#Soul calibur 5 tier list 2016 ps3#
There's no shame in this, as for most casual gamers, even getting to some of the lower ranks is quite and accomplishment.Here is the complete list of characters in Soul Calibur 5 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. One of these remaining ranks is known as the "death rank" where the vast majority of players got stuck and couldn't progress past. We cover the remainder of the ranks below, Diamond through Rookie, which you can find by skipping around the timestamps. For Grand Master level players, you see them most consistently in the results of majors, but not often winning events. Grand Master is the next step down, which is where my co-host and I are currently ranked at.
Ultimate Grand Master rank is representative, currently, of the top 1,000 players in the game. One might assume the winningest designation would be Warlord rank, however getting to that spot requires a ton of grinding online, and some players haven't attempted to get to that level of League Points, despite having the necessary skills to do so. Ultimate Grand Master is the next rank down, and it features the most tournament winners we've seen for Street Fighter 5 to date. Their skill sets are often above and beyond the field.
Most of the players who hit this rank - which are roughly 200 people in number - are capable of winning a major tournament without issue. John "Velociraptor" Guerrero and I start at the top with the Warlord rank, which is the highest possible rank designation players can currently attain in the game, and requires 300,000 League Points (LP) or more.
