So ever since our Big-Baddy-Boss-Daddy Gargos showed up I been thinking… (something I seldom do)
STORYWISE, How do all the characters stack up against each other, power scale wise?
Who’s the strongest? The most powerful?
Who’s the weakest? The least likely to come out alive in a fight?
Who’s the king of swing? The mid-cards in the School-yards? The head honchos wearing the ponchos? The Low-Ballers that Got-No-Dollars? the Mac-Daddies of Boom-Ba-Laddies? (After reading what I just typed I’m 90% sure I may be a very annoying person…)
If there’s already a forum post about this subject, my apologies! You can banish me to the stasis tubes of ARIA’s Love-Nasium!
Either way show me how you think the KI characters stack up in a tier list /:power ranking against each other based on Lore from the story modes, Novellas, and cutscenes!
A couple things to follow though (my apologies for the rules)…
-
Let’s keep it to the KI 2013 game alone. There’s been so much retconning from the old classic games, that we can open up a whole new can of Shadow-Worms bringing KI1 and KI2 into the mix.
-
These lists should be based on story/lore alone. Not actual gameplay, online tiers.
-
If in your list you have any characters in spots you find interesting or different from what other people would think, tell us why :D. It’s always interesting to see people’s ideas/views on this stuff.
-
Probably don’t include Guest characters (unless you really want to…)
Anyway here’s my power ranking list. From most powerful to least powerful:
-
Gargos (duh…)
-
Tusk (Hinted at being a Demi-God)
-
Jago (I base this on his true potential)
-
Kim Wu (All that chosen-one stuff gets me thinking she’s way more powerful then we know)
-
Shadow Jago
-
ARIA (*** I would actually put her closer to the bottom but… In all honesty ARIA is a little weird. I don’t think physically she’s that powerful. But her ability to control multiple bodies and manipulate situations in the background make her extremely dangerous)
-
Aganos
-
Kan Ra
-
Glacius
-
Cinder (not sure about this one)
-
Thunder
-
TJ Combo
-
Hisako (Not sure because her power seems to be based on how many souls she’s devoured…)
-
Omen
-
Spinal
-
Maya (I’m basing this on her daggers being ancient weapons of power so this could be wrong)
-
Mira
-
Orchid
-
Saberwulf (another one I’m unsure about)
-
Fulgore (This one I’m very unsure about. His mass production models are full of such, but the Eagle/Fulford model is tougher…)
-
Riptor (Same as Fulgore)
-
Sadira (everytime she appears in the lore, she gets beat)
…
… Street level punks
… Rodents
…
100 Ryat Adam’s Hopes and Dreams (Post ARIA going “let’s kill everyone!” Loco)
On a separate note I truly hope that the final Season 3 character is Ryat Adam’s Hopes and Dreams XD. All of his moves can be based around crying in the corner. Once he gets his instinct meter he curls into the fetal position and cries some more… Now that’s a Fighting Game character archetype that no one’s used before!
Anyway show me what you guys think would be a more accurate Power ranking for the characters of KI! And again if there is already a post about this, I apologize.
