Blatantly Overpowered characters

[him over there]

I think most Ubers and Dragon types are way to powerful in Pokemon. It's not that hard to beat them most of the time, but they hit really hard. Don't like the steel type that much and refuse to put one on my team. Always great fun that the steel type is the only one that resists dragon type moves, thanks a whole bunch Game Freak.

Of course Ubers are OP. By definition they're overpowered. That's why they have their own tier that you can only use them in.

Hmm, lets see, Tryndamere and Morgana. Those two should be permabanned.

As far as competitive multiplayer goes, it goes to most vehicles that blow stuff up, because the explosive weapons that counter them are hard to get your hands on. If we want to talk about cooperative multiplayer, honorable mention goes to Roland from Borderlands. With hard hitting assault rifles and ammo regen, the only way it can be easier is if you're partnered with Morty. That gives the team ammo regen, health regen, and a bird that, when power leveled, kills EVERRRYTHING.

It's a bit of a toss up between Sentinel and Wesker in MvC3. Everyone who uses those characters is an asshole.

 

[rednose1]

Baal in the Disgaea games. He is the hardest boss in the game. So hard, that the characters in game even whine about how ridiculuos his stats are, no joke.

 

[XMark]

Eddy Gordo and Christie Monteiro from the Tekken series are a button-masher's dream characters.

 

[Ekafme]

Antimage in dota 2 pubs, premade/party he's easy to shutdown but have rarely seen a side lose with him.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

I'll throw in another for Boone. I swear, his hunting rifle does more damage than the AMR.

 

[Xeldrak]

Well, my father suffers from Cluster Headache aswell, although it is the episodic type, not the chronic.

As there is a genetic component to Cluster Headache, I have a good chance to develop them myself...

 

[ChadSexington]

This isn't from a game but Aragorn in the Lord Of The Rings movies. He just charges into battle swinging wildly and comes out of the encounter without a scratch.

 

[Nyaoku]

Ezio ... He had a gun when just about everyone else had knives.
Anyone from DBZ.
The blue team on any ice map in Halo. They get free camo while the reds seem to glow.
The awp in css. (use the scout)
Kirby in anything past the GBA.
Mario ... really. Just look at what he's doing now.
Anyone raiding the undead slums past lvl 15 ... you know who you are.

I'm gonna bring in League of Legends and mention Tryndamere.
Now, before anyone gets their tighty whities bunched up lemme explain my reasoning.

I don't take issue with the fact he does a lot of damage, he IS a damage dealing character.
I don't take issue with the fact he can go completely invincible for 5 seconds without any cost (Ok maybe a little but that's just because it seems cheap, not OP)

My problem lies in the combination of said powers

For each 1% health he's missing he gains attack power.
For each 1% Fury he has he gains Crit rate.
When he uses his ultimate, he has 100% fury, and <2% hp, and CAN'T be killed for 5 seconds, within these 5 seconds he can (if used well) win a 5v1 teamfight.

That alone STILL isn't my issue, my issue is the fact that he can use this WHILE STUNNED (and it has no cost) so there's NOTHING! you can use to stop him from using it, at all.
And he can do this every minute.

In a game where matches can last well over an hour, having this ability finish recharging every minute, it all adds up to OP.


Now, the usual argument is "Just stun him till he finishes using it" which doesn't hold ground, a full 5 seconds of stun is a lot of stun, being able to soak up ALL of that while his teammates wail on you means he's already fulfilled the role of 'tank' better then most any character in the game, a character with one of the highest DPS in the game should NOT be able to tank better then most other characters as well...

Another argument is "Kill Tryndamere last" but that still doesn't hold up, a Trynd built for damage WILL be able to kill any one of your team members in a heartbeat, thats what he was designed to do, so by not attacking him you lose anyway.

I suppose Tryndamere himself probably isn't OP, none of the characters are, but he's too easy to MAKE OP...

I KNOW someone's gonna disagree, probably with "Hurr but Trynd isn't used much in tournament play" or "Hurr, only newbies can't take Trynd" but at the end of the day, he needs a little rebalancing, even a small change like "His ult doesn't give him max fury" (which he can use to heal with by the way) or "His ult can't be used while stunned" would peg this down from OP to just plain old P.

/rant I suppose.

 

[Lunar Templar]

i'm a drop and OLD SCHOOL mention first

mother
fucking
METAL
BLADE
Mega Man 2 for the younger people out there.

more current?
40k: Space Marine
Thunder
'everything is now my *****'

best tactic is seen in dealing with one of these is ether
A) hope they don't see you
B) hope you can kill then before they do
cause if they get up close, you are fucked

On the subject of brawl, I have gotten pretty good at avoiding sonics final smash and I am of the opinion that people who ban things like smash balls and characters are just whining because their strategy and skill ends as soon as they don't know exactly what's going to happen and are forced to improvise.

I was annoyed by OP final smashes so you know what I did? I got good with king Dedede and with his power and floating, I got the smash-ball every. single. time. and everyone hated me because of the annoying but ultimately useless final smash I used.

also, I saw someone mention that meta knight was OP...maybe a little but it takes a lot of skill to use his OP:ness.

Finally, Ike and Lucas are monsters but they are fairly easy to beat without their smash (IMO) so it's pretty fair.

Do vehicles count? Because frankly the Scorpion from Halo is a major offender when it comes to being overpowered, and the banshee is even worse.

Eh I wouldn't really say the Scorpion is overpowered. I took it out easy with a rocket in Reach and if you're not careful someone can literally punch it to death. The Banshee? Fuck yes, I hate getting spawn-killed by people who ride it the entire match.
