....and other calibrations. I'll buy it nonetheless because it's FFyou could make the exact same case for the SSB games.
What r u talking about ExDeath is not brokenTidus and ExDeath are broken.
I don't have the game, but from what I understand and what I've seen, ExDeath can basically win by blocking the whole time and doesn't really have to do anything. From an offensive standpoint, he's one of the worst characters in the game, but he is unrivaled in defensive power and a majority of characters have a hard time successfully approaching him. The only bad matchups he appears to have are Gabranth (since ExDeath has nothing to stop him from going into EX mode) and maybe Cloud (who, from what I understand, needs to force ExDeath to approach). A majority of the cast has attacks that can't be countered, but most of these are slow. There are even 4 characters who don't have any attacks that can't be countered at all.What r u talking about ExDeath is not broken
Defense isn't a huge factor in the game, it only decreases the amount of Brave you get in an attackI don't have the game, but from what I understand and what I've seen, ExDeath can basically win by blocking the whole time and doesn't really have to do anything.

Broken may be a stretch, but it's not that big of one. He's about as good as Sagat in SFIV or Sheik in Melee.
His attacks are adequately predictable and his only long range r his blitzballs which follow you, its very annoyingWell what about Tidus,Hes the best character in the game.
everybody doesTidus has many links from brave to HP attack combos.
He is god on Aitr battles,in which Dissdia is more towards.
1 dodge, using HP attacks in an Aitr battle takes more time than a brave attack so it is very easy to predict what your opponent is going to do when their right in your faceHis attacks are hard to punish in the Air if you know what you are doing.
EX bursts takes care of anybody periodEX mode takes care of most mages.
Sure,everybody has Brave chaims to HP,But Tidus has the lowest risk of pulling it off.everybody does

2 after any aerial attack, especially melee attacks have a cooldown period in the air leaving him open for a counter(take a look at cecil's aerial HP attack as an example, no not the one where he throws the beam of light at you)
EX bursts takes care of anybody period
I can't believe they put ExDeath on top at Gamefaqs I'd expect them to put characters with unblockable moves on top because well, they're unblockable *looks at firion and butz*Sure,everybody has Brave chaims to HP,But Tidus has the lowest risk of pulling it off.
He could use a brave attack instead.Anyone can guard>counter,Tidus just does it without as much risk as say,Seperioth,or most others.
EX modes are different for every character."Looks at Gabranth".

The only thing I disagree with on this is ExDeath's placement. He's definitely High Tier material. Gabranth might also be mid-tier, but a majority of the cast beats him solidly so I'm not sure. Also, I don't think it's necessary to have a God Tier yet.Alrighty, this is my very first tier list due to some frame data, online battles, and several quirks each character had. This is nowhere near complete and yeah...just here it is.
Non-Equips Tier List v.01
God Tier:
- Jecht
High Tier:
- Bartz Klauser
- Terra Branford
- Kuja
- Zidane Tribal

Low-Mid Tier:
- Shantotto
- Sephiroth
- Gabranth
- Cecil Harvey (Dark Knight)
- Cloud of Darkness
- Cecil Harvey (Paladin)
- Onion Knight
- Golbez
- Ultimecia
Low Tier:
- Emperor Mateus Palamecia
Comments about this Tier: ExDeath of Text
- Gabranth usually would make people think he places higher, given how great his EX mode is and just how he has everything he needs to shut every character in the game down. The problem is...without equips, it's a lot of work to get there and even then...you only stay in as long as everybody else. This alone makes Gabranth mains having to work twice as hard to kill foes as say, any of the mid-class characters.
- ExDeath is up there because of him being the ultimate wall against all offensive classes. He's got a steep learning curve, but unlike Palamecia or such...he has what it takes to shutdown the cast. All his frame rates are nice, except mobility. Oh, and his EX mode is just stupid. >.> I will say though, some of his counterpick matches hurt him a lot (coughShantottoZidanecough)
- Jecht wins for now because of him being capable of blocking ANYTHING while on the offense (Jecht Block), his stupid priority in his attacks, guard breaking with BRAVE attacks (you don't even have to charge that long, or be in EX mode), heavy damage dealer into HP and yeah...just has everything you could possibly want in a character. I do hope it changes for now, and it sort of is. I'll have an analysis up later....
- Shantotto is NOT, and I repeat...NOT as good as people think. With no equips on, she's gonna suffer like crazy due to having a hard time landing her spells and if she whiffs or misses entirely; say goodbye! Being unable to abuse brave boosting equips makes her spells nothing more than a nuisance. The only viable way to boost the brave is hoping you land either Bio or Stop...and good luck with that. I will say though, Hold is a nice beat breaker.
Shantotto also hates melee fighters, so Squall and Jecht tear her apart. Not to mention punishing oriented foes like Sephiroth. Surprisingly enough, she seems to be the counterpick for ExDeath.
- Tidus has a lot of things going for him, and...against him too. For one, his hitboxes usually come after a dodge...so that gives him some trouble punishing properly. Most of his move's dodge frames are a tad bit too long, but I suppose they're compensated as they all pretty much link to HP extensions. To play him properly, you really gotta read the foe and anticipate when to dodge. When you get good enough, blocking for Tidus is his dodges. He literally can and will dodge everything that comes at him.
- Emperor is going to be one of the hardest characters to win with. He doesn't have any pressure relief other than dodging, as his melee brave attack sucks balls. Counterpicking is his way of winning and he absolutely HATES Final Destination type stages. His only two HP attacks may sound good in theory, but are really bad. Flare can be deflected by the entire cast, and Meteorite takes too long to execute (but is a sure hit if you get it.) Emperor mains have to work the hardest out of the whole cast in order to gain brave and to deplete HP.
- Onion Knight's hitstun is absurdly long, just like Golbez. The two of them eat combos that usually don't work on others.
I'm doing an Equips On tournament, which is even harder....but I do know the trinity of gods already.
In this order:
- Gabranth
- Jecht
- Bartz
Alrighty! Discuss.
he is extremely slow and his moves are predictableHow is Golbez that low on that list? He's got some amazing combos at close range and long range.
Garland has range attacks you'd never expect him to have, making up for his speed, plus he could just glide aroundHe's not slow at all. Garland's the slow and predictable one, Golbez has good speed and plenty of options.
WOW, the FFIX Battle 1 remix sounds absolutely incredible.Argh. I was kind of hoping nobody would start discussing tactics and crap in this thread before it is even released in America. It pretty much destroyed the thread...
Putting aside God-forsaken tier lists...
It is just around the corner, folks. If you havent already, you should check out the soundtrack on Youtube. Some very beautiful remixes, and it also includes some originals, very GOOD ones at that.
Kuja is such an annoying character in Dissidia he gets in the way and doesn't go away no matter how many times you try to hit him,As for tier lists, I really don't see the need. Most of the characters are pretty good. Kuja stands out as one the tougher ones due to him being able to maneuver easily and attack at the same time,.
Frionel? You mean Furion or is that the Emperor's name?Once everybody at my school realized how broken Jecht was, they All started using him...
I stick to Frionel and Kuja
yeah Furion/Frionel same nameFrionel? You mean Furion or is that the Emperor's name?
Haha and yeah, it's competitive Brawl all over again.
Oh right. The Japanese names. For those who don't know:
Frionel = Furion
Butz (I lol'd) = Bartz
Tina = Terra
There are a few others.
Terra has a playstyle that fits me. She is like a Zelda ripoff and I love it. Bartz also has a fun playstyle.
