DAMMIT I HATE SPIDERMAN!
:angryfire: :angryfire: :angryfire: :angryfire: :angryfire: :vampv:

TarkanX 08-03-2002 05:39 PM

I'd rather have Spider than a dumb ass low tier shoto.

Roll 08-03-2002 05:47 PM

1) Guy isn't a shoto....
2) Not ALL shoto's are low tiers...

PARADISE-X 08-03-2002 05:58 PM

Like Roll said Guy is not a shot. so isnt Sakura.She's just a wannabe a ryu(dont belive me go check sfalpha the movie)

TarkanX 08-03-2002 05:59 PM

Well it's true not all shoto's are low tier.

MvC2
----------
Ken: almost top 3rd tier
Sakura: middle 3rd tier
Ryu: bottom 3rd tier
Akuma: bottom 3rd tier or top 4th tier
Dan: lowest tier

PARADISE-X 08-03-2002 06:03 PM

What the hell are u talking about

TarkanX 08-03-2002 06:25 PM

Nothing you'll ever know

akuma_forever 08-03-2002 06:30 PM

AKUMA!!!

SSJKarma 08-03-2002 09:12 PM

TIERS are like RANKS...
THEY DONT PROVE ANYTHING !

if your good with a char then he is above the other tier for you...

the way you placed them in TarkanX, is YOUR point of view not mine !
i see shotos high above the other chars...

Tantum 08-03-2002 09:39 PM

Ken is, and always has been the best Shoto...i think if TMy wants to add a shoto, Ken should be next, Akuma is too much like Ryu.

Personally, even though Ken is my favorite character...
I think TMy should add another 2-3 chars before putting Ken in the game... 2-3 W/O counting spidey... i'd like to see... Gambit, Cammy, and Magneto... the game is too laggy to put Rogue, or Sabertooth in yet.

after those three...

Ken, Charlie, Iceman, Juggernaught, Storm. and i think Akuma should be one of the last characters added to the game. i like akuma, but TMy would not be able to put in raging demon, not in this lag, it would never work.. you could never land it.

Tiers just don't mean ranks, tiers is placed on how much a character dominates. Roll and Dan or lowest tier because they don't dominate at all....

It's not like if you stick a newbie Cable player vs the greatest Dan player, it's about how much a character dominates.

Shoto's aren't top tier, and that is a fact, you might think shoto's are the best, but you haven't fiercely tried out the other characters as the shotos, maybe you should think about that for a while....

By the way if you want the tier list:

MvC2:
-------
Great Top Tier(in no particular order):
---------
Magneto
Sentinel
Storm
Cable

Middle Top tier:
---------
Strider/Doom
Spiral
Dr Doom
Strider

Low Top tier:
---------
Black Heart
Iron Man(he could be considered very top of 2nd tier or last of top tier)

DX Zero 08-03-2002 10:07 PM

i dont like shotos much in MVC2
except for Dan and Akuma.. but Akuma has no defense..
But Dan... hes Unpredictable, so that pretty much makes him the best shoto :D

princevegetam 08-04-2002 08:35 AM

mm.. i like akuma and ken cause i'm good with them. sakura, i'm okay with. akuma isn't too bad. but i love ken's shinryuken. that move is probrably one of my favourite move in xmvssf. it's useful against gambit users who jump all over the place. plus, it looks cool. yep, that shinryuken attack is good, i like using it(even if i always miss, lol).

I've seen SFAlpha the movie, and she's not a 'wannabe' ryu. She just started fighting because of Ryu. but if that makes her a wannabe.. then... *coughseancough* :sigh:

SSJKarma 08-04-2002 09:48 AM

that exactly what i said TarkanX.
you just prove me that what i said is true !

your top tiers for MvsC2 are the chars that YOU prey for !
Magneto = isn't it you that wanted the most that he was the next char ?
storm = againt you wanted her so much !

stop saying tiers are good cause if i play with DAN HIBIKI and YOU play with magneto, i can still whoop your ass ! so like i said there is no particular tiers, just better player !

and for your guess I HATE PLAYING THE SAME CHAR TWICE !
so YESSSSSS ! I PLAYED ALL THE CHARS IN MvsC2 !

there is only 1 char i could play alot and that is servbot !
but it seems that my friends don't like the tiny one !

PARADISE-X 08-04-2002 03:01 PM

Very funny Roll :lol: ,Sean was trained by Ken,the way of shotokan.Sakura doesnt know "the way of shotokan"lol.Shes looked at Ryu moves, thats it.She didnt learned anything.

I use to do shotokan (not that fun)and u aff to do the right position

TarkanX 08-04-2002 04:57 PM

Okay understand this

Tier means how much a characters dominates

Rank means where your placed



Let's say if I were fighting back in the day(during ToC1), against McBeth when he was in 1st place... who would win in a best of 5 match?


rank only means where your placed, not how well you dominate, theres a really huge difference.

SSJKarma 08-04-2002 06:22 PM

i never said it was same as ranks, i said "LIKE" ranks. as in, ranks doesn't mean anything... someone who is 1st can be beaten by someone who is 10000th. same goes for tiers, people can beat someone who is real good with MAGNETO and still get beaten by someone who use DAN !

tiers aren't something that can be use for everyone cause everyone make their own tiers depending on how they play and on how they know the chars !

you say magneto is in top tiers... in my place i see it in lower tiers cause i cant seems to be able to play with him ! like i said, i have as much chance to dominate all the others with DAN then you with magneto... it is all a question of view ! and nothing else !

Troy88 08-04-2002 06:44 PM

Tarkan, you need to lose this obsession with "tiers." There is no way that you could possibly prove this theory, ever. Even if you were to take statistics from tournaments on who the finalists use, that proves nothing. Some of the best players don't even participate in tournaments, or even go to the arcades, for that matter. In fact, some of the best players probably sit around at home and practice insane combos on their Dreamcast all day and all night. But you'd never know it, would you? For all you know, they might very well be able to beat Magneto or Sentinal with ease, with one of the characters you consider to be "low tier."

What I find ironic is, most of the characters that you consider to be "high tier," are the ones that most of us regard as cheap (e.g. Storm, Cable). Giving "cheap" an honorable sounding name like "high tier" doesn't change what it is. And if you were truly as good of a player as you try to portray yourself, then you wouldn't need only "high tier" characters in your team, would you? A truly skilled fighter should be able to use everyone equally well. I'm with Karma 100%.

TarkanX 08-04-2002 06:47 PM

Okay yes a low tier can beat a top tier, that is true, but if you matched up two of the best players in the world, one chooses magneto, the others chooses Dan in a best of 10, the Magneto player would win, that's how tiers are made, how dominant a character is....

If they think they were the best players around, they'd prove that wouldn't they... even if there was no arcade in their area, or they had no computers to play ROMS, they could just bring their consoles to other peoples houses. As for now, the characters that I stated are top tier.

They aren't cheap

*sigh* I do use low tier characters, but only for fun uses, if you were in the national tournament finals in MvC2(particularly evolution 2002), and you were to win 10,000 dollars, wouldn't you use top tier characters?

And besides I use characters that aren't top tier in a real fight, like 2nd tier characters like CapCom, Psylocke, Cammy, War Machine, etc... I also use 3rd tier characters like Ken, and Jin.

TarkanX 08-04-2002 07:10 PM

I'll explain why top tiers arent cheap:

Magneto: Just play keep away with him/run away from him, and don't get trapped in his rush down, that's the only reason why Magneto is probably the best in the game.

Sentinel: he's a big character so you can just get near him, and make sure he isn't on top of you

Storm: She'll always run away, and try to get you in an infinite, but she lacks defense, she always goes up in the air playing keep away, and traps with you, just get in the air before she does, and don't make a wrong move

Cable: he relies on AHVB so much. So just don't make any wrong moves. Cable does great chip damage, and has an easy guard brake(up, and HP). He always tries to play mind games with you, and always plays keep away, just get near him all the time, and always stay near him.

Spiral: She might seem cheap to everyone, but she can be stopped. Spiral usually teams up with Sent for the Spiral Sent trap which has incredible chip damage. so always play keep away, and watch out for her teleportation.

Dr Doom: He has the best assist in the game, but Dr Doom isn't much of a threat even though he has great supers, and easily gets the super meter up. Fight him like you do other 2nd tier characters

Strider: Strider is a threat just like spiral, he'll use Dr Doom as his partner for the Strider/Doom trap which does the best chip damage. He'll use Oroubus, and then come to you, if you go back, he'll teleport behind you like spiral. play keep away with strider since he doesn't have keep away attacks. He'll always play mind games with you(with his bird, and Doom), so always stay above him.

Black Heart: just fight Black Heart like you do 2nd tier characters, he isn't much of a threat as he used to be

Iron Man: Just fight him like you do War Machine, and watch out for his infinites.

Right... and that happened when/where?

SSJKarma 08-04-2002 08:28 PM

TarkanX: try and understand US a little, i understand you but i still say that TIERS are something created by people for THEIR POV not YOUR !

it isn't because you saw that moview where the guy was in a tourney and fought with magneto that he has to be third tier ! anyone of us can go in a tournament and use a FAKE char like DAN HIBIKI and win that same tournament !

in a tourney you use the char that you know the most not the char that you don't play at all !

example:
you (TarkanX) and I (SSJKarma) go and fight in a tournaments (MvsC2)... we fought and we both are in final (we beated about 25 opponent each before our fight) then i decide to choose storm and you choose magneto then i get beated for what reason ? i am not that good with her, so i choose DAN HIBIKI (your lowest tier char) i whoop your ass 9/10 times (the first being me with storm)...

now i ask you, who dominated who in this ?

you see that's exactly my point, THERE IS NO TIERS in FIGHTING games, caused it all depend on the player, not the chars !

*sigh* it just isn't watching tournament movies, and going to the arcade seeing people use magneto or cable, it's how much priority a character has. Dan has no special priority, Magneto does, Cables does, Spiral does, Storm does, etc.... Roll doesn't have special priority

It's like CvS2, Sagat is top tier, and he has a lot of priority because of his crouching fierce, just like Blanka, and Vega(clawed spaniard).

Quote:

In a tourney, if you play to win, you use the character that has the best chance of winning.

It could happen, but I'm pretty good with Mag, but it could happen(if you were the best Dan player, and I didn't know much about Mag, or I knew a little bit of what Mag has in store against other characters)

Quote:

I keep saying this and I'll say it again.

Let's say the best Guile user vs the best Zangief user faced eachother in SF2: TWW, who would win? Guile would win. you know why? Zangief can't do anything about it. Guile does a sonic boom, Zangief jumps, then Guile does a flash kick, Zangief gets knocked down. It'll keep happening like that. Zangief can't beat Guile if Guile keeps doing that, since the sonic boom has good length as a projectile, and the flash kick has great air priority. That's how tiers are used. Not by how much one person has dominance over another, but how much priority the have.


There's no point in going on like this, your not going to listen, let's just end it.....


Edit: I frgot how Zangief had the spnning lariat which he could dodge fireballs, but even if he did have it, Guile would just trip Zangief.

SSJKarma 08-05-2002 11:14 AM

Have you ever notice how much times it takes to guile to charge is sonic boom ? and is flash kick ? ZANGIEF WILL SIMPLY HAVE ALL THE TIME HE NEED TO ATTACK AND GET CLOSE... it all depends on how you play the chars and you simply saying exactly what i am saying... it's ALL IN THE PLAYERS NOT THE CHARS !

if guile only do that, is it guile who does it, NOOOOO it's the player behind it ! so even if he has priority over anything the char isn't perfect cause there will always be a PLAYER behind it... THERE IS NO BETTER CHARACTERS ONLY BETTER PLAYERS !

now you're right for this... this will never end !
but let me say this and i'll stop talking about it.
YOUR WRONG and I'M RIGHT !

I said the best Guile user in the world, the best Guile user in the world will have enough time to charge into a flash kick, even I can do it.

Jhteck29 08-05-2002 07:38 PM

Summary for confused individuals: this has nothing to do with the topic

Neither shoto should be next b/c they get boring to play with (for me at least). And just for arguments sake, how come top-tier characters are always the most used in the arcades? It's not cause they're the best, it's b/c you can keep away easily or combo easily or use awesome supers. It doesn't predict who will win a match, the tier system, only who chose a character who has some easy way to avoid, combo, etc.

DX Zero 08-05-2002 08:27 PM

NO I AM RIGHT!

I SAY UR BOTH RIGHT! :lol:
