Eddie Tierlist

I did it. I made a tier list for in game Eddies. Here’s mine, but it’s more of a ‘coolness’ Tier list. Not an ass-kicking, name-taking tier list.

Here is the Link to create your own! - https://tiermaker.com/create/legacy-...er-list-266478

Feel free to share yours in the comments!

That’s it for this week,

Signing off

How could a max awakened cyborg not be up the top! He was max coolness even before being awakened (if not in power)!

Nice link though! I started, but refuse to go any further until you put my main man Hallowed in there!!!

So uh, I know there may not always be news to share, but you guys don't need to do a weekly post if there's no info to share. There wasn't really anything of substance here lol.

That was the first icon for Speed of Light Ed; I'm not sure why it's there.

There is also no Eternal Champ Eddie

What exactly is "News Frontier" worthy in this update? There's a separate post about the update concerning Scream For Me Eddie and Domino and who really cares about a "coolness" tierlist of an incomplete list of Eddies?
Zero updates on upcoming content or the actual issues that plague this game that haven't yet been addressed.

Or Mystic passive Ed .. or Doomsday Passive ed.....

How is Phantom Ed not cool ??

Attachment 7779

I had the same thought about Ydex in regards to the coolness of the Phantom. The cool thing about the post is that it gives access to a ranking worksheet. I think it would be interesting to see some opinions of the tier (efficacy) of Eddies. I'm going to give it a try if/when I get a chance.

I would put grim reaper in S for the coolness factor. Guy fawkes could be in the A ranking. By the way, which Eddie is between Speed of light and Bass? I have almost all but don't recognize the picture.

Someone posted earlier it was the original SOL icon.
Sort of looks like a Visions Ed variant to me.

Kitars (Keytars) are their own animal and special type of "uncool" :)

Coen Janssen of Epica is a pretty cool dude with some impressive skills to boot.Attachment 7781

I knew that statement would cause some ruckus :)

And "cool" is not the same as proficient or talented :)

yabbut the red slippers and rayon parachute pants

Dude.. that's a rayon jumper.. not simply pants :)

exactly-- "COOL" :p

Jon Lord, just watch him in concerts.

I figured you were just fishing but I finally got to see that band live and had an opportunity to talk with some of the guys before the gig. Insanely talented dudes and awesome people. Turns out a few of them are power metal fans and they cite Maiden as one of the reasons why.

I'm sorry, are you saying capes are not cool?!?

Seriously though, my friend had this old VHS tape of an Emerson Lake and Palmer concert, and Emerson goes around behind an analogue synth, and he's playing it upside-down with one hand while he pulls wires out and swaps them around, and then he starts KICKING THE SH#T out of it, causing all kinds of weird sound effects while he's still playing an upside-down, one-handed solo. Nice stage presence, for a keyboard guy!

Phantom is awesome, the story behind it is cool, the fury animation is superb... Just because people think capes or keyboards are not cool it doesn't make it a fact. Also NotB Eddie tier F?? Why? It'd be nice if you explain your list.

Viking Eddie looks really cool. Too bad his skill set is kinda bad.

I pulled him a couple of days ago, while dropping a 99 stack of rare souls for the sac event. He still look cool, but checking out his abilities was a massive disappointment! Wouldn't be surprised if he gets a rework/reskin as part of the future Norse-themed Clan activities.

I´d like a redesign & rebuilt of Fear of the Dark Eddie, it's my favorite album cover and his visuals in-game were kinda disappointment
