EFZ Tier Lists

[EFZ Tier List]

Using this to document various opinions on tiers.
Note: Kanna is a broken boss character and therefore banned from serious play.

There isn't much of a gap between the tiers. Low tiers are able to fight the top tiers and win - overall the game is extremely well balanced.

Alternative JP tiers: http://i.imgur.com/RkoHsuM.png
The higher the character, the higher tier. Japanese is as follows:
Left: Power (damage potential), Okizeme
Right: Zoning
Characters on the far left will have higher damage potential or better okizeme, whereas characters on the right are heavy in zoning. Characters in the middle are good at both.
