  • Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 has nearly 50 playable characters in the game. My goal for this video is to rank and review all of them with the communities help. Members of Discord, Reddit, and TH-cam were asked to vote for the 5 best and worst characters in the game. I then counted all of the votes and combined the results into this ranking video. This is technically the second part of a two part series. We did the first half in the last video, which covered ranks 46-24:
    • All Characters Ranked ...
    Now we're working our way through ranks 23-1 to determine who the community deems the best character/s in the game. Thank you to everyone who participated in voting!

      I don't think that would work on harder difficulties though. it's actually quite a hard game that requires some micro management of your energy bars and using the right moves to strip armour, stagger and drain HP and stuff. I realised pretty soon that even on the base difficulty, some of the bosses are really quite hard unless you use the right moves at the right time.
      on the casual difficulty it doesn't matter so much, but even still it's not the easiest thing in the world, some encounters yeah, but others are still pretty demanding.

      I think we just need another character that can provide EP as much as she does to shake up the meta. Like making Strange's heal to also regenerate EP while he spends his own. Like a different take on team-wide EP regen, in this case, Strange not benefitting.

      Phoenix is broken! That's cannon! Lol she's supposed to be all powerful. Hands down one of the most powerful beings in all of Marvel. She was written that way. That's why whoever is playing host to Phoenix can die like Jean Grey. I get the gaming side of it, but the being known as Phoenix is immortal and was simply written to be a god.

    I have a team of Miles, Captain America, Wolverine, and Black Panther. They all have great synergy and literally cuts down bosses at ease. After putting down High Voltage Lines everyone gets lighning attributes. While it doesn't do alot of damage I noticed that it does help drain stagger bars and gets rid of lots of enemies. All four of them are just super fun to play too.

    I like the list that you and the community made, some characters I question why they are so low or high like Punisher,Ghost Rider,Venom,Elektra and Loki are ones that first to come to mind. Maybe it probably that I made a tier list of my own and I think with characters with a team, single, synergy, extreme attacks and boss fights. But my tier list own have 1-26 since some characters I think equal to one another. And little tip with Blade, when charge up 1 of his abilities you can hold the button down and then get another finger to press 1 of the ability button that ability would takeover and still keep the charge, it doesn't matter if it level 1 or at level 3.

Very much possibly the highest dps in the game. Give it a shot. Drop laser, walk into it, pop shield, it’ll bounce off cable and anyone else who can synergize. enemies in between you will get absolutely fried.

      @Robodob0 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@Cyke101 Wolverine's definitely a solid character in MUA3, but Black Panther's a bit above the meta in this game. His Vibranium Slash (used alone, not synergized) is ridiculously overpowered that it can shred stagger bars due to so many hits, and he is the only character that can soft-stagger lock even a Lv180 Dark Phoenix if backed up by your own Phoenix's Cleansing Fire.
      I can only assume the multi-hit stagger damage is a bug, but for now, we take as it is.
      That said, his kit isnt the best, but with an overpowered skill plus a safeguard synergy which renders him invulnerable for the duration, makes him one of the best characters in MUA3.
      Wolverine on the other hand, is I think one of the most well balanced, high to top tier character in the game.

    Cable is tricky. So much so I didn't expected him to be on the higher end of the list. But he is really cool and very fun to use. He is a more strategic character than most.
    I didn't expect to see Blade ranked this high. I don't see people playing as him online at all. He is great though.
    Cap is a great team player, unsurprisingly. I agree. And very accurate to the character too. Using his shield to reflect boss attacks feels so satisfying. And powering up teammates a fantastic ability no one else possesses in the game.
    Hulk. Best tank in the game is in the top 10, nice!
    Thor is easily one of the best characters in the game. So even though he is high, he should be even higher, imo.
    Cyclops is an energy beast, so no surprise to see him so high on the list. All his abilities are extremely helpful in different ways and situations.
    Star-Lord. As long as you keep your distance and keep yourself mobile,
    he is amazing. Best elemental character in the game, imo.
    Wolverine and Panther are stagger bar killers, so no surprise to see them both ranked this high either.
    Phoenix at #1 is not surprising. She is a monster. She has poor defense stats, but as long as you have good evasiveness, you will be a monster on the battlefield. All of her moves are fire, so enhancing her with iso-8 is super easy and effective. Her gigantic EP recovering ring of fire and her auto revive are insane. Her health is not affected by the Phoenix Force upgrade in Danger Room either. She is SO good!
    Great vid, Nerdy! You put a lot of work into this couple of poll videos and it shows. Not only with the poll itself, but with your input on every single character as well. Keep up the good work!

      Phoenix is no surprise at all. I’ve done two separate polls now, and she’s been number 1 in both. That energy ring alone would’ve put her at number 1 I think

The Punisher's sniper attack is very usefull if done synergized cause it does a good damage and travels the scenario, piercing enemyes and done damage until it reaches the end of the screen. He cold be very fun to play since the most of his atacks sends him back, putting Punisher safe of the range oenoany knockback.

      So yes and no. Your first playthrough you could use the dlc characters towards the end. For example, you have to beat chapter 5 before you unlock the “rise of Phoenix” dlc where you unlock the dlc xmen.
