I'll take a stab: (based on Paragon's with my own tweaks and Devil Jin) (In order from best to worst) S: Alpha Pat, Mitsurugi, Cervantes, Pyrrha Omega, Algol* A: Viola, Nightmare, Astaroth, Pyrrha, Natsu, Patroklos, Ivy, Yoshimitsu, Xiba* B: Voldo, Siegfried, Devil Jin*, Leixia, Maxi, Hilde...

Natsu's unblockable launcher absolutely rapes when I'm trying to get back up from a hit. I hate it so much.

Hmmm good advice guys. I'll have to try this in the lab. Thanks.

I've encountered more difficulty, this time against Astaroth. He has a lot of really good low attacks, especially that little spinny one he does... 1AA maybe? In any case, I'm noticing people online spam a lot of low moves, which catches a lot of people (including me) off guard. It makes me end...

Like I said, interesting stuff ;) I personally believe he's going to end up being mid to upper-mid at the end of the day, though. also this boosted my faith in Sieg some:

Saw these two tier lists over at GameFAQS: A- CERVANTES - ALPHA PAT - PYRRHA - VOLDO - NIGHTMARE - PATROKLOS - SIEGFRIED B- LEXIA - NATSU - RAPHAEL - VIOLA - XIBA - MITSU - OMEGA - YOSHIMITSU - EZIO C- HILDE - TIRA - ASTAROTH - MAXI - ZWEI - AEON - IVY D- DAMPIERRE & S: Alpha Pat...

I can't give you moves off the top of my head because I don't play her but I'll look into it.

Nothing else really needs to be said about the subject after that. One of my favorite moments in SCV so far was beating a Voldo player on XBL, where the majority of my offense was just Sieg's 3B over and over. Most of the time people sidestep or guard impact, but this guy just kept taking it...

Sorry, have to disagree there. Natsu is still ridiculously powerful in even novice hands. She isn't quite at the point of button mashingly easy to play but she's definitely not too tough to pick up. Its not big hits or anything necessarily that are the source of her big damage, its the easiness...

Interesting stuff. I find it funny how aPat should be the best but isn't because he's near impossible to use. Wouldn't that be a character flaw, and thus, make him not that great? Also, I strongly believe Siegfried is not nearly as bad as people are saying. I've had a lot of success with him...

This kind of specific advice is exactly what I needed. Thank you.

Omega gives me a ton of trouble, too. I'll get knocked down, particularly from her annoying stab deal (I don't play her, don't know what it is). It's a fast move, it knocks me down, and then when I'm flat on my back I just have to take my beating. Literally no idea how to counter the crap she's...

I'll definitely check it out, thanks. I find myself trying to go nose-to-nose a lot without really meaning to, usually because of blocked moves and me trying to keep the pressure on. Patience and spacing are things I need to work on, which can be tough due to the fast paced nature of some of the...

That's a good point. I often times try to get in their faces way too much instead of "bating" them properly. As Sieg its very tempting to just start spamming 3B in their faces if they don't know what to do to get out of it. AA(B) into K+BE and 3B3B is another one I try to go for a lot but its...

Good point. aPat is really fast and tricky, so a lot of the time I'm trying to think 2 or 3 moves ahead, but his mixups are so good I often get caught. Cervantes has an incredibly good ground game, too. Any character that can move from mids to lows with quick succession is dangerous.
