This is a topic to rate the contest strength of potential newcomers in the current contest environment.

I will pick the characters to rate and discuss for each day from user nominations - whoever the 3 most nominated characters are at that time. If there are more than 3 I will pick randomly. You can nominate any number of characters at any time, but you cannot nominate the same character twice.

All characters who were present in the 2018 Character Battle will NOT be eligible. Otherwise you can nominate any character that has appeared in video games; even comic book characters. This will exclude real-life athletes who have only appeared in long running sports series, however I will accept those who have their own games such as Shaq. I will accept nominations for iconic gaming duos too, if there is a compelling reason for both characters to be linked (either co-starring in a game ala Banjo & Kazooie, or always appearing together like Callie & Marie from Splatoon).

Each day will have a separate topic, and nominations will carry over. As far as actually rating the character's contest strength; I ask that users rank a characters potential strength with one of the following qualifiers - LAW Fodder, Low Fodder, Mid Fodder, High Fodder, Fodder Line, Low Midcarder, Midcarder, High Midcarder, Near Elite, Elite, LAW Tier (capable of beating Link). I will average all the ratings given to a character to come up with their final ranking. I have included a highlighted entrant from Character Battle X on each tier of the strength rankings below, to provide a baseline for each.

Note that LAW Fodder is meant to be a tier reserved for the weakest possible characters to put into a contest. A character will only be placed there if at least 3/4ths of the voters for that day agree on the LAW Fodder rating, and no ratings above Low Fodder are given. If either of those conditions are not met, the character will not be eligible for the LAW Fodder tier.

If you feel that a character has been over or under-ranked, or if a new development has come up that would affect their contest strength, you may nominate them for a re-ranking. You may nominate one character per day for this, and 3 votes are needed to get them on the slate. One character with 3 votes will come up for re-ranking today.

Low Fodder for Seadra and Arc. Seadra is the definition of irrelevant late game water mon, but it's an ok Gen 1 pokemon in terms of design and usability. Arc is yet another FF main party member stuck in a remake.

I will give Sandshrew Mid Fodder despite not being in Red. It's cute and got a particularly large amount of focus in an early Gen 1 anime episode The Path to the Pokemon League.

LAW Fodder for Eric Sparrow. Anyone who remembers this guy probably doesn't like him.

Low Fodder for Raven and Karol. Raven seems to be well-liked, but he won't get any points off of design, and might be disliked by some for leaning into the Anime Perv stereotype. Karol is not a very popular party member, but I don't think he's outright hated either. He is decently involved in the plot and does get some good character moments.

Low Fodder for all today.

Natalia, like quite a few TotA main characters, is divisive among fans. Not to the extent of Anise or Luke, but she's still far from being mid fodder.

Ingus is another FF3D exclusive character with limited appearances outside of that. Leon probably has some fans, but is also in one of the least popular main FF games, so I can't give him too much credit.

Mid Fodder for Kyle, using the same reasoning as for Stan. I haven't watched South Park in a long time so I couldn't tell you which of them is more popular.

Low Fodder for the others. Refia is the only girl in the FF3D main party and pretty cute, but hasn't really appeared much outside of that game. It's tough being exclusive to a remake.

Turtwig is probably between Chimchar and Piplup in terms of popularity - not nearly enough to get up to mid as a post-Gen 3 mon.

agree with axem

nominate Pyra for Re-Ranking. Despite being yet another sword character in Smash, Pyra seems to have been a pretty popular addition to SSBU, and Xenoblade 2 is pretty popular on the site judging by GOTD2. Add in TJF and I think Pyra could be higher than the mid fodder she is currently at.

Mythra does get a lot of the same benefits, but I don't think Gfaqs will like her as much due to her Tsun personality.

This is a topic to rate the contest strength of potential newcomers in the current contest environment.

I will pick the characters to rate and discuss for each day from user nominations - whoever the 3 most nominated characters are at that time. If there are more than 3 I will pick randomly. You can nominate any number of characters at any time, but you cannot nominate the same character twice.

All characters who were present in the 2018 Character Battle will NOT be eligible. Otherwise you can nominate any character that has appeared in video games; even comic book characters. This will exclude real-life athletes who have only appeared in long running sports series, however I will accept those who have their own games such as Shaq. I will accept nominations for iconic gaming duos too, if there is a compelling reason for both characters to be linked (either co-starring in a game ala Banjo & Kazooie, or always appearing together like Callie & Marie from Splatoon).

Each day will have a separate topic, and nominations will carry over. As far as actually rating the character's contest strength; I ask that users rank a characters potential strength with one of the following qualifiers - LAW Fodder, Low Fodder, Mid Fodder, High Fodder, Fodder Line, Low Midcarder, Midcarder, High Midcarder, Near Elite, Elite, LAW Tier (capable of beating Link). I will average all the ratings given to a character to come up with their final ranking. I have included a highlighted entrant from Character Battle X on each tier of the strength rankings below, to provide a baseline for each.

Note that LAW Fodder is meant to be a tier reserved for the weakest possible characters to put into a contest. A character will only be placed there if at least 3/4ths of the voters for that day agree on the LAW Fodder rating, and no ratings above Low Fodder are given. If either of those conditions are not met, the character will not be eligible for the LAW Fodder tier.

If you feel that a character has been over or under-ranked, or if a new development has come up that would affect their contest strength, you may nominate them for a re-ranking. You may nominate one character per day for this, and 3 votes are needed to get them on the slate. One character with 3 votes will come up for re-ranking today.

agree with axem. Stan and other South Park main characters are probably close to high fodder range, with only Cartman actually making it to that tier due to being the most memorable character from the show.

Prior to the Unicorn being nominated here I probably haven't though about Robot Unicorn Attack since 2012.

John Madden John Madden John Madden Low Fodder.

Low Fodder for Anise and Sandslash. Anise is probably the least-liked of the TotA cast, but does have some fans. Sandslash is a middle-of-the-road and pretty unremarkable Gen 1 Pokemon, but at least it's a cute spiky boi.

I will say High Fodder for Cartman, but it is definitely close. Gfaqs may not care as much for South Park as we previously thought, but Cartman is the standout from the series. For comparison Butters was rated mid fodder a long while back, but I think that's accurate since he is a fan favorite.

a million pokemon

I'd say there aren't many Pokemon left that are worth looking at. I only nominated all of Gen 1 for the memes.

second Anise, Natalia and the Pokemon axem nominated.

All Low Fodder for today's ratings. Arc is the series namesake and this being JRPGfaqs, I think he should be above law range. I don't think many people care for the pig monkeys, even though Ash did briefly own Primeape in the Gen 1 anime.

agree with axem. The rivalry poll was from 10 years ago so I'm not surprised Lightning/Barthandelus finished below even Fenix/Skorge, the latter of which we ranked law. Barthandelus is far more likely to be remembered on Gfaqs than a random Gears antagonist, and FF13 seems to be far less hated today than it would have been in 2011.

People do like Guy but he's not as big of a fan favorite as Jade.

Asch is probably in a similar place to Luke as far as being a divisive character in TotA, so I'll put him at Low Fodder. He's -kind of- the protagonist but not.

Mid Fodder for the crabby boys. Crab Rave is definitely something that benefits them, plus Ash used both in the Gen 1 anime. Plus they make memorably funny sounds - COOKIECOOKIE!
