Here it is, the tier list you've all been waiting for!

After much painstaking research, I have scored every taunt on a scale of 1-5, and then tallied the scores to determine who the true Taunt Tier Champions are!
(multiple taunts that share a single animation also share a single score and were only counted once)

LOL, although seriously, this seems mostly right... (hoping you took durration into account)

But Tina was the original SS in terms of taunts ):< (still my SS)


(wow, I think that's even one of the oldest videos on youtube :O )

Would love Helena to get these 2 animations to replace her current taunts.

"Is that your best?" (referencing her opera background)

I think calling the "slow' bow for Kokoro is an understatement. It's the slowest of the slow. How could it be anything but f tier.

Alright. That explains everything. Thank you, Brute. I'll take this into account before asking my next question.
I generally assigned scores based on how distinct/memorable each taunt is. Everyone remembers Kokoro's bow taunt. It's incredibly memorable for how hilariously slow it is. But it's not a multi-part taunt, it doesn't have an attack connected to it or anything like that, so it's therefore a mid-range (much like NiCO's 6AP).

5 star - Cream of the crop
4 star - Multi-parters or have unique qualities attached
3 star - Memorable
2 star - Average
1 star - Forgettable

I would consider the slowness of a taunt to rank it down, personally, regardless of how memorable it makes it, but I guess that's because I feel like if I can't quickly sneak that taunt in after ending combos to get my Arcade score up, let alone to be able to just show it off, then it's dead to me (Lisa's ora kochi kochi... man...).

I wish you could break out of taunts, lol.

disagree, I like her current rich girl pose.



No, you thought DOA is about doing thunder god fists and fancy expert holds. wrong you have time to you taunts to bring the toxicity out.
This isn't smash ultimate.

She can keep one of her three "rich pose" taunts ("don't be so careless") and get a taunt referencing her opera background ("is that your best?") and another one referencing her spiritual background ("oh dear...") as replacement, don't you think ?

Hmm... now that you said the origin of your suggestion now I agree with it. now hoping KT stops recycling costumes and work on other things like taunts.
