Do you guys seriously hate playing as so many characters? That's so weird.

Also, maybe my character selection is odd. According to the correlation list, I almost always like playing characters that I statistically shouldn't.

I think it's more so that most people only play a small pool of characters. Naturally you're not gunna rate a character you don't really use very highly compared to one of your mains. Also LOL to all the "Phase-4 - 4".

Just because they rated them low doesn't mean they don't play them. I rated Marie Rose and Kasumi as 2 but I still play them all the time. I just suck really badly with them. >.>

So did some things:

Taking everyone who 'liked' a character (Gave score of 4 or 5), then took the average of that pool's decision for each of the other characters to determine the other average liked characters and disliked (score of 2 or 1) characters.

I made a picture out of this. just only the "who like who"

pub


[Edit] groups become more obvious.

Here's my list:

5) Bass, Leon, Rachel, Lisa,
4) Rig, Tina, Zack, Alpha, Mila
3) Bayman, Akira, Jacky, Ayane, Ein, Brad, Momiji, Hitomi
2) Kokoro, Kasumi, Christie, Jann Lee, Lei Fang, Gen Fu, Sarah
1) Pai, Busa, Hayate, Helena, MR, Eliot (extremely boring)

I would've put NyoTengu at the top of the list based on what I've seen from gameplay videos and I really liked Tengu's play style.

No one likes Bass :(

He's a father... and an American Hero...

He's actually one of the best dads in videogames.

If they turn him heel in 6, I'd be sooo pissed :mad:

I don't feel that much connected to the characters that the majority of my fellow Helena players likes (except for Christie). ._.

Added @GreatDarkHero . I put the neutral 3 for every "to be determined"

Updated @Force_of_Nature, @ToKyo PewPew. Glad to see that you change your mind based on your experience spent on the character rather than listening to others's point of view.

I personnaly think that every characters deserve a 5 when you take time to play with it.

I'll be honest and say that at least half of my numbers are based off of relatively inadequate experience. My 3's, 4's and 5's are reasonably accurate though.

For Grappling, there are three basic criteria which would constitute a 'grappler'. The grappler can have any number of the criteria, but must at least have one.

  • The character's neutral throw has a start-up of 4 frames
  • The character has an air throw
  • The character has ground throws

I don't recall which characters in DOA5 have a 4 frame startup.

Bass meets all three criteria: He has neutral 4 frame throw, has multiple air throws, and has ground throws.
Bayman has ground throws.
Leon has air throw and ground throws
Tina has air throw(s) and ground throws
Mila has ground throws
Lisa has air throw
Hayabusa has air throw
★★★★★ I was about to lose my shit thankyou.

If I made a video on how to do the 1-Frame knee on a Dualshock/Arcade stick for the people. The votes will go up by 3 points.

*Makes 1-Frame video*
I'm sorry but move was meant to be done on a stick, in mind. Yeah, you can do it on DS 3, with specific controls. I've seen both, you and slybass use, X=H, K=O/A=H, B=K
