I am loving this alternate universe where these three are best buds who hang out and rip on each other all day.
It's a nice change of pace from real life, ain't it?
Takes the sting off reality for sure
I love it 😂 it's a dream
They’re all more lovable this way.
Too bad this isn't our universe
Trump simping for EDI just out of mic was fucking hilarious.
Nice
i actually spit my tea at the build up, You think i will change my views? immediate hyper simping. Great comedy
Literally couldn't stop laughing!
To paraphrase Javik: This Teir list deserves to be thrown out an airlock.
"In my cycle, I would have been S-tier."
This tier list is obviously made by primitives.
To me, Javik is at the very least lower A or highest B
EDI and Legion in the same tier! XD Maybe if 3 never happened...
In defense of Samara and her “romance”: It’s never outright said but to some degree she blames herself for all three of her daughters’ condition and she blames herself for every person Morinth kills. Her mate/wife is also either dead or left her. All she really has left is the justicar code. Morinth chose to leave the monastery and in doing so forced Samara to become a justicar and right the wrong she brought into the world, she spent the entire time knowing she’d have to kill one of her own daughters while also knowing the other two could just as easily be on the same path as Morinth. She’s a heartbroken mother who gave up everything to hunt the monster she made, similar to doctor Victor Frankenstein.
During the romance scene in ME2 she takes Shepard’s hand and leans into the kiss, but before it goes any further she stops it and says “in another time… in another life…” before leaving the room, in an out of character emotional outburst. She wants that relationship with Shepard but she’s also suffered too much emotional trauma and decided long ago that all she could ever be is a justicar. In the citadel dlc she opens herself up a little more but no matter how much she wants it she’s pushed herself too far down the justicar path to ever have it. “In another time… in another life…” was very literal.
S tier character and I’ll die on this hill.
Big agree. Very well said. Everything makes sense for her.
You should read Frankenstein. He was the real monster, not his creation.
Otherwise i completely agree.
@@definitelynotthequestion5359
You should reread Frankenstein, his creation is absolutely a monster too. He kills an innocent women because the doctor refuses to build him a wife.
"Skill issue, Thane is going in A-tier."
"Goddamn it"
I friggin' died
So did Thane.
@@wrayday7149 now you listen here u little shit
Garrus is one of the greatest squadmates in the history of gaming. A tier is beneath him. I would send a strongly worded email, but Hilary Clinton would delete it.
Garrus and Tali in anything less than S is a CRIME
They are the absolute ride or dies
The first video justifies Garrus’ placement rather well to be honest.
Tali is just a whiny quarian constantly blaming the geth for the idiotic choices her own moronic species caused
Tali is S tier yes although I will admit its weird how she goes from little sister then an adult in 2 years, and I agree with garrus being A tier
@@kroegerjames7424 the attitude with Tali is really weird, they tried having her come off as lil sister but gave u the option to romance said sister. Guess someone from Alabama started working there.
And Legion below A tier as a minimum. I could have accepted A tier but not B tier.
"Donald, youre four years younger than me. Wake up to reality. We're both old."😂😂
Not only do I love Mass Effect, love the genuine gamer knowledge this entire video displays, actually agree on almost every single point made about the characters, and think this whole sketch is well-written... I actually love the wholesomeness it brings by having these three presidents being old gamer buddies - roasting each other and indulging in a fun convo about some of the best games ever made.
Keep doing what you're doing! Cheers :)
I agree with your agreement and agree with his points, we are in agreement
Bruh the miranda simp part had me crying 😂 tbf she do develop pretty well, with the arc of her sister an her turning on the illusive man at the end
her face is kiinda effed
@@realtalunkarku You're kinda effed
Javik has some of the best interactions and banter. Putting him in D tier is frankly criminal; he should be B tier as he's a solid pick but not developed enough to match the A tier competitors.
Honestly the only characters who I would put below B are Jacob and James, and I don't think any characters are D tier
D for paid DLC
You apologize for putting Zaeed so low. At least he deserves C tier for being able to immediately replace Jacob
And being extremely useful in the reaper iff mission with his fire grenades. Can't imagine the mission without him.
i usally use jack because shock wave@@thesamejackalsniperthatkil117
That roast Joe said to Trump for dissing Jack was brutal😂
"Oh shit he doesn't know" that was great 😂
Also "Shut the fuck up Obama"
Dollar Store Nightwing was fighting Thane in a weakened state. Thane in perfect health would have ended Kai
Why can't this be the reality? This is so freaking wholesome. Subscribed.
Edi is straight S tier. You technically meet her in the first game.
Thank you so much for this series. It's been an absolute pleasure. Maybe do villains or another topic next? The banter is really on point!
I've gotten requests to do side characters like Joker and such, so I'll see what I can cook up.
i can imagine Trump as a lover o Ilusive man
@@primeradiancy Yes to side characters and villains and have you played the Dragon age series? If so would do a Dragon Age party member list?
Thane lost to a $ store nightwing 🤣 So damn true.
Honestly, that's more a reflection of how trash Kai Leng is, since he just barely beat the guy with one foot already in the grave.
grunt is our son
Miranda is a great character, but her being sidelined in ME3 really kills her character.
It makes me roll my eyes at how they basically rehash her loyalty quest again with her dad. ‘Fuck you for doing my mission, sis is in trouble from dad again’.
@@soulstealer5625 if mass effect 2 and 3 weren't rushed, what would the stories look like now?
I think it's because Miranda realises she has more growing up to do without Shepard. I like that most of her human side developed off camera where she realised that she was more than what Henry Lawson made her and Cerberus used her for. Miranda is easily one of the standout character of this Trilogy.
the love interest from 2 should be recruitable
If we're going with Miranda and this line of thinking, S-tier all the way:
1. Brings Shepard back from the dead in ME2. Solved death via "resources." Imagine what other minor problems she can solve in minutes.
2. Cares about her family/tragic backstory about wanting one, but can't get pregnant. Just wants to be happy and loved for who she is.
3. Is the main Cerberus-loyal character that realizes they aren't good for the galaxy through Shepard's involvement.
4. Is plot centric to ME3, with multiple solutions for her ending. Provides tracking data on Kai Leng -- exactly what the team needs at that point in the story.
5. Will always kill her father even if Shepard strikes a deal with him.
6. Is near indestructible in the Suicide Mission in ME2.
7. Has one of the only 2 P/R conflicts in ME2 with Jack.
8. Outside of Samara, the most attractive female of the bunch.
9. Game play options are fantastic, basically a suped-up Sentinel version of Garrus (team leader in Suicide Misssion) with biotics, an aura increasing squad health and weapon damage, and Overload.
10. Biotics, tech skills, leadership skills, stronger, smarter, faster, and can heal faster than average humans.
11. Huge chip on her shoulder about her genetic origins and talents, compared to Shepard's skills and experience.
12. Can infiltrate the Citadel and get away with it.
Cons would be:
1. Not a squadmate in ME3.
2. Doesn't wear a helmet, and uses the ME2 breather masks.
Hey, didn't think I'd be running into smudboy on a random AI generated meme about mass effect!
She's also a really great friend to femshep, I love their relationship especially their scenes together in the Citadel dlc
Id add cons such as: 1. Her me3 presence is just repeating her loyalty quest arc all over again, disappointing. 2. Due to how me2 is structured, she simps hard for cerberus ideology and has to have a hastily written scene about using the base being a betrayal to indicate her progress. Cerberus dickrider when jacks trauma js unveiled but the collector base is the last straw?
But she played with my Little Shepard while I was asleep w/o my consent and is a Tinder ho lol
I laughed for a good ten minutes at, “You’re built like a pumpkin.”
“Don’t tell Michelle I said this but Miranda is my Mass Effect waifu.” -Barrack Obama.
Them all agreeing instantly on Jacob
Ever since Terminator 1 I was afraid it would be AI that wipes out our species, but lately it's been the best thing to happen to the internet.
I remember playing ME2 for the first time. Was a child and had no idea what I was doing half the time. I was more concerned trying to get the Assault Rifle while using a Sentinel... But I remember just skipping through dialogue and ended up getting romance with Jacob. I didn't realize at first. But I remember finding out, and I remember in ME3 being pissed off.
I'll bet most people's experience romancing Jacob was also by accident, nothing to be ashamed of. :)
Incredible video. I laughed so hard😂
Tali is mid. Her space gypsy conversations got boring quick.
I would've put grunt in S , especially after his loyalty mission and his mission in 3 when i thought he died... i cried manly tears
Tali is so much more than just being a space gypsy lol
I miss how in ME1 every squad mate wore actual armor and had access to all types of weapons.
I understand why Legion gets the spot as he does, but I actually liked this character as much as I do because we don't get enough time with him. He embodies so much more but we only get a glimpse of it and that makes it more interesting, I feel. Personally, Legion is an A-tier character.
Javik is one note but I love it anyway! He exists to destroy everyone's preconceptions of his race and mocks, derides, and condescends everyone. He's from a time and a place that extends past the current galactic society's mores and is unapologetic about eating, enslaving, and experimenting on primitive races. He'd be considered a racist, bigot, fascist, and bastard by today's standards and he'd agree with all of those things. I love it. More than that, he says when his mission is done, he will go to the grave site of his people and kill himself there. When his mission of vengeance is finished, so is he. For unapologetically being completely who he is, sticking to his own code of honor even if he is in turn mocked and derided for it, that deserves some mad respect.
The Protheans were basically Nazis with a heavier leaning towards science and knowledge, which is why they're the second best race in the franchise. And I think it's hilarious that the progenitors responsible for Bioware's xenophile galaxy were literal space Nazis
Javik only says he'll go and kill himself at the grave site of his people if you have him look at the memory shard. If you don't, he says he'll just write a book with Liara.
Mass Effect and Ai presidents, my 2 favorite things! 🎉
If only they were as sharp, respectful and intelligent in real life...
Listening to this at the gym. I almost dropped the weights at
"even Jacob"
"Gross"
"the creator is a miranda simp. oh he doesn't know." perfect that the old man doesn't know.
The dialogue in this video is peak comedy. Laughed out loud at Obama telling Trump that him getting jabbered by Melania for not having a body like Thane is a skill issue.
I would argue B tier for Jack 'cause those of us who don't romance her see significantly less of her character development. Although this is mentioned in the video, I still feel that it's understated.
James above Kasumi and Javik is crazy.
As much as I enjoy the arguing that happens in these videos, there's something so cathartic about when they're all in total agreement on something.
James and EDI are awesome . They and Ashley pretty much made up the squad I used for the entirety of 3.
I think you should've added more to miranda than just a person who goes from being an ice queen to being nicer the shepard.
Miranda is basically a human version of grunt, being someone who was genetically designed to be perfect like grunt, and her loyalty mission gets to show her more human softer side, showing that even a cold soldier like miranda can be a good person with their own personal lives.
Donnie bot needs to remember that what happened to Quarians was their own fault
Javik is almost as old as Biden
Also you nail the presidents in the most fun way possible. I'd encourage more tier lists.
You're pretty good at writing 3 characters having a naturally funny conversation!
Hope you keep it up!
I have another in the works, also I think I developed split personality syndrome from doing this.
@@primeradiancy When you get invested in writing characters, they start to live pseudo-separate lives in your head. Deal with it lol, it's a sacrifice writers gotta make, and a sign that you actually have good characterization.
Love the dialogue I'm subbing, this was crackin me up
These videos are frigging hilarious.😂I literally started tearing up from laughing so hard, thx man.
9:40 horseshoe theory is real
Once again the presidents have some good points.
I'm surprised they didn't mention the biggest reason why Kasumi can't go higher than C tier.
Kasumi's ranking will always be hampered by the fact that she's legitimately got the hots for Jacob.
"Thane is unnecessary"
Mans literally saved the salarian councilor while terminally ill foh
Great vid tho
Technically Kirrahe can also save the Councilor. But this comes at the cost of his life, and in no way shape or form am I letting him die. So Thane is necessary.
Wouldn't have been necessary if some dumbass writer at Bioware didn't put his fucking OC into the game.
Krogan:
Top approach, double-strike to eye ridge, slide down between blinded target's rising arms, precision nerve strike to throat, secondary nerve strike to counter blood rage, quad-kick to bend target, grip each side of skull, running leaping spinning neck-snap.
Alternate: Bomb.
and if the delatrass died who cares? salarians and asari barely help in the war
Hahah, as a fellow Miranda simp, I loved the 4th wall break.
Still no Jenkins? damn
Don't worry, i'm a massive Miranda simp aswell.
7:00 PIECE OF SCRAP Metal LMAO 😭😭🤣🤣🤣
These videos are a window into a better alternative reality
The Don’s comments have me in hysterics! 😂
Mortin is the greatest story for me. I started out hating him. Then he became one of my all time favorites. Normally I either like or dislike them right off the back and don't really change. Wasnt the case here.
Biden is right, Kasumi not being romanceable was a fucking sin.
but her entire arc is about grieving her dead lover?
Shepard and Kasumi together committing crimes would be a perfect sitcom
How about a dragon age tier list? I can totally see Trump being on Loghain’s side and hating on the elven race.
I liked Jacob, he just needs more action. Solus stole the show in ME2. And if Jacob had a story like that he would be liked.
combat would have put zaeed in s. inferno grenade wrecks even in insanity.
Grunt is S-tier in the Citadel DLC because when he gets drunk, he's funny as absolute fuck.
Gonna have to interject on Biden saying that Morinth has "zero redeeming qualities". If you play a certain way, picking Morinth over Samara, then during Suicide Mission have her lead the second team, she will get mortally wounded by the Collectors and die, but her dying words will be "at least I got everyone through", as she led the second team through without other casualties. This scene is short, but to me was very emotional, as I saw Morinth, who you would assume is a ruthless murderer and cold-blooded killer, essentially give her life when it counted, putting others before herself at the cost of her own life. That for me is her one redeeming quality, a noble final act.
I would still put her in F tier though, understanding that barely anyone gets her as a squadmate, and they kinda do her a squadmate in a cheap way by having her mimick Samara. But I still pick her every time I do my personal canonical playthrough.
But what made her to act like that though? Without good precedent those words sounds empty.
It only took dying for her to actually care about other people.
Closing moment was heart-warming! :)
Trumps defeated "god damnit" after obama says skill issue made me laugh so hard I was crying lmao. keep making these dude they are sooo good
I wish the real ones were as lovable as these guys.
I may not agree fully with the list but I have to respect how based it is.
Putting Tali and Garrus in A tier may not have been my choice, but they gave actual good points.
Garrus is the best, but more tension with him would have made him even cooler, and Tali really doesn't stand out until ME2 despite how great she is for the rest of the series.
And finally someone who doesn't completely discredit James, Ashley and Miranda by only judging they're superficial aspects.
James might be basic, but he is at least really fun all the same and I love his relationship with both Shepards.
Ashley might be too confrontational for most of the games, but you can understand her prospective most of the times and she ends up developing into a loyal squadmate,also her being a bit racist is only a thing in the beginning, she grows out of it.
Miranda isn't just a nice ass (although her assets are admirable for sure), she has a really nice plot with her family and grows to become a more caring and less rigid person.
Legion and Tali are my favorites.
But im not a Simp and the Quarians Cry Out as they Strike You. So i literally Romance Tali in all three games and pick Legion on my first playthrough.
Now i pick Miranda or Jack.
I disagree with the presidents opinions about Morinth and Samara. One thing, Samara is a warrior who did the nasty in the pastey which caused her three deathly daughters. One of which decided to rebel against the harsh but understanding treatment given to Ardat-Yakshis. Samara tries to make it right by hunting down her daughter and Morinth could somehow convince Shepard into melding with her despite the deadly effects. Samara also ties down her story if you don't kill her by saving the monastery at the expense of losing another daughter. How Morinth was written in ME3 was lazy and they missed out on potentially giving her a redemption story by saving her sisters but that's EA for ya.
Javik in D tier is disrespectful regardless of this being a joke video lol
Liara is my milk mother.
I love when Trump defends his son Grunt
Hey where's the Mass Effect: Andromeda crew 😂
You fellas did Miranda dirty. She's clearly S tier. And the reason why is because her character development arc goes from humanity's best as a tool, as a biotic, as a superior human to one that realises she's much more.
In mass effect 2 she's dead set on being humanity's best because that was drilled into her. The reason why she was created and she thought that's all she was ever going to be. In her loyalty mission, we see a more human side in her dedication to orianna. In mass effect 3, that same character is explored further and Miranda realises that the reason she was made is not all she is.
Her character goes deeper than "she wasn't that cold to Shepard in the end". You see Miranda becoming more human than just an object of legacy of whatever the fuck Cerberus was telling her.
Easily an S tier character and squadmate. 🙏
How the f××k Javik ended up in D tier is beyond me.
Dollar store nightwing lmaoo
Aye bro you’re blowing up with these lists! Keep it up! Maybe do one for biotics next.
Legion's sacrifice made the Geth sapient, not sentient. They were already sentient.
First off Miranda is A Tier simp or not. Her role in ME3 is the most fleshed out non squadmate character besides maybe Anderson. She's mid in ME2 but sure bonus points for hot. She's one of the more delightful interactions in the Citadel DLC. Easy A
James is A tier.
Argue that Kasumi deserves F tier strictly on the basis that she's attracted to Jacob.
I love all the squad mates. Yes even the f tier ones. Whenever I replay the trilogy I always make sure to choose all the squadmates and shuffle them around to gain a full experience with them all. I got no favorites. Also when it comes to Romances since I only ever play a male shepaloo in my experience the most rewarding and long-term Romances are Ashley Williams, Liara t soni and Tali Zorah.
Plus I never really got the hate for Jacob Taylor or James vega. There both petty much interesting characters and are much needed additions to counterbalance the huge idealization and hero worship that some of the characters in the series have for Cmdr shepard.
Miranda is one of the best characters in the entire trilogy and I hate BioWare for gutting her arc in Mass effect 3. Miranda's whole arc in ME3 is so contrived and bullshit. The safest place from Cerberus is literally with Shepard. Liara is the Shadow broker and can easily use her contacts to locate Oriana. Shepard ha Spectre status and can literally object to Alliance sayign no to Miranda on the Normandy hell they probably wouldn't care since they trust Shepard anyway. Miranda SHOULD have been a squad mate in the third game.
Grunt is definitely S Tier
Trump’s son
Now do a top 10 loyalty list
If I ever get god like powers. What I'll do is take all three of them, force them to playthrough the Mass Effect series, and actually rate the squad list. Imagining them all sitting in one room trying to place everyone.
Biden going off on Trump about Jack is freaking hilarious
Best part abiut zaeed is that we can get him immediately and only have to use Jacob like three times in the game because of him
Kaidan is just bland but Ashley is interesting. She actually isn’t a xenophobe, just some military humor and if anyone paid attention to her family background you’ll find the Alliance made it hard for her to trust others. However she always had her team’s back no matter what and treated everyone with respect.
No, she did not treat "everyone" with respect. She's antagonistic and mean to Liara a couple times in ME1 for reasons that seemed based entirely on her dislike of aliens. In one of the crew meetings in the first game, Liara tells Shepard and co. that they need to hurry to Saren's next destination, which was accurate, and Ashley immediately goes "Who put *you* in charge? Did Shepard resign when I wasn't looking?" while smugly crossing her legs. It was entirely uncalled for, and I don't believe for a second that it had nothing to do with Ashley's racism. I don't even like Liara that much because she's a boring character to me, but treating someone poorly for being a different race from you is a mark of a shitty person, and like it was said in this video, her racism seems to be one of her key personality traits for her character.
@@Choshako believe it or not Ashley was right to call Liara out. Liara overstepped and Ashley had every right to make the demand that Liara respect the chain of command. Not everything is black and white and Liara overstepped. There was no xenophobia involved PERIOD. If I were civilian military (which Liara is) and I tried to pull something like that, I would be on the receiving end of the exact same treatment as Liara had received because I failed to respect the chain of command. That’s how it works. No one within the military wants or needs a civilian to determine what course of action to take unless they were given authority to make the decisions or even insist on a decision. Civilians typically are not allowed to insist or give orders, only to advise and suggest, and Liara was insisting on an action. Granted Ash should’ve let Shepherd address it but she had every right to set Liara straight.
That “I’m a seasoned player” Obama defense could’ve come straight out one of his debates lol.
The James love from Obama is much appreciated
when i heard the thane slander, I almost put my fist through my laptop
Javik was a pre-order bonus that got made available as a dlc. Still, shitty pratice for someone who has lines for just every important mission and species, adding so much to just everything. he deserved c-tier IMO.
The funny thing about Jacob hate is that it usually centers around him being boring, but don't lie, the majority of people irl are pretty boring too
Same thing for Kaiden, kaiden doesnt wine and complain about his problems unlike shepherds other companions. He keeps his problems to himself and you need to pry the info from him because its personal and normal people dont talk about their childhood problems to anybody.
That's why I am not firends with majority of people irl, duh.
Zaeed being D tier is a travesty. It's truly joever.
Wait Jacob cheats on you if you romance him? Along with his backstory literally being about a missing father, is there anything not borderline offensive about how stereotypical and dull he is?
Yeah and the Doctor he does it with is normally really nice but if it's a Jacob cheated on you playthrough she's a real bitch. Just another reason why he has the worst romance.
i mean they didnt make him a singer lel
yeah that's some mad offensive shit. and for you edgy gamer wasp bois who have difficulties understanding racism even exist, it would be the same if the only white character in the game is: trailerpark trash who has a thing for his sister, does meth, plays the banjo, and likes mayonnaise, and those are his only characteristics, nothing else.
I never thought about that, why do people always have to link everything with skin colour?
@@warcrimeconnoisseur5238 You didn't think about that because you're a white suburban edgelord who has never been discriminated against. Black people hear these 'jokes' and stereotypes every day. You can afford to not think about it. They can't.
Presidents ranking mass effect classes could be a good video
Tbh mass effect is one of the rare games where the majority of characters are in S tier
That's a nice twist. Normally Joe is the one who has seen beyond the veil and gazed upon the reality that is.
The only change I would make is to put Vega in D-tier. Like they said, his sense of humor wears out fast but his only purpose is to be the exposition character for the fools who played ME3 without playing the previous games.
