I just got my DT 1&2 and DTA pledge and have slowly been able to bring it to the table a couple of times. Monk is one of the characters I drew and random. I was really disappointed at first as he didn't look very strong and, personally, it's not my favorite type of character. But daaaaaaaaamn was he good. I was blown away by his power but not as much as my opponent was. ;)
@@MisterBoardGamer I've finally tried the Paladin today for the first time. Really impressed with his kit's variety. Definitely think he'll be in my first DTA run.
I could go on and on about this game. Needless to say anyone can beat anyone. My personal powerhouse is Cursed Pirate, but each has its own play style. Once you master a character move onto the rest. DTA is so fun with 4 people such a great CO-OP game.
Just bought my first retail pack. These little summaries are probably the best hero summaries I've seen so far - concise and not too complicated. Thanks!
Love your Dice Throne content. I play this game ALL THE TIME and you STILL got me hyped. Barbarian, Pirate, and Pyromancer would have been my additions to your list, but you picked a good set of 8.
So pumped to get season two soon! We are new to Dice Throne. I have only played the Moon Elf and the Pyromancer of Season One Rerolled so far, and my husband has only played the Barbarian. Pyromancer is my favorite of the three. I am excited to try them all! Also, I kind of want matching dice trays now. :) Those are cool.
Pyromancer is so strong! This list was hard because they’re all such good characters, I think Season 2 does a great job at introducing more complex characters while keeping the older ones relevant
Ayy thanks a lot! This is my favorite sort of comment, since I’m “self-taught” if you could call it that 😆 🙏🏾 I wanted the VFX to be my signature and it felt like something unique to bring to the tabletop space. A lot of my favorite content creators (CalebCity, RDCworld, AfroSenju) have their niche but focus on having fun with it. Really excited to put in some time with this next video now. Thanks for the boost!
Thank you for your content. It would be nice to see more analysis videos of the other dice throne characters and your opinions on how they play…maybe after you play 10 games or something with that character. Also, coheed! You have great taste in music!
Love your explanations of the characters and why they got the spot you put them at. I haven't gotten my hands on Shadow Thief yet, but after watching you explain how they work, I think I might have to avoid buying them in fear of going against them! All in all, great video!
@@MisterBoardGamer No worries! I'm also a complete Shadow Thief person, just loving the easy CP and card gains, poisoning foes, evasion of damage, the list could go on! Can't wait for your Adventures playthrough with the Monk!
Played with the Samurai and Monk in DT Adventures. Shadow Thief will be next. I got through my first campaign with the Samurai without a Portal or Boss loss, although a few wins were by the skin of my teeth. The Honor and Strike Back come in handy, but I really appreciate the defense ability of the Samurai. And, you're right about Undefendable Damage. It make makes a huge difference against some Minions, even if it is just 3 damage.
I have lost so many crawls because I didn't have undefendable atks on the Monk... your comment makes me wanna do a "speed run/marathon" one day and see how far I can take Samurai solo
I really liked the video, it was very entertaining and interesting to see how you placed them! I personally really like the tactician so maybe he could have made the spot, but other than that, great video!
Personally, my favorites are Shadow Thief, Treant, Artificer, Paladin, and Monk. Vampire Lord is close as well. I like Seraph and Ninja as well, their dice just never seem to roll well for me.
I do love Artificer - the bots remind me of Heimerdinger from LOL or Mei Hastume from MHA. Both of them are SUPER complex (to play & to film, at the time I had mapped out ideas for EVERY fighter) so I don't get them on the table as often. These 8 are the ones me and my friends pull the most even though I hate Shadow Thief and wish they didn't exist!!!
Sleeping on the pyro and artificer!! I do love the Agro hero though. Really surprised Huntress made this list, I struggle with her more than anyone else!
I am a huge Ranger/Druid RPG player so I had to give her a real look. She can be so deadly if you use Nyra at the right time but, if Nyra faints she loses half her utility
no hero is a dud. anyone can take down anyone. its all in the dice at the end of the day. however, there is definitely a playstyle niche that each hero fills. best advice is to do your research then make your purchase.
Love the video. I just bought season 1 rerolled and Season 2. Was looking for a video on the characters and what they do. Would love to see your take on the other 8 characters.
I couldn't agree more on your number two. The thief is so bad and I hate him so much that I would also put him at number two. My wife and I played a single elimination game of all 14 characters (28 games) pre-rerolled. I played the cursed pirate first and took out six of her characters then she got the cursed pirate later on and she took out six of my characters that's 12 games of the 28 games we played. The lot of people say that the cursed pirate can be beaten.and I don't disagree but taking out 12 characters and out 28 is something to be afraid of. The way to play her is to do as much damage as you can and flipping the board as fast as you can and then using all of the superpowers from the other side to wipe the floor with the characters. So hands-down my number one is cursed pirate I don't even play her very much because it's so uneven going against her.
FINALLY. You’re the first person I’ve ever run into who believes in the power of Chi. I’ve been playing solo DT Adventures a lot lately and since Chi can reduce undefendable damage too… Monk is OP
i thought the same thing about shadow thief. every time i gain shadows off of DEFENSE i love to say ''playtest? what playtest?'' lately ive taken a break from the thief to mess around with paladin. (love characters who generate massive amounts of cp) i gotta say, the paladin seems like a solid character with a solid defense and passive. my next investment might be the tactician because his kit seems like one id vibe pretty hard with. anyone here have an opinion on tactician?
I want to like Huntress, but I just can’t seem to do well with her. You’d think with the extra health with Nyra, would allow for extra time to wear down your opponent, but I just keep losing with her.
Oh I definitely been there. We're thinking of her the same way, since she doesn't have a lot of big damage. I use Nyra as the "Ultimate Shield" but I win with her when I focus on keeping bleed up while healing/playing defensive even when Nyra is alive. After she dies you're mad vulnerable and have less attack potential when she's not adding bleed
I haven't played with the samurai Myself yet, but it sounds like he has a lot of counter Attacks. Which means you want to get those cards in your hand as quick as possible, to be able Inflict maximum damage when he's be attacked.
GLAD YOU ASKED! I think the defense is decent - it doesn’t give you a lot of dice but, it guarantees you will a) deal damage b) prevent damage or c) deal and prevent on the same roll (because it makes use of every die face). Two other reasons: 1) Backstrike/Honor tokens are a lot better than I could touch on in this short vid. Any opportunity to deal damage without spending cards is solid. And he has a PASSIVE that helps : “BUSHIDO” - at the end of the turn, if you use less than 3 rolls during your Offense, gain Honor.” 2) Samurai is forgiving on rolls (useful for the passive noted above). He only has 3 possible symbols (katana/kabuto/rising sun). So if you don’t like your first two rolls, or keep a bad combo, it’s very unlikely you will fail to attack altogether. He won’t do massive damage playing like that but, you won’t regret settling for any damage.
They just released a Marvel collaboration featuring heroes like Black Panther. I’d say S3 is is probably far off but Dice Throne: Adventures has a bunch of co-op/dungeon crawling content until then!
wow you'd think that a class whose mechanics revolve around SP would have increased SP cost on their class cards to compensate for their SP gaining abilities, crazy.

Welcome to Dice Throne - and thanks for commenting, concise is exactly what I’m aiming for. My LEAST favorites coming in a couple weeks
Excellent vid! New to Dice Throne, and this is perfect as an introduction to the game. Impressive special effects! Subbed.
Appreciate you! Got a new job & moving soon but new videos are in the pipeline including my adventures play thru
Love your Dice Throne content. I play this game ALL THE TIME and you STILL got me hyped. Barbarian, Pirate, and Pyromancer would have been my additions to your list, but you picked a good set of 8.
Just dropped the Monk solo play for you! Hope you love it

Appreciate the visual flare with those little 2D special effect animations! Some of them are even tracked with camera movements? Looks very nice.

Hah, loved the Quackalope shoutout. Not sure who my favorites are, it’s still early days for me, but man am I loving this game!
You feel like a Treant to me, Purple Moose 😆
@@MisterBoardGamer Very curious to try the Treant out. Using the Barbarian for the campaign for now, but only because he was simplest to start.
Commenting and complementing just to say thank you for having clean cut nails.
Bro 😂 thank YOU for noticing. I’m really out here giving it my all on every detail
They need an Egyptian style set. Pharaoh vs Ancient Mummy !
Great video!
Awesome video and list! The Treant puns killed me! I own Season 2 but this has me wanting to get some of these other characters
Awesome Video!
I really liked the video, it was very entertaining and interesting to see how you placed them! I personally really like the tactician so maybe he could have made the spot, but other than that, great video!
I'll do a vid on the fighters I didn't get to here. Honestly if I thought anyone would watch a documentary on each one, I'd have done it HAH
@@MisterBoardGamer well people spend hundreds of dollars on this game so why wouldnt they also spend several hours on watching a documentary hehe
Personally, my favorites are Shadow Thief, Treant, Artificer, Paladin, and Monk. Vampire Lord is close as well. I like Seraph and Ninja as well, their dice just never seem to roll well for me.
Maaaan shadow thief at 2? Let's fight
Not gonna lie monk and thief are my 1 and 2 also.
OH LOOK! WE GOT A SHADOW THIEF MAIN ☠️ 😂
Went up against the Monk last night for the very first time, he is a problem! And yea my ninja lost...
Won’t be caught sleeping on the Monk again 😆 those Chi Tokens start stacking up way too fast
Good job man
Excellent video. I see we have similar likes! My favs are Treant - Samurai - Monk - Seraph Cheers to you!
alright, this video was really helpful...but more than that, you got my subscribe with the great gunslinger shooting graphic immediately :)
Haha most animations I try to keep subtle but she’s got TWO guns. Had to let ‘em pop
Great vid, loved the explanations. I just don't understand how you don't have Artificer or Cursed Pirate in this list!
I do love Artificer - the bots remind me of Heimerdinger from LOL or Mei Hastume from MHA.
Both of them are SUPER complex (to play & to film, at the time I had mapped out ideas for EVERY fighter) so I don't get them on the table as often. These 8 are the ones me and my friends pull the most even though I hate Shadow Thief and wish they didn't exist!!!
Well if you come out to Western Wa you can come play with us and get a full dose of those two ;)
Sleeping on the pyro and artificer!! I do love the Agro hero though. Really surprised Huntress made this list, I struggle with her more than anyone else!
I am a huge Ranger/Druid RPG player so I had to give her a real look. She can be so deadly if you use Nyra at the right time but, if Nyra faints she loses half her utility
Love the list, however the Shadow Thief can not increase his health, I'm guessing you meant his CP?
Yep - that’s right! Thanks for flagging. Updating the description w the edit.
I just got the gunslinger and Samurai. I’m happy that they are both on the list. I didn’t want to start out with a couple duds.
If I was starting new, I'd say Season 2 has the best fighters to pick from!
no hero is a dud. anyone can take down anyone. its all in the dice at the end of the day. however, there is definitely a playstyle niche that each hero fills. best advice is to do your research then make your purchase.
Would love to hear your views on the new Marvel Dice Throne KS!
How about a KS roundup? All the games I have backed in 2021 & ones I passed on (for the holiday season)
Great video man.
I really play mostly the vampire and the huntress and i really enjoy them 😎
Thanks for watching! I have to try Vampire more. Healing + bleed will be a crazy combo in Adventures
My top 8 are Pyromancer, Ninja, Treant, Seraph, Paladin, Tactician, Gunslinger, Artificer.
I need to play more Artificer. I'm loving Treant spirits so, I'll prob dig him a lot too
Love the video. I just bought season 1 rerolled and Season 2. Was looking for a video on the characters and what they do. Would love to see your take on the other 8 characters.
I will return to some Dice Throne content soon! People keep asking for the worst 8 but now with Marvel coming, I’ve gotta act fast I guess hah
I couldn't agree more on your number two. The thief is so bad and I hate him so much that I would also put him at number two. My wife and I played a single elimination game of all 14 characters (28 games) pre-rerolled.

I'm starting to feel that way about Ninja too - delayed poison is insane. I mostly play with my wife too, and she does not appreciate that haha
Wait board games AND a Coheed and Cambria shirt? I might have to stay.
You have great taste... You may stay as long as you want. Just bring your own dice.
No paladin :(
Paladin's passive imo is severely underrated, especially the upgrade
:[ he's too generic for my taste. Same with Barbarian, Moon Elf. Very useful though. Paladin is probably great for solo Adventures
@@Restinpeace5 paladins upgraded passive is honestly so good. but i can see where the generic feel comes in. rn thief is probly my number 1.
Amazing video. You have more than earned my sub + like
This made my day, honestly. One of the best compliments. Hope to keep you coming back!!
Great video. Totally agree with monk
FINALLY. You’re the first person I’ve ever run into who believes in the power of Chi.
I’ve been playing solo DT Adventures a lot lately and since Chi can reduce undefendable damage too… Monk is OP
@@MisterBoardGamer 100%. Only one is close, Paladin, in my personal opinion.
@@demetriparker5396 Paladin has some awesome moves, it’s just my chosen class in most games so I try to avoid him in DT
Question so for the upgrade attacks that have another attack underneath do you do both attacks is it just another attack your lol able to do now?
You choose one of the actions! Usually it’s the upgraded version of the attack that gives you more options.
i thought the same thing about shadow thief. every time i gain shadows off of DEFENSE i love to say ''playtest? what playtest?''
lately ive taken a break from the thief to mess around with paladin. (love characters who generate massive amounts of cp) i gotta say, the paladin seems like a solid character with a solid defense and passive.
my next investment might be the tactician because his kit seems like one id vibe pretty hard with. anyone here have an opinion on tactician?
Tactician is fun & complicated. But he has some serious firepower. Very serious 🧐 💣
I want to like Huntress, but I just can’t seem to do well with her. You’d think with the extra health with Nyra, would allow for extra time to wear down your opponent, but I just keep losing with her.

Is this first edition or reroll review?
Re-Rolled! (Good question.)
I have a hard time using the vampire lord. She feels off.
She can be pretty scary when you know your opponent can’t remove a status effect (bleed). It can be a slow burn but she leeches off of people great 🩸
Why is Samurai in your top 8? It feels like hes one of the weakest characters because of his not so great defense and status effects.
I haven't played with the samurai Myself yet, but it sounds like he has a lot of counter Attacks.
Which means you want to get those cards in your hand as quick as possible, to be able Inflict maximum damage when he's be attacked.

Any word on season 3 . I would love to see a demon type and a robot type. Thanks for the list

Poor pyromancer…
She did it to herself. NO DEFENSE
wow you'd think that a class whose mechanics revolve around SP would have increased SP cost on their class cards to compensate for their SP gaining abilities, crazy.
U gunna update this list with Marvel? ...ofcourse u are.
I did not back the Marvel collab 🥸 I may grab a couple of them later but, owning 16 original characters had me like, “Be strong. Save your money…”
@@MisterBoardGamer I hear ya, I was on the fence too. Ended up waiting for retail....matter fact I still play my 4 original print n play characters.
