i feel like the community is so divided on doom stone. one tier list puts it at the top, this one puts it at the bottom. who do i believe
I feel like most of the hype around Doom Stone is because he was the last Swap Force character released, kinda like Wham Shell and Lightcore Hex. Hes good but it kinda depends on what difficulty you're on
Doom is a great top that makes some attacks on the bottom viable when they previously weren’t (namely fire kraken’s “the big one”). But the bottom is atrocious because it increases your hitbox and just isn’t that effective.
From my experience playing him, he has invincibility from the shield which can be rather cheesy, but his damage output is absolutely abhorrent.
His top half is pretty good defensivly and using his shield can cancel any attack early,yep even being in the air as rise,doom NEEDS a good damaging bottom half as doom has some of the worst dps out of all the top halves,stone is easily the worst bottom half,but overall i would put doom in C tier and stone in F tier.
@@rubyjrdx that's what I said in my post, he has the cheese strats with the shield but that's it, his primary is pretty underwhelming and can't really pull his weight
41:32 “You need something more than just a spammy projectile to be good.”
Drobot in top 3: 🦖
FINALLY I found a Skylanders tier list, no one really talks about what Skylanders are good or bad in gameplay. Thanks for making this
swappers combo ranking is in the works rn which is cool,but sadly this vid has alot of misinformation and lackluster testing for the skylanders.
Cough cough, Crash the Skylands Cough couch
I hated that they bragged all previous Skylanders were playable in new games but they always nerfed the crap out of them so u needed current characters. So dirty. Wish they'd make a new game where all old characters r usable & powerful so ppl who have massive collections can enjoy them on a bunch of new levels & make them all scannable & in a digital library nicely organized (better than switch imaginators)
About Dino Rang! One thing that has to be mentioned is that his boomerang shield reflects projectiles which is a MASSIVE BOON in Swap Force! Swap Force has propably the most deflectable projectiles in the whole series. With the upgrade that makes the shield last longer, you can destroy Tech Geargolems with their own bullets while being completely safe.
well I knew that I'd miss something, still thats some pretty useful tech, probably only moves him to Countdowns placement. Reflecting projectiles is really broken in this game
@@Dymastia Thats fair, I honestly didnt even expect you would tackle SSA and Giants characters in this ranking but its badass that you did!
I only knew about this because I love Dino Rang, and he was one the few Skylanders I didnt sell off in my childhood. And when I got back into the series, I started with Swap Force
@@szymonlewandowski9690 Dino Rang was one of the first Skylanders that I bought after the starter pack, so I got a bit of a connection to him as well
This went into my recommended, I have only a tertiary knowledge of Skylanders from my little stepbrother, but I still do not understand a word
10:02 One reason why so many of the melee Spyro's Adventure and Giants characters' attacks feel so sluggish in Swap Force (rip Terrafin) might be that Vicarious Visions overdid the "hitstop" for animations!
Hitstop is a fighting game animation trick where you "stop"/"pause" the player and enemy animation right once a hit lands. It's not something you can always see when played at full speed, but you can definitely feel it. When done properly it really sells the strength and impact of an attack! (Smash Bros. is a great example.)
But hanging on it *too long* can make things feel slow, and at worst make the character feel unresponsive-each frame that the animation is paused can feel like a delay between when you press the button for the next attack and when it actually comes out. Go frame by frame in the video on Terrafin's punches (using "," and "." when paused) and you can see just how long he holds on a pose and that "hitstop!"
Also, great vid by the way! The time taken to edit everything together sounds insane haha, but it really paid off!
yea,its honestly one of the main reasons i dont like the VV engine games that much,the hitstop pausing is rlly annoying,for example free rangers primarys projectlie counts as a melee hit which means it does the hitstop,so if u let a projectile go through like 20 chompys ur stuck frozen for like 3 secs which is so dumb,i dont like using melee skylanders in VV engine games because of hitstop
ngl I've been waiting for this. Nice to see these games get this type of analysis. No one else has looked into character balancing like this. So yeah, good work
If u like swappers then there is a deffinitive swapper combo ranking chart and video that im helping a fellow skytuber make,it is THE best swapper teirr list and it will reveal the worst swapper of all time AND the best swapper which is NOT who u think it is
I love these videos so much! It's also so refreshing to watch a genuinely well-made tier list about gameplay.
its not well made mate srry so say,the research and testing was lackluster and dymastia should have put more time into testing and research because there is alot of misinformation in this vid,i love his other vids but this one is just not great,entertaining...but factually wrong most of the time,jat vac should be S tier because of a 'tech' called "corkscrew loops" which has one of if not the highest dps in swap force next to grilla's double drilling punches
@@rubyjrdxwell, I guess it's ok for you to think that, but I thought it was very entertaining, plus he redid a lot of the raknings at the end to make up for some poor decisions.
the vid was entertaining i agree,but there are times where i stop enjoying the vid and instead get sad at the fact dymastia gets multiple things wrong@@ludwig7022
wrecking ball's tertiary attack does have a use. if you eat an enemy, the burp gains a lot more range, damage, and speed. i don't know if this is in spyro's adventure or swap force, but it is in giants.
I actually did notice something different about the attack when I was using him when gathering footage, but must not have been that important if I forgot numerous times while editing LMAO
The way you deliver "He's just a little guy, but he's a little ANGRY" is slightly iconic
I still sometimes repeat it to myself
I'm guessing controllers with back buttons or paddles would make gill grunt easier. Idk. I'm kind of just a casual player who just enjoys all their cool powers & has a soft spot for Halloween type ones especially but they're really all so cool in their own ways which is why I collected them all😂
Really enjoyed watching this tier list in combination with your previous two tier lists to see the highs and lows of each Skylander!
Me and my mate are about to do a two-player nuzlocke from SSA to Trap Team on Nightmare, so keeping these build paths and playstyle rankings in mind is definitely something we'll be doing 🤝
Cheers, I'm definitely looking forward to the Trap Team tier list later this year!
"The babies die in 1-2 hits" bro pause
To be fair, most babies die in 1-2 hits
As someone who has never even touched a Skylander I think you’re wrong on a lot of your opinions, also what is a wow pack?
a wow pow is an additional move a skylander can obtain if you are using their series 2, series 3, or series 4 figures, also known as reposes. no, you don't unlock multiple higher the series number is, thats just counting "oh this is the 3rd figure since the original", a skylander can only have 1 wow pow, and the wow pow is different depending on the figure, so for example, a series 3 spyro will have an entirely different wow pow compared to a series 2 spyro.
Decided to watch your older videos today for no reason at all and got surprised by a new one 🙀
please make one for trap team 🙏
YES STAR STRIKE FOREVER
26:09 you can also hold down the left and right buttons on the controller to use the other moves, makes using Gill Grunt easier
Great video, I've been here since the giants video, and I've been loving it, keep up the great work!
Also, I would love to see a tier list video on all the combination of the swappable skylanders.
I liked watching you do these tier lists for all 3 games. It brought me a lot of nostalgia.
A destiny weapon in a skylanders video comment section ???
@@gyrozeppeli8303 Correction: the BEST Destiny weapon in a Skylander's video.
You'll find me in a lot of unsuspecting places.
Giants were buffer i tell you!
Jumping makes then Way less vulnerable
Can we also get a Villians tier list along with the regular Skylanders tier list when you get to Trap Team?
I'd say that Hot Head peaks in Trap Team, cause there's a glitch where if you press jump and his primary attack at the same time, he'll do a dash that gives him crazy mobility and makes his soul gem obsolete
This sounds so much like a scam I am checking right now
@@szymonlewandowski9690it works for blast zone also, it’s used in speed runs. It’s called hyper speed
I have recently discovered a similar speed glitch with eye-brawl that involves galloping your thumb over the jump and then the primary attack. It works with eye-small as well but it's more difficult (both this glitch and the hot head one I found were both on accident)
Thunderbolt has something similar
Sprocket is also really good in TT but most people won't use her there
The last 10 minutes were the funniest thing I've watched in a long time
man. my favorites as a kid were sprocket and terrafin bc they looked cool 😂 now i know why i remember sucking ass at these games.
I appreciate everyone who still going with this Community i respect you
I don’t like how they straight up nerfed Hex.
Absolute heartbreak of terrafin being so bad in this game 😭
The ol' one-two is simply not as good as it used to be
literally playing Spyros Adventure right now and the difference is night and day between the 2 versions
Damn I haven't thought about this game in a hot minute, but its cool to see that all my favorites (Flashwing, Star Strike and Smolderdash) are all top tier lmao
Your skylanders videos is so underated keep it up
For all the games before Imaginators you can use the shoulder buttons for attacks so that isn’t a problem until Imaginators
OOOHHH MY GOD. Someone still cares about skylanders :)
I am CRAZY happy someone still does skylanders vids
Putting Terrafin down that low is criminal
He's good in ssa and giants (normal mode and below only though). But he's pretty ass in swap force (nightmare mode)
It’s nice to see skylanders like punk-shot and roller brawl actually have good things to be said about them on a tier list, I personally think roller brawl should have been top of B but I think they were alright placements.
OF COURSE I ENJOY, YOUR AMAZING
nice tier list portal master friend
i use whoever i think is the coolest
you forgot to attach the gigachad image
@@Dymastiadamn
Skylanders content is always welcome
+goated ror2 music
^ formerly known as purple
13:57 actually the camo variant is called series 2
I saw none mention how dune bags balls can bypass shields giving him a niche and atleast making him C tier
As a chop chop main I must say thank u
SLOBBER TOOTH MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥
I will be here. Waiting for the Trap Team tier list.
Because I know for a fact that it will be upwards of 3 hours >:)
I’d like to point out for trigger happy that his blast attack still harms spinning enemies and so far shatters the shield to the beginning enemies
I’m still testing others, but I feel like that should be noted
I really want to critisize the fact that the tier list is based much more on raw power this time, but also, it's freakin Swap-Force we're talking about ! All the game feels like an arena battle, so I guess it's fiting.
Wrecking ball disrespect must be abolished
No, I will continue to disrespect the soccer ball until the day I die
@@Dymastia but look at his face and tell me you can still say d tier
@@R3SP3CT08just for saying that he gets F tier now
@@R3SP3CT08 Just like in real life short people finish last
apart of me hates to admit it but prism break in swap force just isnt the same, prism break s2 in giants was peak of prism break, on the second attack path you can spam those prisms and use a speed hat to make up for his lack of it, along with the charged shot working with or without the prisms (if you doubt it just try beating nightmare mode on giants with only prism break, youll thank me when the arkeyan juggernaut tries to shoot your prisms instead of you)
scratch is arguably the strongest Skylander in swap force. She can solo nightmare mode no problem and has by far and away the best damage output of any character in this game (ruby path). The only characters you can kind of make a case for being better is either cynder or roller brawl because of how mobile both of them are and therefore can also solo nightmare exceptionally easily too. The don't deal anything close to her dps though. there are some majorly shitty takes in this video I have to say.
Boom jet chillin tho
@@woah8921 he's very good yea. I don't like his bottom much but his top is very effective
We gotta complete the list for the rest of games :D
Next up a very mixed game with a very mixed concept and where the places will be switched again with another tier list (villains), some cooked some half baked, love these actual well researched vids and can’t wait for you to do a tier list of the actual games (though last place should be obvious nuts and bolts 2, I think) also the minis count as separate entries for worse and better.
Literally haven't played Trap Team since launch, cant wait to play it again, I'll probably do a ranking of the games at some point. I was also thinking of doing a video ranking the levels in each game, because the next video is not gonna be the trap team ranking.
srry but the research in this vid is very lackluster and has alot of misinformation and should have had more time to cook and get the proper testing done for the skylanders,i love his other vids but this one is fine,but is missing vital info for skylanders and seems very rushed,dymatia should reach out the community for extra info,theres nothing wrong with asking the community for info and can lead to overall better and more well researched vid
@@rubyjrdx and what’s exactly is wrong with the video besides your vague complaints?
like i sed i need help from a fellow ssf expert to list ALL the things that were wrong or dym didnt mention,cos there are ALOT@@diegoizaguirre3452
Swarm should be higher. Probably not S, but he isn't hit as hard as the other giants when the game isn't designed around his kind.
the base health and damage got increased on everything in this game and also level 20 Skylanders is the max level. They are not buffs the stat system just got changed in this game with higher hp and damage on Skylanders and enemies
I still think Thumpback is a lot better than you make him out to be, but I respect the effort you put into ranking so many characters much more lol
Every swap force in a nutshell

bro really started the whole spiel with “ohio bird”
Cannot BELIEVE the Crusher slander in this vid but W either way
Dude, Dune bugs ball attack can ALSO knock enemies off the edge.
I think dune bug is actually one of the best skylanders in this game if you play him right. His secondary attack is like a waayyy better version of magna charge with throwing bros off cliffs
Skylanders superchargers has a jet-vac variant that can trhow enemies of cliffs too
😅😅😂😂😂😂
We ever getting a trap team tier list? 👉🏻👈🏻
Innit
If I am not mistaken, they didn’t make attacks go slower but rather every time you hit an enemy it slows down. Seriously, try hitting nothing with Terrafin and then hit training dummies in Swap Force, you will see the slowness.
Great ranking by the way 👍
that would make sense, I would assume they did that to make the hits seem more impactful but since enemies don't stagger it really just hurts a lot of skylander's potential
trap shadow isn't as bad as people think. he can actually attack with his primary while being invisible
AIR SKYLANDER FANS WAKE UPPPP 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
Munkey
Terrible video, you left out the greatest character: Template Template
The last 10 minutes of the video is so unbelievably funny
I’m glad, was thinking that it was just incoherent babbling, by the way I did end up changing my mind about a few placements. So oops
I respect your opinion, but Doom Stone I believe is actually a great Skylander, especially in battle mode as he can block attacks and re direct ranged attacks.
Free ranger’s blade path is better in my opinion, you do 25 damage for each hit, finishing damage is 100, AND you can move and it only takes like a second to charge, he deserves to be higher, the lightning path is kinda disappointing tbh
I used Terrafin to defeat the Fire Viper for the no damage star.
I don’t Like Dune Bug either; especially compared to the other magic additions to swap force. But you can trap enemies in his Ball an throw them off cliffs. That at least should put him a Little Bit higher. It is not as satifying or as easy to pull off like it is with Magna charge But still.
Probably still the weakest Addition to swap force
Permanant Indecisiveness
You have some good opinions in this video. You also have some abysmal ones. I’m not gonna name and shame…
Windup
Magna charge
Dune bug…..
there are way more than that sadly,terrible research and testing done for this vid,i love his other vids but this one is just factually wrong most of the time with alot of misinformation.
I wouldn’t say factually wrong. This comment was meant to be sarcastic, not a criticism of the video.
Make a tier list of trap team
Is it me or did they break Prism Break's crystal drop? I remember it being able to deal ridiculous damage in giants but just... not working in Swap Force. The crystals would just disappear on enemies.
it does feel really janky. Not helped by enemies huge HP pools, and sometimes the crystals do phase through the floor. Really should have increased the hitbox size of the crystals
@@Dymastia that's what it feels like. It would explain why they get deleted before they hit anything. Oh and his little crystal stomp being absolutely garbage too
@@Dymastia actually now that I think about it, was fake difficulty mostly a Swap Force thing or was it in the others too?
@@MrSmashySmash I have no idea if enemies have more HP on higher difficulties, or if they're just like that. In Giants enemies did crazy damage but didn't have that much HP so it was kinda balanced and I never played Trap Team or Superchargers on anything higher than hard because I didn't really like them enough to replay them.
@@Dymastia understandable, have a good night
Hell yeah!
I will not take this thumpback slander
Lets go my pfp got S tier
Luckily i played this on the wii
next year for trap team just rank them within the element
Did you forget Prism Break has a Lightcore
Who doesn't have a Wow Pow, making it worse than Series 2 and 3 versions...
Series 2 or series 3 Spyro?
Now do Trap Team, Superchargers and Imaginators
I think he’s doing them at each games 10 year anniversary
I am thank you so much
Okay “Boomer”. Personally I prefer Countdown over Wind-Up. I too am a fan of Smolderdash, and I agree hold hardedly with Roller Brawl, I think she’s cute too, and I like that she deals out smooches as an attack. Food Fight is also va’d by Billy West. I look forward to seeing your Trap Team tier list.
Bumbleblast is a tanky monster
I thought Bumbleblast was the better life Skylander but I ended up sticking with Zoo Lou instead, I like his voice.
@@jaredlanglitz5651 they’re both good and have pretty similar play styles. I prefer bumbleblast because he can slow down enemies, but Zoo Lou is definitely a fun skylander
Yay
I pronounce Chop-Chop the best skylander in the game, why because three words DAMAGE DEALING TANK, right abilities and bye bye bosses!!
some tech came out for jet vac and he is easily an S tier because of it,the "corkscrew loops" tech is one of if not highest dps in swap force next to grilla
eye brawl in D pains me
hear me out, eye brawl on the laser path is not that bad, infact your body doesnt follow the eye like in giants so you can kind of stay back while you snipe and enemies aggro your eyeballs
octopus buccaneer x iron man magma thing = unbelievable combo (i dont know the names sorry)
Wash Buckler and Blast Zone?

I can't finish this video he insulted sprocket
I love the thumbnail on this video sorry😭
your logic is so inconsistent you put flashwing and star strike in high tiers because they can reflect projectiles when DOOM STONE DOES THE SAME THING. HOW IS DOOM STONE WORSE THAN HOOT LOOP BRO HE SUCKS
reflecting projectiles is a nice boon, if they didn't have it they'd still be top tier. also the reflection is in a circle around them and not a shield that makes you move slower and only deflects in the front.
@@Dymastia you forget that doom's top half is a.. top half that can be swapped with every other bottom half leading to cool and unique combos. honestly you should have ranked the tops and bottoms separately because they're essentially 2 different characters and swapping is their main gimmick like pair up doom with something like blade, charge, jet, or ranger, and the possibilities just multiply like crazy
@@SkinnyMood27 pairing Doom with any other bottom half that's good wouldn't really affect his placement. also another reason the halves aren't ranked separately is because the bottom half is basically just movement speed and one attack.
@@Dymastia that might be true about most bottom halves, but some are obviously better than others. some favor attacks rather than movement, and vice versa. being able to give a top half exactly what it needs is a good feature and honestly doom is not even that bad. like you have good damage if you wait even just a little bit to charge the column up. or don’t even charge it at all. and blocking all damage and reflecting projectiles is pretty cool on a top half that you can pair with anything. shield path definitely still sucks so you should go for column clubber path at all costs. call me biased, but you’re sleeping on peak. characters like fire kraken or trap shadow are so incredibly weak compared to doom stone
i agree,there are so many inconsistencies with this video with alot of misinformation aswell,i wish there was more time done with research and testing more than anything else
