Top Ten Staff Users in Fighting Games

- The staff is one of the most common weapons in fighting games. It goes my many other names too, like Bo, Pole, stick, etc. Besides having lots of names, it’s versatile with how you fight with it. It’s great for ranged attacks, speed, strength, and much more. So, for this video, we want to find the most interesting users of this weapon. It could even just be staff-like if their fighting style suits the staff fighting style. My mom joins for this one, too.

As a Staff wielding user. I appreciate for included. I do practically train in real life and it is my signature weapon besides my double sticks(Filipino Arnis).
Always cool to see someone who practices the fighting style discussed in the video!
I use a switchblade n box cutter combo with pepper spray on my belt
My favorite weapon is the bo staff 😁

As a major fan of Soul Calibur, I am extremely happy that Kilik not only MADE this list, but TOPPED it. Popular demand, it would seem, as he's usually one of the first people to come to mind when you think "people who beat you up with a stick in fighting games"
Seung Mina better and bigger
Over jade?
I agree. Kilik is a top staff user
I was getting so scared when I didn't see Killik, until you mentioned the other SC Staff fighters in the Honorable mentions, and put him at Number 1.
His skill set isn't the flashiest, but he is the most...grounded in reality.
Nah, nah... His opponents tend to be the most grounded after fighting his skill. He canonically put everyone in the dirt that he's fought aside from Maxi (who he befriended) and Astorath (who Maxi eventually took out in his story).
Also, not the flashiest? Have you seen Kilik's throws? He pole dances to kick you in the face while your arms are restrained behind your back. He spreads your legs and nut-checks you or lift you over his head with the leverage onto your own head behind him. He runs off your back, twirls in mid air and aims the tip of his bow directly for the lowest part of your spine to paralyze you with accuracy akin to an aim-bot. He'll hit you in the face to stagger you, twirl it around his neck to hit you again hard enough to catch you airborne and then smack you in the back to make sure gravity doesn't fuck up it's job by doing it to take less time.
Not to mention he breakdances in battle in every iteration of Soul Calibur he's in. He twirls his staff like a baton both forwards and backwards, increasing in speed and damage with after-glow effects. He pole-vaults with several kicking techniques... Half his move-set is the epitome of flashy. Wouldn't say it's grounded in reality as half of the attacks he does simply can't be replicated in an effective or quick manner.
But that aside, I wasn't scared... I was just gonna hit the dislike if Kilik wasn't in the top 3 spots, because I couldn't think of anyone better than him for the top of the list. I might be biased since I've been a Kilik main since Soul Calibur on Dreamcast, but meh. I was confident enough to not feel ready to take my like on the video away. Lol.
Unless its SC6 kilik 😆
@@JeiJohnson some of his moves are flashy, but all he does, comparatively, is use his bo-staff.... It's not like the person who has a staff that breaks into parts, or telekinetically controls it.
@@Kuronosa True, but what about Rolento who uses his baton like a baton? Or Okina, who just uses his fishing pole as if it was a standard stick? Or Donatello who just uses the bo-staff normally, aside from the one-handed twirl which is almost exclusive to that game and not any other iteration?
Gambit, Nicotine and Venom could so be grounded in reality when it comes strictly to their pole-fighting abilities. Their other non-pole abilities are grounded in some kind of kinetic or spiritual energy - but that's limited to cards (Gambit), talisman (Nicotine) and the cue balls (Venom), not their staff skills. Nicotine's entire kit would be grounded in folklore with some kinda hidden truth behind it lost in reality since he's a wandering Buddhist priest/monk.
Just saying, there are about half the roster that fits the "realism" category when it comes to stick-fighting.
Having a Staff Wielding Character in a Video Game (especially a Fighting Game) is a Great Tribute to the *Monkey King* (Sun Wukong) from the "Journey to the West" Story,
Which is how I'll be Hype for the upcoming "Black Myth Wukong" Game if it gets a Release Date.
I love your mom's commentary it's pretty funny especially the bit at 16:44. That's also a crossover I'd like to see
Thank you so much for another brilliant fighting game list, Mr.TopTenList. It’s always a pleasure to hear your mother again. :) I have to agree with Kilik being no. 1 just due to how significant his staff plays a role in his story, rather than just being a weapon of choice for him. I’m glad Billy and Jade made the list though!
Nicotine caffeine got his name thanks to a senior imployer at SNK who was adiccted at the time,so in some ways its like a homage.
This list would not have been complete without Killik the whole time I was waiting for him to be mentioned but I’m delighted that he’s at the top where he belongs
He’s always been my favorite character to play as in the Soul Caliber series bc I love his fighting style and have had a crush on him ever since I played the heck out of Soul Caliber 2 back in 2002 while my brother mostly favored Nightmare and Siegfried
I think I like Billy Kane the most. He is a great underling to Geese since he is indepted to him, and he has cool staff moves!
Faust and seong mina deserves honorable mentions because they are important staff wielders in fighting games too
Seong Mi-Na uses a naginata though
@@NihilisticSnake still it counts
I was almost mad you didn’t have kilik on the list, but then you said he was number one!! I love kilik. He is my top favorite character from soul calibur 😍
Top 10 "Bruce Lee" characters
top 10 drunken fist characters
top 10 sword users
top 10 axe users
top 10 knife users
top 10 claw users
top 10 nunchuck users
top 10 hammer users
top 10 small characters
top 10 secret characters
top 10 character rivalries
Also top 10 captains like Capt. America & Capt. Planet,& top 10 robot versions of other characters like metal sonic & mecha godzilla
Athena in Saint Seiya: Brave Soldiers not only is the only staff user in the game, but is one of the few armed characters in the game.
I love the list but I feel as though Billy should've been #2 since, as you said, he's able to attack with it so fast it looks like the cane split into a million pieces. I just feel like using pure skill is more impressive than having a cool tool to do attacks for you. I still loved your list though and I definitely agree with kilik being #1.
Yoooo a top 10 Bo Staff list?! My absolute favorite weapon of all time. I've been using it in martial arts since childhood.
Kilik, Donatello, and Nightwing are my top three hands down.
I almost thought you forgot Kilik for a second. I was about to be outraged haha nice recovery.
The fact that your mom loves the staff is awesome too✊🏿
Hey man you did great job with the selection but you could have mention also a very good and famous staff user and that's the cat burglar Nami from One Piece. Her staff is not only for hitting, it can also control the weather
I Know a Lance Is Not a Staff But Billy Cranston in Power Rangers Legacy Wars also David Yost will reprise his iconic role in season 30 of Power Rangers
Heck yeah! I love this list! Now I want to see top ten character inspired by Son Wukong.
Glad to finally have a vid on my fave weapon and your mom is a gamer like you.
I actually am training to use tom boas in real life, witch is basically a boa cut in half and it got me thinking. If you haven't already done it, best fighting characters that duel weird weapons
I once had an idea for a fighting game with odd/unorthodox weapons. Like a pirate who weilds an anchor like a chain sickle, a viking using a stein like a hammer, a cowboy who uses their hair like a lasso/whip... stuff like that.
OH WOW I've actually played that TMNT game! I remember a friend letting me borrow it while he borrowed one of my games . . . . I gave his game back I never got mine back.
Nicotine/caffeine reminds me of the spy dakuan from ninja scroll. He is almost identical, so I assume that's where the inspiration came from. He even carries a staff like nicotine/caffeine.
Since now you've done the Top 10 Staff Wielding Characters in Fighting Games,
Now let's see if you're willing to do a Top 10 Spear Wielding Characters in Fighting Games.
LOL, love the honorable mention for Gambit. He would've been my #2 pick for this particular list.
I like when you used footage of Doantello from TMNT Tournament fighters.
Now that i think about it,my suggestion top 10 weapon users in fighting games might be too specific. I was thinking be the character who brings a weapon to a fist fight in worlds where u fight demons,robots,space aliens,& humans w/supernatural powers
Oh, that "staff", i was thingking the different "staff"
And I was thinking the different, different staff
Jades pole makes the best and most satisfying sounds when bashing the other player. 😊
Top 10 sakura / cherry blossom -
Senbonzakura Kageyoshi (Bleach), Cherry Blossom Blizzard (Monster Rancher), Sakura Blizzard Technique (Naruto), Talaya, Princess of Cherry Blossoms (Yu-Gi-Oh), etc.
Or 10 ten characters has the name Sakura
@@solartistninja That's a great idea!
just to be more specific: billy's cane (pun intended) is a sansetsukon, a three part nunchuck.
Top Ten Saul Goodman suits
Whenever I need good background conversation, I come here. Click on video, like video, listen to intro, say hi to co-host, chuckle lightly and get to work. It's a good time.
Kid Goku nice I remember Rolento was fun to use but cool video. ^_^
on nicotine caffeine, his names supposed to be an ironic multilingual pun, and those don't tend to translate well so they just left the funnier half.
Cheers to you and your mom for another great list. Her commentary is sublime indeed.
Thank you!
10:26 I had never seen this lynching super before. jfc that's dark
It's cool that mama top ten list was featured in this video
Glad to hear it!
Whole time I was lookin for Kilik. Truly THE quintessential staff user in fighting games. Kilik is the man. Really great list all around though. I appreciate all the explanation about what makes the characters cool from the games that I haven't personally played. Keep up the great videos! 👍
Have you considered top ten military people in fighting games?
Rolento and Billy are the GOATS! How about Kim from Kizuna Encounter? He's like Kim Kaphwan but with a staff!
Genbu no Okina seems also be a reference at Urashima Taro. A young fisherman who save a turtle
For an interesting dark horse pick, I know they would never make the list, only being in one (tech2?) game but Hualin, a character from Soul Calibur 3 (technically one of the 3 shop keepers along with Valeria and Lynette) she actually had the most accurate recreation of Sun Wukong's staff as it extended and shape shifted. It was the create a style but I suspect it was never brought back because of the kinda ridic full screen/quick unblockables. But she's incredibly unique. Unless you do certain moves the staff is a miniature weapo, barely extending out of her palm. But yeah super cool/rare/interesting honorable mention from me! Alits.
Always glad to hear from the best mom in fighting game TH-camrs. Great video
15:58 good bit lol. good video as well, your mom is cute and very pleasant.
Thank you! Always glad to hear it
Because Billy is on this list, do you think a top 10 bodyguards is possible? I know henchmen may include bodyguards, but bodyguards are a class all their own.
Top ten sucubus in fighting games
I'm happy Kilik made number 1. I managed to beat his story mode in SC3, using nothing but the right analog stick for my attacks; after finding out I could literally control the staff myself, to an extent.
Great video and another possible weapon choice for a video you could do is top ten boomerang users.
Boomerangs would be so cool! I can only think of a few off the top of my head, but maybe that could be a mixed media list to expand the options
@@MrTopTenList the only characters I can think of are.
Captain boomerang (Dc comics)
Sango (Inuyasha)
Sokka (avatar the last air bender)
Kirby with cutter ability
Sticks the badger (sonic boom)
Boomerang Mario or boomerang bro
Link (different legend of Zelda games)
Since Memorial Day is in May,how bout top 10 military characters in fighting games?
Kinda sad that sin kiske didn't make the list but great list nonetheless staff users are some of my favorite characters and its nice to see them getting some appreciation
Suggestion:
Top 10 Succubi in Media
Staves are pretty nice weapons for pole-verizing!
love your fighting game vids keep it up homie 💪
Thank you!
Staff users are definitely a fighting game archetype that I enjoy. Can't argue with that reach!
Another great list guys!
Thank you!
YES a surprise mom vid! I absolutely love these!
Always makes me smile to see these
(Great video as always too)
Thank you!
Jade is a very cool lady. Though, not as cool as your mom!
I’ve been learning how to fight with a stick since I used to main Billy Kane in Real bout Fatal fury
I Like Donatello Nicotine Caffine Dick Grayson Nightwing Rolento Billy Kane Jade Gambit Raiden Falke and Kilik They’re My Favourite Fighting Game Staff Users
Nice video!
The only thing I would change would be to add more Soul Calibur 3 footage.
For venom, the eye on his hair is the eye of Horus of Egyptian mythology. Also billy Kane is my favorite bojutsu user HEY HEY HEY!
Ms.TopTenTen has quite the knack for narration like her son.
Considering I've had to carry a blind cane since I was a kid, I am partial to this list. Fun fact, blind fighting is all about grappling. Not Zangief-style power-grappling (although some of us are physical enough to pull it off) but rather judo-based. The idea is get a hand on them and keep real close so they can't punch you as effectively.
Can you do top 10 sword users in fighting games?
I'm a huge fan of the franchise, but when I think staff users my mind instantly goes to Mondo from Battle Arena Toshinden.
You just know Kilik is on this list
GREAT list, through & through! Also, Billy Kane's staff could be sulphur tipped like matchsticks... just a thought. 😎👍
Still no love for Sega fighters? I know Last Bronx wasn't that popular or known but Tommy could have made it to the honorable mentions list, oh well at least I remember him lol.
I love reintroducing people to obscure 90s and 2000s fighting games, so I'll add that to my list of games to check out!
Seong Mi-na was the original staff user of the soul caliber series which is one of my favorites along with jade and Tanya from MKX
Lost Saga
Hong Gil-Dong aka Staff Master, Monk & Jeon Woo-Chi
3 of the characters have staff but 1 character can switch between with their Fists & Staff which is Monk & 2 Staff Master & Jeon
Woo-Chi can summon clones rather they can attack you or its an Illusion.
14:07 😂
16:44 Wow 🤔
Dang. No Honorable mention for Sin Kiske. I was expecting him to be talked about alongside venom but no mention at all.
You know you've done a video About top ten ice themed stages in fighting games before but why don't you do video about top stages in fighting games in general?
did yo hear about the fei Long embargo?
I wish they added Merrick the Lunar Wolf Ranger from Power Ranger Wild Force in Battle for the Grid considering his Pool techniques, very impressive for the Super Sentai Standards, but I think they have some legal problems to cover characters from Wild Force to Dino Thunder.
I'm Learning Stick Fighting So Thank You For This Video. 👍😀😊🥰
Let me say this, i'm just glad that you're still uploading but could you update some of your list from a few years ago?
Thank you. Since updating old videos takes as much time to make as a new video, I only plan to do that for videos where I have a lot of new stuff to say on the topic since it would take up an upload spot, like when I remade my Fighting Game Protagonists list in 2018. Still, there are old videos I do want to revisit, so there are a few I plan on doing that with
@@MrTopTenList if you could, please do since there are a few new fighting games. I found some new fighting games because of your videos
if kilik wasnt on this list i was gonna cry about it.
I see why he brought his mom to do a video one polls given her profession and all.
Who Will Win?
A Demon Edgelord Antagonist
Or
That One Staff User
Can you do top ten list of characters who use weapons in fighting games like knifes and fans etc
I hope to see a Top 10 Sludge Monsters soon (and Raremon from Digimon should be on the list).
How about merging your Top Ten Staff Users in Fighting Games list with your Top Ten Witches list to make a Top Ten List of Witches in Fighting Games?
