerial super…it’s still very very good.
She has a lot of her high level juggle comboes still, does less damage, but she still has it and this keeps her at A Class.
She has problems against K’ however.
Her new air super? Her overhead f+A which can be canceled into air super? Some of the best hitboxes on her normals that she’s ever had? Some of the best recovery on her Lightning Kisses she’s ever had?
These aren’t enough?
No because O. Shermie is still too slow in this game. Her keepway isn’t that good against most of the cast, it is too slow and punishable vs. most of the cast.
In theory it sounds good, but vs. high level combat it’s not that effective.
I also don’t agree with the tierlistings for O Shermie and O Yashiro. Their buffs buffs definitely put her on level with many characters.
At her best O. Shermie may be a D or C at her possible best I’ll give her that, but nothing higher that I’ve seen as of YET. Now I acknowledge I haven’t seen everything at all even from my travels, so I acknowledge I am going based off what I see in Mexico and the USA, because simply judging on match videos won’t tell you the whole story.
So in other words, your judgement is pretty off base.
In this case, judging from match videos is the best story because those players (especially Japan/China) are able to use the characters better than anyone.
Mmm, don’t disregard O. Shermie just because you haven’t seen a good one in your travels. I think it’s quite obvious that she’s much better than that. Then again I don’t think there should be things like a D tier for this game.
ohohohohoho, there are plenty of O. Shermies here that are just ripping shit up.
Well, good news. Online is coming soon for this game, so tier listings can be made better what with the ease of access to matches.
