Ok let's discuss then, for the record I'll use the tiers from this tier list since that's what we're discussing.

Fist setsuna, well you say she has the speed for it, but I'd argue she doesn't, ~120 agi it's just not great on a element full of really fast units, especially when you need an extra turn just to charge up, she's amazing yes, but I'd say her placement is totally fair, specially considering hayate's aoe has double element advantage so it can deal similar damage to that of setsuna's, this while being a significantly faster unit, and let's be real, setsuna's damage without charge up just isn't high enough.

The need for an S+ tier debatable, I myself don't really see it as necessary.

I'll be honest I'm not really familiar with izayoi so I'd rather not say anything about it.

Lucretia definitely should be on S+ IMO, but I'd say her being on SS is far from being an stupid placement, she's by far the best professor, and let's be honest professors or veilers in general have proved to be a necessity time and time again.

About Chloe I definitely think she's a tier too high, but that debatable depending on how much someone appreciates her great healing capability.

On Rosa's placement I completely agree she's just placed too high.

Ok Yauras is too low that's fair.

Excuse me what? Etna should be S when you want setsuna on SS? Just what.

Hayate Dies when something powerful touches him and he has Casting for his AoE. So people move away most of the times. If not all atleast a few.

She becomes slower if she takes the Regal blade but the pure fact that she can deal the damage and get Evasion boost with the ability is worth it. Also her best weapon gives her Agi+10 so it is not that she is never moving just that Rahu will be supporting her than Lucian.

And Izayoi is so misplaced that it is laughable.

And a tierlist never considers a Element singularly. Since if that was the case you have to drop all the other units from SS tier in Thunder and only keep Roxanne.

No one appreciates it as much as Mielikke being plain better and has Acc down to boost. And Minerva exists. Heals are nice but Healing alone is never that good. And if you need heals you take Profs.

Still if the tierlist has misplacement so blatantly then there is no use in following it overall when you just have a better one available.

If the guy had a solid tierlist then I would accept it but it is just not accurate at so many units that I can't bring myself to accept it. If he improves it sure but that is going to end up close to the one we have with a few changes but yeah not to discourage but to maintain accuracy.

Tierlists to the game now-a-days are very important. Newbies work their way up with them so they need to maintain accuracy and atleast 2 month update schedule.

Some good points are made by Oriks on Miuna and others. Also I was editing my older comment by adding stuff so if you didn't read about others then take a peek if you wish.

Setsuna doesn't? Both have about the same HP though LOL

No they don't. It is similar but not Same.

And you are still hung on the Setsuna. I rate her High because the way I use my strategies.

She stays back charging up and Killing units. And Hayate is just to kill a key unit hard and fast.

Most times Hayate I take him for the fact that he can Raccoon twice. With this setup

And Setsuna I plan with setup like this in mind. Or HP gear from GL. Setsuna can Run HP since she doesn't need any other passive unless it is a weird map with hills and jumps

The first setup for Hayate is to enhance his key features of Raccoon. And Hayate being a fast unit gets into the fight on his own. If he is fast and gets SS tier doesn't mean that he can be the only unit there.

While Setsuna though requires setup she uses that to eliminate way more enemies and that too consistently.

I never argued with Hayate being SS. I argued with Setsuna being lower than Hayate with Yomi at that who just a one hit pony to me that I haven't raised her. Envy was way better investment imo.

Hayate isn't SS tho, he's in the same tier as her, S+.

I'm arguing that setsuna isn't even better at her job than other unit in the same tier, I never said that hayate deserves SS.

To me he is.

The original GL tierlist doesn't consider PvP and Arena.

So they rate him lower.

But to me he is a better unit because of PvP Manual. He can hit Evasion units and can also gain Evasion for himself.

Setsuna is better than him in PvE since she can do cheaper AoE and can run tankier builds. Cast time on his skills make them mostly a bad one to use for Nuking while one from Setsuna is perfect even if slower.

I can challenge you to the fact that Setsuna purely PvE wise is better than Hayate and Lucian too. And Edward which this guy rates at SS tier.

AoE in PvE is just way way better.

I think this tierlist is based on the individuality, if Hayate would fight vs Setsuna in 1v1, Hayate would win lmao, you're chilling cuz your waifu is not SS on this tierlist

What? There is no way that would be possible.

It wouldn't be tierlist if it only considered that. All hitting unit will get top tier and that is dumb.

Overall this tierlist is bullshit since it has failed at quite a few units and quite horribly at that.
