im sure that a perfect execution cyborg can't with the trade war with sinestro

The problem is that Sinestro's fireball is fast enough that he can get one and trade pretty much whenever he wants, and when he trades he gets a knockdown(because Cyborg gets knocked out of the air while doing iaNB) and has time to continue zoning or charge trait or do whatever to continue his offense. It's really hard for Cyborg to keep up or get anything going, especially once Sinestro gets trait up. Probably not 2-8 imo, but could easily be 3-7


Cyborg probably has more really bad, nearing unwinnable match ups than any other character in the game. He has some good match ups as well, but I think Ares is the only character that's comparable when it comes to match ups bad enough that you can't really hope to overcome them with counterpicking if they end up in your way in tournament

You obviously don't know what you are talking about.
No one does.
How many characters did you play to be able to judge all that?

1- Too many tiers.
2- The Joker players themselves say he's good enough yet everyone puts him at the bottom by proxy.
3- Nightwing isn't that good but he's certainly higher than C tier.
4- Killer frost has only one losing match-up according to the KF community I think? That certainly is better than B+
5- You say "i think anyone upper mid tier or higher is viable maybe even some of the lower mids" but let's see the C tier: Nightwing got 9th at FR, Catwoman 2nd, Ares made top 8, Shazam won a tourney, Chris G places rather well with Green Arrow.

GTFO.

Broken Tier: MMH, Zod, Bane, Aquaman, Sinestro, Lex, Hawkgirl

Solid Picks: Superman, Black Adam, Batman, Flash, WoWo, Batgirl, Shazam, Doomsday, GL

Deadly in the right hands: Sodium Grundy, Cyborg, NW, CW, GA, Raven, Harley, DS, Scorpion, Zatanna, Lobo

Probably just counter picks: Ares, Joker, KF

Just want to clarify that this is set in stone! Also Broken Tier doesn't mean I think those are the best in the game. They just have mechanics that I feel give them an advantage over most of the cast. Solid picks is pretty self explanatory. Those guys will always do well at any Tournament. "Deadly in the right hands" is my favorite group, because its hard to tell where these chars fit sometimes. They have the most potential imo. I don't think these chars are "bad", they just have to put in a lot more work to get the W against the other two tiers. Like Tyrants Grundy for example. He's literally the only top placing Grundy player. If he didn't play him people would probably say Grundy is ass, but when he does he looks like a Top 5 character. The smartest player in the IGAU tournament scene imo.

No tier list is ever set in stone. I'm sure there are a few exceptions, but I doubt the tier list of Injustice will be one.
I think Hawkgirl, Lex and Shazam should be moved down a little bit, but that's just me.

Notice: Your thread has been merged with the other tier list thread that has been made earlier.

But he's Chris G.... He'd probably place well with anyone

Do not listen to them they are wrong and are the laughing stock of the community still to this day. I do not know why there hasn't been some kind of 'Fool of the week' segment on them

lol at this list. This is not a 50 tier game...Huge amount of characters on an even tier after the top 2 or 3 characters.

But martian manhunter is broken lol his worst matchup is lex which you only get in NYC, he also is just plain broken and I can't see how you can put MMH and Aquaman and Zod in the same tier when martian beats everyone and zod and Aquaman aren't neither as dominate

I have said this before, Injustice is a game full of all good characters. Some characters are better than others but there are not useless characters. Cyborg, hawkgirl etc.. are utility characters meaning that they are used to cover matchups that other characters struggle with. For example sinestro struggles against aquaman but hawkgirl does well in that matchup so i'll use her against aquaman.
Also, some characters are unexplored such as zatanna or lobo. Most characters are not completely flushed out (maybe a few are)

Better? Originally I had them separated into 7 tiers but 5 works just as well.

Written List:

S: MMH, WW, Zod
A: BM, BG, AM, Flash, Sinestro, SM, Raven
B: Bane, BA, GL, KF, Zatanna, DS, HQ, CW
C: DD, NW, Lobo, LL, HG, SG
D: Ares, Shazam, GA, Scorpion, Joker, Cyborg


The way I see it is anyone A tier and up could potentially take a tournament at any time without the need for a secondary. People in B tier could win if given the right bracket. People in C tier could win but have some badly lopsided MUs and so would usually require a secondary. Characters in D tier have mostly losing MUs against most of the cast. There is always the potential for them to win, but they require some luck and great skill.

cyborg is so downplayed lol hes arguably 10-15

No way lol. 10!?

I do honestly think Cyborg could be the worst in the game, but the thing is 'being the worst' doesn't mean much in a balanced game. That is why it could seem like he is around the 15th spot with a bunch of other characters.

His design is just blah. Really the only way he wins is by chip damage and throws. It is rough in a game dominated by 50-50 resets into 40-50% damage and where everyone seemingly has good counter-zoning or a teleport, or a parry/evade.

Cyborg has no mix-up and no way to open up his opponent (not that his damage is great w/o meter or B3). Thus the best thing to do with his + frames is to run away (unless you are near the corner). Did you know that almost all his strings are full combo interruptible? J2,1,(here)2, b2 ; 11(here)2; d1(here)SD ; f22 and b1 are not true mids with poor range and 90% of his string can be avoided or made to wiff by walking back since the range is so poor.

Also his groundfireball is -20ish, but people get confused since his iafb is +2 and it can be hard to differentiate them at first. Missiles are a gimmick since they have slow startup and literally point to where they will go. Their splash hitbox is also surprisingly small if more people would lab it and find that they can easily avoid them. All his zoning can be avoided on reaction with practice thus effectively taking 0% damage and very minimal chip. It is just patience and experience people lack.

He is fun as hell, but only in certain MUs (Batman, Superman, NW, Grundy, GL, Lex, Black Adam) others are not too bad, he has a lot of 4-6s. But is his amount of potential 3-7s that really make him a true in the blue fish.

IMO Zod, MMH, WW, BG are some of the uncontested best in the game. They are amazing lol

Shazam just won a huge tournament. Catwoman placed 2nd in another. A while ago a hawkgirl/lex/zat combo brought it to the top.

This game is no where near ready for a tier list IMO

I think there are way more in A. I would probably have like only an SABC and put most of your B in A and some of the C in B...I just think there are so many good characters in this game.
