    Believe it or not, these tier lists have made me want to play SC2 again, and it's been a nostalgia trip, man. Thank you. I'd love to see more for SC2 or other games. Is there any chance for a tier list on joke weapons or a video about the non legendary weapons?

    5:11 Looking at the "Soulcalibur II The Complete Official Guide" by Piggyback Interactive, it states on page 131 that attacking with Han Guang will cause Yun to lose 3 HP, but it doesn't state that it will cause chip damage, however Brady Games' "Soulcalibur II Official Fighter's Guide" does state that it will cause 10% of chip damage but doesn't make mention of losing HP. After checking the US, EU and JP versions of SCII, turns out that the "lose 3HP per attack" trait was only in the Japanese version of the game, which was replaced with "deal 10% of chip damage per attack" in later versions.
    Similarly, the Brady Games guide states that Nightmare's Soul Calibur has a 25% defence increase, but the Piggyback Interactive guide doesn't. Once again, doing in-game testing for all three regions of the game shows that the JP version of the game doesn't have a defence increase or decrease but the US and EU versions of the game show a 25% increase.

      It's crazy how much the game just does not tell you about the ultimate weapons... I always disliked that. Like, yeah, it's cool at first to give these weapons this air of ooga booga mystery, but eventually it just gets really annoying.

    Cool video! Interesting to see tier lists that are non meta or jokes.
    This might change the tiers a bit. Soul charge has multiple levels of charge (i believe 3) depending on how long animation is played. It can be canceled by pressing G. Meaning soul charge is pretty safe at anytime. You can only see the level of charge on the character itself. The weapon will glow or something like that.

  • @DMSwordsmaster
    @DMSwordsmaster 4 місяці тому

    I kind of like the dichotomy between Nightmare's second best and ultimate weapons considering they both have a healing upside, but different alternate upsides and downsides.
    SE Growth is more about power, with slightly worse healing and modest chip from block, while Soul Calibur is more defensive with better healing but you have the horizontal break thing and the AI is made stronger (citation needed). Honestly either one is good for certain situations.
    Also my _god_ is the SCII version the best design for the Zweihander Soul Calibur in the entire series. I always adored how it looked.
    Also initially I was very confused why the Zweihander SC was at the top considering the host of conflicting information thanks to the US/EU changes. "What, just health regen alone is enough for the very top??" Silly conflicting sources...
    I imagine if it was like the Japanese version (no defense buff) it would probably be in A or B, and probably considered worse than SE Growth.

  • @Ryan-tc2el
    @Ryan-tc2el 4 місяці тому

    Entertaining video though the tier ordering is all over the place.
    The no-guard weapons are trash, you won't be able to take advantage of step-guard, the strongest technique in SCII. GI is no substitute, it has the usual risk but its less rewarding if the opponent knows the g2 glitch.
    The long range ones are potentially game breaking if you know how to play keepaway.
    Healing is completely broken though if you're still able to guard. With a good defense and safe retaliation its near impossible to kill you.
    Basically this game is more defense oriented at any decent level of play than you think.

    • @lordflashheart3741
      @lordflashheart3741 2 місяці тому

      I disagree. Well, not about healing being good or the "no blocking" weapons being terrible, but about the defensive nature of the game.
      Stepguarding and 2g are the best things in the game, but they don't necessarily lend themselves to defensive play. They also enable a very high level of aggression. Couple this with the fact that throws are true 50/50's, jumping is generally low risk with potentially great reward and damage generally being high, I'd say SC2 strikes a great balance in the viability between offensive and defensive play.
      So while passive healing is amazing, doing loads of damage or chipping through opponents guard are also incredible assets. Ivy's Kaleidoscope is a good example of a weapon OP greatly underestimates.
      Anyway, I assume his opinion is primarily based on playing against the AI rather than people.

    Kilik's legendary is dull until you play sudden death mode where everyone dies in one hit - then it becomes S-tier because of its range.

      The initial comment was about the information in the video. Some of the weapons actually don’t have reduced defenses. Specifically Orichalcum, Kris Naga, and Hihiirokane. When a character soul charges, they take an extra 20% due to the counterhit modifier. Statistically there’s nothing wrong with any of these weapons. They all have defense stats of 100%.

      @@HyperChasred That’s why I cross reference Porcupine’s guide and the wiki when I do labbing for the weapons. I do a lot of weapon matchup theory for SC2. The wiki tends to have a lot of inaccuracies. Porcupine’s guide is usually more accurate, but sometimes it does miss the mark, or lacks some crucial info on how a weapon’s gimmicks work. I’m currently working on a guide that updates all the information.
