  • @matt_mkv
    @matt_mkv Рік тому +152

    I think the biggest issue with tier lists in fairly balanced games is how experience-dependent tier lists are. If you are, say, a Platinum level player, the amount of whiff punishing and hit confirming going on is reduced considerably. Punishes in general are reduced because of limited matchup knowledge. That alone could dramatically change how powerful a character can be at that level of the game. A character like Kage might seem totally oppressive because his problems in neutral aren't properly checked, and it can be tough to recognize your turn due to the strange gaps in his strings. Basically, tiers do not matter at all until you reach a high enough level that the threat of proper punishes forces your opponent to take less risks, or you are good enough to take advantage of a high tier character to the point that they can actually exploit matchups across the board.
    Certainly there are games where a tier list does matter more outside of the tip top levels of competitive play. It would be brutal playing against a Ken or Chun in 3s as an inexperienced player because of just how scary something as simple as low-forward super confirms were. I felt that it was pretty clear in that game that certain characters had tools that would be extremely abusable at mid levels that would be hard for the rest of the cast to deal with. You could learn that confirm in a couple days and any other mid level player without that tool would struggle to counter someone doing nothing but that. Coming back to SFV after not playing since season 1, I've been so surprised with how elegantly most things that seem "cheap" initially are clearly and easily countered after a quick lab session. So many ways to win and cool little effective tools the cast has. A tier list might actually be a detriment to an average or even advanced player who would otherwise mesh with a "low-tier" character's play style or strengths.
    Sorry for the very long-winded version of "I agree with you" lol.

      I disagree. The tier list definitely affects my Zangief. I'm literally stuck at Super Plat on him because anyone with a half brain can invade a lot of his attacks. He's just not scary. You get EX SPD? They V Shift and you're back to square one. Only the best Zangiefs can hang with the big boys. About 95 percent of them are stuck in low ranks.

Blanka is a pretty misunderstood character in the games; he's high-risk/high-reward type of guy, and absolutely test an opponent's ability knowledge on matchup homework. He has gimmicks, yes, but he also has really solid play and answers for things. I would love for you to chat with other high level players that play under-the-radar characters just to provide some insight, as Blanka is often hated on and misunderstood, really.

      I've seen many people make the argument that Marth is better than Fox in Melee. It comes down to Fox having some really strong matchups, but also some poor ones, and Marth has many good matchups (including against Fox) and also literally no losing matchups. To me, Luke is more like Marth, in that he's got the tools to deal with all situations without relying on any one specific thing, and Fox is more like Ed, where he's got one AMAZING move (Shine/Flicker) that is very applicable and can swing things in his favor very easy, but isn't without situations he has a harder time dealing with.

    Removing invincibility from ex spd was so bad I stopped playing sf5. Season 5 was too late to learn a new character if u were a gief specialist. It’s such a hard thing to explain to people who don’t play gief. What made it unfair is that ex spd is not as good as ex dp, but ex dp remained in invincible. Ex dp got buffed with vshift because every character with an ex dp was given another escape option thus making ex dp more unpredictable. U see so many more ex dps now. U cannot be jabbed out of ex dp. Ex dp hits airborne opponents. Some characters can cancel their ex dp with vtrig activations. Ex spd invincibility only beats throw. It’s far less useful and is equally punished vs ex dp. If they had made ex spd crush counterable I would not have been so mad. Removing the throw invincibility was wayyy too far. Removing throw invincible spd killed his defense. Top 5 nerf in sf history.

Once they're in, he is just playing rock paper scissors without the ability to choose scissors.

Kage has a lot of wild stuff he can throw at you (especially in VT) to get him that one big hit into CA that closes the round. I think that's the biggest difference, Kage has good wildcard factor to help him win othersie bad matchups. Ryu has to try to grind every friggen round with fireballs and pokes so your bad matchups are really bad.

    I could work around the VT2 nerf for Kolin, but nerfing her EX parabellum damage and stun was a step too far for me. She hits like a wet noodle now, even if you spend two bars, completely killing the fun factor. And then they nerfed her anti-air in a way that punishes Kolin for using it. It's like they don't want people to play this character.
    I understand fighting her is frustrating, I understand getting blown up by VT2 can feel cheap. What I don't understand is just deleting a major part of the character and not replacing it with anything.
    Now, she's a character that does low damage, struggles against fireball characters (ie half the cast), and has slow walkspeed. Sure she has strengths, but they end up getting cancelled out by these glaring flaws.

      I wouldn't be so annoyed if they just gave her something to make life easier, like a vacuum effect on EX para so the combo doesn't drop, or a corner combo that isn't weaker than her midscreen combos. I swear she's the only character in the game whose combo game gets worse in the corner, instead of better.

    As a current Nash main, and former Alex main, I can guaratee you that alex is not one "step" below nash. Alex has a lot of tools and some decent plus frames pressure and mix ups. Nash has basically no plus frame nor any kind of anti air (he has, but it is not much at all). It's a much tougher character to play with. Still, I insist in playing him bc a think I'm learning more with a tougher character, consistency, execution and reaction wise.
