Add me to play some Puzzle Fighter, i’m officially addicted ;]
so now that its rebalanced what are the new tiers?
I’ll let somebody else do a full list for this, but here’s my impression of the top tier…
Chun/Akuma/Ken/Donovan
Chun: The new damage scaling makes her combos hurt. it matters less that her counter gems aren’t the best.
Akuma: best counter gem pattern. hes been highly buffed in that he does 100% damage now. slight con is that he now takes 120% damage.
Ken: Same ol ken. a nice balance between Chun and Akuma in that he has a great counter gem pattern, and that he takes/gives normal damage.
Donovan: Slightly worse counter gem pattern than Ken.
I completed the motherload achievement a few days back. I ended up using Dan, using Ken I was killing off the CPU far too quickly. I had to allow the CPU to send a reasonable sized combo my way before I could build a block that was big enough to unlock the achievement. I found 3x9 the easiest to build most times. Then again, people with previous experience with the game could probably build that twice as quick as me!
Fun games to Edybox if you post here, I had to double my play speed to last those extra 40 seconds against you!
Im enjoying this game, come at a nice time now that I dont play GeoWars, Zuma or Lumines anymore.
That Mother Lode shit is way too hard. I keep trying but I can’t seem to get the gems I want to drop.
TOP 3 baby!! Holla!!!..I use Ryu most of the time…his new pattern makes him more efficient. I agree that Akuma and Ken (as always) are top tiers…well add me if you guys wanna play, take care
Added ya bokbok.
grr… i gotta learn your secret. I think i played you once and got totally owned.
I dunno, Ryu seems up there for me, more so than Donovan. when people pick akuma…just pick Chun li 120+120…nice nice nice.
I don’t play as much as I should, after oen night I was top 100, but I fell out since then I’m sure.
As for achievements - pick Devilot, she drops 80% - makes it MUCH easier to ‘not’ kill the computer. Only achievements left for me are the host a 4 player match always do ranking and the 5/7 chain. There is a trick with the motherload gem. It doesn’t have to be one huge gem. You can chain together 3x3 to a 2x2 to a 6x2, etc.
Anyone else get the gltich where you get justo ne color for a match? I got all double yellows until the piece before the diamond red bomb/yellow then a yellow/diamon. Happend other times with blue and green.
- :bluu:
I agree with this. Ryu is definitely high up there. I have more trouble fighting him now than the rest of the cast. He’s easily higher than Donovan and I think he may even edge out Ken. The reordered colors in Ryu’s 3rd row breaks up a lot of his weaknesses that he had in the original. It’s tougher to build really tall blocks uninterrupted because of it and a yellow in the columns 3-5 won’t take out all of column 4 to protect you anymore because there’s always a green after 2 or 3 layers of yellow.
If I had to rank them I’d probably go:
Ryu
Ken
Chun-Li
Donovan/Anita
Akuma
Hsien-Ko/Mei-Ling
Morrigan/Bat Morrigan
Devilot
Sakura
Felicia
Dan
Ryu/Ken and Akuma/Donovan debatable.
Right on…and yeah, I use Ryu to counter Ken…there are couple of ppl that I’ve played who try to counter Ryu pretty well, only because they know his pattern very well. Just got to hit Ken hard in the beginning, if you dont succeed with a victory, its still your advantage at times when they try to break small for safety, then its RED RED RED! hehe. What really got me hooked on Ryu is his different SUPERS that they added. Its really just for amusement but his dragonpunch super is sweeeeeet!
Good games bokbok. Too good! Got my ass kicked pretty bad. Hopefully, I gave you at least a decent challenge. I need to try to change up my playstyle a little bit against you. Build on the sides more and go one step behind you, maybe? At least that’s what I think you did. Too busy worrying about my screen to notice much.
Yeah man, definitely GGs! And just as you thought, I build on the sides most of the time, hehe. Hope to see you online some other times man, take care
whats up people…
i am totally new to puzzle fighter so got some few questions.
im usin sakura right now, and i see people pickin devilot and akuma and as i look at their drop patterns they make me fuggin cry. everyone else i can kinda plan ahead for.
when i look at the tier lists u guys put up theyre obviously not broke secret characters like magical drop and shit, but what are their drawbacks that i need to handle?
my tag is x MrQuotes x in case u guy didnt know.
Counter-drop wise, Devilot and Akuma r0x0rz your b0x0rz, but the problem is that:
Akuma = he counter drops @ 100% normal drop rate, but takes damage at 120%.
Devilot = Drops at 85% norman, takes 100%.
That’s why they aren’t God Tier.
cool thanks for the help
I was playing this game against my little brother, he like to use sakura, lei-lei and devilot. goddamn its tough to counter devilot. is it a smarter option to just try and roll with it as opposed to going out of my way to counter her weird diagonal pattern?
A little of both actually…players who use akuma and devilot often break quickly in the beginning just because it gets in their way for building patterns or just to confuse your build. But what its all about is being able to build fast…when the other player breaks small on you, build on that if you seem comfortable with it…if not, then just focus on your own built patterns…if you play slower than the other player, just make sure you have several big gems to break as a counter…and most importantly, just keeping the middle open and build on the sides…its not always about building the gem at convenience spots, you have to worry about defending yourself from the quick big attackers.
p.s. everyone has their own strategy and a style of playing…this is just my point of view. I play differently against different players. GL!
god damn
I just got this and played somebody online and I got raped badly.
I hope not everybody is capable of building multiple gems within just a few seconds due to quick placements like that guy was or I don’t think I am gonna even have a chance to win
