For a complete visual breakdown of combos from each character, watch this:

probably the best video ever done for this game
Yeah I totally forgot about Kangs Bs…
Team God and Goddess therefore is Kang/Alice…a broken as hell tourney team…
The Dragon Killaz…:lol:
well my fav team is Billy and Jimmy, wher do they rank ?
They are mid-tier at best…I think 4649’s tier list is the best on I’ve seen…
ok if I am reading it correctly they are preety good as they are in the A rank
Yeah oops I read it wrong…I saw all those characters lumped together but I guess that is one huge A class.
Billy is Top Tier for sure. Billy has one of the safest styles in the game and his juggles are only rivaled by Kang and Alice. The only thing keeping Billy from the God Tier with Kang is his lack of an infinite. I agree that 4649’s list is pretty accurate, but this is my tweaked list with brief reasons why. I’ll detail later if asked to.
God Tier
- Kang- His infinite is incredibly easy to do and he has some of the best anti-airs in the game. His super is of dubious value, but he can’t have everything.
Top Tier
2)Alice- Easiest infinite in the game and incredibly safe moves. She’s also the 2nd fastest mover in the game which is useful for setting up wall comboes (only Pupa has her beat). Her only real flaws are her slow normals and her damage intake rate.
-
Billy- High damaging comboes, probably the best all around juggles in the game, and he’s versatile. His Back Slasher can set up for high damage comboes that don’t rely on the wall. If he had an infinite, he’d be better than Kang even.
-
Pupa- She’s the fastest character in the game on both movement and attack speed. She’s probably one of the easiest to use characters in the game because her Quexida is unblockable and she has good juggles like Billy. Billy is better because he can take more abuse and does more damage.
Mid Tier
5) Pepe- He’s easily punishable, but his comboes are amongst the most damaging in the game (excluding infinites) and his Arriba has huge knockback, potentially knocking people into walls from nearly across the whole screen. Another benefit is that he and Oni are the only characters that can launch a Team Duplex from a ground combo.
-
Cassandra- She rules the skies in this game and has a great defensive style. She’s surprisingly slow though and her ground options are limited.
-
Jimmy- Surprisingly, Jimmy is not as good as people think he is. He has the best ground game by far, but his options are limited otherwise. His Gun Blow is probably the best super in the game, although his lv 1 Gun Blow lacks the knockback power needed to initiate wall comboes.
-
Lynn- Like 4649 pointed out, she can corner rape like there’s no tomorrow. She’s almost as fast as Alice and Pupa, but she has a couple weak moves.
-
Oni- Oni has a versatile move selection, but the problem is every move of his leads to easy punishment and his damage intake is bad in comparison to his punishability. Other than his and Pepe’s shared Team Duplex ability, he doesn’t have much going for him compared to other characters.
-
Radel- Ah, the game’s scrub favorite. He can easily escape corner traps with his Glass Escape and Dead Dragon, but otherwise, he’s completely reactionary and predictable. The Screw Back is even more telegraphable than the Falcon Punch in Smash Brothers. Cheesy, so expect scrubs to use him.
Low Tier
11) Jones- Damaging moves all around, but a lot of his moves take too damn long to execute. The Funky Impact and Retro Knuckle are both useless and his rapid punch move doesn’t do a lot of damage and the opponent recovers quickly. He’d be better if he had lower execution times.
-
Sonia- Her super move is a great anti-air, but its slow as hell. Her knife toss move is unpredictable because it can be launched in multiple directions, and Snake Bite does a lot of damage and is a high knockback move. Her main problem is she can’t abuse the wall as much as other characters can.
-
Elias- Her restores his health with a lot of his moves and has a good fireball, but that’s about it. His button commands are also the hardest to do of all the characters, so its too easy to make mistakes with him.
Joke Tier
14) Annie- She gets an A+ for character design, but an F for effectiveness. She has good combo potential, but even though, her damage output is laughable at best. Her specials like the Zuum can be jumped over and most her other specials can be rolled through. The only good thing about her is that her Lv. 2 Crossing Wrath can hit rollers.
Annie’s joke-tier?
I love using her.
Ouch.
At least I play Pupa and Alice as well.
D:
My fun team personally is Annie and Cassandra.
My real team is Annie & Pupa.
D:
I use Annie and Cassandra as well…I promise guys give me some time and I will upload some ROTD casuals from FFN…Im just overloaded with the others right now…
Chibi can testify…we are getting ready to start the Akari NGBC recordin right now…
:tup:
Do you play ROTD on kaillera? Looking for comp…
I’ve played some PC RotD…and, I’m sorry but I just don’t like it.
Can’t get into it…RotD has good potential and some nice character designs but Matrimelee does everything better.
I agree and I play that too…would you like to play?
I have to agree that Matrimelee is a much better game. RotD is seriously broken due to the wall and dial-a-combo system allowing too much air rape. Who’s your favorite person in Matrimelee? I like Keith, Shintaro, and Buntaro.
I love everyone in PIM…and Lynn is hella better in PIM than in ROTD…
The wall effects do hurt ROTD.wall bounce continue combo blah blah blah…it hurts the game but I certainly still play it make no mistake about it…
Well…I’ve been giving RotD a second chance.
I feel it’s decent enough now…but I still think Matrimelee is better by a good margin.
I didn’t know about any of the inifinites, but I don’t like the stupid dial-a-combos and fucking Johann.
And why do ALL the main characters (Billy, Jimmy, Pepe) play like Terry/Rock/Geese hybrids???
Hahaha that is true they are hybrids of these characters in some way or form…but you know its all right.
And soon or later guys don’t worry I will be giving Kaillera a chance don’t worry…its just finances for now and a shitty ass CPU.
Lynn plays like I dunno…a typical Asian girl hybrid type…and even shes better IMO in PIM…lol.
What platform is this game on? I briefly checked out some stuff and it said Neo-Geo but what specific next gen systems is this game available for?
ROTD is only available for Neo-Geo Aes and Mvs only…
(and mame)…
