Tier List

[V27reaper]

What are yalls tier lists so far?

[KDQ | domaug]

i'm liking where Redacted and Markman fall on the tier list. pretty much where i expected (Markman with the notable edge over Redacted).

[n1ch]

My personal Tier list.
S:Dive, Kick(Awesome specials, nice speed, all MUs are even(Stream 7-3, Jefailey 7-3) IMO)
A+:Kung Pao, Dr. Shoals(Nice moving abilities, good MUs)
A:S-kill(Not higher becouse of teleporting frames and bad MU vs. Baz(No parry, and Baz can trap him in TP pretty ez)And not lower becouse of Parry, fast meter building)
B:Markman, Redacted, Uncle Sensei, Mr.N(They all just middle tier, nothing special)
C:The Baz(I think Baz have some potential, good anti-air special, but Air special is bad and easy counterable), Kenny(Randomness, nuff said)
D:Stream, Jefailey(They just worst. Awful specials and Jefailey's head hitbox is getting bigger after he wins)
It's just my opinion, dont take it serious.
Discuss.

It really seems with The Baz that people feel he is terrible or really good. Seems it just comes down to match ups and luck of the kick. He can really keep the opponent out of the air if played in a certain way.
Kung Pao at first glance doesn't seem good, but her kick can be easily underestimated. I really don't like using her, but I like it less going against someone who really knows how to use her well.
What gems do yall usually use? I seem to just use the kick gem all the time. Meter gain seems to be really good if thats your strategy. Does anyone ever use the Dive gem? That just affects your jumpin, right?

[Swashbuckler Limey]

Baz feels like he can be very good or very bad from what I've played so far as Shoals, if I don't have the meter to cancel a dive then I can sometimes be caught out, I have to really commit to non flight cancelable dives vs Baz

^ THIS, right here, yup. I also feel like i am forced to push in hard when Baz players start off the match by chargin that meter up. I CAN;T LET DAT HAPPEN, GO AWAY FULL METER BAZ, I DON'T WANT YOU ON MY COMPUTER SCREEN. Full meter baz is god tier.

Yeah, as an S-Kill player, I really like running Meter Gain because it allows me to have enough meter to Parry after only 2 kicks instead of 3, which is pretty darn nice when his lowest and fastest meter-building kick is still pretty slow.
Special note goes out to YOLO Gem, though, which is pretty hilarious to use against Jefailey players because if you get that headshot (which is probably easier than not at that point), you're pretty much guaranteed chain headshots until you win.

I meter battled against a Baz as Dive once (Him meter gem, me kick gem).

I'd inch towards him to force him to move to the other side if he wanted to keep building meter or die. Never caught him, but he never caught me. First round I won the line cause he launch himself too far. Second round, we both got kickfactor roughly the same time, but I got mine right after him(He launched himself at me to get kickfactor in typical baz fashion, and me as Dive I knew I could jump over him normally, so I waited until I could kick for kickfactor), and everytime he tried to smack himself into me, I'd fly off the screen and out of his range. He could never touch me as I jumped over him 3 times easy, then his kickfactor would run out and mine was still in play, and I'd smash his face in.

We did this dance twice, then he gave up building meter and came at me. Oh man that didn't work for him at all. I think he got bazually frustrated from my Dive Trolling.

I don't even play Dive on ranked, that was an accidental pick. But that match was hilarious and worked out in my favor.

Divekick is way more about matchups than straight up Tier listing when it comes down to it, but sometimes thinking outside the box can still work in your favor, even in a game with 2 buttons.

[V27reaper]

Man, I didn't even mention yolo gems. I don't got the balls for dat. Maybe once I go pro, hahaa.
And I will keep that in mind for S-Kill, as I wanna start using him later on. When I first got the game, I thought him to be top, tier, and especially after watching

[V27reaper]

And yea, it is more about match ups, and more about reaction and descision making, of when to dive kick, and when to not! But then it can get really really complicated in your head within milliseconds. I like Shoals the most cuz you got that extra action if you need it while in the air, opens up possibilities.

[Darxio]

Adelheid's S-Kill is beastly, but what wasn't show in that video there is the match after, where she got double frauded in loser's finals to Kick with kick gem(If I recall correctly).

Basically Mean Saltine kickbacked after every attempt to punish and Adelheid couldn't get a kill.

With all the practice everyone has put in, she probably knows what to do in that situation now, but it's probably still a bad situation for S-Kill.

[Shin Kerm]

I can't fully bring myself to pick an absolute main yet. I find that after every match I switch characters. Almost every match. That's something I love about this game. Call me crazy but sometimes I have a better time with Jefailey than The Baz. Maybe it's because a lot of people try to dive right in for the kill. That's the beauty of this game though. I love getting that meter built up with Jefailey. As for S-Kill? I just started playing him today and I love his parry. I sometimes feel it can be a little too easy with Shoals though. Maybe that's just me. :/

[dAD]

^^ totes agree. this game is such a strange addiction and pull. a big reason is because of the matchups and how you "feel" as a certain character at that moment. it's hard to pick one. i usually cycle between 3 - 4

[Scrub]

I think Mr. N should be a bit higher on lists, his air special is really, really good, and can be plinked to help it last like 3 to 4 times as long. This can really mess with someone, he also has the fastest non KF kick in the game (outside of Baz).

[Fooj Da1nOnly]

Dive should move up a little, and Stream and Baz should probably switch places, even though I don't really feel like Stream is so bad of a character that he needs to be at the very bottom - there are some very good Streams out there.

[Man of Cin]

Man, Baz with a white gem is pretty great. And only reason I'm using the white gem is because I've gotten used to the speed that he kicks without the blue, and he still builds pretty high meter. Ground special is awesome, air special is completely unnecessary, but once the bar is filled, game over.
