DKC Atlas Forum

[aperson98]

I was at the Shroyuken forums the other and saw a tier list for non-fightings games topic and I wondered why not make one to rank the Kongs and animal buddies of the DKC series, I will also rank their GBA counterpants as well in usefulness for example GBA Kiddy is a better overall Kong to play with then his horrible Snes counterpart. Anyway here is my list feel free to make any arugments because I could be wrong on some of these.

Kongs-

Top-
DKC2 Dixie (Her helicopter and that she's still fairly fast to boot!)
DKC3 Dixie (ranked sightly lower because she's sightly more sluggish overall)

High-
Diddy

Middle
GBA Kiddy (Improved a lot from his Snes counterpart)
Donkey Kong

Low-
SNES Kiddy (Horrible Kong overall best used as a extra hit point )

Animal buddies-

Top-
GBA DKC2-3 Squawks (Flys and shoots nuts at a very fast rate)
SNES DKC 2 Squawks (almost the same as GBA but shoots a little slower)
SNES DKC 3 Squawks
DKC Rambi
GBA DKC3 Enguarde (His hitboxes are ridiculous)

High-
DKC2 GBA Rambi
DKC2 Rambi
Squitter (hard to use but great overall animal buddy)
Enguarde other appearances

Middle-
GBA Winky
Rattly
SNES Winky

Low-
Expressco
Ellie

Garbage-
Parry

[Tiptup Jr.]

I'd rather not f--- up my favorite video game series by applying tiers to it. I don't believe in tiers, even in games like Brawl.

That's fine if you don't like tiers Tiptup.jr, I'm only doing this for fun and much to your dismay I thought I would put in monkey smash tiers for DK64, and here they are.

Top-
Diddy- (Smallest character, quick, and two popguns for rapid fire.)
Krusha - (Two words orange launcher!)

Middle-
DK- (His roll makes him surprisingly quick, though is he a bit of a large target.)
Tiny- (Her bow has the fastest firing velocity of any weapon in the game, nothing else is all that impressive about her though.)

Low-
Lanky
Chunky (Largest target and very slow overall.)
