​@@opbattleaxe8744isn't the Yato is literally the fire emblem

[@opbattleaxe8744]

@@legendofsonic3979 the fire emblem itself is just a name label and not much else, it’s typically what’s holding or defeating the big bad. Binding shield was the fire emblem, the imperial seal, and lehran’s medallion I don’t recall any (aside from the shield) being particularly powerful unless you are counting the ability to seal away stuff probably won’t help much in a scrap (Yato would of course but (correct me if I’m wrong) I don’t think it grants much more lore wise other than being the apex weapon of the group) Funny we mention apex weapon because the binding blade is kind of in a league of its own. It’s got a similar start like the fates weapons. The elibe super weapons were made to help humans combat dragons. These 8 weapons were so strong that the side effect of simply using them to fight f*cked with magic energy on a universal scale it broke the laws of physics causing the ending winter (seasons went crazy and climate was erratic) The magical devastation was so bad that dragons in that game were manaketes literally because we robbed so much magic from the universe in that fight they couldn’t maintain their dragon forms. The binding blade is stated to be stronger than the legendary weapons of elibe *combined* luckily its power has weakened over time. Every time it swings imagine a Mini nuclear explosion because that’s literally what happens. It also doesn’t matter how strong you are. Roy in his game was a joke, a literal kid with terrible stats that had to be carried. Once he got his hand on that sword everything changed. Lorewise if you played blazing the elibe super weapons are said to have a mind of their own (likely their former wielders) so promotion Roy was actually his sword on autopilot running off the skills of Hartmut (a legendary warrior) and he’s suddenly pretty much the best unit in the game. For a weapon being stronger? Maybe Naga Tome? Loptous? Still Roy’s weapon is incredibly stacked.

[@samkeiser9776]

@@legendofsonic3979the fire emblem is just the series namesake it’s not like the most powerful thing in the lore. It grants wishes in the archenea games sure, but the Falchion is probably equally important in the games its in.

Kirby actually has two canon heights and changes between them when the context of the game he’s in calls for it. In forgotten land he’s the height of a small child give or take but in Dream Buffet Kirby is around 8-9 strawberries tall in the opening cutscene and strawberries are roughly an inch big meaning Kirby is 8-9 inches tall. Kirby is generally not 8-9 inches tall, but there are occasions where he is, and that’s weird.

Notable swords from other franchises: Mario: In Mario RPG, Exor is a giant, living sword. It's not one that Mario necessarily wields, but it's a sword in a Mario game, at least. Pit/Dark Pit: They're more _blades_ than _swords,_ but their bows are still notable. Snake: He didn't wield it himself, but Raiden has the HF Blade/Murasama. Pokemon Trainer: Depends on if you want to count other Pokemon. Sonic: I'm not joking, and some of you may remember, but Sonic and the Black Knight was a thing. Also, Sonic Frontiers. Caliburn/Excalibur is a sword with a face that later loses it and gets a godly aura that's *also* a sword around it. Not a bad sword. Villager: Can technically own the Master Sword, but it's already listed several times already, sooooooo Mega Man: You can't *not* mention the Z-Saber. While you might say "Hey, that's Zero's sword!" and be technically right, it's worth noting that Mega Man X has wielded it as well, and he is essentially just an upgraded Mega Man. Greninja: how did you miss him he literally uses water swords Palutena: It's worth noting that Kid Icarus has other weapons that are very sword-like, but aren't as notable due to there being too many to consider. Bayonetta: A similar case to Kid Icarus, where she definitely has some swords and sword-like weapons, but are moreso for quantity than quality. Inkling: There's actually a weapon called the "Splatana", which is fairly self explanatory. Simon/Richter: The Valmanway, wielded by Alucard, is a notable weapon, being the best out of many in their series. Isabelle: More on Animal Crossing, there's actually a few sword furniture items available, and even one equippable for the player, being the sword in a scabbard. So it's surprisingly not off the table for Animal Crossing characters to be wielding a sword. Just hope that you don't find Isabelle with one. Joker: "Lemme see what you have!" "A knife!" "NO!" Banjo & Kazooie: The series was originally going to be "Dream: Land of Giants", featuring Edson, who wielded a sword. Sora: There are several different keyblades available to Sora, though they all go along similar, *goofy* lines, plus occasionally being a little over the top. Aside from a few other things like other equippable swords in other games (Zelda's Fierce Deity Sword, Minecraft's Netherite Sword plus enchantments, Fire Emblem and other franchises' different equippable swords), there isn't much else to say. Definitely some notable ones here that could've been mentioned, though. _..seriously though, how did you miss greninja? he was literally designed for smash, and had swords/kunais in his design, and they're even counted as swords in smash's damage types, and yet you leave him out like he's just a wet shiek. you will regret this day, TCNick3._

The reason why the Ragnell sword looks like that is because it's meant to be heavy, it also has a twin sword that looks the same except that one is silver. I thought it would go in A tier at least.

[@GumshoeClassic]

While I can see the case for not taking lore and backstory into account when it comes to rating, I think specifically for the designs it should be looked at nonetheless. The Master Sword is improved immensely by the iconography worked into it for example, and Pyra's sword having a flaming blade is a very neat way to alude to other things in the series, namely the similarities between Aegises and Monados as well as her fire ultimately just being the residual energy from Mythras light. Essentially what I'm saying is, especially when it comes to symbols and the like, the background is what makes that design or detail cool, because it gives it meaning. The dragon insignia is cool because it resembles a dragon and dragons are cool. But if you don't know what a dragon is, that symbol can look like just a bunch of lines. The same applies to the Triforce.

[@playfulgoddess3711]

That last one and byleth are sex, the dragon design, and the whip sword is too quirky, they have me

[@crimsonstormsurge]

The xenoblade swords (all 3) and the buster sword are peak

[@chocmilk]

I will die on the hill that the only reason that Sword of the Creator got gatekept by Masamune was because it wasn't in its orange powered state.

[@KKwinner123]

Definitely agree with editor Tam here, judging by look and coolness, holding a bright blocky blue sword doesn't seem at all cool and all the other Minecraft ones are the exact same tier for me, which is D Also, "I'm sorry for what I have to do to the Master Sword" *puts it in S*

[@SomeoneAtsAreDumb]

2:14 I am dying, bro things cutter is a sword, that's a boomerang blade

[@Daile0303]

Mii sword fighter has a lot of swords to choose

[@fearlessleader889]

Not to mention, the Minecraft swords would be massively lower tier if you factor in lore.

[@totygarawy1021]

“It reminds me of the Middle East” “shows Egypt”

[@orangeweegee]

love to see smash content from nick especially smash content that doesn't include smash content

[@FananaGaming]

Love how no realizes that nick forgot the pit swords.

[@catchercrawley]

Monado being what Nick thinks about when he thinks sex was actually hilarious

[@limerplaz8208]

This is really what i needed in my life! Thank you Nick.

[@parzival-bo]

Yeah, Ragnell with the rounder tip is dumb, it's supposed to be a more angular diamond-shaped head which honestly works _so_ much better.

[@treecko3453]

Levin sword beneath iron sword??? If a perk of monado is light saber, a perk of levin sword is lightning slinger 😭

[@sinteleon]

but we're not counting the perks. The monado is just that good even without needing to talk about perks.

[@Lucascom-ui4sp]

Nick saying that the Galaxia isn't intimidating Random Mf holding a knife that looks like that

[@Xenowolf8]

Monado at the top is the only correct answer

[@ImPrettySureThisIsMax]

The manado has a secret art called “expand”

[@angeldude101]

Finally. A tier list I've actually been wanting to see. The Key Blade is not a sword. That is an _axe!_ Similarly, Pyra's sword isn't really a sword either. It's a vaguely sword-shaped flamethrower.

[@robmacher3253]

I'd call it a wand or staff sooner then a sword or an axe. Think about it: it's a big blunt stick that you can cast magic from, that's obviously a wand or staff.

[@TrueReverse74]

The keyblade is not an axe, how did you come to that conclusion? It's a sword that cuts what it wants to. It functions as a sword, you fight with it as a sword, the only thing that it doesn't have that a sword does is the physical appearance.

[@GrandAdmiralGonk]

Ain't no way he put Kirby's rocket ship sword so high, that thing looks goofy

[@ivoschossow8164]

The editor represented all of us with your opinions on the Minecraft swords.

[@twixthehyena]

My man really said the Levin sword loses in coolness against a damn Minecraft sword

[@hyl1an]

I will take that Master Sword rating, its not too flashy but still clean

[@Valderami]

Hot Take: If Toon Links Kokiri Sword which is a Dagger counted, then Joker's knife should count as well

[@gagejoseph91]

"I would look stupid holding [the keyblade] as a soldier in an army." >Puts a pixel sword in S tier >Puts the goofy-ass-looking Monado ABOVE THE BUSTER SWORD

[@bananaBread16]

Love seeing more unique stuff from Nick. I know he's done tier lists in the past but not like one where he just says, I like this one because I just do. W

[@Skywalker1995]

You should rate other Final Fantasy Swords, you will like them just as much

[@funnymannotfunny]

If you really think about how the Minecraft weaponry translates to real life, a sword with a serrated blade is pretty cool since it’s basically a chainsaw blade on a handle

[@antonyc.7173]

I think the serrated aspect is just a limitation of the art style.

[@ragedump]

I'd like to see Shadiversity's take, even though he's talked about a few of these individually. So many of these aren't "clean", but are in fact mall ninja weapons. I bet Marth's sword and the DQ8 sword would rank toward the very top since they have a lot of practicality and subtle style. Mythra's sword would be impossible to swing around without poking yourself with it. Shulk's may stay up there due to being a lightsaber, depending how heavy the big red frame is. Byleth's sword would be really great if it didn't turn into a whip, there's no way anyone could actually swing it around without killing themselves. Plus if you actually did hit someone with it, the whole thing would tangle up on itself and be totally useless. IDK what the appeal is on any of the minecraft weapons, but they're just basic short swords with a swapped palette. Plus you'd look like a goofy kid holding up a pixelated sword. Easy F tier, right next to the Keyblade, Kirby's swords, and young Link's swords.

[@h3r01cviii5]

ah yes, i too have heard of the SEX tier S - Super E - Epic X - Xenoblade

[@toyota4725]

I love sword tier

[@PrimalAspid]

Ranking every character PLEASE MAKE THIS TIER LIST

[@powerguy3976]

0:03 pit & dark pit:

[@shadows_bloodedge_78]

@powerguy3976 that counts more as two spears that connect to make a double-sided spear / bow (like darth maul's lightsaber in Star War)

[@mr_pity1563]

I can understand for Cloud's sword being cool kinda, but cmon, anyone would look completely dumb with a sword as big as Sephiroth's one, it hurts a bit that it's the gatekeeper. And it directly hurts my soul to see all those minecraft swords so high. In no world you'd look cool with that. Thank you editor to be there for us, the real hero here. (Fun video, and despite me complaining, I mostly agree. Thanks.)

[@tannermals4441]

You should do a tier list on the assist trophies

[@FectoElfilis]

The fact that he did Kirby's up b is hilarious to me because it's actually not a sword at all, it's a boomerang blade that detaches from a hat. Also I know lore isn't talked about in the tier list, but the Ultra Sword also grows with power so the more strength you use, the bigger and more powerful the sword gets.

[@wannabememelord4607]

Mythra's sword not being activated robs it of half of its coolness. Look at it with the blade turned on and tell me that isn't epic. Also, look at the Monado's second form. That thing SLAPS.

[@DrDubMemes]

You gotta think, those Minecraft swords have super thick blades. Make that out of diamonds and you can see why it’s an easy S tier. It’s got that chopping power like the Buster sword

[@kingofgameing0]

the editor does not understand how cool things made of cubes are

[@ehx3419]

6:30 Incorrect. This is a Knight's Claymore, my friend. Prior to Ultimate (which took some BotW inspiration with Link as well), Ganondorf was using a different sword, namely the Sword of Six Sages, and he only used it in a taunt and an alternative Special Move. Edit: Nevermind. It's similar to a Knight's Claymore, but more ornamented. Still, I'd say Knight's Claymore is the most correct name we have.

[@BorisBrigadeDoesStuff]

10:58 Well Pyra and mythra are swords
