The game has been out for almost two months now and I’ve decided to sit down and decided who I think are the best characters based on things like ease of use, damage to health ratio, speed, combos, assists, and HC’s. No, these aren’t all characters I use and I didn’t pick them because of…
My personal opinion:
5- Viper - Amazing damage, great mixup, builds an assload of meter, great specials, one of 2 overhead assists, Viper is great, albeit one of the more difficult characters to play
4- Taskmaster - Good chip, good zoning, great normals, good assists, OTG super for good damage, builds meter, has a fancy new loop, has great armor breaking normals. Taskmaster is just beastly all around
3- Wesker. Great damage, 1 frame command grab, antiair pistol, good mixup, good damage off anything, OTG assist, low assist, has half of the tools for DHC trick (IE, the counter super
2 - Storm - Hailstorm is amazing, great for utilizing DHC trick, great damage, JCable normals, 8way airdash, good pressure, good zoning, good cross up shenanigans on wake up with her off ground dash. Her runaway is STILL absurdly good. Paired with Morrigan or Amaterasu’s meter building assists, she can build tons of meter quickly while keeping away with whirlwind, airdash, fly, slow fall, and lightning attack
1 - Phoenix - Dark Phoenix getting one hit on a team with full health turns the rest of the match into a crap shoot. ‘Nuff said
I agree, and on second thought Taskmaster would probably be 5th on my list. I know Viper is a great character, but it feels like you have to work mad hard with her to get some work done. The only reason I didn’t give the number one spot to DPho is because she can be snapped in and killed. Most Phoenixes can’t handle this and will just try to back away and raw tag out, which just leaves the next character vulnerable.
