By this tests' standards, Red Tails being the winner is natural, But there's a bit of a catch here. In actuality, Metal Sonic is the fastest character in the game in terms of Top Speed. Red Tails is only faster in terms of Acceleration from a Stand-Still. I'm a SA2 speedrunner and I've put in a ton of hours into researching how the 2P Mode characters operate for specific categories; and thanks to debug mods, we can see the approximate horizontal speed values for each character. Red Tails' Top Running Speed clocks in at '6.99' by the game's speed values, but Metal Sonic has a Top Running Speed that clocks in at '8.88'; It just takes a little bit for him to reach that. Best place to see this is on an endless straightaway (such as the Sonic/Shadow 2 arena). Red Tails is quick on the draw, but Metal Sonic moves so fast the camera has to zoom out just to keep him onscreen with the rival boss. Also Fun Fact: If you were to take abilities into consideration abilities, Metal Sonic's Black Shield can get him to clock in at speeds in the 19's in certain places- almost 3 times as fast as Red Tail's top ground speed.
Commenting to hopefully boost this a bit for visibility, dude knows his stuff for sure. Just comes with the territory of "fast" being a pretty ambiguous term.
Yeah I wanted to come up with a more fun challenge rather then just compare the speed values. Im hoping this is interesting enough that we can come up with other challenges with different rules/obstacles which will make for different results and show off how the characters change under different situations
Makes sense, I remember in the two player mode that the description comments on Metal Sonic's acceleration. Which made me figure that was what would hurt Sonic and Shadow's time, with how long it takes for them to gain momentum.
The real fastest character is Big the Cat. You see him in most cutscenes, but if you blink, then you miss him. It was almost like he wasn't there to begin with.
Makes sense that Mechless Eggman is able to outrun Sonic. You could never catch up to him at the end of Sonic 2 when he's running for his giant Eggman mech lol.
@@EpicDuskk I can't remember what it's from, but I'm reminded of a line from a TV show or maybe a movie, where a character says he or someone else just loves to chase things, but he has no idea what to do if he ever catches them. I wonder if that's what Sonic's like, he has no idea what to do if he actually catches Eggman, so all he does it keep pace and breaks the mechs.
Same, I used to think it was Rouge or Shadow. I think the reason why some characters feels faster than they actually are in the Chao Garden is because of how small and limited the space is.
A part 2 with their abilities and stuff like tails flying, glides, homing attacks, punches and more would be honestly very interesting. Just a gauntlet of movement options to see which is the slowest and which is the fastest
Haven't watched yet, but I feel like some of the fastest are probably like... Red Tails, Tikal, Metal Sonic and the Chao Walker are at the very least in the top 5. Edit: Wow, I was *not* expecting mechless Eggman to be that fast, especially when mechless Tails was the worst of the worst.
Id like to see this factoring in acceleration, because acceleration is how fast you reach top speed not top speed itself I’d like to see if it was just acceleration that let red mech tails claim first over metal There’s roughly a 2 second difference between them and that could have all been metal accelerating
dannggg i did not know mech-less tails was so slow in this game i never felt it heh. you should definitely make a part two that involves slopes cuz slopes be having interesting properties for these characters (especially with knuckles since its the only way to see his top speed animation) . this video opened my eyes ngl tho so nice !
so fun fact that i just found out by doing my own research in game, turns out Sonic IS faster than Tikal in terms of top speed- not by much. but Tikal's acceleration is MUCH faster. the same thing goes for Knuckles and rouge- though they are even slower than Tikal is in terms of top speed, if you were to take Knuckles or Rouge and put them next to sonic, and make them both run forward at the exact same time, they WOULD take the lead for a moment, but just like Tikal, would eventually get left behind. I also tried testing Metal Sonic and the Chao walker against each other and they were surprisingly VERY close. I put both characters on Meteor herd since it was much larger than metal harbor. placing them side by side i really thought that Chao Walker was going to win due to his high base speed AND his very fast acceleration, but after a while of moving forward in a straight line Metal sonic gets a very sudden and VERY noticeable burst of speed out of nowhere and just zooms right past. this is the speed tier list that **I** made, based on the actual top character speeds. and not counting acceleration. Keep in mind i used the Physics swap mod instead of using the actual characters themselves. i dont believe that should cause any problems and everything SHOULD be accurate, then again i'm not positive. these are just my findings so take them with a grain of salt. (I didnt bother testing Red tails because OriginalityAce has already stated that Metal has a higher top speed and i'm kinda just taking his word for it) 1st. Metal Sonic 2nd. Chao Walker 3rd. Mechless Eggman 4th. Sonic/Shadow 5th.Tikal 6th.Knuckles/Rouge 7th.Mech Tails/ Mech Eggman 8th. Dark Chao Walker 9th. Amy 10th. Chaos 11th. Mechless Tails I was surprised to find that in my game Dark Chao Walker was faster than both Chaos AND Amy. i dont have any mods installed that should affect any of the mech characters at all so i dont know why he would be so much faster for me. Maybe its because i used the physic swap mod and not the character itself but i wouldnt think thats the case because basically all the other characters speeds lined up almost perfectly with the video. if anyone wants to try and scale the characters speed for themselves and see if they get different results, then this is exactly how i did mine. First you'll want to make sure you have the Physics swap mod in your SA Mod Manager, You'll be going into the 2 player battle mode and selecting the treasure hunting game mode where Knuckles, Rouge, Tikal, And Chaos are available. which means thats you'll want to use the physics swap mod to change their physics to whatever characters you'll want to compare. make sure you turn the in game timer off in the stage select menu so that you have all the time you need to test however many times you want. Pick Meteor Herd, and on the left of your spawn you'll find one of the little floating computer thingies that gives you hints. I used that area to place both characters directly next to one another. in front of the floating computer there is a large stretch of flat land to have the characters run across. all you need to do then is just line up your characters cameras in a straight line and have them both run forward across the stretch of land at the same time, dont pay attention to whoever hits the wall on the other side of the map first, instead pay attention to whoever is falling behind and from their screen, see if they ever start catching up to whoever is in front. If they do? then that should mean their top speed is higher. i know it would probably be easier to just check the characters actual speed values but i couldnt find them anywhere on the internet, so this is what i ended up doing and it was surprisingly really fun and interesting! there may be better ways to gauge speed in game but this is just how i found myself doing it.
Great Video! It would be interesting to see the difference if acceleration wasn't part of the equation. Sonic and Shadow both have a very slow acceleration in this game. But a strong top speed. It would probably take mods to make this possible since I can't think of a fair way to do this in the base game
Even just seeing who can reach the end goal the quickest with use of their abilities would be interesting. Sonic spam dashing has to be faster than Legman.
sonic running through a field at top speed, minding his own business. hears some super rapid metal clunking sounds. tails blows past him like he's standing still
there's an error in the final standings, as you put Tikal's 8.95 above Eggman's 8.56. Otherwise good video! I knew Chao Walker and Metal were fast but not that fast!
This was actually all expected tbh. As a teen, I used to test this various ways, because tikal always felt faster than sonic, as did mechless Eggman, and that never sat right with me lmao.
@@EpicDuskk isn’t 06 an adventure game? Not a big deal and I forgot you’d probably have to get a rom for it. I take it that heroes isn’t something you’d be interested in?
@@YourAverageNerd06 No chao garden = no adventure in my opinion lol. I do enjoy the pre-boost era sonic games like Heros, 06, etc. But imo only Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 are "adventure style" games.

@@EpicDuskk Unleashed Sonic was pretty fast, but I think they did slow him down in later games so they wouldn't need to make the levels so big. Adventure 1 Sonic might have been the fastest with that op spindash. I think Heroes Sonic had the fastest normal running speed.
@@Dante... I think they also slowed him down because people had skill issues and couldn't handle the speed. I know when I was younger Unleashed sometimes felt too fast, but man I wish we could have that speed again.
Id say so. Metal sonic actually does have a higher base speed then red tails, but slow acceleration. This video is sort of a test to see if this type of content is fun, I want to do more experiments maybe on different levels or using different rules.
Definitely yes on a no-abilites-barred test. It will require much more troubleshooting for maxing a character's speed efficiency, but sounds like the fun of it.
Yeah the plan is to do more tests under different conditions. I wanted to try to find a way to make it more fun then "look at these numbers on a spreadsheet" Id like to maybe make it like those smash brothers "who can beat the X jump" style videos. Maybe come up with some other challenges for these guys
also, i wonder if theres an easy way to actually-modify the levels (i mean, the "Any Character, Any Stage" bit is already a pre-packed code with ActionReplay, iirc), to put a Ring Trail along this "dragstrip" of an aircraft carrier...i wanna know how fast Sonic/Shadow's Light Dash can go...
It always frustrated me, that sonic cannot reach TopSpeed by himself, unless he’s running downhill as he can tell when his hands are not behind his back
My prediction was Red Tails and/or Metal for top spot, and one of the mechs for bottom spot. I didn't think there would be characters without mechs that were slower than the mechs. Also, Sonic the Hedgehog who? Now that we have confirmed that Eggman is faster, I demand a game built around him called "Egg the Man".
BTW Hearing you screaming, swearing and laughing at the same time, makes you sounds like from someone who love streaming GTA games named “Hugo One” he’s my favorite streamer too!
Not hating just being scientific, Tikal got stopped early, the rest of the characters stopped in between the 2 walls at the end of the runway, Tikal stops before. Was noticeable because Tikal didn’t grab the ring. Fun little video
what is utterly bizarre about mechless tails when I experimented with him is that he is faster going up the stairs in the chao lobby than on flat road, his acceleration and speed values are just odd.
I always thought as a kid metal sonic was the fastest when you go downhill and hold his shield, but then I remember my friend having red tails. and he wouldn't tell me how he got it 🤣 and told me I had to beat following the president with crazy time at exactly a certain number of minutes and seconds I was tricked.. good times 🧐
I'm actually surprised that you didn't give Black Mech Eggman a time trial in this since like Red Mech Tails he is also a multiplayer exclusive with the main in-game difference being the lack of a homing missile weapon / lock-on system like everyone else.
Try meteor heard for your next speed video because the mechs for some reason have a faster run speed in that stage and cosmic wall along with weapons bed
Commenting while Amy's up: I haven't tested the mechs, so I'm not sure where they rank, but I know that if the mechs are excluded the fastest characters, in order, are Metal Sonic, Mechless Eggman, Sonic/Shadow, and Tikal. This is only in terms of top speed, disregarding acceleration - I wouldn't be surprised if Metal Sonic didn't rank as high due to his slow acceleration or if Tikal ranked higher due to her fast acceleration.
bro mechless eggman u can see how fast he is in the room between the chao gardens, that weird space room, And mechless eggman has faster acceleration than sonic too. I never knew there was even a red and fast Tails that actually speeds him up.
Veterans of Sonic 2 and Sonic and Knuckles will not be surprised at losing a footrace to Eggman.
Sonic 3 and Knuckles as well
I bet he gave himself robot legs.
Sonic 1 final boss has left the chat
Making him just a tiny bit faster than Sonic was a great nod to the classic series!
Great comment
Tails being the fastest, slowest, and in the middle is hilarious.

4:02 "imagine losing a foot race to Eggman" - someone needs to go replay Sonic 2 😂
Even with the spin dash, he couldn't catch him! 😂
The fact eggman is faster than sonic and shadow is so funny to me. Well seeing him walk on his own is also pretty funny tbh
I mean, look at the classic games. Eggman regularly outruns sonic to reach his mechs or escape when they’re destroyed. He’s a zoomy boy.
@@IHOMilkProbably got robot legs.

Hey, it's not his speed! He must be using the chaosemeraldowarpmynameis Shadow
As a kid I always used to play Eggman in the Chao garden because it made me laugh how fast he could run lmao
Same honestly. I love how his legs bend when he runs in a circle lol
Eggman KFC Run - Chao Edition
Makes sense that Mechless Eggman is able to outrun Sonic. You could never catch up to him at the end of Sonic 2 when he's running for his giant Eggman mech lol.
Tails coming in first, last and seventh all at once is amazing 😂
I love how that means Eggman is the fastest thing alive
Red Tails and Chao Walker: Needs a Mech
Metal Sonic: Is a robot
Tikal: um... About that...
She's dead,so she's the fastest dead thing on earth
She was the fastest thing alive, not currently
Um i think he meant Tikal is dead or that Epic Dusk has put Tikal above Eggman even tho Eggman is faster.
Sonic has lost to a foot race to eggman miltiple times actually. The blue blur can never seem to catch with the egg-shaped scientist.
Maybe he loses on purpose because he just likes having big dramatic fights with eggman

Kudos to sonic team for making eggman faster than sonic and shadow, that's consistency from sonic 2 for sure.
😂 I hope they do it in a new title too
Of course Eggman is faster, his egg shape is perfectly aerodynamic
Sonic not being the fastest character in the game feels like a crime against humanity
I thought it couldn't be Red Tails because I'd think he only has that speed while hovering but wow, he really does have a rocket booster on that mech
I always thought it was knuckles, so I played him in the chao garden when I was younger. Dude is always ZOOMIN
Everyone feels fast in the chao garden, even mechless tails. I was surprised he was the SLOWEST outside the garden.

It's technically lore-accurate, since in the Genesis games Eggman can outrun Sonic pretty easily.

There is a debug mod that shows you the speed of the characters
Oh yeah that would have been as fun to do for a video, I love looking at numbers on a spreadsheet
@@EpicDuskk I think you're ironic, but I do actually love looking at numbers on a spreadsheet.
This was so entertaining!
Glad you think so!
You know it makes sense that Eggman is faster than Sonic, just look at the original games Sonic can't catch that guy.
Commenting while Amy's up: I haven't tested the mechs, so I'm not sure where they rank, but I know that if the mechs are excluded the fastest characters, in order, are Metal Sonic, Mechless Eggman, Sonic/Shadow, and Tikal. This is only in terms of top speed, disregarding acceleration - I wouldn't be surprised if Metal Sonic didn't rank as high due to his slow acceleration or if Tikal ranked higher due to her fast acceleration.
5:54
why is tikal above eggman when eggman finished faster than her?
Was a mistake that I didnt realize till a few days after uploading
I think they paying homage to sonic 2 with this
Eegman without even seeing the video
Super fun video... Mostly just commenting for the algorithm
And I appreciate that gamer 😎
Hmm, I wonder how fast all 12 of the playable characters in heroes are( with the fly types on the floor, and not carrying the other characters )
Chaos does make sense he's the slowest in sonic battle too
You should test with the values from the physics swap mod, heroes sonic vs metal sonic's speed
to be fair eggman is almost double sonic's height... bro takes one step to sonic's three LMAO
But what about Big and the OG Chao Walker? Y'know, from the Dreamcast version
I think their stats are the same, but thats something to look into for a future test for sure
5:03 in other words eggman it's the true Faster thing ALIVE.
bro mechless eggman u can see how fast he is in the room between the chao gardens, that weird space room, And mechless eggman has faster acceleration than sonic too. I never knew there was even a red and fast Tails that actually speeds him up.
Eggman is faster than Sonic in Sonic 2 and here he is still faster than Sonic . I'm suprised
Playing Super Sonic Racing was a nice touch ;)
Im so glad you noticed because I thought it was super clever 😂
Tails is *done* playing around.
Now how about going downhill in City Escape?
Have you tried it with super sonic/super shadow
I should have 😭
Well, in many games you see that Eggman outspeeds Sonic.
How would Big the Cat in a mech fare?
awesome video
