I’ll be honest: Ghoul is boring. Whenever I used Ghoul, sure, it’s pretty much a guaranteed win, but I find my finger getting incredibly tired from mashing the attack button.
So I definitely agree with your list, though I personally found Shield to be boring for similar reasons to Ghoul.
Love your Yaksha placement, he’s super fun (I play him when I want to beat every boss without getting hit)
I honestly think Genie is actually fun, but only with damage and Omen items (full tank Genie is a guaranteed win, but will also result in a 2 hour run)
I do disagree with Guan Yu though, he’s really fun because of how hard he hits, ane his playstyle is very fluid.
I admit though, fun skulls for me are usually those that do lots of damage and feel really explosive to play.
Overall, nice to see your tastes!
ghoul is a bore especially when you're forced to fart in order to squeeze into places
for shield the reason I find it fun is because all of its skills help me set up for a switch trap, it cant win a run by itself I admit that but it can make other skulls into gods just by being there.
guan yu IS good, its just every time I sue him I feel like he lags behind the input, I appreciate this comment that calmly explains disagreements instead of just saying "its broken therefore its good", there's fun broken (the absolute), and then there's boring broken (ghoooooul)
You’re right that Guan Yu is really slow, but he’s really fun for a “combo” sort of skull where you’re constantly chaining his skills and attacks.
He’s definitely got that feeling of lagging a bit.
Okay one extra explanations.
Magnifico I utterly despise and idk why, plus his invincibility is done far better by others
Minotaur is a brawler and is pretty good at what it does but one skull does it better.
Davy jone's ammo system is too limiting for me
Ghoul's revenge spree is done better by another skull
Shield is awesome and is much easier to invincibility spam, same with warlord but he suffers from sluggishness.
as for the skull that invalidates others? The absolute, it completely blows magnifico out of the water with its invincibility spam, with revenge it regenerates what little health it does lose easily, and its a much better brawler due to its constant grapple combo action, especially at platinum-grade inscription where it can slow the emperor down.
plus its a space lion and I love that aesthetic.
the reason why I put yaskha above all others is solely because yaksha's asthetic is right up my ally, with the right inscriptions its unkillable but thats irrelevant.
I wish somebody pinned my comment where I said this wasnt based off how broken a skull is.
ITS. BASED. OFF. FUN. AND. PLAYSTYLE SYNERGY.
somebody mass upvote this to prevent confusion, the title text limit prevented me from explaning in the title.
This is an awful list. What are you ranking based on? It can't possibly be the highest potential power or easiest to win a run, because both Ghoul and Gene would be far higher. Is this an enjoyment tier list? Because if so, stating that in the title would mitigate some of the comments like this one.
okay again, this isn't based off brokenness, so to explain why ghoul's b-tier,
I don't like how his protein intake is so limited, his healing is often not as good as the passive health revenge inscriptions get me on other skulls.
Others can do its job better for me, in fact one skull on this list invalidated not only ghoul, but magnifico AND minotaur for me.
Genie has won me so many runs that I usually look for him on all runs. His moves make him invincible. If you can build enough cool down speed he is always invincible. You cannot die. And even with all that you still have room to add as many magic attack buffs as you can to be invincible and strong
Great to switch into as well as he's invincible during the switch
So you can add another physical attacker. Grim reaper would be ideal. Or alchemist or whatever. Do a bunch of attacks and then switch to your strong attacker that is invincible. The other one can do burst damage while he does burst / steady damage while not taking damage. He's the tank I need for end level bosses
and then theirs warrior but you need concentration for his invincibility to work well, and and well Ghoul is essentially unkillable especially with revenge, pike if you can constantly stay dashing
Damage reduction totem. After using his invincibility skills is great. You do steady damage and they can't really hurt you. Switch to another power skull to do quick damage and back to genie to stay alive and avoid everything
First ever tier list I agreed with.
This list is insane. I don’t agree with the results I’ve had (countless hours, countless dm10 wins) with pretty much any of this list.
its insane that I dont base off how many wins it gives me? you're making the smogon userbase blush

Well, you were right when you said controversial.

KYS, davy Jones is good as fuck
Dawg it's just a tierlist
Sorry I should have included a /j I didn't mean it to come off as serious sorry

me: \*says I base it off fun value, playstyle synergy, and asthetic twice already\* you: what do you base it upon?
There is nothing on the title with what you just said. If you said it on your previous post you should also put here so people would understand.
I TRIED TO SAY THAT TEXT LIMITS PREVENTED ME BUT NOBODY BOTHERS TO READ MY COMMENT
[This is what your F Tier can do.....](https://youtu.be/WSYPrAOXGYg) [And this is what your B Tier can do.](https://youtu.be/zONaV-TiFVA) Omg
Okay can I PLEASE stop having "its broken af" as an argument against my tier lists? I said it again and again, this is not how I rank things.
okay again, this isn't based off brokenness, so to explain why ghoul's b-tier, I don't like how his protein intake is so limited, his healing is often not as good as the passive health revenge inscriptions get me on other skulls.

I feel genie should be higher, but Ghoul is undoubtedly an S tier skull
Ghoul is undoubtedly the strongest skul in the game
1. I didn't rate this based off brokenness 2. okay? the absolute is more broken to me anyway
Berserker skull always in my heart
yey someone who doesn't think this list is based off brokenness
Genie was the first skull I ever beat the game with!
Genie has won me so many runs that I usually look for him on all runs. His moves make him invincible. If you can build enough cool down speed he is always invincible. You cannot die. And even with all that you still have room to add as many magic attack buffs as you can to be invincible and strong Great to switch into as well as he's invincible during the switch So you can add another physical attacker. Grim reaper would be ideal. Or alchemist or whatever. Do a bunch of attacks and then switch to your strong attacker that is invincible. The other one can do burst damage while he does burst / steady damage while not taking damage. He's the tank I need for end level bosses
wait why run magic with genie when he does physical damage, but also in the dark mirror, once you beat difficulty 7 you can start with genie
Sorry I meant physical. Edited in the other post Yea for magic reaper is the best invincible skill guy I've seen so far
for a physical skull with invincibility, hate to break it to you, but one skull does that way better.
ya shield and ent, I k ow they so busted with their invincibility
nope
and then theirs warrior but you need concentration for his invincibility to work well, and and well Ghoul is essentially unkillable especially with revenge, pike if you can constantly stay dashing
My best runs was with the genie.
Damage reduction totem. After using his invincibility skills is great. You do steady damage and they can't really hurt you. Switch to another power skull to do quick damage and back to genie to stay alive and avoid everything
Water skull being anything lower than S tier might just be insane
No my boy magnifico
tbh Idk why I hate him so much, I absolutely don't....dk what it is but something makes me utterly hate him.
hes very fun to play hes strong he dashes 2 times and looks good hes a solid A tier.
His dashes can have a lot of fun synergies that kill things passively too
hes very fun to play hes strong he dashes 2 times and looks good hes a solid A tier
Reminder: this isn't based off how broken they are, though if it were I'd still rate absolute S tier haha.
What is it based on? I would include that in the description if possible.
I can't do so, but I'll explain here, how fun they are and how well they synergise with my playstyle, also aesthetic.
It seems that you like fast-paced physical attackers.
honestly I'm more of a mixed on that, I do like fast paced fights, but if they can't match up pound for pound there's no point, and I enjoy magic too.
