In order in which I dislike them in: ( Note: I don't HATE any of the skylanders, I simply feel as though some are more pointless than others)-
![]() Hex- I have never really cared for her. Her attacks don't thrill me and I find her to be slow. I haven't used her much due to this. I do like her S2 and will be getting it for the sake of doing so, but S1 Hex is collecting dust. Wrecking Ball- Haven't played with him much either. Don't like his attacks and his design is just...ugly to me. Ghoast Roaster- Same as above reasons. I really don't see the appeal. He's not as bad as Hex in my eyes but he still isn't that great either. Drill Sergeant- Slow boring character. Doesn't leave much room for appeal design wise either. Sprocket- I can't even begin to say how horrid her design is. Good thing her attacks are decent thats the only thing that saved her. whirlwind- Love her design, hate her attacks... Stump Smash- Boring, Slow and....boring. Prism Break- I hate his attacks, he's a pain to use. Though he's powerful and I love his design, I don't play with him much due to my lack of patients. Stealth Elf- Just don't like her. I don't know why. I don't use her much and I really can't explain it....I just think she's...bleh. Warnado- He was a bit of a dissapointment...I expected better :/

10: Drill Sergeant
I love Tech as a whole, but Drill Sergeant is the most plain of them to me. I don't hate him or anything, I just don't find a lot engrossing about his gameplay, and that's the only reason I put him so low. He doesn't have much personality either. But I'm cool with him otherwise because I like his attack concepts. Like Eruptor I rarely play him, though, so at this point my opinion on him is open to change. 9: Eruptor I like playing as Eruptor, don't get me mistaken. Something just seems wrong. I suppose I'm just not a fan of his personality. I don't mind him, there are just far better. I was looking forward to him when I got the game, but never played him till the end of it, and he just seemed a bit... Lacking. I don't know. But I hardly ever play him... So... We'll see if I start to more and start liking him enough to boost him 8: Sunburn This is the point where I start listing filler characters. You see, I like Sunburn's concept, something just seems off about his gameplay. I like his design, love his backstory, and his personality is pretty cool, but his gameplay... Hmm, it's rather tepid. 7: Hot Dog Kill me, but based on impressions, Hot Dog seems like a completely inferior Chill. The gameplay seems to have recycled her attacks, yet in not as fun a way. Check his upgrades from the guide and you will see what I mean. In every other way, I also find Hot Dog's concepts weaker. He is kind of cute, I'll admit, but otherwise for seeming like such a blatant rehash of what I find one of the coolest Skylanders he loses a lot of points from me. 6: Thumpback Mostly because I'm sick of hearing about how great people think he is. He looks like a melee character with a dash to me... Nothing special. Personality... Design... Backstory... Cool, but done. Large majority of my "meh" comes from people loving him so much like he's epic or something... He really isn't... 5: Cynder She only gets points from me because of how inventive her Shadow Dash is. Otherwise, she's completely generic, and BARELY changed from her Legend counterpart. Lightning breath... Lightning strike... Blahblahblah... She's Zap with any interesting personality or design points removed. 4: Stealth Elf Oh look. Another generic elf. Yawn... Wake me up when it's E3 2011. Gameplay not special, overpowered, blahblahblah, pretty much just some service to have an anorexic ninja elf female character. Forest Ninja is her only redeeming quality. 3: Spyro Yeah. I said Spyro. I LOVE Classic AND Legend Spyro to death. But Skylanders Spyro? Let's see- his personality is generic, his gameplay is generic, his generic is generic... Spyro is not a Skylander to me. Honestly, he only gets any points whatsoever because of nostalgia. If he started as a Skylander and Classics/Legend never existed, he would probably be my second least favorite, only because Flashwing is even worse. I hate seeing him trapped in this franchise- not that I'm not willing to give a chance to have him in it but his gameplay fails to make up for it in my opinion. He lacks any spark whatsoever. 2: Terrafin I wouldn't mind Terrafin so much... He just shouldn't be as broken as he is. He has a cool-ish backstory, an okay design, and a neat Series 2 figure, but I find so much else is wrong about him. I'm not especially fond of his personality, his Earth Swim is the single most easy thing to abuse in the game, and his design is lame. Again, I wouldn't mind him so much but his gameplay is too easy for my tastes. Feeding Frenzy is also a lame fodder attack so other than Earth Swim there isn't much to tell him apart from other melee fighters. 1: Flashwing MY GOD. Flashwing. Her figure looks horrible right now, and her gameplay seems incredibly boring- you get to pick an A Attack spamming path or you pick a senselessly broken one. And her backstory makes no sense. Why would Bash's wish of flight randomly give him a dragon who can fly? That's a cute concept but the reasoning of it is awful. AND DID WE REALLY NEED ANOTHER DRAGON WHEN WE ALREADY HAVE EIGHT TO PLAY AS AND A LEVEL DEDICATED TO THEM. Maybe if she were a bat or something more interesting, I would like her more, but as it is, I find her to look like a stupidly designed character with extremely monotone gameplay and no special concept behind her. |

10. Chill
![]() I like her, she is just not my favorite. She isn't the best newlander, IMO 9. Prism Break ![]() He is SLOW! Seriously, Quigley can beat him in a race, and we ALL have seen his slowness. Otherwise I think he is a great creative character 8. Spyro ![]() I like the character, but his moves just aren't very interesting to me. They are very basic. He is just not all that fun to use IMO 7. Cynder ![]() Same as Spyro. 6. Zook ![]() He looks weird. Also he is terrible in PvP. 5. Bash ![]() He is so overpowered he is just not fun. 4. Sonic Boom ![]() Same as Spyro and Cynder 3. Gill Grunt ![]() He is just boring 2.Lightning Rod ![]() Ugly and Hairy and strange, I mean how can he eat!. 1. stealth elf ![]() ![]() ![]() 1. She sounds like a man 2. Unless you go fully down either path only one move does damage 3. She is overpowered 4. She is boring 5. Her catchphrase is based on a FART 6. She is so fast that if you could walk off the land and fall into the sky it would happen every time she comes near. 7. Her secondary disappear is always a dead giveaway 8. Even though she can jump she can't go over things 9. She is always hunched over like an old man. 10. She is so common it's annoying! 11. She sounds like a sighing badger when she jumps on a bounce pad 12. She is always taunting others 13. Her daggers look like teeth and she is wearing that cloth over her mouth so she looks like a dentist 14. Her back story is lazy 15 Her name is stealth elf but whenever she tries to be stealthy she fails 16. One of her paths is called "Pook Blade Saint". What does that even mean!?! 17. She has man hands 18. Her S2 looks like she slipped on a banana. And that is why I hate stealth elf the most.

With no Spyro, there'd be no Skylanders. And I find him much more exotic than all of them, at lest on the Blitz Spyro path that is (He's VERY bad on Sheep Burner Spyro).

Actually, Bash was the first Skylander designed. Spyro may have influenced the style of the franchise but otherwise your argument is invalid

*10:
![]() I agree with Nibelilt, kinda bland and glitchy on the Wii version (His charge stops WAY too early!). 9: ![]() *flame shield activated* Another bland Mid-to-Long Range type character, the only reason he isn't lower is that his Stonefist Traps are helpful at times. *8: ![]() *flame shield still active* Meh, all I can say is semi boring, and she needs a Longer range attack. *7: ![]() I like her as a character, but her attacks are not so good, and has a bad Wow-Pow to boot. *6: ![]() Meeh... blehh.. Just.. kinda weak.. 5: ![]() I LOVE him as a character (why did I join the site, if I didnt?), it's his moves: Generic, and simple: Fireballs? Charge? Flight? *4: ![]() ANOTHER Long Range?! UGH! Her character is alright, I also agree with Nibe on this one.. (I like her, it's just.. err.. I dunno, another dragon?) Getting difficult.. ( I partially don't agree with these.. This is just a list I had to think of fast.) 3: ![]() Difficult to control, and weak. 2: ![]() Weak, and VERY difficult to control (WHY U NO FLY?) *1...: ![]() * = I disagree with this one, as all Skylanders are awesome!

10: whirlwind. Her attacks are low dmg and are hard to aim.
9: chill. Her attacks are hard to set up, low dmg and horrible character design. 8: sprocket. Whats so good about a girl holding a giant wrench? Very bad gameplay. 7: stealth elf. Very overrated. All you do with her is jam the A button. 6: bash. Too overpowered. Only hate him on granite, though. Gameplay is kinda boring. 5: flashwing. She is like stealth elf, where all you do is jam A. Also very bad character design. 4: hex. Heres what you do: make bone wall, spawn servant, repeat 50,000,000 times. 3: crusher. Kind of stupid. Horrible secondary attack. Always getsmurdered 2: stumpy. Very boring. Just spam nuts everywhere. 1: ninjini. Hate her hate her hate her!!!!! Looks stupid, slow, and what kind of magic type has swords? Not cool, period. |

Crimony. Get over it ya babies. I like Dino-rang but don't quote and cry everytime someone says they dislike dinosaurs.
Whirlwind - girly and pathetic Warnado - Pokemon Lightning Rod - pathetic and Pokemon Sonic Boom - girly Jet-Vac - Pathetic That's why I don't like them. You are allowed to. I don't really enjoy much about the airlanders.

I'm curious about this "Pokemon" complaint. I could say Dino-Rang is Pokemon-y because he's like Cubone. Sonic Boom is definitely not girly. You wouldn't even know she was a female were it not for the voice. Nobody's crying, your complaints just seemed really out there. I'm still not quite sure what girly, pathetic and Pokemon even mean here. |

If we're basing our least favorite on how they don't fit into their element, I'd have to agree with Ninjini, but I also don't think there's anything techy about a troll who throws dynamite.

I'd say if anything Pop Fizz doesn't fit into the Magic Element.
Ninjini is a genie. Do people not realize what a genie is? Magic. They do magical things. With magic. Pop Fizz drinks science experimented soda. Science isn't magic. Spyro isn't really "magical" either. |
