Their -8 score would put them 3rd tier, when in fact they'd be a terrific choice for tourneys on both sides of the Pacific (fixed char or blind pick.)<BR/><BR/>Here are the characters listed in order of what their worst matchup is on the chart above.<BR/><BR/>4.5: Claw, Boxer<BR/>4: Chun<BR/>3.5: Sim<BR/>3: Dic, Ryu<BR/>2.5: Ken, Fei<BR/>2: DJ, Blanka, Cammy<BR/>1.5: Honda, Gief, Guile, Hawk<BR/>1: Sagat<BR/><BR/>Guile joins Bison and Ryu if bribes the bracket maker to avoid Dhalsims. Similar situation for Sagat. Otherwise that looks like a good tier list to me.<BR/><BR/>Check out Raisin's comment on the Super Diagram Turbo post for a related meta look at things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5234895930461762189.post-69841148609572002362008-11-21T18:48:00.000-05:002008-11-21T18:48:00.000-05:00This is so sexy.

Dictator's MU's against the most popular characters (read: top and high tier) are actually better than listed. If they weren't, I doubt we'd see so many tourneys where a Dic makes top 3. By the listed MUs, Dic is middle tier overall, and if we were to weight his placing based on who you'll likely run into during a tournament, he'd be low tier.<BR/><BR/>There's no way in hell the, arguably, 3rd most popular character in ST is low tier.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I'm talking a 5 tier top->bottom system, not the 4 tier top->low system the JP tiers usually use. I don't know why JP players have a problem with saying a character is bottom tier. If there's a top there's a bottom lol<BR/><BR/>:DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5234895930461762189.post-90885646919607298982008-11-21T05:15:00.000-05:002008-11-21T05:15:00.000-05:00The most important thing is to get Zangief with a ...The most important thing is to get Zangief with a walk-in throw at the beginning of each round.

At least for O. Hawk, his d+fp splash owns up Chun for free and jump jab seems to take care of any air to air encounters when getting close. I know New Hawk's d+fp splash has a different hitbox in terms of crossup ability, but I'm not sure if its also less effective against Chun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5234895930461762189.post-85585916591085112432008-11-14T11:58:00.000-05:002008-11-14T11:58:00.000-05:00Hi David!That's neat that you got to duke it out w...Hi David!<BR/><BR/>That's neat that you got to duke it out with Muteki.<BR/><BR/><I>but even Gian's corresponding number agrees with Muteki.</I><BR/>This chart was a little different than the one I put together. Here the players submitted their own numbers but then Gian fiddled with them to get the rows and columns to match up.<BR/><BR/>Elsewhere in the magazine Gian writes about how looking at things through the lens of sbo 08 claw proved to be the top of the top. Lack of weaknesses is a key thing for him. Also what puts chun over ryu regardless of what the numbers say.<BR/><BR/><I>Also, how are you supposed to give the numbers again, is it based on what typically happens at the highest levels, or more theoretical?</I><BR/>It's not clear. My guess is the former. If the two are really at odds with each other (like, perhaps gief-sim) doesn't that mean that the theory is wrong? Kind of weird that we (= fighting game players from all over) like to talk about tiers so much but never really sorted out what the terms are.nohohohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207522486838473583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5234895930461762189.post-85706662148534413082008-11-14T00:17:00.000-05:002008-11-14T00:17:00.000-05:00Thanks Nohoho!

Dhalsim (I think 1 is generous), but even Gian's corresponding number agrees with Muteki. Claw (and old sagat) are not really used much in Japan, I wonder if that skews things, ie Claw getting lower ranked than Dhalsim and even Boxer here.... Also, how are you supposed to give the numbers again, is it based on what typically happens at the highest levels, or more theoretical? eg Dhalsim has tons of options and wins against characters like Zangief and Hawk, but once they get in with the spd pattern on him, it's a big swing in the round and suddenly you can throw all that theory out the window praying for a throw or reversal teleport. If Dhalsim ever has to catch up, besides his super it has to be through good reads on countering the opponent's next move.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
