Discussion My Tier List (Blow Up Preparedness Training)

I honestly feel each tier of BRC should be a tier lower. I feel this list could have benefited from a B- tier.

nice tier list

i would put kenshi in A tier
Goro DF also A.
relentless replaced with both unstoppable and slasher.
Liu kang DF is between A+ and S.
Curious, why do you say Relentless is better than unstoppable and slasher?
 

Youphemism

Gunslinger since pre patch (sh/out to The Farmer)
I guess he was trolling abut the PC news when he teased that as well. Even if the patch came tomorrow, you'll probably fall back on, "well there wasn't an official announcement so technically i wasn't wrong" Lol sad
He was also trolling about KP3 and yet we don't have it :p Now this is getting off-topic, back to the tier list.
 

M.D.

Spammer. Crouch walk hater.
Alist gets mopped by everyone in your S tier, and by GM, that definitively does NOT make him S tier. Down to A mostly.
 

omooba

actually if a patched dropped tomorrow i would be spamming "all hail lord boon" on twitter and labbing the game. everyone wants a patch. pointing out that he could be messing with us doesn't mean i want to be right about it but it's very possible.

im glad u want the game to succeed. i thought you were just saying it cus u don't want a patch deep down because u want the game to die like other people. lol i don't think it's a troll this time around and you shouldn't either but i understand why you do. all good lets pray for CZS though!

Pumped up Jax is too low, especially since he's arguably the best variation versus Demo and Alien. Well not arguably versus Demo, it definitely is.

I'd probably put all 3 variations of Jax in A+ tier tbh.

I'd move Tanya to A, maybe Dragon Naginata to A+.

A tier is kind of messy. That's why you need some - tiers imo. Buzzsaw Kung Lao in the same tier as Dragon's Fire Liu? idk

Keep in mind if/when a new patch comes I will make a second list but not till we're decently into the life span of the patch and all the new dirt has been found

Yea I can see where you're coming from there. Tho imagine we lived in a world where buzzsaw was as good as dragon's fire? I'd be down

I applaud you for putting yourself out there with this teir list lol
There is no way Necromancer is c tier. Hellsparks alone moves him out of that teir. One of the best moves in the game. Add the fact that Shinnok alone has an amazing run, backdash, 50/50, 7 frame low starter and great pokes. Necromancer's projectiles knock down the opponent making it hard to trade projectiles with him. Flick is -7. You can combo off of ex shoulder (which you can't do in the other variations).

Shinnok is best friend. I had to stand up for him

Also to be fair B tier is supposed to be niche counter pick characters or characters that loyalists make good

Very nice list!

In total agreement, except for a few minor things.

I feel
-Cyber SZ fits into B.
-Kuatan Warrior fits into A.
-Necromancer into B.
-I'm not quite sure Bojutsu is B (I'd have said A).
-Inferno moved to B. It's gimmick-ish, but still decently effective.

Just my opinion though. Again, very nice list!

I can get on board with this. I think Pumped Up might be a little low (very safe, 50/50s into +-40%, frame traps, safe advancing high-priority mid, solid anti-airs, amazing wakeups, versatile as a zoner who can rush down, etc). I feel he only really struggles against heavy zoning (HQT, etc), which affects all Jax variations, and characters who can punish his blocked Gotcha and b2. That IA GP makes up for tick throws, in my opinion. Very hard to read. Just sucks they nerfed his OtG damage.

Honestly, the otg change is one of the reasons i put him so low because that otg nerf sent a ripple through the whole cast. People with otgs that were basically "make your huge damage meterless combos 14% higher with one bar" had that to look forward to. Kuatan Warrior had disgusting damage before the otg nerf, it was really quite something. And as you may know, the same applies to Pumped Up. Pumped Up out of ALL the characters should get reverted back to normal otgs because the scare of eating 50% for on bar was TERRIFYING and added to his gameplan, both mentally and in game. However, I forgot how good IA GP is...i might reconsider this one.

He can also zone much better than the other variations. And he still gets solid otg damage after an Energy Wave anti-air. Plus meterless armor-breaking corner 50/50s that end with the opponent standing and Jax at +3 with a 6-frame starter back into all of his options, means some characters simply cannot get out of the corner against him, even if he has no meter. And his damage output with his high-damage Gotcha is still very impressive. I think a naked Ex Gotcha does like 22%, making it a scary safe wakeup that's too quick for a lot of conventional armor-breaking tactics.
