It's insane, that they really managed to grasp the characters with their individual play. I truly feel like Robinhood or Invisible man when I play them in unmatched.
Fascinating to hear someone else’s favourites especially as mine are fairly different. It might be because she is newest but I love little red (that artwork is fierce). They are awesome but I’m a little bored playing Medusa and Bigfoot these days. I also have a soft spot for Invisible man and Alice.
Great thing about this game is how different all characters are. It's funny cuz my game group every single person has vastly different favorite characters.
It's been my experience that Bruce Lee has a really tough time with Sherlock Holmes, since Holmes can force him to discard. Bruce needs to gather groups of cards to pull off his multiple attacks, which is difficult to do without cards.
I'm excited to play this for the first time this weekend. I am a big fan of Disney's Villainous series & though they are different, I love the growing character expansions. Thanks for your list here, it was insightful!
After playing this game the other day I really want to give it props. It's an incredibly easy game to learn, lime you can explain how to play it in under 5 minutes easy. However the designers did a very good job making the characters feel distinctive from one another. For example playing Dracula vs Invisible Man the other day they felt like completely different characters.
Nice list. Personally Spike is my fave, which may be controversial, but so far I have won every match with him. I have to say that Bruce Lee however is exceedingly dangerous against Spike, since at the end of Bruce Lee's turn his special allows him to run away from my tokens. It's great to see how everyone has different play style preferences and I think the designers have done a great job making things balanced for the most part.
Interesting seeing everyone ranking the characters so differently. I've watched two other ranking videos and they're almost totally different to each other and to this haha.
Thanks for sharing. I played my first game today: Sherlock vs Dracula. Sherlock won with 4 health points to go, after Dracula died from exhaustion. Each character has a different way they might ideally move around the board, and so I'm excited to learn more about that aspect of the game.
My 11-year-old loves Bruce Lee and what we have found is that he’s a fairly well-balanced glass cannon. If he has a good hand for a combo, and the opponent doesn’t have Feints to stop his roll, he can steamroll over you in a single turn. But, if his card draw isn’t great OR the opponent stops his +1 action string with a Feint or two, he can get steamrolled just as hard. However, the balance still feels a little bit tipped in his favor because unlike a true glass cannon, Bruce Lee has several really solid defense cards plus his special ability means that he will rarely take more than 1 attack from his opponent per turn. He gets a natural advantage against opponents who can’t easily move away from him after attacking, which let’s Bruce get two (or more) attacks against them, and then he can always step away afterwards (unless he gets trapped, which is basically what you always need to be trying to do when facing off against Bruce Lee).
Always fun to hear peoples favourites. I think I have a bit more love for Jekyll and Hyde and little red than you. Also slightly hate medusa for being too good. Reminds me that there is something for everyone in this game!
Just played as Beowolf for the first time last night. Wow, that was so fun! I would rank Bigfoot higher for first time players since his cards and effects are very easy to understand. Watching my friend play King Arthur for his first time to play was frustrating for everyone... Good list, I would put Dracula a little higher though.
On one part, I wanna buy all the expansions-on the other hand, *Cobble and Fogg* is such a perfect game with it's all Victorian atmosphere that I just never would want to ruin it, with all the irrelevant characters :D
I understand that sentiment for sure but I think Unmatched is one of the few expandable games like this that is yet to deeply disappoint with any of the releases.
Since you talk about this game quite a bit, I thought I would give it a try. I got Cobble and Fog and played on Halloween. I wasn’t bad, but I got destroyed by Jekyll and Hyde as Invisible Man
Great list. I personally really like playing with Bruce Lee but I seem to lose with him as much as I win. Haven't got the Buffy set or the Red Riding Hood set. Will probably get the later when it comes out in NZ.
Idk why but I felt like Little Red should of been higher she has a lot of potential to deal damage on defense (against ranged this is useful) and has some cool cards. Also I like Spike more than where placed but with him I understand more why he falls where he does. He has so many “Any” cards defending usually isn’t a problem with him. But it’s easy to avoid shadow tokens sometimes.
She does do quite a bit of damage, whenever I play her I always just feel forced to play cards in a different order than I want to. I think she can be very powerful tho.
I was just wondering because you did mention Bruce Lee possibly being a little overpowering but I played against him with Sherlock and the match was quite lopsided in Sherlock's favor. I've with all the characters at least once and I've played my favorites at least five times each. At my table everyone has had at least two matches playing as Sherlock and Sherlock has never lost. Have you had a similar experience.
Sherlock is definitely pretty powerful. Everyone keeps telling me Bruce Lee isn't too powerful so I think my group is either just really good with him or really bad playing against him 😄 🤣. That could all just be luck of the draw as well as there is a luck factor in this game.
I can hardly wait for the new sets to come out! Battle of Legends Vol. 2 is going to be fun, but I'm mostly just looking forward to playing as Sun. The Marvel playsets will be fun too, because of 3 player boards. But the T-Rex vs. Dr. Sattler set is probably what I'm looking forward to the most! The first large character in the game will be the Tyrant Lizard herself! It can't come fast enough.
@@TheBoardMeeting Thanks for your answer ! I really like Unmatched it's a super good game and I'm looking forward the translation in my language of the Bigfoot's set and the Cobble and Fog one :) Btw, I saw in the comments that someone was requesting an Unmatched Map Ranking, I think you should do it if possible :)
@@BlueTorchWeddings What has happened in the games I've been apart of he'll attack until the defender runs out of defense cards and then just kind of keeps teeing off. But that's just been my groups experience with him.
@@TheBoardMeeting yep when you are playing against him, just like any other unmatched character, the better you know his cards, the better you will be able to respond and counter. For example with Bruce it's best not to waste feints. Stop him after he plays the Second Jeet Kune Do, that way you can stop the attack. And then run away or counter with some serious damage of your own. This comes with experience, but you know what Bruce is gonna try to do. And if your opponent is loading up on attack cards then they probably don't have alot of defense cards. Hit him hard and then clear out. Just saying he is very very beatable and predictable. He is still my favourite character though ☺️. The combos are fun and unmatched could be a real poker game
@@TheBoardMeeting No big deal. Especially if your not familiar with Buffy. I certainly am not. This was good. I like to see others opinions. I love Beowulf. Sinbad is the lowest on the totem pole for me.
@@TheBoardMeeting I like her just fine but I wasn't like everyone else. My favorite released fighter is Beowulf. My favorite fighter of all time is coming up in Bol Vol.2! Really looking forward to that one.
That's how I felt when I made this video, and to be honest that's how I still kind of feel several months later. I keep getting told he isn't, but he usually wrecks when he is part of my group's games. Still fun to play though.
Biggest cap on this list. You clearly have no idea, go watch the tier lists of people playing Unmatched in tournaments. You set one of the strongest in low tier and lows in higher tiers..
It's insane, that they really managed to grasp the characters with their individual play. I truly feel like Robinhood or Invisible man when I play them in unmatched.
Absolutely, they have done an incredible job
You have to do the new version to this video with new caracteres like oda nobunaga, Golden bat etc.

Nice summary of all the characters. It will help me determine what sets I will get first.

@@TheBoardMeeting I was on there website, it looks like the have a good amount including a couple of Marvel ones. Pretty sweet!

I will probably redo this once all the marvel sets are out.

We have a lot of the same tastes. My top 3 are: Beowulf, Robin Hood and then Sherlock Holmes.
Those are some good choices!
From announcements and boards upcoming sets are
-battle of legends 2
-Jurassic park T-Rex
-4 marvel sets of 3 characters each
O I hadn't heard of BoL2. Have they announced who will be in the set?
All they said is one character will be “spooky”
@@johnwerner4471 Hmmmm, now I really want to know.
@@TheBoardMeeting Bloody Mary, Achilles, Yennenga and Sun Wukong

I have a pretty large group of friends who all enjoy Unmatched and what I think is awesome is every one of us has a different favorite to play as.
This is the first video I’m watching from you. Within 30 seconds I wanted to watch the whole video 👍🏼. Really well done.
Thanks for watching
I think you swap the spike/angels miniatures. Also, nice video.
I did. Thank you.

Beowolf is great, I like Dracula alot still. Very tough choices for me in the top 10.
I've only played the Cobble and Fog box and of those, haven't played with Jekyl/Hyde. My favorite so far has been Invisible Man.
The Cobble and Fog set might be my favorite set
On one part, I wanna buy all the expansions-on the other hand, *Cobble and Fogg* is such a perfect game with it's all Victorian atmosphere that I just never would want to ruin it, with all the irrelevant characters :D

Have you played with the new legends box? I'm curious if you'll make an updated list
Yes I have, I did a review on it. I think I'll make an updated list once all the marvel sets get released.
@@TheBoardMeeting cool I'll check it out. I've only just got cobble and fog and want to get another set as I love it
Awesome video.
I just got cobble and fog, played it twice and already want to buy another set

Great video. Your top 3 maps?
I was thinking of making a list, but I'm gonna wait till there are more since I think they are going to start making the maps more interactive

@@TheBoardMeeting Sounds like a worthy reason to me!
Does the Jurassic Park's map is fully compatible with the rest of the game?
You can use any characters on every map. The Jurassic Park map is a 2 player only map tho.

Your welcome! Those are great sets. Thanks for watching.
I don’t know if you’re still reading these comments but where would you put Trex in this list?
Probably somewhere in the lower half. It's pretty neat being able to be a big giant t rex, but his cards aren't that interesting to me.
@@TheBoardMeeting her* the T-Rex is a female
Spike model in Angel colour ring and Angel in Spike's! Whoops
Sadly ya
You mixed up the miniatures for Spike and Angel. 😅
Yep
Is this game good as a 2v2 game ?.
It's my favorite way to play the game
My fave is sun wukong becouse I play unmatched in home and i don't play in tournaments.
you switched angel and spyke character models...
Yep
Bruce Lee is to powerful, says the guy that has Medusa, Bigfoot and Sherlock in the top 5...
Bruce Lee is susceptible to faints
Yep, definitely is.
@@TheBoardMeeting his attack cards also never go pass 3/4 damage, so he is fast but blockable.
