The 7 console-only characters have gotten 125 points collectively since the game came out. ST August-May: just for fun, here are the winningness numbers for the old game. 33 points from Taira @ Dictator, 10 from ASTEKA @ Blanka.

Haha, I liked Shogatsu having an entry as O.Honda.
ReplyDeleteSo, judging by the largest gaps in wins between blocks of characters, we first have Sagat far in front of all.
ReplyDeleteRyu and Balrog significantly far in front of the rest. You can reasonably assert that the top three are too strong, and about Sagat there is no doubt.
The middle field down to Guile are reasonably even.
Claw, Fuerte and Console characters are lagging so badly that they likely can be judged as too weak (yes, all of them) - with the caveat that the console only characters are far less exposed.
Berzerk: You'll have to put in the equation how much the character is being played as well.
ReplyDeleteLook in the ST-winnings for example, nobody would say that Ryu is over Claw or Sim, but there is so many Ryu players, and the cream of the crop heads, that plays him so he is more "winning" than everybody else, except for Dic...
Yeah 356 that's about the size of it. For SF4 character popularity is a big factor. Also even though there are a lot of events all over the place Kensou Viper and Arturo Dhalsim winning week after week still make a good dents (moving those characters a couple of places on the 10-month chart.)
ReplyDeleteFor ST the game is more obscure so it's simply a matter of who shows up. ARG wins almost every damn thing he enters but he lives kind of far doesn't make it to many events. If Muteki and Kurahashi were playing lately Guile would be top 3 easy.
You can reasonably assert that the top three are too strong, and about Sagat there is no doubt.
No way. I mean you can assert that if you want whether it's reasonable or not would be up for debate.
Besides the points made above those winningest lists I post are very crude, non-scientific, just for fun.
Take boxer. Yes people are winning with him all over the place. On the other hand only one has qualified for SBO so far. Gootecks said he's trying to find a sub character. Aojiru is struggling to stay in the top 20 battle point rankings. Cab I think there are other factors at play but he can't seem to beat anyone any more keeps losing first round at TRF.
It's possible (I don't claim this just throwing it out there) that Boxer's power starts to fade a bit when you get to the very top skill level. People learn matchup nuances and he starts to see fewer and fewer chances for crouching jabjabjab. Maybe.
LOL I didn't even notice until just now the Shogatsu entry. <3 that beast
