I bought Sonic Gems Collection for pretty cheap. Hoping to finally play the one major sonic game that eluded me for so long, Sonic CD. After playing Sonic CD and being horribly disappointed, I thought I might as well get some time in Sonic the Fighters. I liked it... a lot. So I wanted to see if anyone could help me compile info on techniques and combos and stuff.
Now I am just gonna copy a post I made on another message board some months back.
Tier List (still probably way off)
-As of 4/30/2007-
Top Tier:
Knuckles- (Corner Combo-er. Knuckles has good moves to push opponents into corners. Sub-par throw damage but throw is a great set up move. Good damage, good follow ups. Hyper Mode is pretty devastating since you can continue it into a normal combo easily. Useful kicks and a good dodge.)
Espio- (Long Tongue Allows him to Land Chase well and continue combos. Lots of Ways to Deal with Projectile Spamming. Powerful Hyper Mode potential. Has a beautiful approach in his Overhead Chop. Powerful throws and follow ups.)
High Tier:
Bean- (Double Air Bomb add up damage fast, Decent Hyper Mode, fast neutral punch combo, Powerful and useful throws, Powerful kicks. Melee moves are a bit slow.)
Fang- (Tons of Projectiles, nearly untouchable in hyper mode. Good Land Chases namely Quick Shot, or Super Shot closer to corners. Powerful throws and follow ups. Fast attack tend not to follow. Definitely not the god most people think he is. Has a few unlockables though.)
Mid Tier:
Tails- (Fast dodge, Deadly Throws. Has a Unblockable. Lack of Pushing moves.)
Sonic- (Great Barrier Breaker but those moves actually do weak damage if they aren't blocked. Decent Neutral Punch combos and a few good launchers, grabs are decent. All around poor damage minus jab combo, but fast)
Low Tier:
Bark- (Powerful moves. Devastating throws. Good Barrier breaking moves. Lack of Hyper Transformation in Air. Slow, very slow, lacks the ability to crouch.)
Amy- (Slow. Damage isn't too great for her speed. Throws aren't great and only give set ups in corners. Sub par projectiles. Has some good combos but are hard to perform or can be rolled out of easily except in corners.)
