(reading your comment again, you don't seem to know cursed enemies will give Anubis stats if they die)

As for the 'fine line' yes, Anubis probably wouldn't win if you fought him 5 seconds into the game starting. I totally agree with that, but Anubis is the only class in the game that can steal health.

As long as Anubis can keep spamming Absorbing Strikes and catches you in a Cursed Field, it doesn't matter how many stacks Anubis has because you are dead. No other class can be losing a fight, then suddenly have more health than the enemy, except rarely maybe Tundrus, by like 9 health at most.

Another reason why Anubis is 1st place in my opinion is because of his crowd control, which covers more situations. For example, Nether won't be wiping out an army of skilled people who know what they're doing, but an Anubis who throws out a Cursed Field and catches all of those skilled people will most definitely win that fight.

Other notes : Major is low because lets face it, more speed doesn't mean you will dodge plasma cannons to the face if the Mechanic is good. Major's damage is overtime, but with someone who has about 0.65 defense half of the time, even Mechanic can do burst damage to him without satellite strike. Major's combo is neat, but it could've been neater (winks at frigost) Because Major has nothing perfect about him, theres nothing to call him out for being good for, asides being better than Sievert. Also, bouncy major sucks and bouncy people VS major is even suckier for major.

Cryo, Barb, and Omega are as high as they should be, but I needed recruits for B Tier.

Omega might be in A Tier, but Omega has puny crowd control and any mistake can be a deadly one. Also, Omega is doomed if his E isn't ready, lol Trooper would rek him in that situation.

Barbarian is lower than you might see it because if both players are skilled, Barbarian loses. That's the facts.

Cryo is low because if he got attacked 5 seconds into the game, he's dead. If Cryo wastes all his attacks, he's dead. If Cryo gets stunned, he's dead. If Cryo starts crying, he's dead. If Cryo gets killed, he's dead. If Cryo accidentally uses V, he's dead. Also, Cryo heavily relies on E and C. If C got fixed, he's dead forever.

Things I agree on, Major might be higher because of his instant stagger, but Major gets blown up too fast for it to account.

Cryo would be higher, but his C has a VERY VERY VERY HIGH CHANCE OF BEING FIXED, and since good things do not last, Cryo will not last.

Barbarian would be higher too, but the issue is that his range issue is worse than Frigost's and spamming all his attacks don't mean your safe with 0 stamina and high defense.

Omega might be in A Tier, but his playstyle is far too dangerous for a tank. Anything could go wrong, including your spaghetti going cold.

Anubis does require setting up, but do I look like I only participate in tournaments, or do I fight swarms of 3.0ers for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? I do know about the buff, think about it: normally 7-8 damage per hit x 1.5 (from 15 kills) = around 20 damage, so that '50 damage' thing you must of got from training.

Dude... you can kill Anubis with Major, Omega, Frig, Barb, Mech, Proto, Tundrus, Trooper, hell even Renegade can kill it simply by using there moves, they dont even need to use Omegas V, C, X, Z combo or Majors Z, E+X, C, V, not even Protos Ult is needed to take it down.

Absorbing strike is great, but its completely dependent on it. And most classes can dash out of Anubis' cursed field, and if they get to close, if anubis has there ult ready than most likely the opposition does also.

And that goes for both of those paragraphs!

Time to call out Major for being good... Major has an extremely fast click-combo which is a nice niche with attack buffs for himself and defence debuffs for his opponent. With the amazing 15 damage from E+X and a defence debuff, you can destroy, the normal X also can hit twice and can catch. C, again, pairs with the click-combo, E+X, Z, and V with tripping people in a quick swipe. And OBOI those defence debuffs of that ult going into the click-combo easily.

So your telling me Tempus is better than Cryo?

Trooper recking him... so 2 options for that, go behind something, or attack with Xforward than C or V
