Nobody wants a game where everyone’s picking Superman and just doing eye-lasers over and over again. We want to make it viable for everybody.

It’ll be different kinds of characters up there. We’re not nerfing anybody. We’re buffing everybody to go up. The top tier characters, we’re trying to give tools to all the other characters to get them up there, versus ‘let’s nerf this guy here and let’s buff this guy here.’.

definitely my fav quotes have already been posted, that is anything from Death about Supes,

but most dear to me is Tom Brady AKA NRS Promo Shill Menoutis comments about everyone is dirty, there is no low tier, all characters are viable bla bla bla etc.


OH OH How about this one from pre release, circa PL, Brady etc.

You know, almost all of these quotes were fine guesses for the time.

I mean Cyborg really was broken when he could IAFB that hit mid. It seemed like he was even more OP back when he had unblockable Target Aquired and such. Nobody should be being blown up for that guess.

The quote about Superman and Bane's trait vs Batman and Flash's is kind of true. Can you imagine Superman with Batman or Flash trait? I would straight up quit the game lol.

The quote about cyborg's trait being broken if he had a long stun state move might have been right, but he obviously doesn't have one.

Lex could have very well been broken, he's verrrry borderline. He's decently low tier but with just a few small buffs he could be broken.




Also I don't think calling that Chris G will be a top player is something you can say "wow he was dead on!" about. That guy is top at EVERY fighting game, haha.

It's true that Cyborg beat a number of characters for free when IAFB hit mid, but he also lost or went even in a number of matchups. He was never Kabal/Cyrax Tier like he was predicted to be, even pre mid-hit patch.

Mid Tier
"Green Arrow's real tier list placement is bottom 10. Chris G is just better than us and makes him look good. But tier lists are supposed to be based on us random players and our shitty online experience. Also his super isn't that good because it costs 4 bars of meter and people can clash the follow up."
-Every GA player
No self respecting Arrow player has ever said he is bottom 10. But Chris G is the only one to place well with him because he is that good, and can over come the bad match ups with superior play, but he still plays BA for the really bad ones. But he has the balls to take on Aquaman, for that, respect, for playing Black Adam, burn in hell.



Side note, I remember saying some time in Feburary that I thought the walk speeds were gonna hurt the game because everyone looked so fuckin slow, I just can't remember if it was this site or not lol.

So if you aren't USING his tools...he in fact then has no tools. You can only reliably use lightning from 3 quarter to full screen. Zoners will never let you get it out reliably. Same with black magic it's startup is slow. Even if they can't zone they can jump safely from full screen to midscreen. You can try to trade a dive kick, but thats about it.

What do you do to reverse pressure?

His two problems : Jumpers, and no GTFO. Thus back to my original problem :p


I am just highlighting them. We will solve them I am sure.

Lol, dude, The only option Black adam has to get out of pressure is to pretty much poke cancel into a special. If the opponents strings have ANY sort of pushback, Black adam can do shit to either punish or stop them from doing an advancing attack. His normals have SHORT range. Play superman. How does Adam deal with F23 spam?

6frames is great, but it's a 6 frame T-rex arm bitch slap which is covered by the universal action of crouching and poking. Almost all of his options are beat by that.

If I am playing a black adam, my strategy is going to be jump from full screen cause there is pretty much nothing he can do but dive kick and I can potentially win that air to air and if I don't, BA is still closer to me than I started. Once I get in, I can poke him to death, and there is virtually nothing he can do but try to d1 special me. Even if he backdashes, I just get to jump again. Once that D2 gets stuffed a few times and full combo punished, it's hard to warrant throwing it out :p

That thread is full of gold

Please list the mad options. I have tried my best to show you that up close he doesn't have many options. I have done my best to tell you that he doesn't have many options against jumpers.


Joker is a damn good character man. He got slept on hard. His setups are nuts.

lol I was joking. :)

His tips vs Doomsday were all good of course. But we just didn't really consider that Doomsday players would level up too. I think PL showed why Doomsday played right is still a top character and isn't falling off any tier list any time soon. If anything, he is rising on the tier list.
