Chewbacca in D tier is crazy

Wow, I really don’t agree with many of these picks at all. But that’s the fun fun of tier lists. Different opinions. We do agree on Vader standing firmly in the S-tier, but who doesn’t?

Iden in f is crazy...

[@Berlinbower]

Yeah i think its because he just hates iden alot but tbh i view her in a similar light to palpatine as they're both annoying to fight while playing certain as characters, however i personally have a good time on them. Maybe its because i always win while playing them, but i gotta say not being a spammy iden and using her sniper elevates the gameplay a ton Her sniper ability is also underrated. It does solid damage and goes through block which essentially makes her a better chewie

[@BlakKlaa2]

Iden S tier

[@SubjugatorOfTheGym10557]

The game changes when u use her as a sniper, she can one shot nearly everyone with her sniper except heroes and maybe enforcers and if u time it correctly, u can destroy an interceptor ship one shot. I tried her on big maps and boy did I have fun…

[@isaacholston4241]

Idena Versio should at least be B tier or A tier because of that damn secondary fire that can be spammed and can even damage through shields 😂 It doesn't really have much of a cool down either.

[@justinwhite5721]

Chewie in HvV is for sure A, maybe S depending on your teammates

Lando and his smoke grenade are an underrated tool against the swing spamming meta that most average Bf2 HvV players play For those who dont know the smoke grenade disables the saberlock tracking so saber heroes cant just swing spam and have the their attacks autotrack you despite you dodging around

The problem with Chewie is that he is very difficult to learn compared to other blaster heroes, I had a hard time learning how he is played but I eventually came a chewbacca main xD it’s hard to learn but becomes a beast once you learn his play style.

[@superiorgaming9399]

Kind of a wild list, but I respect it. Here's my tier list: S (OP): Darth Vader A (Amazing): Emperor Palpatine, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Princess Liea, Kylo Ren, Han Solo, Count Dooku, Genereal Grevious, Rey B (Good): Iden Versio, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Maul C (Meh): Yoda, Captain Phasma, Boba Fett, Chewbacca, BB-8, Finn, Bossk D (Bad): Lando Calrissian, BB-9E F (Garbage): No one I do play certain characters much more than others, specifically Han, but overall, I feel like I've played each character a decent amount in HVV to get a good feel for how good they really are.

[@jarmoliebrand2005]

Am I the only one who made hero/reinforcement concepts for themselves. Imagining what the stats, abilities, star cards, emotes and appearances would be? I love doing that but it makes me sad that a lot of character didn’t make the cut.

[@DeadByAfternoon]

Agreed. There’d be so much potential for new characters

[@jarmoliebrand2005]

I have a note on my iPad with so many of them. Some heroes like Ahsoka and Ventress (still pissed we would’ve gotten them after Scarif if the support hadn’t been cancelled), but also Pre Vizsla, Ezra Bridger and Pong Krell. I like trying to make their abilities gel wel together and I like allowing for my star cards to really change the playstyle of a hero, or make one specific ability pretty good. As for reinforcements, I added the ‘guard’ (Jedi temple guard, Magnaguard, Honour Guard, Royal Guard and Praetorian Guard) and ‘sniper’ (clone sniper, sniper droideka, shadow trooper, bothan spy) class. Even thought of some vehicles.

[@sicksadworld765]

S tier: Darth Vader, Luke, Han Solo, Grievous A tier: Count Dooku, Boba Fett, Leia, Anakin, Darth Maul, Kylo Ren, Palpatine B tier: Bossk, Obi Wan, Rey, Iden C tier: Yoda, Lando, Chewbacca, BB8 Free kills: Finn, Phasma, BB9E Phasma is super situational but even if the player know what he’s doing but is not surrounded by other villains just switch to Anakin, pull her away from her droid and she’s cooked No matter how good you are, Phasma only performs well when your team is either amazing or just sticks together/camps with ur droid

[@dasbose9999]

Nah Rey and Leah are not very strong

[@Checkmylightsabercollection]

I would put Yoda at b just my opinion though

[@laslax2019]

Phasma is the best blaster villain vs lightsabers. Mainly, the drone removes the hopes and dreams of anyone trying to get close to her because she can deploy it whenever she wants (including mid roll). If you know how to roll force abilities it gets stupid on how much she can get away with. Even in a situation where she's away from her drone she can just out DPS lightsabers.

Isn’t Chewbacca literally designed for HvV? I’ve never seen anyone using him in trooper modes lol

[@dinislopes5671]

Grievous below boba is outrageous

[@StormTrooperbadaim]

you're just a Gun Player

[@jarmoliebrand2005]

My ranking: 22. Boba Fett 21. Finn 20. Captain Phasma 19. BB-9E 18. Chewbacca 17. Lando 16. Han Solo 15. Leia Organa 14. BB-8 13. Yoda 12. Iden Versio 11. Darth Maul 10. Bossk 9. Rey 8. Kylo Ren 7. General Grievous 6. Anakin Skywalker 5. Luke Skywalker 4. Emperor Palpatine 3. Count Dooku 2. Obi-Wan Kenobi 1. Darth Vader (All time best: Launch Anakin. What was Dice thinking?) I gave each hero a long explanation but YT crashed and I didn’t copy what I had typed down… I feel bad now. I have a big lightsaber bias. I don’t like playing with blaster heroes much. And the balls are underrated. I think everyone can deduce character strengths and weaknesses by themselves (apart from Vader, he has no weaknesses). All characters are good in their own right and in the right hands. Some heroes are really dependant on good cooperation. The lost is based on HvV, Hero Showdown and trooper modes.

[@DeadByAfternoon]

I love it! I get having a bias, because lightsabers can be much more fun than a blaster hero. I like to pick whatever the team needs or what counters the enemies. I’m still learning the combat techniques with lightsabers which is why some of them are lower than others

Boba Fett being dead last is insane

[@Solomon_C]

@@jarmoliebrand2005 Vader's weaknesses are his low attacking stamina, slow speed, lack of an evasive ability and poor stamina regen. Ofc his other strengths more than make up for it but still

[@Solomon_C]

@@jarmoliebrand2005 I'll also say the following: 1. Spamakin > Luke imo. The cards All Of Them + Raw Strength = 270 damage combo without any basic attacks included. If you include basics and even Passionate Strike, the numbers well exceed 600. Luke has no such combos. Not to mention Luke has less health, less regen, and less stamina. 2. You are sleeping on Han Solo, my friend. He shreds enemies sooooo hard

[@grandstasis1878]

Imo both Finn and Yoda are at the bottom of the list. Finn is just too heavily reliant on his team and gets singled out a lot. He’s basically a free kill if he doesn’t have all his teammates with him which is pretty much most of HvV. Yoda is just… I can’t even come up with a proper word for him… he can get overwhelmed really easily, his attacks are way too slow and his abilities leave him far too open to other attacks. Short story, but did you know his dash was never supposed to go through blocks? it was a glitch the whole time which is why in one update (when battlefront still had support) his ability to dash through blocks disappeared completely. When people asked why Dice got rid of that feature, Dice didn’t even know Yoda was able to do that and said it was a bug. Of course in the update after that they brought that feature back and made it official because it’s what MAJORLY helped give Yoda an advantage, but the fact that it was a glitch since the launch of the game makes me wonder… if that glitch never existed… would Yoda even be used at all??

[@DeadByAfternoon]

I would say without his dash doing damage through block, he’d be the last pick for anyone since he’d be so weak.

[@PathFind13]

I'd say bosssk is better than boba, especially for hvh

[@nwoyelawshea2722]

I wish they had the mandalorian on here I’ll main him

[@DeadByAfternoon]

[@Lego_darth_maul]

Only thing I disagree with is leia above Han boba and bossk. Sure she’s strong but she stands no chance against a somewhat competent vader Kylo or greivous in a 1 on 1. Han has 2 knockdown, bossk has insane hops and some op abilities and boba can just fly away. Leia is useless in a 1 on 1 against a saber character

[@LeeEverett1]

Vader, Palps, Anakin, and Iden are all S tier for me. A good player with any of those characters can impact the entire match

[@stevensupaz244]

Would have enjoyed a more objective tier list with then a subjective (second list) as for preference. The "tier" list was a bit confusing as you focused on them individually a lot while also trying to bring it back to HvV which seemed to not stick to one type of list (aside from the personal preference to enjoy play). I've played the game for years on PC and console and have a few max characters (combined consoles/pc would be much more). For a tier list for strictly HvV trying to coordinate a good team (in coordination with others' picks) I can definitely see this being around 90% accurate. I am an Iden main as well as Vader, so I know too well she is in A or S tier. When having Vader in a tier the problem is, he is almost 2 tiers above the next tier. So I would maybe just have a S+ tier? Leia can be defended against just holding block (while reflecting), so against good players she should die a lot when in many 2v1 or 1v1 scenarios.

[@EpicthedogYT]

How the fuck could you put Finn above Dooku. You can team wipe way easier with Dooku and had way more movemrnt

[@PathFind13]

Chewie is in B-A tier for me, pretty strong generally

[@purnnthan]

チューイは耐久力あるし、フェリアスの高火力、爆弾が強いからBよりのC。フィンは連隊行動が必須なのとエイムが相当上手くないと強さを発揮出来ないからBよりのC。ルークは機動力エグいし、プッシュで味方のフォロー、リパルスもグラウンドゼロあれば敵の体力回復阻止、高まる力での全セーバーキャラで飛び抜けた火力、スタミナ増強カード、高まる力との併用で存分に暴れられるからアナキンよりも確実に強い。ルークはSでレイアとほぼ同等かそれ以下ぐらい。モールは機動力高いし、スキルで味方のフォローができるが肝心の体力が700で体力回復も普通で立ち回りが重要になってるくるキャラで扱いが難しいからファズマより強いCやな。9Eはサポートに徹するキャラで表彰台にも乗りづらく以外と過小評価されてるが実際敵対するとほんまに厄介なキャラ。味方サポートに長けてて立ち回りが上手かったりすると強いし、居て助かる存在になる。スキルの煙幕で敵から逃げる事が出来るし、敵を場外に落とせる能力もあるからファズマと同等のCだな。アイデンは投稿主の好き嫌いでFになってると思うのだがセカンダリーがセーバーガード貫通からのビリビリドロイドスキルで750体力キャラはゴリ押しできるから評価はボバと同等かそれ以下のA。アナキンはスキルが非常に優秀だがグリーヴァスの敵陣営を潰せる能力とブラスター狩りに長けているスキルが備わっていて、裏技のバニーホップ攻撃が出来れば異常な高火力でブラスターキャラは特に一瞬で体力を削れるからアナキンより上。それにダメージ軽減や体力増強などカードが非常に優秀でアナキンよりは確実に上だからアナキンの位置とグリーヴァスの位置は反対だな。レンもスキルが非常に優秀で味方の援護が出来、フレンジーでのラストの貫通も強力だからAのフィンの位置に来るだろう。ドゥークーはセーバーキャラにとても強く、ブラスターキャラには弱いがフォースビリビリと合わせると自前の高火力でゴリ押す事が出来、ヨーダより上のCだな。特にドゥークーはパリィ、フックスイングが出来れば初心者相手に速攻削れたり、奇襲で背面攻撃が刺さると1撃でもとんでもない火力が刺さる。

[@VirginStarrrrr]

This list is definitely making me feel better that I don't main almost any top tiers besides grievous. But I'd honestly say that oit of all of the characters, the balls are rated rather lowly. The reason I say this is because when they're with other heroes (say in HVV or various other scenarios.) They absolutely counter basically everyone besides like, palpatine, vader, and anyone near a leia. They're little combo machines that let your other teammates shred the other heroes while they're stunned. Which is wht I'd at least move BB8 up to high B- low A and BB9-E to like, Mid B or so. As BB8's tether hook is bullshit when it comes to stunning capability.

[@DeadByAfternoon]

I agree. It was hard to place the balls so low cause I think they’re both very strong and I enjoy playing with them. In terms of raw damage and performance by themselves I think they’re beaten by alot of other heroes

[@republicbeachtrooper954]

iden is great nice video

[@Jordblitz]

I agree with the majority of these choices, like very much so. However, I think you have overated Maul and Leia by 1 tier each. Maul simply has too little health, and does too little damage. His abilities are fine, but he lacks any way to deal damage quickly besides getting up behind someone and swinging multiple times. Something far easier said than done. His saber throw really does not do much damage, and leaves him completely vulnerable. His choke does very little damage, leaves you completely vulnerable, and typically does not allow for follow up attacks for you or your team. Finally, his spin attack is decent, but really does not do much damage. All around, he does very little damage and has low health. Not a good combo. Leia is more interesting. She is indeed very strong, but the fact that Vader is an absolute counter to her, makes her not S tier. Both Han and Chewy have ways if at least holding their own against Vader for awhile, whereas Leia, without any 3rd dodge, ability to damage through blocks (without perfectly thrown grenades) and no knockdown, makes her an easy kill any time Vader is near. Even worse, a way leia counters the other saber heroes (by draining their stamina quickly with the e-11) doesn't work against Vader, as he simply has too much stamina. If Vader wasn't used all the time, then it wouldn't matter as much. But Vader is used every match, meaning the fact that he is a hard counter to Leia, makes Leia much worse. In very confident that Leia is middle of A tier, and Maul is top of C tier.
