I feel so validated rn. After the nerf to stormcell I swear every Raiden main has been downplaying the hell outta that character. Yeah, abusing stormcell made the character really good, but that was also on top of an already great kit in general. But after the nerf people were saying he's mid tier? I never thought so. And yeah, in my experience, most Raidens are pretty toxic too
I recently been using Raiden/ Darrius. He's a great character. Great buttons, ight zoning , good mix, good damage. People were just obsessed with OMG 50% 1 bar. The same way people think baraka sucks. They are bored or upset they can't be abused
@@Synical02 real. Those early game jax combo damage numbers were something else. But that forward 4 is still an awesome button that low profiles so many things
@@Tommy_Ace52In order for his zoning to be good it requires WAY too much setup, and lack of matchup knowledge imo. It really doesn't feel like the constant pressure that shang puts on.
Quan is super slept on bc he’s complicated to us.. but he’s literally the best character in the game to me if used right. I only start losing with him when I get villain guilt.
I'd maybe move Tanya as the top of the mid-tier category in my opinion. Kinda of like she was in MKX after her nerfs, kinda funny how she's in a similar position again in this game. I wouldn't put her in bottom 1/bottom tier but also I don't think she's a top tier. She is someone who I feel is meh, or in the middle. I just think they when it came to balancing her they only needed to nerf the split kick and that's it. As for her mid, it has increased startup frames and scales more heavily in combos than it did previously. So overall in my humble opinion she not too good and not too bad.
I personally agree that she is at least in top tier. Her range is so ridiculous and her runaway game is amazing. If you play a decent Tanya player, you just can’t get in on her or outzone her with her projectile absorber and air projectile. She may just be really tough against certain matchups but I personally dread playing against Tanya more than any other character in the game.
Nice list Dink! There´s an argument to be made for Johnny not being at the top. He does have to work hard in some matchups and unlike the rest of the BEST he doesnt have a 50/50 to open you up. You said he has great damage but all the rest of the BEST have higher damage, hype damage is occational and he has trouble activating in some matchups. If you are patient, he can only throw you. To me he belongs in the top of high tier with Homelander, Kenshi and Ermac.
Ya, but this is a kameo game. You never have to just use Scorpion alone in this game so it wouldn’t make sense to rank him that way imo. But ya, the kameo system does make it a little tougher to do tier lists.
Raiden above Ermac, Liu kang, homelander, Reiko, and Kenshi. Dk about that at all. Also Gotta HEAVILY disagree with Takeda he can get bullied VERY easily . Also Quan Chi is TERRIBLE. Lowest hp Worst normals Mediocre zoning Low damage.
Yeah raiden above all those characters is crazy bro, ermac is best tier, hes just so stupid and automatic strings is stupid, tanya is mid-low tier bro wth??? Geras is higher thatn that too, i dont know this list is kinda inaccurate
Why are you here and watching the video? There are a ton of games that no one cares about but you're here leaving comments on a video about a "Game you don't care about". Get a life troll

As much as I love Quan, he’s bottom 5. Terrible mid, terrible pokes, mid zoning and trash buttons imo
His zoning is top tier with the right kameo
I feel exactly the same. Awful hitboxes on his skeletal attacks, and no health either
He has weakness in every possible aspect but sure,he has the armor portal💀
@@Tommy_Ace52 While I do agree, zoning is ass in this game

he sucks, your opinion is insanely biased.
@ I win more than I lose and I only play him atm. Keep your easy character you probally play Cage/sareena
This isn't Quan. This is some weird multiverse Quan no one likes. THE Quan has rune, trance and says woolay
Speak for yourself. I think this quan plays super fun.
Yeah MK1 Quan is dope, big disagree

The smoke invis bug happened to me when my operas shujinko and went invisible then me with smoke went invisible and it stayed for rest of round
I’ve uninstalled MK1 😬 but I still enjoy your content Dink
I only disagree with Raidens and Tanya placements(id put them in mid) but solid list otherwise
Ermach is like a plague taking over the game him and Janet going from house to house like Santa Claus

I agree
Reiko standard bnb is 423 with Tremor and one bar )
Quan overhead needs less frames
Nitara can 2 combo herself with ferra
Reptile top tier really?
Yeah hes very balanced
Lao mid tier is laughable with sektor
I disagree with you on Li Mei
Tier lists are asinine if you’re ranking the character and not the team.
Limei is not worst AT ALL!!!!😅
Who's worse than her?
Li Mei worse than all them??idk about that
Scorpion at high tier? He alone has no literal mixes. But has good staggers that are all highs.
F34 is an amazing mid stagger
Ya, but this is a kameo game. You never have to just use Scorpion alone in this game so it wouldn’t make sense to rank him that way imo. But ya, the kameo system does make it a little tougher to do tier lists.
Pair Ferra with him and then talk to me about having no mix LOL
Li Mei not that bad nor is Quan.
Raiden above hl kenshi ermac? Whatdo i miss
Raiden above Ermac, Liu kang, homelander, Reiko, and Kenshi.
Dk about that at all.
Also Gotta HEAVILY disagree with Takeda he can get bullied VERY easily .
Also Quan Chi is TERRIBLE.
Lowest hp
Worst normals
Mediocre zoning
Low damage.
Yeah homelander and kenshi 10000% better than Raiden he tripping w that one
@@djvbeats8701 Takeda is also FUCKING TRASH.
He's so slow, and they nerfed his damage
HMMMMMM EERILY SIMILAR TO A CERTAIN TIERLIST MADE RECENTLY
Crazy how not kitana players still think she’s top she’s not top bro she’s mid at best
Raiden one of the best? 😂
Yeah raiden above all those characters is crazy bro, ermac is best tier, hes just so stupid and automatic strings is stupid, tanya is mid-low tier bro wth??? Geras is higher thatn that too, i dont know this list is kinda inaccurate
Who cares about a tier list for a game no one plays+ cares about competitively.
Why are you here and watching the video? There are a ton of games that no one cares about but you're here leaving comments on a video about a "Game you don't care about". Get a life troll
quan is not the worst and raiden is low mid, what are you on :)))
Who's worse than Quan?
@@shujinkydink raiden :P
