Can't believe we live in the timeline where they come back years later to undo the Jago nerfs and give us our rightful place on the tier list! Justice will be done!!
As a longtime Rash player, seeing one of my favorite characters to play as (and just in general of all media since I love Battletoads) be on the top of your tier list warms my heart so much. Thank you so much for all of your wonderful videos, and please keep up the outstanding fighting game content, I will be supporting you all the way! :)
This is a very well timed tier list, imo. I was just wondering where the KI Meta was at. Very surprised by Thunder's placement (My Main). Thought he was Top 3/1 after Twitch Rivals, lol. Love the channel!
Finally! Cinder officially bottom tier. I can still hear their screams, way off in the distance, "cinders broken, cant punish him, burnout mechanic is op etc ." Those were the days
I never knew the KI tier list and didn't know Jago was so low on the lit. It make sense why some matchups felt so difficult when I played against players from B and up. I'm really excited for the next update hopefully it can bring characters closer to the middle.
It's bucket list goal of mine to take my Arbiter to Evo. The bastardization that 343 has done to one of the most beloved game series of all time is criminal. Killer Instinct reminded me just how badass Arbiter is.
I stopped playing KI a while ago because the balance got out of whack and all the characters I liked playing were a lot less viable than the Rash meta. Gonna pick it up again once the balance changes go live.
I wondered, myself but never got a straight answer so I watched him in a tournament and his gameplay explained everything. He was here, he was there, he ate projectiles and mixed everyone up.
Rash is an ace character. And what does your Smash fetish got to do with anything? KI is a one on one fighting game. Smash is a party brawler. Go eff your eff.
I'm about to pick this game up, living it up, gonna play cinder, its gonna be awful. My friends are interested in Omen and Aganos. I am entering my Rocky Balboa Arc.
As a Riptor player who isn't going anywhere, I'd say it's 6-4 against Rash. She just has a lot of tools to shut down his bullshit. Especially if you play a Rash who isn't used to it and really likes to be in the air.
In retrospect, just like Jago, Thunder dp isn't the end all be all. I think his invincible dp. (meterless) should have stayed. At this point the natural evolution for Thunder is a invincible anti air command grab. An air to air command grab. Maybe a half screen-screen clearing unblocakable. 😅
Even as a known Thunder downplayer it kinda hurts my brain seeing him that low. Really gotta separate the character from Hologram lol. I think I can live with top tier Holo and mid tier Thunder.
But that's the thing though isn't it? Hologram is just a really good player overall and he makes that character work. Same with Devil and TJ Combo. They remind me of Xian using Gen in SF4.
I say tier lists are garbage as it becomes obvious when it gets to KI. All characters are ace when you know how to combo with each. The other problem is that this has become a trend with FGC clowns proposing their ideas and those been seen as superior. People believe this and never use low tier character unless someone proves them all wrong.
I just starts KI with my son. He only plays glacius as its the week player. This almost made me stop to play. Very frustrating when you don't know how the game works and you can't really approach nor being mid range the thing without being destroyed. Only managed to win 3/20 games. Horrible.
Wulf upplayers have officially gotten worse than eyedol and riptor downplayers. For the record, alot of him being bottom 5 came from early s3 due to some of his stuff just not working, his damage was gimped and he got punished for breaking combos. He's probably not bottom 5 but I'd still put him in B. Putting him above the likes of thunder is pushing it. Speaking of thunder, the character is still very powerful but characters like thunder take a specific mindset. Playing even a hybrid grappler without being use to a grappler mindset is not easy.
I want to play aganos, but I don't know how to play him very well- any pointers? One of my friends is a riptor player which is a challenge but I want to play him
@@NickyIovene Im guessing due to fast movement and quick heavies making the armor less relevant. Any recommendations on how to play neutral in this matchup? Maybe use L payload more?
Tier lists are garbage and prompt false ideas to tier list video addicts that barely play video games. And those who do and need tier lists, need other people what characters to use and how to play, well, those people suck too.

Can't wait for the KI Anniversary Edition tierlist!

Buff rash give him a reversal
@@slingshotdon Trust me, Shadow Big Bad Boot is definitely enough...
@@gregoryo4417 it's sarcasm bro
@@slingshotdon I know that, I was just adding on and acting serious, lmao.

been this way since my tier list last year!
@@NickyIovene oh yeah, I forgot about that 😅
We could almost hear some Kilgore love aroun' he'.

we RAAM and Spinal players are on extreme copium rn
i feel bad for Jagos
For what is worth, I think Kim is very fun character to play. And, kinda, expected Mira be higher.

Why is Rash SSS? Im asking seriously, im a Smash player

Great video! Make one after the patch too!

Update for those interested, they got washed, I am cinder, he is me, they quit the game and went back to third strike and gear.
Yo Nicky can we get a tier list update?
he said mira is his favorite fighting character of all time then puts her in the B list☠
I feel the wulf increase is a troll haha. But it’s welcome ♥️…but I can never tell anymore!! Lol
Wolforme! 😉
Who is a really good Maya player to watch? Loved the video, Nicky.
as of right now, frodo

Isn't this game getting a patch soon? How much does that change this list? If they showed the changes, i mean.

i respect your opinion
It's Joever

riptor is aganos worst matchup!

Rash uplayers are out in the wild, unreal
crazy
Wulf Top 1
Cinder being low tier is interesting
ur s-tier in my heart’s tier list
Most glacius players in rank: cold shoulder cold shoulder cold shoulder hail hail.
Other glacius players: Hail Hail Hail Jab Check Puddle punch into shadow shatter *uses cold shoulder as anti air*
it’s all the same
New as a watcher, any sick glacius sets?
they're allll over my channel, look for skatefast, alex v or carnitas!
@@NickyIovene thanks
Wulfs just a better Rash if we're being honest 💯
that’s pretty true tbh
Yall gaslighting at this point.
Nicky come back to ki content. Come back for me
Wulfs definitely top 6 easy
true!
Aria = broke imo
bro she's out of this world 😭
Still putting Riptor in the top 10 in 2023 💀💀
YUUUUP
What is it with youtubers and soy face thumbnails?
you clicked on it
@@NickyIovene Yes, to ask the question.
@@ReformedCoomergotcha 👌
Wulf is toooo annoying.

I don't think you know what the word 'broken' means.
Nah if you say Jago ain't atleast high A tier you tweaking (from an Aria player, use to be a Jago main)
that’s incorrect sorry
