The most broken characters in (competitive) fighting games

Indeed it does. And yeah, there’s tons of broken supports, but I was mostly just referring to the Battle characters. The only Supports that are banned by the GameFAQs (basically the biggest english JUS community, or it was, it’s kind of dead these days) are Trunks 3, Seiya 3 and Sena 3, and Seiya is only banned because he’s like Trunks-lite, and if he wasn’t everyone would use him instead of Trunks.

Nishino 3 (the whistle girl) is a bit overpowered but not quite broken. It’s definitely whatever tier is right below those 3 others though. Hibari 3 (the guy that throws you off the ledge) is small time. using just about any offensive Support will break you out of his grip.

Wrong. So fucking wrong.

"Blazing Fist (Normal Mode) - 236 + A/B/C
The World unleashes a flurry of punches.
Without Stand ON, The World goes out to a distance depending on which
attack button you use. Without Stand ON, this move can’t be done in the air.
This move is highly punishable when used across the screen. When used during pressure, this move can lead to a 50/50 game versus the opponent. You can either do dash 1A or dash j.A/B/C after doing 236 C. Be aware though the opponent can pushblock the special and punish with a super.

Blazing Fist (Stand Mode) - 236 + A/B/C
The World unleashes a flurry of punches.
During this period of time, Dio can’t move independently and is tied close behind The World.
Depending on which attack button you use, The World will move a certain distance.
Tapping attack buttons makes this move last longer.
At high levels of play this move is highly punishable and unless you know it will lead to knockdown DO NOT use the ground version of this move. The opponent can punish this move by ground teching, then doing a super. On prediction it can be used as an anti-air to knock someone out of jump start up. Air version works sometimes as a way to surprise the opponent and control space, but should only be used in small amounts."

Correct.

Also, Dio isn’t even the strongest character in the game. Why not complain about the God characters, Jotaro or Kakyoin, or maybe, just maybe, complain about the one character that is considered to be BEYOND GOD TIER, Petshop. Petshop is considered to be beyond God Tier by the competitive community in Japan, if you didn’t know.

Impossible, Za Warudo uses all of the meter and takes at least 3 meter to use it. There is no infinite supers cheat. Also, 2 seconds is a long ass time for start up that’s 120 frames of start up. Even then Za Warudo has more start up time than that, so I don’t see how you could complain, the move is super punishable. Ex:[media=youtube]EfW5zqDdWIc#t=4m09s[/media] The Dio player goes for Za Warudo twice and gets punished both times.

Also, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure still has tournaments in Japan, 10 years after its release. How does this game not count as competitive?

Yes, yes you are. Here’s a small shiny object, go have fun with it :smiley:

Were you trying to argue that Dio was broken if someone was cheating through online?

I tried to describe how stupid of an argument that would be, but your argument is beyond a describable level is stupid.

Did you like, not even notice that you are talking about a completely different game than I was?

I think I stopped playing after seeing the 10th Dio hacker online. I remember some other broken characters, but not on Tai/Dio/Yus/Hiei level.

You can break out of Hibari? Well there goes that one.

I want to stop laughing but the tears keep coming.

We are talking about the same game and character, Dio in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure (abbreviated JJBA). Just to quote you:

Not JoJo, Jump Ultimate Stars.

Or you could perhaps try reading the entire post.

Fuck me. Alright well, talking about Dio in the context of JJBA made me think otherwise. Also, I have never even heard about Jump Ultimate Stars. Sorry.

good hustle still

the most broken character in gaming history is setting joe higashi as your striker character in the king of fighters

gdlk everything

Hilde.

But my personal broken character is the created character from mortal kombat armageddon, with those god damn infinite combos…

Telling you from personal experience you are so, so wrong.

I wish I could play as the Giant Statue in SCIII. Every move is unblockable (including lazers and the ability to punt you out of the ring), he has zero hit stun, and a shitload of health. The best part about him though is when he dies, he can still K.O. his opponent by falling on him.

^^^ That could go in the AI thread, maybe. Definitely not here. The statue isn’t playable in any “competitive” version of SC3.

Jump Ultimate Stars is a Smash-style game for DS in which you can play as a bunch of different Shonen Jump characters.

Anyhoo, pretty sure the best characters in that were Raoh and Taikobou, but it’s been a while since I checked any sort of tier list.

Raoh is up there, due to having huge damage, huge HP, huge priority and attacking moderately fast, but he also has a lot of easily punishable attacks that the other big men on campus don’t have.

There is no official universally agreed upon tier list, but recently the GF forum had been discussing a Supportless tier list. Here’s the latest version of the list.
