Are Tiers EVER allowed to be equalized?

[Creaturemaster971]

Mostly asking because, as anyone who's skimmed my profile page knows, I think that tier-equalized debates tend to be the best thing ever.

For this reason, my question is whether we are allowed to discuss them in Fun and Games threads, or anywhere on this site. If not, do we have a subsite like Joke battles or something where this would be allowed?

I feel like, even though this is primarily an indexing site, the debates are a very fun part of it, and I'd like to have more options in this regard.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think Tier-equalized results should be added to pages. This would strictly be for fun. Hence, the Fun and Games board notion.

They are in Fun and Games board (I'm pretty sure)

Practically any fights can be made in Fun and Games. Just don't expect them to be added to profiles.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

Huh. Last time I tried that I was told that I shouldn't

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

I mean it's usually the answer you'll get if you try and make a Tier equalized match unless you make sure to point out that it's purely for fun and not an actual match.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

Alright. Thank you. This site may have just become a lot more fun.

Hm. I feel like this is cool, but my problem is, there's no speed relativized or something. Basically to ask how a character can interact with another character, who is slightly superior in x specific stat.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

That was another thing I was wondering about as well, if I'm understanding you correctly.

e.g. Jonathan Joestar vs Ryu

Ryu has a gargantuan AP advantage, while Jonathan has a huge speed advantage.

So tiers relativized would mean that we alter it to where Ryu and Jonathan are comparable enough to fight on even footing, but Ryu is a bit stronger and Jonathan is a bit faster?

 

[Amexim]

Yeah! Perfect! Then, we can see how the characters leverage their advantages and weaknesses in combat.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

That would be really cool.

The question is, would the OP need to come up with exact numerical values for the two, or would averaging them out work?

 

[Amexim]

Not exactly. I would say, saying x2 faster, or 30% faster than the slower one or whatever is fine.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

Yeah that sounds good

I don't see what's the problem in that if it's purely for fun, not for adding them to profiles.
