Tier list?

[BillHicks]

^?

[Veserius]

Me > everyone else

Edit:

Seriously though it's kind of hard to tell, I think Naomi is better on paper when people get more optimal, but it's Tenchi is a lot easier to play.

S+ tier: Red colors
S- tier: Grey colors
F tier: Orange colors

[Krzysztoφορος | ハリストス復活]

Naomi Tier: Naomi
Tenchi Tier: Tenchi

Tenchi has neutral advantage, Naomi has pressure, mixup, punish, and combo advantage. Though the neutral advantage may be extreme enough to keep the matchup even.

Edit: Also Tenchi has resource advantage since his space control builds meter, whereas Naomi must commit to neutral charge or get a confirm to charge. Charging vs Tenchi fireball zoning is risky and can result in letting Tenchi build his meter.

I'll give my estimated tier list if you want:
SS tier: Quinn. His assumed raw speed and power SHOULD make him rather viable in comp play.
S tier: Parker-his pure speed in sweeps, as well as dodges, and counters (according to https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cardboardrobotgames/pocket-rumble-new-2d-fighting-game-for-pc-and-hand/posts/1446107 ), should make him a tricky character for comp play. Note that this is probably the closest one as parker is coming out next month, and there's a lot of info on him.
June- She is a teleporting zoner with abilities that sound super OP. enough said/ Rip Naiomi.
A tier:
Keiko: I may be a little bias because the character's style is based on jojo and P4A, and i LOVE me some JJBA. however, controlling two characters at once could lead to unbleleivable combos.
-Tenchi - because of his basic style, he is easy enough to play, and as such has more comp petential as people can handle him better. his perfect balance of moves, and chip damage fireball super only seals the deal
-Naiomi - yes i think naiomi is SLIGHTLY, note ONLY SLIGHTLY, worse than tenchi. she has crazy rushdown and combo potential with her "sweep", but the lack of any range means that if you dont keep close and take your opponent down FAST, moves like kick launcher, fireball, any of junes moves, etc, are going to come back to haunt you.
B tier:
Morgana- Forget she existed? i didn't. the spellcasting, card-wielding character is quite shrouded in mystery, but i have to put her a little bit lower than the middle due to the ace mechanic sounding hard to pull off in tourney play. (while he may show up in game, Geiger will not be put on the tier list because he wasn't funded)
Hector- Don't get me wrong, i really like hector! however, to me i think his lack of mobility options means that faster characters like Quinn and Naiomi are going to destroy hector in tourney play.
C Tier:
Subject 11. another character i REALLY like, is my lowest. Why? very simple- I dont think pocket rumble was made for grapplers. I'm sure many will figure out ways to win with him, but in a game so heavy on combos to deal damage, when all of your specials are command grabs, it just makes them feel like a very limited character.

After the past few days, I'd say Naomi is better than Tenchi. If the Naomi is playing really well, it's difficult to even get in with Tenchi. Tenchi really has to make a lot of smart calls to hit Naomi, and zoning only does so much with chip. You basically just get your meter and then try to get a super to connect.

tenchi should not even be trying to get in on naomi.

Also, why does this thread exist? lol

People need to justify why they're losing, probably.

[Wedge]

Currently the whopping two character are both broke as ♥♥♥♥ and the game isn't remotely balanced. But it plays ok and the netcode implementation seems awright, so who cares.

It really doesn't matter when naomi can just rush punch in with really no capability of getting out, out of the two, she is easily the most broken one i think :/

Yep, came to this thread thinking that people would be saying that Tenchi is slightly better than Naomi. Just turns out I'm incredibly predictable and easy manipulated by fireball pressure, and I'm not using her mixup capabilities properly.

[send da video]

As the only Naomi I've ever seen, can confirm Tenchi's neutral is stupid.

Think of it as "Marvel balance"

[Aya Senpai]

More like Guilty gear balance but yeah....You guys should have seen when there was almost no way for Naomi to beat tenchi. Then you would have something to complain about as a naomi player lol.

Only if he gets you block a fireball at 3/4 screen from eachother, then you can't safely charge, or jump > land > charge.

If tench is about to get super you can just let it happen (if you think he'll commit) and stand FULL screen, then

1 jump fireball
2 charge
3 immediately block FB, take chip damage
4 jump 2 times till chip blinker runs out
5 land, get a 1 stock of EX Meter
6 repeat 1-5, or go in

If Tenchi keeps chucking fireballs I think you get free full EX fullscreen, even if he psychic Supers your EX Charge, you can immediately land > block/pillar to avoid chip.
