This thread is for us, as a community, to develop a tier system for the expanded battle options here in the versus forum (until a sub-forum can be created).

Similar to the comic book character tier system. This will give us a rough estimation of which characters are "peers" to their "mainstream" comic book counterparts, and will help to determine what constitutes a viable mixed genre match up for this forum.

This will be an open forum, however, please keep this constructive. We all have opinions and the right to express them, but no unwarranted character bashing, or insulting of one another, will be tolerated.

The rules are the same general rules as the comic tier system

Rules:
1. Any changes made, please try to bold them to point them out to others.
2. Alphabetize the list as needed.
3. Discussion should take place before a change, and at least 2-3 others (who are relatively "unbiased" and not huge fans of a particular character) should agree with you before an official change takes place.
4. I can't update the Master List every day. Be patient, and don't whine to me about changes that need edited in.
5. If you can't get support for a proposed change, let it drop once you've made your case.
6. Have fun and enjoy. This list obviously isn't perfect, but it will end up being one of the better indicators of power anywhere by the time it's refined and added to.

Notes:
1. This list is based off of total "power" in all its forms. Individual matchups might mean that someone in a lower tier could beat someone in a higher tier, but we're basing the list on general power levels, not individual matchups.

The problem with anime and manga characters (which I assume is what this will be mainly used for) is that once you get past DBZ, there is a huge jump, and nearly all of the stronger anime characters are outright gods (Celestial/Eternity level or higher) and would be off the chart.

Which is why we'll develop this system to distinguish which match-ups aren't allowed. This is to have a rough map of where a character stands compared to a mainstream peer (like Solid Snake and Captain America). Once we've done this ground work it will help alleviate some of the future mismatches that are bound to ensue.

Illa, you are a genius. big grin This should probably be in the comic book section though. stick out tongue


Alucard for high/mid herald

Lina Inverse for mid herald

Link for mid meta

Dante for high meta

2nd Master Chief for low meta

Samus for mid tier meta

Anubis & Jehuty for mid herald you have no idea how long I've been trying to get those two into the other tier list......

Spike Spiegel for high street

Ranma Saotome for low meta

Ryouga Hibiki for low meta

Happosai for mid/high meta

Rugal Bernstein for high meta

Gouki (Akuma for everyone else) for low herald

Ryu Hayabusa for low meta

Kelthuzad for mid herald

Don't let Arthas on the list. Seriously. He's at least skyfather. Unless it's DK Arthas, in which case, mid/high meta.

Where do we put alternate forms? Or they count under the main character? If the latter, change Rugal to low herald.

Yes, it does include video game characters.

I was wondering where we'd put Sephiroth, actually.

Aizen Sousuke for Low herald


Dark Schnieder for High herald+++ (he's about equal to above top level Dr. Strange, so where would that place him on the list?)

No one in Bleach is anywhere near Herald level. I question Alucard's Herald status as will.

Aizen and Alucard both at mid meta.

Base Darsh is mid herald, Majin Darsh is transcendent (sub - skyfather), Dragon Knight Darsh is Skyfather

I like the animation style, and I don't say this often, but she is a very cute anime character.

You'd say the same about Sentry.

You're really one of the most biased posters I have ever come across on this forum....
