The great thing about TMB is that it's the only TM game I feel that there's no car I really dread playing. Sure, some are obviously better than others, but they are all fun to play. Every other TM I can think of at least 1 character that is just a slog.
Love the continuation of the TM list content, hope to see more bc opinions are always changing even if just slightly, lol. Following along with your criteria, here are my rankings: Overpowered - 1. Minion Favorite (of the "normal" vehicles) - 2. Mr. Grimm Fun - 3. Roadkill 4. Sweet Tooth 5. Manslaughter 6. Darkside 7. Shadow Mid-ish - 8. Spectre 9. Crazy 8 10. Warthog 11. Outlaw 12. Junkyard Dog 13. Axel Weak - 14. Brimstone 15. Yellow Jacket
Brimstone is the worst and I won't hear anything else Edit: how dare you say Cage can’t cook by putting him so low. Edit: your opinions are forgiven thank you for the shoutout brother. 🔥
Warthog's special is not great, but what makes up for it is that you have the ability to use other weapons (Power, Gas Can, SAT, etc etc.) whilst using the special attack. You can instantly kill someone with the combo. Junkyard Dog... yeah... i don't know what to say about him
I agree with most of the ranking, Roadkill melted Warhawk with his special (I'm playing TMB until I unlock Minion), and Sweet Tooth can make and take so much damage, great video!
I'm surprised you find the design of Roadkill to be the most generic, especially with presence of this Spectre. Junkyard Dog may not be the flashiest vehicle in the pack, but he's here to do one thing. Get the job done. I'd say Junkyard Dog is the best beginner character to play (hence why he's highlighted first on the select screen). And yes, his special is basically a Gas Can, but it's a Gas Can that respawns over time, meaning you always have one on hand. Twisted Metal Black might actually be the most balanced TM in the series. There really isn't a bad choice, it mainly depends on skill and play style.
For roadkill to hodl his special you just have to hold all other trigger buttons. So hold special to charge and when you are ready to hold press the other 3 simultaneously without letting go of special.
#5 Yellowjacket the most above average car in game. No strengths but no real weakness. #4 Outlaw a decent special that tracks all on its own #3 Roadkill another average car but his special puts him above Yellowjacket #2 SweetTooth a slow heavy hitter that plays catchy jingles while fighting #1 Crazy 8 I would never have put him here if I didn't know of the "special input" Minion is easily #1 but is also a boss character. Warthog gets an honorary place at #17
Crazy 8 should be higher than Roadkill. Seriously Crazy 8 can make short work on Warhawk with his special through a wall. And many other cars. Roadkill is good but it's special is not going to one hit kill anything.
@@VicariousNickk I know the tier list doesn't take into consideration of skilled players using the cars. Crazy 8's special is not difficult for someone that knows what their doing. Damn my mouse auto clicked the reply button.
I personally think you were a bit too harsh with junkyard dog, not liking how the car handles is fair but I think his special is better than you let on and less difficult to use and slightly easier to get full potential damage than others on the bottom half but it is incredibly boring.
Your last comment is exactly why he's last on the list. I don't really believe TM Black as any true "bad" characters in the game. But I do feel some are boring or just not fun to play as and he's on the very bottom of that list for me
This has nothing to do with Twisted Metal, but if your doing retro games, Parasite Eve is a game very advamced for its time Now for the Twisted comment, this list is honestly pretty accurate. Still love the piercing ability of Brimstones special. Catches people off guard online and is a real asset in offline. Along with his OP machinegun placement. Roadkill was made too OP in this game. Boring but OP
*Deletes angry hateful comment about Darkside Slander after getting a small shoutout.*
Good video man!
Thank you for checking it out!!
That T-slide works wonders! I learned it from watching your video dollmask. I would often hit the T-slide by accident at first.
@@dstriker7333 Glad to hear! That's what I love to do, improve the game knowledge when playing TM:Black one mechanic at a time!
@dollmask2390 im on doll's side! I hate nick! Screw you nick!

@@kehobrien999 what about brimstone
Oh I hope AUGER is number 1!
Some wild takes here, I'm fascinated how different playstyles can result in completely different opinions. Right up until roadkill. Roadkill is King.
BASED and ROADPILLED
Agree with just about everything in this list except Junkyard dog. He’s my old reliable. I’d put him just below shadow. Great vid Nick!
Minion black sucks
Should made sweetooth number 1
@@Aaron17988 I remember my first beer
As a funky junky hater, this list is incredibly based.
Nvm Warty is next. This is pure slander.
@@lordraiden1038 LOL
lmao holy fuck
I’m loving these videos that I’ve been searching for
When I replay this game again, I'll do it in this order. Thanks man, awesome video!
I was so giddy when i first saw Minion in TMB back when the game came out. I love his design and intimidation factor
I never had any idea about crazy 8… that is so freakin cool dude!

this comment is algorithm food

Skill Issue really
@@VicariousNickknah you’re winner in my book. Great video! Thanks for keeping the TMB conversation thriving.
Darkside is the worst. Brimstone might be second worst.
Warthog's special is not great, but what makes up for it is that you have the ability to use other weapons (Power, Gas Can, SAT, etc etc.) whilst using the special attack.
You can instantly kill someone with the combo.
Junkyard Dog... yeah... i don't know what to say about him

Crazy 8 can do that??? After all this year i never know that crazy 8 have unique alternative special
How to fix Junkyard Dog: if you get a direct hit, the fire doesn’t go out until the vehicle dies.
Damn I’m trying Crazy 8 now for sure
Hope ya make a tm 1/2 list video and a tm 3/4 one
Roadkill is easily my favorite character/vehicle in this game. Minion is too OP for me.
Great list, and good video man.
*Cries in Warthog Placement*
#5 Yellowjacket the most above average car in game. No strengths but no real weakness.
#4 Outlaw a decent special that tracks all on its own
#3 Roadkill another average car but his special puts him above Yellowjacket
#2 SweetTooth a slow heavy hitter that plays catchy jingles while fighting
#1 Crazy 8 I would never have put him here if I didn't know of the "special input"
Minion is easily #1 but is also a boss character.
Warthog gets an honorary place at #17
Catchy jingles lol
Great video!
Roadkill FTW. favorite car from the first game to black.
TMB still thriving.
I wish when you used a shield playing as minion it was the shield from his boss battle.
did you make a list for tw4?
Yellow jacket and agent Stone are my mains
I'm supposed to be working, then I saw a new Nick TM vid...I can take a little break 😅
Man....makes me want to play again.
I see twisted metal content from you i click it. Simple as.
Crazy 8 should be higher than Roadkill. Seriously Crazy 8 can make short work on Warhawk with his special through a wall. And many other cars. Roadkill is good but it's special is not going to one hit kill anything.
The legend himself! I agree, but because of the skill gap I gotta give the edge to roadkill!
@@VicariousNickk I know the tier list doesn't take into consideration of skilled players using the cars. Crazy 8's special is not difficult for someone that knows what their doing.

Shadow is a baddie fr
It'll suck like crazy huh. How very scandalous
+1 algorithm comment
Decent list but I would put Darkside at the bottom since it’s almost impossible for me to get her special to do damage. Plus she is a weapon magnet.
Sure Yellowjacket is hella mid, but I just like the fact that it's a supercharged cab
Outlaw is the best especially playing one player.....you dont even have to aim the special just focus on Defense.
I personally think you were a bit too harsh with junkyard dog, not liking how the car handles is fair but I think his special is better than you let on and less difficult to use and slightly easier to get full potential damage than others on the bottom half but it is incredibly boring.

How about "Black"...."jaffe"??
"Kinda racist"
My least favorite is definitely darkside super sluggish and i absolutely hate the ramming special

Eh, Crazy 8 is too much work.
