Discussion Alvarez Mages Power Rate - [FINISHED]

[The President]

Yep, can't say I agree with this list at all except for the placements of the top 4 (even then, the scores are still off). Can't wait to have to rank Erza so excited

This explains how I felt going into this and my transition into what I am now.

 

[Seven777]

Top 3 went as expected, which is a very good thing. Seeing August number 1 in this thread just gets me more hyped to see him in action. And just look at thats average, damn near perfect.

This was an excellent thread, im kinda bummed that its over.

Duuuudeeee I'm having the same feelings

I'm so fucking hyped for August (ALTHOUGH considering how this is going he might be trolled too ) though at this point, even if he is trolled, I'll be damn happy if it's with a bang because that'll be extremely great compared to what we've been receiving

August deserves his rightful number 1 position.

And damn dude @BluePegasus you seriously got me pumped for this, great job Can't wait for the Ishgar one

 

[Plutogrim]

That was predictable I knew August will be number 1.

I'll make sure I participate on the Ishgar ranking.

 

[Takuan]

Same thing for Ishgar?! Damn im hyped !!
That's going to be interesting, i actually think it will be extremely hard for me place people. We'll see how it turns out.

Oho look at that difference between August (9.94) and Irene (8.85) and how many people gave him 10. It's almost perfect, 9.94.

My scores (if anyone interested haha) actually: August and Irene 10, Larcade and DiMaria 9, the others 8, Neinhart 7. I know that's not right if we compare one Spriggan to the others, yeah. I was just too generous haha (and there was a misunderstanding as well).

Personally I am more interested in this Spriggan rating than the Ishgar one, but I will still be participating

 

[Doughboy]

Good thread fam, everything came out mostly for the best. S12 ranking (going by the power ranking thread) makes sense even if I would maybe switch Bloodman and Brandish's spots.

Top tier: August, Irene, Larcade
High tier: Dimaria, Bloodman (how lol), God Serena
Mid tier: Brandish, Invel, Wall
Low tier: Jacob (still triggered), Ajeel, Neinhart

I'm happy people gave Dimaria the respeck she deserved. This woman is like Ultear, Erza, and Mira in one hot body. Bae is bae. Ishgar ranking will be interesting.

 

[Brandish μ]

Thanks a lot @BluePegasus for making a fun thread, and also for your work doing the write-ups placings each day (and on time) which made it all the more effective.

I don't agree with the spread of some of the placings, rather than the order. Even though Wall and Serena are 5th and 6th to me they could just be regular Spriggans, DiMaria too. I could have given those 9 all 1's in retrospect - that would've been better. Neinhart being so below 11th, DiMaria being so close to 3rd, and Irene being too far from 1st are probably where I disagree the most... since that goes against the portrayal the most.

 

[Spirit]

Why even bother lol. This was so predictable

But even so, nice work Hibiki!
You certainly engaged people.

 

[Arjuna]

Well great that August got the first place.

Top 3 are perfect.

 

[Jko]

What tf @Zelefomavis? Why the heck would you give Irene a 1?

Obvious is obvious, but not seeing August beating Irene w/o DS magic.

 

[Arjuna]

Well Jko as people voted this before seeing Irene's Dragon form and seeing Irene's below average performance against Erza and Wendy so August won.

 

[Zelefomavis]

What tf @Zelefomavis? Why the heck would you give Irene a 1?

Obvious is obvious, but not seeing August beating Irene w/o DS magic.

The last chapters were not out, I did not know what to give her because her feats were so contradicting, and then i was well I don't want to wasge my time trying ro judge, her fight with erza did not wow me at all her performance against Erza was worst than Ajeel's so....
So bam 0 for her (yeah I gave her 0 and it was not allowed so It became a 1).

I wonder, when you guys said "Brandish is X tier Spriggan", "Bradman is Y tier Spriggan", did you take Brandish's self-healing ability and Bradman's last resort move "Let's go to the underworld together" into consideration?

 

[Ebony Maw]

Thanks a lot for hosting this @BluePegasus, it was awesome! Can't wait for the Ishgar rankings...

Good points.

I hadn't actually thought about that for Brandish, that's a pretty useful skill to have. That said, I'm not sure how much it would help with the top-tiers nukes or some of the hax the other Spriggans have.

As for Bradman, I considered it but it's not really a massive pro considering that he has to be dying to use it. I mean, it's useful because he at least has some potential to draw even with his betters, but the requirement of death kinda skews it IMO.

Honestly, I did consider Bloodman's suicidal technique, but it wasn't exactly a game changer for me, in this case. I gave Bloodman a relatively high score anyways, but the suicidal technique was not a significant factor in my judgement.

That's because.. although it is a good feat in itself, it does cancel out with the fact that Bloodman has to die himself. It's similar to Iced Shell in that regard.


But, I will also be honest and say that I did not take Brandish's self-healing ability into account. I assumed that Brandish has relatively low durability compared to her peers here.

So even though she could regenerate to a certain extent, I think that her stats will still ultimately cause her to get defeated soon enough. Since her defense is low, I can see her taking way too much damage.. which will prevent her from achieving a higher rank.

 

[Brandish μ]

Brandish self heal - assuming it can be done - is useless against an attack of DiMaria's strength. So something that Ajeel, August and Irene were able to continue from is something that Brandish seemingly can't. So it's utility is conditional to how bad she's hurt. I did not include this at all.

Bloodman's suicide move didn't factor in for me.

I thought she purposely didn't heal herself thinking she should die and afterwards confirmed to hesitate in doing so. Not to mention she did shrunk Mira's wound from August attack nor noted the limits when it comes to altering wounds sizes so....

Naw, it was just a deep flesh wound which is why should couldn't heal it immediately. She was just talking in rhetoric when she said that, saying she was confused.

 

[Laxus chan-yo]

This is the one true list mang ():

1. August - 10

2. Eileen - 9
