god damn i found out SO much stuff with kyo last night its not funny

That’s the thing that inspired me to fo Lien. Workinonit right now (about damn time)!:tup:

the new vid will blow your minds

and don’t edit my post for it to say “the new vid will blow” :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t need to, you already hung yourself. :tup: for doing the work for me.:rofl:

I wish I could make a vid, it would be so much easier because some of the stuff I wan’t to g oover is hart to explain on paper. What did you do/use to do your vids?

dvd recorder, smartripper, flaskmpeg, adobe premire pro, and then blaze media pro to encode to divx or whatever

Current Tier list:

S- Jivatma, Wild Wolf, Xiao Lon
A- Terry, Billy, Mai, Jenny, Kyo, Ash
B- Kula, Lien, Rock, Athena, Alba, Kim, Geese, Miziguchi, K’
C- Duke, Ralf, Ryo, Maxima, Kyo-C, Chae Lim, Luise, Mr. Karate, Leona
D- Yuri, Soiree, Richard, Seth, Hanzo, Iori, Fio
E- Lili, Nagase, Clark, Minon, Mary, Ninon, Hyena

This is a pretty solid list but I really see Geese as being B class because he has a reversal, and Ash kind of moves between S and A class. That fireball is damn annoying. Also I think Jenny should be B class, she’s good but not good enough for A class unless there’s something I don’t know. I’ve also seen lists with Fio as C class and Iori as E. :slight_smile:

Anyway time to start learning WW and Jivatma :slight_smile:

Makes sense to me. Jivatma’s lame and WW is just silly broken lol. I’ll make Leona and Lien S tier, you just watch.

Where does that list come from? I’ve got a few problems with some of those rankings.

Agreed, there’s more than just a few problems with that list.

latest one on http://jbbs.livedoor.jp/bbs/read.cgi/game/30136/1190281513/

there are also several other ones listed there, but they are all about the same

ok, to expand on what I said…

I think Lien, Jenny, Ryo are too high. All of them should be dropped a tier. How the hell does Ryo rank higher than Mr. Karate? Jennet is solid, but I agree with you that she’s missing something that would make her tip-top. In fact, she seems more difficult to use than in 2k6 (that’s probably just something about my game changing over time though)

Duke and Lilly should be up one. Duke is a fucking tank. He doesn’t create many openings by himself but his presence on a team in the 2 spot nullifies a lot of characters and is great for killing momentum. He autoguards with light punch…lp! Lilly by virtue of Billy being so high, should not be E-Tier. She’s just as dangerous in slightly different ways and her copter is a legitimate annoyance.

Minon could be up one. Ninon should be up two. If Wild Wolf and Terry are ranked high by sole virtue of their damage output, wth is Ninon doing at the bottom?

I don’t think Wild Wolf is S-Tier, I really don’t understand that one. His overhead is outstanding, he’s solid, but he’s not abusable. Am I wrong here?

Soiree and Richard as D-Tier? Soiree has literally all day to confirm supers off his low hits. He can even wait till you’re on the ground to super.

I do agree with Terry and Mai’s placement in A-Tier. They aren’t ‘gameplay’ monsters, but I always take WAY more damage from them than I think I should during the fight.

Just my initial thought. It seems like this list is kind of not based on a whole lot of actual match up experience. I seem to be moving more people up than I do down. Maybe if this tiering isn’t a steep tiering it would be alright… Too much of it seems arbitrary though…

Soiree D-Tier…:rolleyes:

(Not picking on you here for posting it, Syxx573, I appreciate the heads up and discussion)

oh ya i don’t agree a lot with it either but I do think that WW is A or S tier because of the cancel mixups, plus the normal terry/ww stuff. Also when he does power dunk it sounds like he’s saying peanuts

is Jenny’s qcf+D,d+D safe like it is in XI?

or is qcb+A/C safe? or just qcb+A

so much shit is punishable in this game, and it’s so easy to punish because characters that have long strings starting with standing a or standing b, that’s why sometimes i have to tell myself just sit back,block and punish stuff :slight_smile: which you can’t do too much because of guard break :slight_smile:

i refuse to believe Soiree and Richard are not at least mid.
also Ash should be S.
i’ll comment more in a bit, drinking Scotch at the moment.

I still don’t buy Xiao Lon being S

Ash should be S, Mr. Karate B, Iori (wtf?!) should be at least B, i’d move Alba up to A and maybe K’

she’s S

S

S all the way

I thought this page in the MIA Mook was cute

background says “S Class Woman” haha

if you live in glenview we should play sometime

especially if you know others who will play

I think Ash is S as well but many lists have him as A, eithe way he is an AS

How is K’ ranked higher than Kyo-C? Kyo-C has a better mixup game, solid damage output. The main flaw I see with him is that A) next to no KDs and B) has to get in close.

With K’, I don’t know what his playsytle is. No mixup(iron trigger is not a mixup), he’s not fast nor does he have a high damage output(aside from Crimson starlord), his normals don’t have priority,he has a bit of space control with TK air trigger. Aside from the ability to land Heat Drive and Chain Drive off of most his combos, what makes K’ B rank? Is his style just a free style of fighting?

A plus being he can combo off his throw. K’ can blow people away from him with most of his combos thanks to Iron trigger>second shell>Minutes spikes thus resetting for space control with TK air trigger and he has Iron trigger>Black out now. And the same rank as Kula no less which has never happened…

I’m cool with where Rock is. That’s where he belongs. Same with Geese. And WW is better than Terry now? Terry got most of the things he has not to mention the round wave trick Terry has. And didn’t Richard have the best high/low mixup in the game and wasn’t Soiree brought up to his level? That would mean they both would about B rank at worst. I hate Alba but he’s B too? what about him having TWO COMMAND THROWS, triple projectile, the Howards reversal, high combo ability, and gains control because of his command throw, and has the ability to combo into one of his command throws, and having DMs you can’t side step. Don’t fotget his mixups is either on par with Kyo’s or a bit worse than or slightly better…
