Never have played one of these games, just thought it would be interesting to absorb all of these character designs. Decided to watch this around midnight with the clause of “I’ll watch until the Grim Reaper guy I bought for a friend shows up”… didn’t expect him to be #14
Krypt, I’ve been watching you for a long time and dang your content is so good and the effort you put into each video is insane. Thank you for keeping this franchise alive!
As an avid prism break fan, i recommend using the S2 and using the multiple crystal path instead of the powerful beam path, trust me he becomes ridiculously good when you use him like this, especially in giants. I can understand your choice since in SSA with the other path as he is nowhere near as good.
I always found Prism Break to be underrated. I used his beam path and found great use out of his yellow beam because you can easily destroy the armoured Mowahk Cyclopses in one go, which I could barely do with any other Skylander. I really hate the earthy sound it makes in contrast to the base upgraded beam, though.
I respect your tenacity in making this list for over a hundred unique characters. The effort you must’ve put into this is incredible and I love how you included so many factors instead of just damage output
you forgot the truly greatest skylander of all time, who’s power is so great that you can’t even find him normally, and can only play as him in two games. the legend himself: template template
1: Most tier lists are based and are not 100% accurate. This one is no exception. 2: The games and figures can still be gotten from third party sites or stores, such as Ebay. But yeah, i love this game series too, and even enjoyed the 3ds version of trap team!
@skunkbrains5656 actually, dolphin emulator has an emulated skylanders portal that allows you to emulate skylanders figures! You can even do swap force figures and use the swap feature. Only problem is you are limited to the wii games
As a matter of fact they do. The RPCS3 Emulator not only has a working emulated portal, but supports all 6 of the main series games due to emulating the PS3. I personally use it and I can assure you it works
Flashwing being at 97th is painful since I mostly use her, but it makes sense. Thought her healing might stick her higher up. I've used and abused that mechanic to an extreme extent.
Same flashwing is very underrated her moves are complex and her design is unique but she’s not as loved as characters like thumpback or tree Rex and the Skylanders community she’s her as that one character that is there which sucks because she deserves tons of love
You know you've been detached from this franchise in a while when the only one you recognise in the top 10 is Krypt King 😂 He was probably my favourite Trap Master if not Jawbreaker. Guess I'll talk about the lowest spots then. Jet-Vac is the lowest on this list that I've played, and I never found him to be amazing (Air Skylanders as a whole are quite weak in my experience) and his primary is weak, but his secondary is very useful for sucking in out-of-reach food and coins (even behind walls), and his corkscrew attack is great, plus once you know that his suction attack recharges his flight, he's pretty easy to manage. Sprocket is pretty fun, but yeah agree with the majority that she is extremely weak, and no base upgrades for her primary doesn't help (though that's on me for choosing the other path). Wrecking Ball is pretty fun for me, but yeah without a ton of upgrades only his secondary is good and his soul gem is EXTREMELY underwhelming aside from healing and the fact it can charge his burp. Warnado is decent but he is pretty much useless against high-health enemies. I agree with Spyro being overrated; his biggest advantage is his Soul Gem but I consider Cynder to be pretty much a direct upgrade over him since she can dash right through enemies. Eruptor is also weak and all his base upgrades are crap; I agree his eruption path is good. I remember when people thought Ninjini was the most OP thing ever (likely because she was extremely rare); I never upgraded her fully but she seemed solid.
Wow i wonder if krypt king is his favorite skylander, i know its an insanely out there theory, but i really think it's true dispite there being absolutely no evidence.
So not only is this a video topic ive been wanting for a long time, but its also the first video ive seen from you after your hiatus (i know he did a few before this but i didnt see them). I am so glad someone is keeping the games that made my childhood alive. Thank you, and godspeed
sgtv krypt and boombringer uploading videos the same week makes you feel like we're in 2021 😭😭 amazing video as alwayss oh yeah and also the fact that you recorded gameplay for every single skylander and didn't just use the "meet the skylander" just shows the insane effort behind this video wow
I'm really happy that High Five got so high on the list. He's always been one of my favorites and definitely deserves some credit for how fun he is, both in design and personality.
Stealth elf is honestly better in the 3ds version in my opinion since she has a fast firing projectile attack that deals more damage then it probably should
I've found that nightfall is quite good on the bottom path. By abusing the secondary attack's invincibility AND being able to do damage while being invincible makes her a lot better at dealing with crowds.
Don't rly play skylanders that much anymore but I always watch your videos because it's cool to see people still enjoying these games and the nostalgic feeling I get from watching skylanders videos is unmatched. Tyy
Fun fact, Hey KryptKrusher, I’d just like to thank you, as you reminded me that Skylanders still exist, and have motivated me to get a new Xbox 360 to replay the games and see just how good of a gamer my 6 year old self was.
I waited until I saw trigger happy on the list, I'm shocked he is that low. He is my personal favorite. (Og not the superchargers reboot) Also as someone who loves gill grunt he is a lot of fun to play once you unlock the infinite water jetpack upgrade. At least he can speed run. Overall sad to see him that low. Also no joke I don't recognize like half of these skylanders because I only played the first 3 games
I got skylanders a couple of years ago, i played swap force and giants, and then never played it again. But thanks to you im playing it consistently again. Thanks, its such a nice franchise and i love playing it
Just started the video and saw Flip Wreck and how you are talking about his move set and such… like you must’ve been tons of work into this video if you aren’t just basing them on if they look cool or such! Like props to you man! Portal Masters 4 life!
My first ever Ps4 game was Skylander swap force, and me and my brother used to play it a lot. I was Countdown (134) and my brother was Grim Creeper (14), and honestly I could feel quite a bit the power difference, but that was never really a problem to me since I loved my character so much. Those two have a special place in my heart.
I haven’t played Skylanders since Swap Force came out, so my memory was a bit hazy, but I remembered who my favorite was. So, while watching, my anticipation and excited continued to rise until my favorite came up: Camo! Glad he was towards the top of the list!!!
Well done man! You put so much effort into this, and it really shows! Thank you for doing this for us! Btw, not that I’m complaining, but I think it’s just really interesting how so many of my personal favorites placed so low on your list
I wish wrecking ball had some more flow and versatility in his kit, maybe a tongue sweep as a combo, then maybe let burp start combos so you could charge belch into sweep for a good damage crowd control combo with a bit of a start-up as a trade off wich would be something that would add extra use to the roll since it could grant you distance to start a charged burp ..... Idk something like that. Also letting you freely input the direction you travel on roll start up animation, free from his initial direction. Also I honestly have a unhealthy amount of love for zap, I do wish we saw more spacing options in his kit since enemy manipulation feels like it's supposed to be his gimmick, mobile with the ability to hamper enemy movement while dealing consistent low tick damage. Maybe making the wave carry enemies away with it so you can wash away and suppress problem enemies to deal with later..... If that was to much maybe make it consume a good chunk/fully drain your water tanks, make using it more weighty.
Opinions are really neat and it's always nice to see more. Some takes I don't agree with, some I do, and some I don't own the character for so I have no idea lmao. Banger video, enjoy your holiday and your Pikmin lmao.
I personally enjoy Star Strike, but I understand why she's so high on the list. Her playstyle requires a lot of precision and can be quite tricky, but she's oddly satisfying to play. Though, I don't tend to go into higher difficulties, just don't care for it. I also play deja vu as well, though, all the skylanders tend to be fun for me.
every time this man uploads its phenomenal. great to see that the skylanders community is still small but prevalent. Especially recently, seems like every day i see a vid called "what happened to skylanders"
I play skylanders “competitively” nightmare mode one skylander runs/speedrunning. It’s interesting to see how low some essential skylanders are placed. I just look at numbers when picking my favourites so good frame data, hit box manipulation, and pure dps is more important to me than having a creative design or being fun to play.
Ah yes, a 58 minutes video about ranking Skylanders. A franchise that I only know it's existence through Scott the Woz videos, this will be perfect entertainment for the housework.
Honestly, I respect This List, I Feel like you should Stream More Often, I Missed your Old Streams, it's used to Watch you since 2018 and I loved your "Road To 100%" Streams.
@@kryptkrusherThat would be a dream come true 🤩🤩, Btw I don't want to annoy u with these stuff, but I have a channel Called "Splash Shot" And was wondering if you could give me a shoutout or we could film some content together?
My bias definitely made me upset when I’d see you put one of my favorites really low, but then you’d give a great reason why you put that skylander there and I’d completely agree. Especially on skylanders that had a flying move. Great video! I miss skylanders so much… yet I never even beat imaginators lol
When I played skylanders Giants as a kid, one of my first skylander was wrecking ball, and I thought he was amazing, and I still do, even with almost the entire world doesn't
I haven’t played as every Skylander, nor do I think I ever will, but my top three favorites are 3.) Bushwhack 2.) Blades and 1.) Chopper. However, I do quite agree with pretty much all of these rankings since they all have valid points P.S. I love the content you make and you never fail to make me laugh, so keep up the great work 😊👍🏻
Bash could do something really incredible in swap force, if you used the rock/fist attack to move the guy at the upgrade “egg”. And then interact with him, the map perspective completely changed, it was barely playable if he was moved to far. But it was still a cool thing to do
i loved Skylanders and followed the series from the first one until trap team and i had completely forgotten about it for years. Good to see someone genuinely so into it now.
i feel that blaster mind can be fun because to me hes a high risk high reward type skylander because he can hit multiple enemies at once and he can have range and for me i can kick buns as blastermind but i respect your opinion
I would personally put terrafin hinger on the list. With his dig ability you can cheese almost every boss in spyro's adventure, which is my favorite game of the series. Good video tho! Also seen a few i never knew existed xP
as the world's number 1 jet vac fan, its sad to see him so low. butttt i kinda agree... however he completely makes up for it in skylanders academy lol
Man, I started watching your videos couple days ago and then I saw that you published 2 videos in 9 month and I thought you abandoned RU-vid. Happy you still publish
I'm watching this a month late... But it's great cuz my Wii still works, I'm gonna take my 14th place with grim creeper (my personal fav) and beat nightmare mode by myself (Amazing video Krypt! The nostalgia was cubed on this)
About 2-3 years ago I found the top half of Fire Kraken on the curb while waiting for the school bus. I have no idea how he got there or why only his top half was there but he’s found a nice home stuck to a metal container in my room, never to find a bottom half (I had like 4 swap-force figures and they all disappeared like 10 years ago)
Hello👋, guy that completely watched your nightmare mode vid 6 times here. I liked the video very much as usual and I really appreciate all the effort you put into these videos as usual and also all of the other good stuff as usual. I already know that am gonna be watching this vid multiple times too. Times watched: 3
Skylanders was my childhood, I will always have a special place in my heart for them, but I don’t really know where I would have put jet pack but I do like him in the skylanders academy show. That was fun growing up
Well done for knowing all of them. I was a huge fan of this series but because my Wii broke I only ever got to play the first two and like half the third one.
19:05 My first Skylander was Voodood, I really just picked them based on design when I was little, so that's apparently who I thought was the coolest looking.
