    The Official Dead or Alive 5 Tier List with Discussion thread

    Remember that just because a character is in the lowest tier, it doesn't mean they are easy to deal with. Bass for example just suffers from a lot of slightly unfavorable matchups. None of which are unwinnable by him.

    When we do meet up we meet up at my place in Columbia. In fact, VirtuaKazama and Lithy are here right now.playing. Find it a bit more comfortable to play over paying at Xanadu and fighting over space. Are you going to be attending ECT5 in NJ?

    The Official Dead or Alive 5 Tier List with Discussion thread

    I would only disagree with those two, the others I agree or don't know enough about the matchup to comment on. I feel Bass v Tina is straight even. Bass might be a bit slower but Tina provides him the opportunity to get in attacks with her slightly faster speed. Bass will also do just as much...

    Throw trades

    The problem with doing an "auto throw-break" is that one character will be left at disadvantage.

    Throw trades

    What about rewarding to the throw that does more damage?, which then of course would lend the question "if throws did equal damage then how would they trade?".

    Well the matchup chart is unfinished, so as it stated. the tier list is fluctuating. However, I don't see her moving much from her current position if you were to compare her with tournament results.

    New DOA5 version announced (Momiji!!!)

    Yeah. It's called "Forest". Literally. I've always felt that character balance tends to work out best if you treat a character as the only selectable character against all other AI controlled characters. A single-player game if you will... ... ...like DOA3. For example, Ninja Gaiden since...

    New DOA5 version announced (Momiji!!!)

    Separate it from DOA5 screenshots. Same reason they changed the announcer for Super SFIV. Woo! Reincarnate is listed! Yeah DOA3 BGM!

    Dead or Alive 5 Starter Guide

    Essentially no. However, it may take additional frames to leave "backstep" motion and go into guard so you run the risk of being counter hit. This isn't the case for holding :h2: and auto-guarding a low attack.

    New DOA5 version announced (Momiji!!!)

    Updated the front page. Comments on the video: Air PB? Momiji looks like a slow character but has a lot of Kasumi's animations. I do enjoy the new Dangerzone on the new stage.

    DoA++ Time Attack Burst... How to play in this mode?

    Nah you hold all there until the match starts I would assume. Select character, hold all three buttons or start or both, READY appears, release buttons.

    DoA++ Time Attack Burst... How to play in this mode?

    Though I never tried it in DOA++, in DOA1/DOA1U if you selected your character and held down all the buttons then the match would begin with no safe zone. DOA++ is 3 buttons, I imagine it's the same deal. ... I know too much about DOA :(.

    Level of competition online is at an all times series low.

    I don't think it's as low as DOA1U's. ... I miss DOA1U :(

    Official NorCal Regionals thread. (The most critical stand for DOA on the west coast ever! Sticky! )

    Remember that in this community we didn't get such numbers until recently. Previously we would only muster 4 to 8. But we stuck with it.
