Hello everyone, and welcome to the project where we rank all the CBX characters by contest strength! This time, well be ranking the Fodder tier, comprised of the following characters:
Aqua, Aya Brea, Cuphead, D.Va, Godot, Gordon Freeman, Guile, Isabelle, Joel, John Marston, Kazuma Kiryu, Metal Man, Monika, Neku Sakuraba, Noctis Lucis Caelum, Primrose, Ryo Hazuki, Shantae, and Yu Narukami Before we get going, heres the Rules, as always: 1. If at all possible, please number your rankings (ex. 1 for the strongest character, etc.) - it makes your ranks much clearer, allowing me to tabulate them much easier. 2. Rankings of indirect strength are preferred, but direct rankings will be allowed, especially in tandem with indirect rankings. 3. Stick to one ranking per tier (or one ranking each of indirect and direct strength if you choose to separate them) - dont try to sway the standings with multiple accounts. 4. Youre always welcome to submit retroactive rankings if you missed one or more days, as well as change your existing rankings if so inclined, up until this project ends. 5. And most importantly, be nice to each other, even people you dont like! Discussion is welcomed and encouraged, but this isnt ultimately meant to be an overly serious project, so I dont want to see any knock-down, drag-out arguments developing in here about how someones not ranking by the stats or whatever else - use your discretion about this.

Shepard 2. Garrus 3. Ramza 4. Chris 5. Ezio 6. K. Rool 7. Shovel Knight 8. Riku 9. Claire 10. Richter (tie) 11. Shulk (tie) 12. Joker 13. Metal Sonic 14. Ellie 15. Geno 16. Lloyd 17. Velvet 18. Edgeworth 19. Dragonborn Finally, Day 9, which will be the Low Fodder tier, will be going up in the evening of December 30th (PT). --- Hail the reigning Guru champ, Advokaiser!

With the interest from last topic, I think I'll be going ahead with my idea of having bonus slates after our regular schedule is complete. That being said, we've got a few different ways we can approach this.
My first idea was to take lists of 30 pre-determined veterans who missed out on CBX, and 30 pre-determined newcomers who haven't been in a contest before (both selected to prioritize strength) and have you the rankers tackle those. My preliminary choices for those lists are the following: Veteran Snubs: Banjo, Barret Wallace, CATS, Cid Highwind, Darth Revan, Diablo, Dracula, Epona, Falco Lombardi, Gilgamesh, Jecht, Ken Masters, Liquid Snake, Marth, M. Bison, Meta Knight, Midna, Missingno, Morrigan Aensland, Pit, Pokmon Trainer Blue, Proto Man, Raiden, Rikku, Rydia of Mist, Solaire of Astora, Squirtle, Strider Hiryu, Urdnot Wrex, Weighted Companion Cube, and Zack Fair Newcomer Snubs: 9S, Bahamut, Black Mage, Blastoise, Bulbasaur, Chocobo, Dark Link, Dark Samus, Death, Ditto, Dogmeat, Johnny Cage, Left Pong Paddle, Linkle, Lulu, Majora, MegaMan.EXE, Misty, Paper Mario, Piranha Plant, Professor Oak, Psycho Mantis, Red XIII, Roy, Sheik, Sir Charles, Space Michael Jackson, TaliZorah nar Rayya, Venom Snake, and Yuffie Kisaragi If you're wondering who some of those newcomers are, most of them have links to wiki pages explaining about them from this page, which also has a partial list of other potential newcomers: http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/New_Characters I'm open to suggestions for any characters who deserve to be on either of those lists, or regarding any character on one of those lists who just doesn't belong. Another alternative for the veterans is to use darkx's idea of ranking all the veterans who have been in at least 3 character battles (but not CBX) in one ranking. If you have any other ideas you think might work for either the veteran or newcomer slates, please suggest them! --- Hail the reigning Guru champ, Advokaiser!

Again, the bottom-ranked Ace Attorney character should be in the next tier down. --- darkx Score: There goes bracket ... Copied to Clipboard!

My ranking:
1. Cuphead 2. Joel 3. Monika 4. Gordon 5. Guile 6. Shantae 7. Noctis 8. Aya 9. Yu Narukami 10. Ryo Hazuki 11. Kazuma 12. John Marston 13. Isabelle 14. Aqua 15. D.Va 16. Metal Man 17. Primrose 18. Neku 19. Godot I feel like Gordon was placed in a poor position as an icon who no one really cares about versus an icon people do care about, resulting in his unusually bad performance. That being said, Gordon fared so badly that there's only so much slack I can give him for that. Also, I'm judging Monika based on her rallies, as I would say there's very few if any opponents they wouldn't have manifested against this year. --- Hail the reigning Guru champ, Advokaiser!

Shovel Knight wasn't near the bottom? Good.
I'm going to rank these more based on how I think the matches would go one-on-one, as opposed to how well they'd do on Link or somebody strong. 1. Guile 2. Gordon 3. Aqua 4. Noctis 5. Joel 6. John Marston 7. Metal Man 8. Isabelle 9. Kazuma 10. Ryo Hazuki 11. Yu Narukami 12. Aya 13. Primrose 14. Shantae 15. Cuphead 16. Monika 17. Neku 18. D.Va 19.
