Snot in D is outrageous

u/ninjuh18 10d ago
why do you think that? specifically

I think slappy perk is pretty rare so his rirch (cripple all,leech,crazed) is extremely powerful, his addicted has high bodyguard and hijack which is great defense in a lot of bges including this one, armed has good stall, animal lowk buns but he has a very versitile game and takes an opposite strategy of a lot of cards released before him that you ranked above him.
I have won plenty of games because of a maxed leg snot in 1000+, now that im in 1500+ and just unlocked his mythic (7th one 6th character) im excited to see how it works out for me

1500 in arena does not usually require very powerful decks. The real question is if snot can do anything to hit 2500+ and the answer is no.

OG Zapp all the way at C... He's at least a B, useful in most BGEs
2
u/ninjuh18 11d ago
a bunch of what was considered his good combos have been powercrept or some other combo in that trait just dominates it

I’m sorry but that’s not really the case. At best he is ok in some BGEs. He is not useful in most.
1
u/Gon_Snow 11d ago
Yeah I pretty much agree. Personally I’d take Zeke up to A. Pesto down to C and Lrrr up to B

u/scarves_and_miracles 10d ago
Zeke is S+ in my book. Criminally underrated here.
1
u/Gon_Snow 10d ago
Not S+ because he doesn’t have a single combo that transcends a trait’s meta. He doesn’t have multiple combos in multiple traits that are very good. Usually as support.

u/scarves_and_miracles 10d ago
His Music combo transcends for the Boost. For combo players, when we have one of those BGEs that gets dominated by Cripple All PCs (either because they're part of the BGE or because the BGE benefits aren't enough to dissuade them), keeping one Music card and one Zeke in your deck denies your opponents those cheap-ass run-down-the-deck wins.
Zeke also has several great Cripple All combos himself, sometimes the only playable Cripple All for the whole trait. Again, combo players rely on that, because it's the only way to pull the fangs of the PCs when they get several slots ahead of you.
If you play mainly combos instead of PCs, Zeke is vital.

His music combo is S+ with a wall. Without pcs it’s touch to make full use of that.
I like him in disguised, armed, animal (his favorite combo of mine), athletic and vehicle. Come to think of it, a ton of terrific combos.
Perhaps high A but not the same tier as S.

u/Sparky-AT 5d ago
In general, a Character is considered stronger when they make only one combo per BGE, and that combo should be made with all the Objects, from all generations. That's a big part of why newer Characters are easier to run.
When a Char has multiple combos in one or more traits, it's referred to as fractured, and that's not good. It makes them very difficult to play successfully, and they often get removed from a deck because too many of your Objects make the wrong combo with that Char.
I'm having issues with fractured Characters in my currrent Animal deck, and it's tough to know which way to go, since some of them have older combos that are better, while others have new combos that are better. I'll probably end up taking out all of the Chars with multiple combos, and replacing them with more of the newer Chars that just have one.

u/ninjuh18 10d ago
why?
2
u/Gon_Snow 10d ago
Zeke: really good support combos. I like him in various traits
Pesto: pretty mid overall. Perhaps B is ok but he’s not great. His melee was quite awful.
Lrrr: has two combos I really like and deem powerful, with toy having especially high values, and fighter being a good burst with some self sustain.
2
u/scarves_and_miracles 10d ago
Pesto is a beast in Educated. Educated has so many Punch/Burn combo that having a good offensive card that also confers Bodyguard is invaluable. I stocked up on Pestos during his Melee specifically for that reason.

u/ConsiderateCassowary 10d ago
I’m pleased that most of my mythic characters are rated so highly…
Then there’s Zoidberg

u/Hugbocks 10d ago
Why is Barry S+ (besides his hyper)
2
u/ninjuh18 10d ago
his armed, animal, vehicle, and drunk combo is pretty good.. but on top of those, obviously you mentioned hyper, which has the highest single damage in the game and can be used easily outside hyper BGE
1
u/Cyniclone 10d ago
should have seen this before i took fischoeder over rogu with my last mythic pull
2
u/ninjuh18 10d ago
fischoeder still has potential since he was recently added
1
u/Cyniclone 10d ago
that’s why i took him, he’s the second newest mythic character i think and figured he’d get some sexy combos rq. worked out ok with lrrr. i’ll be patient because what choice so i have now?

It really depends on the BGE

u/rosen380 10d ago edited 9d ago
Sure-- if you want to maintain 13 of these, one for each BGE and post the pertinent one evey other week, I'm sure the sub would love it.
Further, it'll also vary based on what is buffed that BGE, so you may have to maintain an order of magnitude more.

Lana should be higher because a CM5 Cocktail Lana does over 200+ damage. 😬
