  • Hey guys! I'm back with another video! I know I said that I would have this out by Wednesday at the latest, but I ended up drowning in school work, so I finally managed to get this out today. Thank you all for your patience.
    Today, I'm looking at characters in video games that were unknowingly made extremely powerful, to the point where it makes you wonder how the developers didn't notice the first time around. We're going on a power trip, boys. Enjoy!

    For a long time, Pichu is has not been considered the worst character in melee. Kirby and Bowser are far worse, most of kirby's throws can be escaped from merely be wiggling the control stick (which seems more unintentionally broken).

    • @ArbitraryOutcome
      @ArbitraryOutcome Месяц назад +71

      Yeah, I think Pichu still at least had some of Pikachu's strengths going on due to being a clone. Kirby was just straight up non-functional half the time (a stark contrast to Smash 64, the only game where Kirby was not just "good" but straight up top 3) and Bowser's characteristics in his laggy movement and attacks combined with his size work entirely against him. It's funny because he's at least been "okay" after his Smash 4 rework, meanwhile fellow heavy character Ganondorf was actually okay in Melee only to infamously end up bottom 3 (bottom 1 in Brawl and Ultimate) in every subsequent installment.

    One that i'm VERY surprised didn't make it on this list is Salvador/Gunzerker (Borderlands 2).
    Easily the best character in the game for various jank reasons, but partly due to a broken interaction with his core ability, Gunzerking.
    While gunzerking, you're able to dual-wield guns, however special weapon effects are shared, or carried over between both weapons. A popular example is using the Lady Fist which has a hidden +800% critical damage multiplier and being able to put that on any weapon in the game.
    In the past it also used to be way more powerful, as you were able to carry damage stats from your right hand weapon to certain left hand weapons that had unique projectiles (again, a popular example being a high damage rocket launcher main hand and then the Pimpernel, a sniper that has it's bullets split into 5 upon hitting something, in the off hand to gain the damage stats of the rocket launcher).
    Honourable mentions to Zer0's B0re which lets you effectively one shot some bosses as it makes your weapons pierce and increases their damage multiplicatively, and Maya's Cloud Kill which will instantly melt anything below the highest difficulty levels.

    • @empdisaster10
      @empdisaster10 Месяц назад +7

      Maya's cloud kill also doesnt scale based on your weapon but instead your level making it so you can use a slag weapon with high effect chance like the slagga and just rely solely on cloudkill since theres barely, if any enemies with corrosive resistance/immunity and the few things that do you can just switch to a different weapon for

    • @GeneralSouthParkFan
      @GeneralSouthParkFan Месяц назад +4

      Gunzerking becomes even more broken under the realization that it breaks the few balancing factors Salvador does has, like how Money Shot's bonus relies on your magazine size (which completely breaks for any gun on your left hand, which allows for builds like Deputy Salvador/Pimphab Salvador to exist). Or how some unlisted projectiles like the Pimpernel or Flakker just take on the damage properties of your currently held gun (a fact for the former that would be conventionally useless instead proves busted because Sal can hold a high power launcher & Pimpernel simultaneously). I could probably go on for an eternity as to how Salvador is probably a prime example of being walking bug abuse, but that's kinda already obvious to plenty of folk as is.
      In the Borderlands franchise, I'd probably say that Sal ranks 3 in terms of having the most busted theoretical damage formula. Amara & Zane likely tie due to Amara's access to double dipping, & Zane being similar with Boresplosion existing. If we're talking purely minimum effort maximum results, nothing possibly beats out Boresplosion Zane though. Complex Root, Splash Radius Passive on a Hustler CoM, & Eraser will let you deal ungodly damage without having to care about aiming. Imagine having the bullshit damage of B0re, alongside Gaige/Nisha's playstyle of blindly spraying enemies, & you have the most ungodly build that has ever been conceived in the franchise (only balanced by the specific class mod being a nightmare to farm). The Mind Sweeper + Pull The Holy Pin combo on Moze can also be said to be functionally similar to Boresplosion, but it lacks the same consistency & Moze is outright blocked out of Complex Root abuse due to no built-in ability to negate self-damage like Zane has with Duct Tape Mod. Deputy Salvador/Pimphabbing at a bare minimum still requires aiming at stuff to achieve its broken amount of damage, but Boresplosion does not, which is weird as hell to say because Zane as a whole is otherwise far more involved to play than Salvador (Unless you try to replicate Salvador's shenanigans with Clone like using the Grease Trap for some busted fire explosions, or effectively infinite ammo through his ammo regen anointment on the top of my head).

      @@GeneralSouthParkFan I wouldn't exactly say conventionally useless. Gun swapping is by far the most broken on sal, but shooting a flakker then swapping to ahab will still delete most bosses in the game on any character. Also, moze is, as far as damage formulas go, the most broken char in 3 imo, just by virtue of almost every damage modifier you can think of double dipping on short fuse, and the ability to force it to activate if you know how to count your shots. For general use, though, Complex Root is the most egregious example, yes.

      @GeneralSouthParkFan 7 дней назад

      @@bigchungus6827 When I said conventionally useless I referred to the Pimpernel in specific, as it's impossible to really swap to a Rocket Launcher to abuse its projectiles taking on the properties of a launcher like the Durp or World Burn. Also yeah in general, Moze is the easiest character to break in BL3 thanks to Short Fuse abuse especially with investments to Splash for really nice double dipping (Ties that Bind Amara has access to potentially Quadruple Dipping with Ties That Bind/Indiscriminate/Remnant, which can be especially powerful when you fully invest in elemental boosts and Splash, but TTB completely lacks the ability to handle single target as does a standard Blue Tree Moze build) She's also the only one to my knowledge with a limitless damage ceiling as the Mind Sweeper CoM can constantly create microgrenades provided you proc Pull The Holy Pin until the enemy just dies. Eraser on the other hand can only create a new projectile as many times as until the game realizes they're Eraser projecties, stopping the chaining entirely. Boresplosion nonetheless has a degree of high damage consistency that the Mind Sweeper lacks, which is insane given that this is Moze we're talking about, the character I just vented about having a really damn good DPS floor. Boresplosion is just a uniquely busted build for Zane all around, & using the Complex Root alongside makes it more braindead than any other build in the game.

      @bigchungus6827 5 дней назад

      @@GeneralSouthParkFan While I generally agree, apart from not liking Complex Root abuse due to extreme retinal damage, in my personal experience, Moze is the most consistent in one shotting bosses, and that's mainly due to Short Fuse, as I said. Obviously, outside of that there's a ton of other extremely powerful setups (I think I've one shot everything in the game with white elephant amara, even after that setup has been heavily nerfed), and even some weapons like the charge up rocket launcher (Kickcharger? I can't remember the name) that can potentially do enough damage to one shot most enemies in the game without passive trees. And of course melee damage conversion with Fish Slap (Combined with Guardian Angel for even easier complete annihilation of bosses), Face Puncher... that's also comically busted. Tl;dr, whoever was balancing BL3 was asleep on the job.

      It'd be nice if he could actually explain some of these choices. I don't play fighting games, so I'm still lost on how Pichu was "unintentionally broken" in Smash Ultimate. I figured the first character he'd mention would be Ice Climbers, as they're ACTUALLY unintentionally broken in Melee.

    Neat Video!
    Some things i would correct through - While Melee Pichu's self-damage doesn't help, it's actually just a minor weakness for the character - so much so that Pichu does fine in Ultimate despite having the same mechanic. The self-damage just isn't that much, and most of his strongest moves in melee (most notably Neutral Air) don't inflict self-damage.
    The bigger issues imo (which were buffed in Ultimate) were bad range on his attacks (a weakness shared by Pikachu) and lackluster damage output and kill options (Which pikachu has with Up Smash for high% and Up Air for low%), as well as an absolutely atrocious tech-roll.
    I'm not an Ultimate player, but IIRC Pichu had a very strong combo game and Forward-Tilt as a solid kill option before the nerfs which took away these weaknesses.

    One of my favorite examples of this trope is Magolor in Kirby Star Allies. He’s got an insanely diverse arsenal of attacks, including a screen-sized sword that can _shred_ bosses’ health bars. And if that wasn’t enough, he has a fully invincible guard (most characters take chip damage when guarding) and a teleport that can be stretched out long enough to just ignore certain bosses’ attacks. The Three Mage Sisters are almost as busted as Magolor, but they have to be unlocked by getting the good ending in the DLC campaign. Magolor is unlocked by simply playing through the main story

    @fatyoshi696 Месяц назад

    Launch baihe in tfh is a contender for one of, if not the most ludicrously overpowered fighting game characters ever conceived, which is wild considering she came out just a few months ago. She's intended as a high mobility zoner, with various projectiles that cost magic to use which you restock using her armor stance and either tanking a hit with it or playing the reload timing minigame it has, but that's about as far as what was intended goes, because they gave her a few unfathomably busted mechanics that made her basically impossible to deal with.
    First off, there's the armor stance. The armor was active frame 1 and cancellable into from almost anything including specials, which is already pretty strong, but they also made it cancellable into dashes, jumps, and most importantly back into specials, which means that you could loop special -> armor stance -> special for infinite blockstrings, and whenever you wanted you could just cancel the armor stance into an instant airdash for a left-right mixup at absolutely any time.
    There's also another major oversight with the armor stance: remember how projectiles cost magic to use? Well if you cancelled into them from armor stance, no they didn't. If instead of just throwing the projectile you did armor stance then immediately cancelled into the projectile, you could ignore the magic cost for basically no downside, making baihe's zoning infinitely stronger than it was ever meant to be.
    Plus, baihe's projectiles also had another unique property, which is that they didn't increase the hitstun scaling, giving her completely effortless infinites off of almost everything so if you got hit just once by her, which is easy since she has really strong mixups, the round was probably already over.
    The one move that propels baihe from your usual overtuned top tier into worthy of being considered the number 1 most busted fighting game character in existence though is siege cannon, a super strong, super fast projectile that's crazy plus on block and full combos from anywhere on screen at the cost of your whole magic meter, but you guessed it, with the armor stance trick you could skip the meter cost. It's hard to put into words how unfathomably busted this is, at any point during a blockstring baihe could just siege cannon then go for any mixup she could imagine with no cost and no risk, if you got hit you got infinited to death and if you blocked it she could just do it again and you'd eventually fail to block and have to eat the infinite. You weren't safe at long range either, her absurd zoning made siege cannon especially scary since you're already trying to fight through the projectiles to get to her, and if you ever failed to block a siege cannon, regardless of the distance, she could get an infinite off of it and just win. If you ever got hit by siege cannon, you lost on the spot. If you blocked it close range, you also lost on the spot. Siege cannon has no counterplay other than praying they don't use it when you're unable to dodge it, it might be the single most busted move in any fighting game ever.
    And as if all of that somehow wasn't enough, baihe also had one more instant win card in her pocket: if you tiger knee'd any of her specials (at the end of the special move motion, do an upwards input as you press the attack button) she would become fully invincible for the move's whole duration... for some reason. This lets you use any special move on wakeup freely, and while you can't do the armor stance trick with it you can do wakeup tiger knee special -> armor stance -> siege cannon to instantly win the game if your opponent is near you and blocks it or gets hit, as well as stay invincible for literally the entire match if you can keep inputting the tiger knee specials frame perfectly.
    So basically yeah launch baihe was one of the stupidest characters ever conceived and it's what you get when you lay off the whole dev team partway through QA, I didn't even mention some of the other busted stuff she had like the best anti air in the game by far, the projectile reflector kick that can reflet your own projectiles and launch them crazy fast, the upwards moving special that can be used infinitely in the air so you can air stall forever with it, and the fullscreen level 1 super that also crashed the game if you tried to through it but this should get the point across

    There was another Bond game that came out in 2002 called Nightfire that also had a multiplayer mode... Oddjob was also one of the playable characters. They fixed his height... but they also gave him a unique throwable weapon, his hat, that was an instant kill. It wasn't even a one-time weapon, you just had to pick it up again and continue using it.
    For context, some shotguns weren't even an instant kill in Nightfire's multiplayer, in fact the only two weapons in the game that were an INSTANT kill was The Golden Gun, which was locked behind a game mode, or Oddjob's hat.

The reason he drops off late game, especially in the base game, is because his energy resistance is a 5 and his defense is that of girded leather armor otherwise, and late game when you're dealing with constant synths and lasers this means he is very very weak and gets chewed to death. The rest is here though so that's good.

    -Marth in Melee can grab a character across the entire screen due to a glitch.
    -Gil in Street Fighter 3 is absurdly OP, able to use 3 supers rather than just one and all of them being broken, especially the 2nd and third ones. 2nd special is "seraphic wing" that is a full screen unlockable instakill and the 3rd special is "holy resurrection" which activates automatically when killed and FULLY REVIVES HIM WITH FULL HP.
    -Goro and that horse guy in the original Mortal Kombat trilogy.
    -Reverse HP+Surpassing Power+Ultima Blade in Bravely Default 2 being so OP that it can OKO every enemy in the game INCLUDING THE SUPERBOSS.
    -The freelancer and beastmaster classes in BD2 also being incredibly OP with their class passives. Super easy to get maxed stats.
    -Boiling Blood + Surpassing Power + Warrior Divine Art at 1 HP in Octopath 1 can do 99,999 damage guaranteed.
    -Sorcerer Therion or Teresa + multiple fire or wind boosting weapons + compression DA + encore + surpassing power + Tier 3 fire/wind spell = TOTAL DEATH. (Octopath 1)
    -Hikari in general in Octopath 2. Absolutely busted character.
    -Any version of Donald in MUGEN, but especially Golden Donald, Dark Donald, and Chaos Donald.
    -Any "cheapie" in MUGEN like A-Bomb, 2nd Death Star, Primeus/Gay Bahamut, Omega Tom Hanks, 2nd Death Star, and Crazy Catastrophe.
    -Rex in Xenoblade 3 Future Redeemed. He does so much damage that he eats ALL the aggro and the tanks become useless because they can't gain more aggro than Rex.
    -Mythra in Xenoblade 2. "Double spinning edge double spinning edge double spinning edge double..."
    -The Signifier class in Xenoblade 3.
    -Some heroes in Xenoblade 3 like Asherah and Grey.
    -The DLC demons in SMT4 and their skills.
    -White Rider in SMT4 Apocolypse pre-patch could mutate one of his skills to light pierce if you got lucky, allowing his special move "Divine Judgement" to OKO every enemy in the game including bosses. This was patched in an update.

    The thing about Oddjob is, in one of the next 007 games, called "Nightfire", its multiplayer mode also had Oddjob as a playable character. In that game, he had a special weapon which only he can use. Once per stock (if I remember right), he could throw his hat which just instantly kills any enemy it touches. I think it also had slight homing capabilities.
    I can't recall if he was also smaller in that game.
    So he was somewhat broken in 2 games, not just one.
