Fun with rankings!

I thought it'd be fun to have another community project; except this time, it'll be subjective!

Inspired by DumDumDugn's "rank the colors" thread, the concept is easy: rank all the characters from best to worst, no ties allowed. When you're done, put your username in bold and I'll add your vote to an overall average ranking.

There are also separate rankings for powers, separated by color. Feel free to vote for those too!

Ranking sheet is here.

  • Interesting. Would it be wise to just automate the rankings somehow? Like the names are pre-set and we just add a number, 1-29, for each?

    I'd rank them as follows:
                                 Max Tile Damage         Power Cost

  • I wanted to automate the rankings, but in doing my own ranking I found it way easier to move names around than it was to move numbers around.

    You should probably have a new sheet that has one column of names, and then the numbers for each person.

    Also have a column of totals, and do sorting by that column.
  • Already done. I'll make it public once there are more results.

    The top three and bottom three look fairly consistent.
  • It's a bit early (only five responses so far, plus one incomplete), but yes, it's pretty clear there's a Big 3. #4 is also pretty clear and the bottom 5 are well established too.

    More people should enter their rankings! You know you've got time, it's the holidays and there's only one event going on right now.
  • Added my list... this will likely change if I ever get enough Hood Covers to level him appropriately. And Punisher I have ranked almost completely on potential as I only have the red cover at 1.
  • If you change your ranking, you should post here when you do, else your changed ranking won't get factored into the overall.

    You may as well add a CONSENSUS column, that ranks them by their current consensus. Just copy the column from the other spreadsheet you mentioned.
  • If you change your ranking, you should post here when you do, else your changed ranking won't get factored into the overall.
    Will do.

    Can I just post mine here?

    WIP--I think I'm about done. Might change my mind later and when Hulk's max stats get released, I'll rank him properly.

  • how the hell is IW not dead last.
  • Sure, if you just post here, I'll transfer it to the sheet. That way people can discuss and/or heckle more easily.
    how the hell is IW not dead last.

    Sounds like someone else wants to do a ranking icon_e_wink.gif
  • how the hell is IW not dead last.

    Having not looked at the rankings, I'd bet people are putting BagMan below her.

    I'd put both 4*s at the end -- they're nominally better than BagMan, but the amount of ISO (and covers) needed to make them even vaguely useful is just ridiculous.
  • I dunno if IW is better than Bag-Man. IW's skills are too expensive. Bag-Man's purple is at least usable. As is his yellow in PVE. The best thing about IW is that she helps you easier suceed in events due to her requirements.
