Aw geez, you messed it up! Pop Fizz is totally overrated (Ninjini is also though), and so is Eye-Brawl.

My top 5most underrated characters:

5. Eruptor. Everyone calls him the crappiest of the fire element....I think they must not have Flameslinger.....

4.Wrecking ball. Once again he is often considered the worst of his element.......however Spyro is much worse than him.

3. Jet vac. People often call him a boring newlander. I definitely disagree, the guy can suck up enemies and fire giant blasts of wind....that's NOT boring.

2. Boomer. Not my favorite character on this list, but he seriously gets hate all over for his appearance.

1. Lightning rod. Everybody says he is weak. If you say Lightning rod is weak the only possible reason for that is that you are an idiot, that's pretty much the only way, you're an idiot if you think he's weak. People often critique his design, I think that those people should shut the **** up, it is a great design.

No, because they were original as they were in the first game. In the SECOND game, they still do that, but out of the new characters only smilie does. UNORIGINAL.

Eye Brawl is a new gameplay style. Sure he punches, but please explain the primary attacks of Terrafin and Slam Bam.

Ninjini is a copy of a spechies we have 8 of.


Put down the swords and go back to breast feeding stealth elf, Ninjini

I'm kinda tired of hearing about Ninjini, Thumpback, Hot Dog, and Flashwing to be honest. Haven't played them, so I can't say they're overrated, just not sure if they'll be as amazing as everyone is hyping them for.

I don't hear a whole lot for Sprocket or Chill, especially the latter. Or Swarm.

These are all just for Giants, not SSA.

Why is smilie so popular? I mean he's super cool at first, but at the end of the day his gameplay sucks.

Basically all you're doing is throwing colored drug bottles and attacking people as a monster all the time, plus he's just a mix of several other characters like smilie and smilie. I like him, but he's WAY more popular than he should be.

^ Never played Swarm but he doesn't seem to popular.

I may agree that he's underrated, but there is NO WAY Pop Fizz is underrated. Am I the only one who sees how immensely popular he is compared to most of the others? Probably as overrated as Camo was.

A lot of it is because he's one the first new Skylanders to be revealed.

I personally love the concept behind him, a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde critter powered by soda.

smilie is better than what many peeps give her credit for, she's so overpowered on Ice Lancer, and with the Narwhal. So I'd classify her as underrated.

Oh and Eye Brawl, Thumpback, and Ninjini also fall in the overrated category. I am excited about them coming (except for Ninjini, I don't care at all about her), but people are already rating them highly before they're even out.

Pop Fizz and Flashwing = Highly overrated.

Not to say Pop Fizz is bad, but he's just not as good as everyone says in my opinion. He's kind of a mix of many characters that already existed.

Flashwing is just a clone of Drobot, with a few differences.

Spyro is far better than Wrecking Fall, he sucks! But I agree with the rest.

I find Wrecking ball to be a surprisingly powerful force on Ultimate spinner. The forcefield ball does an excellent 61 damage, and I do not find it as hard to control as everyone says.
LightSpyro13 Blue Sparx Gems: 861
#49 Posted: 04:20:43 16/01/2013 | Topic Creator
Problem is, even though it does a lot of damage, you can't control it well. It's just pathetic, plus he bounces right off of crap he hits, it annoys the hell out of me. His other attacks are really.

In the first game (Xbox version only, he stinks on Wii), he was fairly competitibve and a somewhat decent character. Now, he's just one of the worst and most annoying; he's badly nerfed now.

Doesn't feel like that to me, everyone's noticed a lot of nerfs that I haven't smilie But yes I do understand why you would think Wrecking ball is a rubbish character. I find him kind of like Drill sergant, in that they both require some practice to kick butt as.
