Tiers for obscure games

Uranus was god tier, hella broken. i dunno about the rest

Saw a TINY bit of Primal Rage (remember THAT mess of a game?) in this thread, but not much else. Anyone know anything from that game? I always thought of Talon (the raptor) to be top of the bunch due to actually being (gasp) playable. Fast as hell and damaging, the bugger.

Anyone has a somewhat accurate tier list for DOA4? That game is probably the most erratic game ever when it comes to tiers; in one list Hitomi is top, and in another she’s bottom wtf? All I know is that Hayabusa and Gen Fu are above everyone else. I just can’t say much about everyone else because they might be anywhere on the list (I’m telling you, characters move around the tiers more than Magneto moves around in a MVC2 match).

Ninjas then fuck everybody else.

Golden rule of DOA.

Ninjas rape you.

lol. Also Gen-fu is top tier too I think.

so yeah you’re right, pretty much, ninjas, Gen Fu, then everyone else

Someone post Mortal Kombat: Armageddon tiers. I didn’t give that game enough mind to tier it well, although I remember Shishioh telling me that it was basically Moloch and fuck everyone else.

Anyone want svc chaos tiers?

=)

Fuck yes I do! Lay them on me!

Pick Zero. Win.

LOL my countless hours spent playing svc for all of 04 and most of 05 have some use.

This is going off strictly by all the matches I have played online and off so it’s not perfect but it’s pretty accurate.

It’s skewed because unlike most fighters, a lot of characters are good and viable in tournament play. Outside of VF I can’t name a fighter with more viable characters. The ninjas aren’t all that good once you learn their safe/unsafe moves. Kind of funny how people are mentioning EVO qualified games in a shit game thread. Takes all kinds.:rofl:

for svc, i would personnally rank zero and tessa above geese now. tessa is nearly untouchable. she can actually punish somebody for using gcfs. unblockable bugs and her infinite go a long way too. shes not as bullshit as zero can be though.

i would have disagreed with this until i realized that Offbeat, arguably one of the best three players in the world for this game, mains Ein and just plays super solid and actually knows how to block most of the BS / patiently wait for an opening to 4K counter hit and juggle the crap out of someone, its like watching a good Tekken player

i also find it weird that the mook’s tier list puts Brad above Jann Lee when for all I can tell that matchup is terrible for Brad but what do I know i haven’t tried to play that game seriously in months and all I know is Helena bokuho is dumb :arazz:

also i remember buktooth saying chun was top and right behind zero, tessa, geese and riot iori, when did that change ( in SVC )

Other than links, what much can there be for the SNES version. IIRC you can’t buffer off of normals. The genesis version, let you buffer off of normals, but the timing was really weird.

Earlier post i made in the thread:

I still think the ninjas are the best characters, they’re just so much better than everyone else. Brad is just horrible. Everyone can do the same things he does, but better lol
