Pre-Patch Top 5 Guesses?

Who do you think will be top tier after the nerf hammer is dropped? Obviously most of us don't know the details of the patch, but lets see who's the closest to predicting the strongest characters before it comes.

1. Catwoman
2. Batgirl
3. Martian Manhunter
4. Superman
5. Aquaman

Post your lists! I feel like if the top tier is castrated, then the upper mid tier will rise by default, especially if they get slight buffs.

I think Batgirl, MMH and Zod will be very strong. I also don't think Aquaman, WW or Batman will be hit as hard as Black Adam or Superman considering they're not usually the focus of complaints.

Of course it's just a guess. We'll just have to wait and see what the patch holds for us.

Dead Kings Rise
They won't nerf flash because they've buffed him every patch.
Batgirl
Aquaman
MMH
They will go full retard and give Lex a retarded buff.

I only use characters with wakeup scoops.
Assuming these characters wont get further nerfed and that the characters on the nerf train get nerfed to the ground (I personally think Superman will still be top 5, just like Kung Lao was for most of MK's post patch cycle)

1. Martian Manhunter
2. Batgirl
3. Aquaman
4. Killer Frost
5. Doomsday

YES!
Lots of weird information/rumors going around. Shits going to be crazy

i still think Superman will be top 5 though if not the best in the game, his rumored changes don't sound like they are effecting what really makes him ridiculous

Sérieusement Sabrewulf peut aller en enfer.
Sinestro (if he gets buffed too much he's gonna tear shit up)
Batman (there's not much complaining about him vs other top chars...he'll be untouched probably)
Zod (ditto Batman)
Wonder Woman (ditto Batman)
Black Adam (he's gonna get nerfed, but he'll likely still have the dumb reverse dickkick setups & other stupid shit)

I also think Bane, Cyborg, & Lex will be top 10.

An indirect nerf to Superman would be placing the characters further away on round start. No more BEGIN! F23

If they really nerf black adam and supes and leave aquaman alone then aquaman will be #1.
Took the words right out of my mouth. If Aquaman does get nerfed, though, expect Batman and Batgirl to be on the way up in a big way. Wonder Woman and GL will probably go untouched too, and be showing stronger after the patch.

Nothing to say on MMH and Zod, though it's pretty clear that they're characters that need to be watched. Sinestro is real damn close to making himself a very dominant quantity, depending on whether his bad matches get the minor tweaks they need.
