I had a whoel bunch of clips together and I think i saw a video similar to this a whiel ago and wanted to make my own version.

The worst part about playing Titanfall 2 is that literally no other multiplayer shooter is as good as it.
True
This is sad but fax, once i played it I can't play any other multiplayer shooter
Still,the developers dont spend much time on it I'm 175% sure that if they did,titanfall would be one of the bestsellers and one of the best fps games that exist nowdays. The game died because of the lack of updates,i can't wait for titanfall 3!
Battlefield 1? Halo Reach? TF2?
No the worst part about Titanfall 2 multiplayer is the amount of timeout & crashes 🤣. You can't stay in a lobby even for 1 minute.
Fun Fact: Flame core can skip doomed state on titans that have less than two bars of health left

Ok
I mean it’s just the AI’s voice that makes people call them by he or she.
I've used ion's tripwire defensively and offensively. Defensively, it can slow the enemy in a pinch, either luring players away from you (works well in close quarters) or do good damage to titans that are blindly chasing you. On the offensive side, you can just chuck it at a titan provided you do it right. You can throw it just after the sheild disappears for example.
0 Point tripwire also makes the ability immensely better, meaning you can focus your energy on laser shot, vortex, and spread
Ions tripwire is good at punishing enemies for pushing you
Putting too much thought into it man I just put enhanced chip on ronin and it farms pilots for me😂
Legion will always be my favorite. He’s a giant dude with a minigun. What’s not to love about that? Northstar is a close second for me.
Scorch better
I‘m a Scorch Main and I love sniping (obviously also including ejecting pilots)! I would trust him (and his voice) with everything!
Duck hunting time
Daddy Scorch 😫
I will say, really really skilled Scorch mains are absolutely terrifying because they will never put themselves in positions where they can’t corner an enemy. Many times early-career scorches get blasted because they run straight at an enemy over open ground….but the scariest Scorch mains are the one who have no issue taking their time to get into position to spring a trap with massive stacking damage. I have close to 250 hours on Scorch ALONE because the area control is just my kind of playstyle….and I will tell you now as long as I think ahead and plan my attack, I have no issue facing down 2-to-1 or 3-to-1 odds if I can get myself into an advantageous position. I’ve logged huge chunks of time with each titan….but when the cards are down and I need to win, I break out the big papa because I can control the flow of the engagement
my man sayin truths, tbh I got really excited when he put Scorch at A, bc some people think he is weak, but it really depends on the situation, in one he is a monster others just a chunk of metal, but if you are always at the best situation then you are always a monster. I remember playing some only Titan battles (forgot the name) in a private server bc of the ddos, it was advanced base and I still ruled with scorch, 10-0 then I simply left, Papa is simply too good
Well that goes for all skilled titan mains... Scorch gets rolled by every single titan in a 1v1. The only exception being legion, who still destroys him, assuming both have some core charge already, since he shreds scorcjes shield and then health bar with smart core. Seriously, then only players thinking scorch is genuinly good is newbies getting thermal shielded or just unaware scorch onetricks.
The most terrifying thing about scorch is when you’re in the middle of a fight and then out of nowhere your health just starts melting
@@ToxicOnAWave Scorch is very map-dependant. There are some maps where a good Scorch can catch others off guard or corner them, but on open maps he'll usually either have to hide for most of the game or get shredded before he can close.
I mostly play Frontier Defense and I adore how powerful Scorch feels when I'm annihilating everything with my fire
Northstar's cluster can be used reliably as a main form of defense for pilots, same for twin tethers, but with titans. hover can be used to peak over buildings when at a distance and whittle down enemy titans health. You can also, with the piercing shot kit, SHOOT THROUGH TEAMMATES AND USE THEM AS A SHIELD. (example combat scenario: Northstar with piercing shot kit behind friendly legion with an enemy monarch in front in a non-flankable corridor. since northstar < legion in health, and northstar > legion in quick bursts of damage, northstar is a bigger priority. use the tankier titan as a shield and do damage to the monarch in a sort of defensive-offensive position. Flight core is used best at mid-long range while alternating ADS for accuracy, and hip-fire for damage. when a titan is close, you can either dash away a lot, or punch them. my fav strategy is to use the threat optics kit and electric smoke so YOU can see THEM and not vice-versa or both. also if you are being rodeoed and don't have e-smoke, shoot a cluster at the ground, back up into it, and look straight up. or at a wall, back up into it and look the opposite direction of where the wall is. or if you are below a ceiling you can shoot it at the ceiling and look down. all of these WILL kill the pilot unless they leave. Against Ion: Keep distance and cover and try to critical hit as much as possible, mind the vortex shield. when she is using core, stay behind long cover to take minimal damage until the core ends. Against Scorch: Keep distance as to not let him obliterate you with thermal shield (especially if he has inferno shield) or gas traps. hover when he is using core and if you can, use flight core to counter his failed core and keep away from his T-203 TL rounds which take a while to hit their target, take advantage of this. Against Ronin: Make him use up his arc wave, dashes, and leadwall rounds so he has to reload, use cluster missile on the ground to make him use up phase dash and trap him in tethers so he can't escape, get a good full charge shot on the nose and dash away when hover ends. Juke him into chasing you around the map to get to your ally titans (if you are playing teams) and have your friend distract the ronin while you take cover and shoot him until he is doomed. don't bother with the termination or goose and just melee the pilot when he ejects and hits the ground. Against Northstar: Keep in mind that she has everything you have, and cover and velocity is essential. keep distance and get as many traps off as you can. if you get her in the traps, don't let her have the time to charge and shoot you back, go to cover and crouch behind it and tease her by un-crouching and crouching so she doesn't know when you are going to un-crouch and shoot. keep away from the clusters and traps, mind your surroundings, and most importantly RUN THE FUCK AWAY FROM FLIGHT CORE (that shit be scary man) Against Tone: Flank and shoot, surprise her by staying in the edge of a corridor with full charge, and keep in mind that particle wall is easy to destroy in 1 shot with full charge, and that it has a really fast cooldown. Against Legion: Catch him off-guard and shoot his leg when gun shield is up, dash away when power shot is vibe-checking, and beware of long range mode and smart core. Against Monarch: RUN THE FUCK AWAY AND HOPE THAT SHE DOESN'T FIND YOU Basically, keep cover and distance with high-speed, mind your surroundings, and be creative with everything you do, as there is a lot of possibilities of what you can do and how you can use and/or combine it, where the enemy anticipates you, or where a strategy fails. but one point remains the same, act like you're playing super smash bros with combos of abilities pretty much. this took WAY too long to type but i hope i helped someone out with northstar.
If you want help with monarch I'd recommend trying to locate it first then keep the engagement at long range for as long as you can. Use tether traps to slow her advance and place cluster missiles between you and her. You want to wait around corners and large objects at a distance with a fully charged railgun shot for when she peeks. Unless you have a shot fully charged keep to cover to minimise any opportunities monarch has to shoot you. Avoid using hover unless you have viper thrusters and know what you are doing. You can also play around your core if it's available. Instead of falling back you want to hold your corner as the monarch advances. Hide a tether trap by the corner to catch her when she gets close and keep your health as high as you can. Once she's close enough to peek your corner (and trigger the tether trap) you want to preemptively dash towards her and core. you want to position yourself just above and behind her ideally, but just being above is fine. Then rain death from above. Know your monarch. It may be the same titan but each one is different. If you face an aggressive one who keeps pushing up towards you, stick to what I've mentioned and you can chip her down to doomed state. If she flees don't pursue too quickly. She may be baiting you into getting close which is a death sentence. If she doesn't peek around soon she may have already started flanking you. In this case, choose a new position to counter possible flanks and prepare a fully charged railgun round for when she appears. If she doesn't appear, she's lost and you're safe for a moment. Hope this helps.
@@skyla1884 theres a problem, ns's tethers dont do SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
@@AnatoliasKZheadAccount agreed I remember when I use to play monarch and a ns would teather me I wouldn’t slow me down at all even if the ns was far enough I would smartly use 1-2 round burst of my gun ,shield stealer thingy, or the rockets if you are skilled enough with monarch Any engagements at almost any range you can still have a high chance at winning
@@pcruncher5627 i mean others activate and trap me but mine dont even activate when a titan is standing literally RIGHT ON TOP OF IT AND IT MAKES ME SO FUCKING MAD
@@AnatoliasKZheadAccount The tether needs a second or three after landing before it can trap something. If yours aren't activating then I'm going to guess that you're throwing them like they are shurikens. If you are placing them early then ... I dunno. Are you actually placing them early or do you need to place them earlier than you expected?
This has been one of the Best tier lists for titans I have seen. I can relate to where you put each of them and it seems pretty accurate for skill level, Good vid.
You must really like titanfall lol since I randomly found you on this video haha
@@ShaLoCFH kinda, all i did was watch one vid and then this stuff keeps getting recommended to me
Ionno bro. Ronin is S tier. I was nearly crying when i saw him getting hella damaged without ever using his shield
This is by far the most braindead tierlist. Like seriously. Scorch above northstar? Ion in B tier? *Monarch in S Tier?* he could flip the tier list around the other way and it would be more accurate.
Gotta disagree with a couple chief. In my opinion, ion is A because of her shear utility. Long range option laser, short range option tripwire. And some kits can majorly help with energy reserves. Monarch is only an A for me since she can become an S tier but until you get the first core, your the weakest titan on the field. The energy beam is decent but isn't the best defensive tool, and the missiles don't do much damage and like to swirl off and hit other things, making them less reliable as damage. If she gets to the 2nd and third core easy S but when she first drops she's a B. Averaging out to an A
I've played TTF2 for a while and while I agree with everything, I'd still put Ronin as S. He isn't hated for no reason, a good Ronin working in conjunction with another Titan can disintegrate a team of three Titans. I'd put his job as to handle solo Titans/northstars and to support the team by smoking enemies and taking fire to himself so the team can dish out damage (it sounds bad being the tank but trust me, it works). Occasionally you can get some stupendous kills but that mostly depends on your Sword core, not very consistent. Still, he's the only Titan who can evade a rodeo with no smoke and can block a nuke blast. He's a menace.

Mine goes like this: Legion as my main, because I love the shooty, and I've always loved going "F this one lane in particular" and then nuking it. Monarch is my 2nd (shut up, it's totally a thing..) main. Legion was my first real main in TF2 PVP so it'll always hold a special place in my heart but I love Monarch's utility and build-up to power. Ronin comes next as the 2nd Titan I explored and was very salty about before playing as. (I main Legion for christ's sake, of course I'm gonna be mad about Ronins) After playing her I realised Ronins really DO need to steal my kills, (except when they don't (I'm looking at you Ronin's who aren't running sword core)) so now I appreciate them helping. Scorch comes in at third as the first titan loadout I actually enjoyed in the campaign (I do like the first few but they are a BIT boring, just saying.) and the first I played in PvP, without maining. Bare in mind I've only really explored Legion fully, as he's the only titan I've maxed out. (I might have also maxed Monarch but I'm not sure..) Northstar + Ion, I appreciate both and know that they can hold their own, but I haven't had enough experience with either yet to truly "get" them. Eventually, I will become enlightened and preach to the masses that Ion is the true messiah of the titans, but until then it's Lemonin (Legion, Monarch, Ronin) all the way baby! Tone, It's just too slow and 3 hits for rockets in multiplayer is not good enough, gameplay in TF2 is fast-paced and this titan just completely screws with that. I wanna be *f a s t* not slow...
Jesus Christ you’re basic, fuck you with your monarch
Average Gen 10 player
If we get a titanfall 3, can they pls have you do a showcase of the titans that are going to be in the game? I found your descriptions and the tone that you used awesome. When they needed an aggressive tone to describe how dangerous the titan can be, you delivered. Badass video!!

@@seventhest yes
@@seventhest not this acc tho
Ah yes, my favorite thing in Titanfall 2, titan vs titan against 5 enemy monarchs, all using energy thief. Also Scorch can just kill legion with his shield by just running at him, most just give up
I would give up
Hah! As a Legion main, I see comments like this all the time. Really, in most engagements with a scorch, simply moving out of range of their sheild, or waiting until it expires, is so easy and wins me most standoffs. Any scorch I come across is simply dumbfounded when bum-rushing doesnt work! Its hilarious. Seriously though, simply staying at range and making sure you cant be caught in a corner is pretty much enough to get you by. Scorch simply cannot function in open areas.
people forgetting titan e-smoke is a thing that does damage, potentially giving you an upper hand or discouraging scorches from rushing you
Scorch and Ronin are my two gods, great video 😁
I'd personally ranked legion higher than North Star since his long range power shot does good damage making him essentially a bigger North star especially with his double power shot kit.
Legion can't sustainably just spam long range shots against a northstar. Yes he has more health but northstar's maneuverability, tether traps and hovering kinda just outclasses legion at a long range that being the range any decent northstar player would stick to
As an avid Ronin main, I agree with everything you said. The A tier rating is very fair. I can't find anything wrong with the rating. Well done my friend! 👏
Scorch is unbeatable. The amount of damage u can do is beyond insane.
But he needs to get close to deal damages, and he totally lacks any mean to close the distance with his foes. Just keep your distances to beat Scorch. Scorch can only count on his opponent's poor positioning or surprise to be able to close the distance.
It can either kill other players or yourself *unless if you have that Scorch kit where Scorch's flames don't harm him*
Scorch is my favorite due to the fact that I’ve annoyed so many people with the their ability’s . Legion firing at you use the shield, ronin thinks they are an anime protagonist pop some gas and watch them sit there sad that they couldn’t melee you, tone thinks they’re faraway enough slap them with a fire column, anyone thinks they can get near you hit ‘em with a core.
I've found that Tone is really reliable if you're accurate, being able to lock on and fire rockets almost instantaneously. But Tone is hard countered by Ronin and Scorch if they get close enough. But if a Ronin tries to kill me, it's going to come down with me.
Salva core online
Tone is my main and I've noticed that with tone i have no issues to destroy any titan, no matter close range or long. The only issue is... RONIN
For me Ion is amazing, I have an ability that makes it’s trip mines not use energy and I usually use it when close up against multiple, it shreds when you get a chance to use it at the right times, the power thing is tricky but with how good its ability’s are it’s worth it
My tier list would go as follows: Ronin: A tier. Ronin is weird because his design screams fast dps, while what he actually is is a distraction. Ronin can't be left alone for too long since he rips through your Tone's shields, but the damage reduction on his sword block is INSANE. 75% base and 90% while cored iirc. Playing Ronin is a balancing act of getting the enemy's attention by pestering them with shotgun shells, then blocking and teleporting while your teammates move in to deal their damage. You can also chase down Northstars and Tones for fun. Like you said, he's got a really high skill ceiling. Scorch: B tier. Scorch is either S tier or F tier depending entirely on what map he's on. In close quarters, no titan even comes close to Scorch's power. Overconfident Legions and Ronins get demolished by fire 24/7. Where Scorch falls short is when he's forced to move in on an opponent. Since he's slow on approach, he either A: shields the damage and gets kited endlessly, or B: takes the damage in order to trade with the opponent. Northstar and Ion are literally impossible to deal with as Scorch. Tone and Monarch can be really tough too (especially with arc rounds, holy shit). Very situational titan, but stands above all else when the stars align. Legion: C tier. Imo, Legion is the worst titan in the game. He's even slower than Scorch, his shield is easily the weakest of all the titans (excluding Monarch), and the reload is painfully slow. Legion is like Ronin, his design betrays his playstyle. The way to play Legion is to be a long range Northstar until you're nearly full on Core. Switch to close range for that sweet bullet sneeze, then at low ammo flip that core on and spray gore across the field. Also, ALWAYS use hidden compartment, it's a pure dps increase from the extended ammo kit (forgot what it's called). If you want to experience the real Legion, fully rank him up in Frontier Defense. Dreadnought is probably the best capstone ability in the game, and so damn fun. Ion: A tier. This titan is why difficulty stars mean nothing. The energy balancing act is extremely difficult to pull off properly, but Ion is one of the strongest titans in every situation. The laser shot is the best primary weapon in the game, a slightly weaker, instant, hitscan Northstar shot that you can fire twice in a row without recourse is batshit insane. Crits on that thing are disgusting, and it chews up pilots almost as fast as a smart core. The splitter rifle sucks unless you have the energy left to fully activate it, then its damage becomes passable. The laser tripwire's hitbox is ridiculous (zero point tripwire rocks btw), and the shield is just so-so. Requires some hard reads from you to use effectively. Basically, Ion is a pilot's worst nightmare, and also a fantastic titan that can fulfill any role a team needs. Tone: A Tier. That particle shield...it's the only thing saving this titan from obscurity. Without a Ronin, the particle wall is legit unbreakable, never mind if they're using reinforced wall. When a Tone drops its wall, everything on the opposite side of it STOPS. There's no aggressing it, your frontline titans aren't fast enough and risk getting shredded before making it past, and retreating is usually the right option but still risks taking at least one lock on. It's a ludicrous ability on an otherwise decent titan. The core ability's pretty good too, straightforward and incredibly easy. Monarch: B Tier. If your team protects you properly, this IS the strongest titan in the game, bar none. If they let you execute and farm grunts, then a core 3 monarch is unstoppable. Unfortunately, this isn't how the game works. You will likely enter core 3 with half your health at most, if you reach it at all. Luckily, a core 1 and 2 monarch are still pretty good. Arc rounds and quick rearm/reload or maelstrom are a fantastic combo. What Monarch is best at is rolling a team that was already losing though, and honestly that just isn't as useful for winning as it is for getting a big killstreak. Fun titan, don't get me wrong, but it's more oppressive than it is good. In conclusion, the titans in TF2 are very well balanced. A few changes I'd like to see are 1: Give Scorch two shots in his primary so he can function as a backline artillerist when he can't get close. 2: Give Legion at least 140 ammo by default and make his shield a little stronger. This would lean Legion more into the power fantasy Legion players are looking for, being a bullet hose on the frontline, rather than only getting to experience that bliss when cored. 3: Lessen Ion's reliability on laser shot. Just make it do a bit less damage and make the splitter rifle a bit better. It's not even just that the rifle's weak, it's that it feels awful to use. It'd be fun to have a primary like Zarya's from Overwatch, a beam where the damage starts low, but ramps up with good tracking. 4: Make Monarch a true support titan. The shield transferring is laughably weak, probably because shield just isn't all that helpful in Titanfall 2. I'd say she should have the ability to grant overshield to herself and her teammates, making her teammates facepalm less when their greedy Monarch steals their kill. That's about it though. Sorry for the essay in the comments!
It’s weird because you’re right about the ion traps I run the kit that doesn’t take the energy for it so I could just use it in the middle of a battle it’s really hard to notice when you are fighting Or they just really don’t care
The hungry monarchs, 2022 edition
Hungry hippos remake.
Don’t think you’ve met a good Legion main that has good aim. Back in the day I used to completely out snipe Northstars and use my range to completely seal off entire sight lines of a map so that the enemy could funnel into another. On Homestead, Kodak and colony all I had to do was kick back and not miss a shot lol. As long as you keep your distance and keep track of all your opponents they can’t touch you while you empty drums of ammunition from across the map. And the power shot just makes it far too easy. Also the Bulwark kit is broken asf lmfao it completely absorbs salvo cores. I used to abuse that and lure people into a straight and then pop that with my core and have all the ammunition in the world to end them. If you demonstrate to the enemy that you know how to spend your 140 rounds then they won’t even try to bum rush you, in angel city I used to use the long range fire option in CQB and laser the crithit. Legion is A tier imo and S tier if you have good aim.
I love North Star! Still do! She's my main. Nail em from a far, nail from up close! And surprisingly if you use the cluster missiles right, a swarm of combat drones and ticks can be decimated quickly and safely!
This is so old yet so good
I think the best thing about titanfall is that most of the guns are generally fair. In other words, you could easily just pick which ones looks cool, or which one you like, and will do just fine.
I don't know how legion is as low as he is, considering that he can out-dps every other titan minus scorch, who he can easily out-range, and out-range every other titan minus Northstar, who he can out-dps incredibly easily, along with having the best health and a very good kit.
As a Legion main, it is hard to get kills because you need to wait for the predator cannon to rev up, but when it's ready you become almost unstoppable.
I remember back when I used to play on my PS4 i main the hell outta monarch and she was easy for me to use even when I didn’t fully understand her kit
Ronin and Legion were my most used funny enough, but Ronin was my fav, I was a god tier titan killer back in the game’s prime
Both have a special place in my heart
6:40 “That’s a police car”
Lil bro ain’t lyin
Bro just got a sub 👌🏼
I was infamous among my friends as the “rodeo ronin” i could tell you a whole story on it but I’ll make it short: basically i was(and still am in other games nowadays) a hit and run specialist so ronin is an obvious pick for me, i take flanks and i did this one tactic where after the hit, i run around a corner with a flat wall surface and wall run and rodeo the enemy titan, steal the battery because for some reason people just turn off their brains with the smoke when my titan is shooting them, and hop back in, phase behind them and finish/execute them, i 1v1 some of my friends and they hated this tactic 😂
This makes me want to play Titanfall again
Do it, it’s such a good game, especially with northstar, plus if I’m not mistaken the original servers are back.
Pls do
Facts are that all of these titans are deadly in the right hands
I think ion is great because a laser shot on a critical spot (plus its low cd can lead to a lot.) Ion is probably the best at attacking grunts and reapers. Lasershot is perfect for reaper since it almost destroys them.
back when i first started playing TF2, Ronin was my go to titan. easily ranking him up to g43 at rank 26, and just phasing away every time i saw a scorch. Now, it's just me switching between passive northstar, or rushing in, and dieing to a smart core Legion.
I love North Star with viper thrusters, it’s so much fun.
Along with those upgrades I also have warp fall and nuclear eject, as I know he won’t survive very long, might as well use him as a bomb for fun
Can’t believe I actually agree with the entire list. I agree with the whole Monarch is the best, and annoyingly so. I was a Ronin and Northstar main. It was a quick introduction to the Titans, but it got me ready quickly. Scorch was always my next choice, but I love speed.
Nah lad this list is just weird. Mornach is mid, Northstar is S, Ronin is close to S, ION IN B TIER???, Scorch is by far the worst titan and Ton is a sleeper pick in Attrition since she absolutely destroys pilots.
@@ToxicOnAWave I respect your take. ‘Just from what I experience, a tier 3 Monarch can hold it’s own against any titan, Ronin’s amazing in the right hands as a hit and run. Northstar similar for random spurts of damage. Scorch is a weird choice, prolly the most skillful one. And Tone has forever been good for Pilots, but I never really cared to much for that.
As a tone player, I know "iM a ToNe noOB" I really believe that tone is a very situational titan some maps she's terrible and others like Homestead she's and absolute beast, aver all I think their a lower A teir. I also think their one of the coolest titans.
I main Tone... Tone is versatile and a fucking beast, cheers m8 (fuck fellow pilots if they can't see it that way)
@@WVinceoo7as a legion man that shield is the most annoying thing ever since. My strategy against it is literally popping off my shield and gamble on who’s shield lasts longer as we shoot each other.
@beartheconfused6798 this is why I use the reinforced shield buff on tone🙂
fun way to get value from tripwire. Let the enemy titan charge you, fire tripwire and punch them as they reach melee range, you will shove them back into the tripwire and force them to trigger it.
titanfall 2 come back has began
every titan can be A or S tier depending on the map, always switch between titans except for tone, i never play tone because it just feels so mediocre, i cant find any map that properly suits it
not know , but just know you've affected my life, and apparently tens of thousands of others, in an imnsely positive way. Thank you
I’m glad I could make something that you have enjoyed, this comment is lovely :))
The thing about the titans is that they are meant to counter each other like legion will most likely loose to a ion because legion mainly uses his gun and ion can reflect the bullets and a scortch might win against a ronin because getting close to scortch is a bad idea and ronin normally needs to get close to do maximum dmg and so on
Imo Ronin can be anywhere on the tierlist depending on the player there are some ronins who literally have so much swagger it’s like their playing dmc
Imo all titans can be S tier depending on the pilot, personally aren't great at using legion but the rest I can perform very well on. By far I enjoy and perform the best with Northstar, followed closely by Ronin and Tone
i have gotten very good at neutralising ronins with tone even at close range, electric smoke+lock on tracker make for a very easy way to confuse ronins more than they confuse me and give me time to get another volly off before they find me again. I feel very happy that I am very good with the worst rated titan in the game according to you lol
Scorch is a beast in Frontier Defense
I have a tactic based off of how bad i am at fighting, i just run in as ronin to take down enemy titan health and i use the magnetic grenade launcher to also take chunks off titan health, and then i just turn into an auto turret by jumping onto a friendly titan and fighting what they fight.
My man made my fridge tone dirty
Me automatically when i use legion: Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe... maybe. I’ve yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet
damn~! my girl monarch be S-class
She still scares the living daylight out of me whenever I see one
Haha Legion go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT Seriously though, holding down a point with Legion, or holding down long alleys is the stuff of dreams. I've had people send me hateful messages because of me holding down a lane, and I use Bulwark(?) for that extra close range burst to push them back and take another chunk of hp. The key Idea is as soon as you see an enemy, crouch, shield and burstburst. Your shield will protect the most of your titan while crouched as your gun spins up and then when you're out of power shots, your gun is already spun up and your shield is usually still there too, unless you're facing another walking fridge. While you have your shield, PUSH FORWARD. This is usually enough to get the other titan to back off from the extremely quick withering damage. If not, it's their funeral. Enjoy the scrap metal.
cool vid man

my tier list 1. monarch - basically BT but different 2. scorch - it has high damage output to me so I main it 3. NorthStar - it is powerful but needs timing 4. legion - no need to explain 5. tone - hey its better for me to play then the last two. 6. Ronin - its better than ion but dies a lot 7. ion - I'm not good at managing ion levels
I guess pilot skills matter because I can easely best 4v1 in a Tone or decimate a Nortstar at long rannge. Would do similar with Monarch but not as good as Tone. Close range Scorch or a good Ronin are a challenge for sure tho.
Gotta love the walking war crime scorch
Never hurt nobody a cheeky war crime or two
I love Ronin just because Titans are cheap and plenty and you can always leverage a single Ronin into 1-2 enemy titans + a couple pilots. I usually take 3rd dash and thunderstorm, but phase reflex, highlander and both nuke eject and overcore will work. Vs Northstar: Sword block the railgun shot and you should be good to go. Use Phase Dash to get through any other titans blocking your way, otherwise save for tether traps. Vs Ion: Arc Wave and melee, you gotta be good at punch fights not to get knocked away. Use shotgun when enemy low on energy. Vs Tone: If they hit you, leave until the lockon falls off. Use Phase Dash to dodge Salvo Core. Arc Wave the shield to open the firing line to your allies. Vs Legion: Arc Wave, unload shotgun and skedaddle. Uncle Legion will melt your ass even through sword block. Vs Scorch: Arc Wave, phase dash through them, unload shotgun, run. If you don’t have all your dashes or phase dash? Forget it. Vs Monarch: If energy siphon build, then engage with a friend and wittle her down asap. If rockets, you shouldn’t have issues dodging. If chaingun, then don’t let her spin up. If she has superior chasis, Better call Legion.
I am not sure if I agree with everything. Ronin: yeah, solid A tier. Basically anime-protagonist character. More you try - more successful you are no matter the enemy (k, maybe scorch puts you down to the ground) Northstar: something similar but without the anime-protagonist syndrom. Still high skill - high reward, however more things to keep in mind. No titan benefits that much from friendly titans as Northstar. Ronin is being punished for bad positioning, Northstar is being punished even more. Technically, you can control those things, but still you are restrained. Her gun is not the worst at killing pilots but totally not the best. There are things Ronin can compensate with mechanical skill, Northstar can't do that. Because of that I believe NS is in A tier below Ronin. Ion: I might be biased because I'm Ion main but this titan's versatility is its strongest side. There are no things Ion sucks at. Ion can't excel any titan (except tone) in their optimal range, however no titan can bully Ion. There is no natural counter for this bitch. Only thing Ion can't manage is being gangbanged by titans, for any other situation Ion has a tool to play around. The only way to win Ion is just being better. However, that is not the case for a Tone. Easily manageable defensive ability is a straight counter to the whole Tone mechanic, imo. Also laser shot is my favourite tool to deal with pilots. Still, I don't like the laser core. I feel this is mostly fun rather than powerful ultimate. Based on that I believe that Ion should be the lowest A. Not because you can kill everybody or make gamechanging play, but simply because you are not an easy prey to any titan. Scorch: I believe Scorch is not higher than B tier. He excels at his optimal range, this is the most dangerous titan when he gets close. His pressure is overwhelming. However, you have to be at your optimal range. If the map is too open or enemies can properly zone you, you are just an annoyance. His threat range is very short. I love his fat ass very much and it's easy to tell if scorch is skilled or not. Still, good enemy can prevent you from being a good pick. Legion: I dunno, solid B. He is also has a tool to be decent at any situation. However he is still isn't as versatile as Ion. Unlike laser cunt enemies can play around legion's distinct weaknesses: low speed and sustianed damage profile. Yeah, it's hard to kill him, however it's easy to decrease his usefulness. I can't think of anything to put him higher. Tone: I believe this titan is very underpowered. It's only purpose is to bully noobs. It's hard to play unpredictable as Tone. The whole mechanic is easily readable. Any defensive ability significantly decreases damage output of the Tone. On the good side, the gun is pretty good at killing pilots, arguably the best tool against them but that's it. In my opinion Tone is bottom B or C tier. Monarch: fucking boring. I hate Monarch. It's the most uninspiring titan. Just live it in S tier and forget about this Mary Sue of a titan.
Just got Titanfall 2 a few days ago and my goodness and its so much fucking fun
"That's a police car, neeeeeew"
Good thing this was made after the several tone nerfs lol
I only play the history mode but for my type of playing style I like Northstar, I used it to kill the last boss easy.
5:52 as a tone main, OP? I wish. That thing may have explosions, but unless you got good tracking, you ain't hitting a pilot out of the sky
Thing about scorch and Northstar is that they’re incredibly map-dependent. There are very few maps that favour scorch, and many many maps where he is outright unplayable, below F tier. Northstar on the other hand, due to being the polar opposite of scorch. Has many many maps where he is just an unstoppable killing machine, and very few maps where he doesn’t completely dominate.
Northstar can actually hold her own in close-quarters against a lot of the other titans, as long as she's not out in the open and uses her dashes well. Hell, I'm often able to win close-quarters fights against Ronins with Northstar, it usually comes down to who's better at the "block the railgun" mindgames. It's definitely not where she shines, but she still handles it better than Tone, base Monarch, and even some Ion builds.
@@cn8229 Well that’s because, contrary to popular belief, Northstar is a direct counter to ronin. You’d have to be exceptionally bad at Northstar to not beat a ronin. Considering you have roughly the same amount of mobility, and flight allows you to outright ignore arc wave, and tether traps when used correctly, basically end a ronin on their own. I think Northstar needs a lot of nerfs, I’d consider him to be the most overpowered titan, because there’s basically nothing you can’t do. It really fucks the game balance because there are multiple titans who outright cannot deal damage at long range, and Northstar being the most mobile, can ensure they always stay at those ranges. Not to mention that damage per shot is incredibly important. Burst damage always outperforms sustained damage.
@@michaeljcaboose1152 Northstar is a soft counter to Ronin if engaging at range. But Ronin is faster due to phase dash boosting speed, can tank by far the most damage out of any titan, and has a lot more burst damage than Northstar at close range. The matchup is map-dependant, but all things said and done it's fairly even. If anything, Northstar's only a hard counter to Scorch. Ion and Monarch tend to match up pretty well against Northstar, and even Tone can be a problem in teamfights, which most engagements tend to be in any of the Titan gamemodes. As for versatility, Ion and Monarch definitely have much more versatile kits than Northstar, though they are a bit slower if not running an extra dash. Really, the titans are reasonably well balanced outside of Scorch being the worst by a good margin. If anything is "broken" it's probably Monarch, although even then she's really not that overpowered unless you give her time to build up cores.
I'm a maxed ronin main, pretty good multi-player ranking, 817 win 182 lose, even tho ronin is a hit n run titan, I used it as a flanking titan, going in melee until I eject, often killing from 1 to 3 titans
Ion main right here Also I stand by that ronin is op, it’s the only titan to be able to tank nuke ejects to the face
Most titans:I can teleport, I can shoot lasers, I have a cool lock on mechanic Legion: I have big gun.
As a Monarch main Yummy yummy batteries
I love papa scorch but with this new opportunity to play again I think I want to try and master Ion. Everyone should master scorch enemy titans will be a thing of the past
THE SERVERS ARE BACK BABY!
fire
If you have mastered legion, you are the juggernaut. Ronins run and tones duck away. Scorch’s get close then boom, nuke ejection
Personally I really like legion for 1 reason: Minigun go brrrrrrrr. Also it gives me battlefront 2 heavy vibes. I do just really enjoy raw damage output.
My number 1 titan is Ion and got it maxed fast
I like the focus on impact here but I think you're missing the mark on a few of these eg "Ion shield is bad because people don't shoot at it" seems like a wild take - a dedicated button to mind control all projectile titans into not shooting is a very good button. It certainly struggles to get flashy clips for a montage, but that's a totally different set of criteria. Ronin's not actually terrible at fighting multiple titans by having two different defensive tools in both phase and shield block - I find his greatest threat is chip from pilot anti-tian weapons. It does not take very many pixel peek charge rifle hits to prevent ronin from being able to reasonably take a 1v1, and titanfall isn't a 1v1 game. Ronin's big strength is double dash excecute for invuln frames into phase into another excecute, which gives him insane teamfight presence. I think he's a stronger titan in XvX than as a duelist - it's too easy to damage race. Nuke ronin is also worth mentioning, although I think it's a waste of his potential. Ronin gets some of the biggest value out of smoke, which shut down several big threats to him and he has enough dashes to still survive. The bigger weakness of ion imo is the prevalence of titans that can circumvent the defensive power of vortex shield if they don't get mind controlled, which nulifies her only real defensive button, and the splitter rifle doesn't do enough damage to seriously threaten to damage race someone. Her only real advantage imo is the flexibility of laser shot in that it's both a very strong anti-pilot weapon, dramatically mitigating the chip she takes from pilot weapons, it's a moderate to strong burst damage opener in a titan duel, and it's an effective tool to at least contest a northstar dash peek. Also one of the few titans who can seriously justify double smoke or core start over dash kit. Legion's shield is real rough because it forces you to stay revved, which makes ammo capacity mandatory so you don't sit there with an empty gun just to block damage. His big advantage is his ability to damage race via shield while firing, and you'd be surprised at just how many titans he can race simultaneously. It's not an ideal choice for attrition for the points cost on losing him as he will almost certialy die to get the job done, but you can certainly make it worth the cost. Minigun is also decent against pilots, which like ion limits the impact of pilot weapons, giving him substantially more effective HP than his counterpart scorch despite the vlunerability to crits. Getting peeked by northstar is his big weakness - It's worth burning his dash to force a duel if you can get a good angle. Monarch's big win is upgrade 1 and energy thief, and while you can't do much to prevent upgrades, you can absolutely limit the sustain she gets from thief. The gun sucks real hard before the upgrade too, so she's kind of stuck sitting in an empty corner farming meter off grunts. Even with upgrades, her impact on the game is pretty low unless you're throwing titans at her over and over (Or in LTS or a similar titan heavy gametype) I think tone's big strength is the sustained peek war, which sucks for her because she gets outshot by a northstar who can just wait the shield out or cluster it. Her impact on the game is huge though, with tracker cannon oneshotting pilots and the sonar pulse giving the team wallhacks on them. I think she's best served focusing on pilot kills and only contesting titans when they force an engagement. Shield is a lot better than you describe because other titans can use it - drop a shield and let the legion go hog wild. The ability to hit rockets out of LOS with either double ping or double mark on crit should not be ignored either - big threat on heavy cover maps. I think people miss the mark pretty hard with scronch - his peek war is disgustingly good, and he can consistently out-duel a northstar at range via the no crits kit (forget what it's called). Like legion, the big strength is damage racing, but he has the advantage of not being crit and the damage race being aoe - if you have three decent titans try and burst you, you can still very consistently take down at least two through the sheer value of fire shield and the fire-and-forget damage of traps. All of his damage being able to stack is why scorch is a threat in CQC, but it's important to not forget that the launcher is a crazy strong peek war weapon through passive damage, and he can still get thermite traps a pretty crazy distance with good aim. If you've played any other source engine projectile game, you can just transfer all that skill over to him and instantly farm. I think his real weakness isn't range, but is rather pilot chip - the gun only having one shot means he has to pick between shooting one pilot or shooting one titan, and while he has ways of threatening two titans, he has no way to threaten two pilots at once, and even if he does, he then has to ignore the titans. Even just one pilot picking at him with an archer completely shuts scorch down because he can't actually respond. His core is actually fairly mediocre unless your opponents are touching tips - you really have to either be fishing for a burst kill or hit several titans for it to be worth the insanely long animation lock. Sucks that the defensive kit is fairly mandatory. Also a total mention for having the only custom titan model on the modded client, with the most disgusting SCP vibes. Broadly agree on the northstar take, although it's important to underline just how much the burst damage lets her damage race anything with a crit spot then spam dash for the excecute invuln, even at close range. Very strong when played well, fairly vulnerable to pilots through lack of multi-target threat. Very vulnerable to scorch, even at range - railgun getting no crits sucks, thermite launcher hurts like hell and a good scorch should be able to time a shot with the cooldown between dashes. It makes the trade way more even than you'd think, and scorch can do it for way longer than she can.
Fun fact: in the starting cutscene you see when you start a new game when monarch Titan (or BT-7274 idk) when they stick they arm through the broken window to pick up the pilot when they go to put them inside the titan’s arm clips through the wall
The more you know
@@EmmetTheSeal agreed bro
This is like the perfect game for AOT fans to experience it in a fps perspective. Except everyone gets to be Levi and a titan shifter at the same time
I LIKE MONARCH!!! Reminds me of Bt-7274
Also she like the dougther for bt she has the same body desigh but she more power ful but bt is more mature and the best titan i literary cried when bt sacrifice in the ending
As a sentient streetcleaner you think I would be a scortch main but nope im a ion main im really good at it too
Going to Northstar when played right Mike wasouski-i mean Northstar can be terrifying I sit around the slightly annoying mark
Well i main ronin and love using his ability’s fighting a monarch is difficult to come out Victorious so I think that the ranking was fair
I have some major problems with your Ion rating in this video, because anyone who's played against a good Ion player would know that Ion is an S-tier titan that's a nightmare for any team to deal with. 1) The laser tripwire isn't useless, in fact it's one of the best anti-mobility utility in the game. Firstly, you have to use it with the zero point tripwire perk, which makes it cost zero energy to use, and honestly, it's by far the best perk to use with Ion. The tripwire is easy to shoot down, but it isn't meant for ranged enemies, it's meant for slowing down CQC titans like Scorch and Ronin. Once placed down, an approaching Ronin has a few options to stop it, but all of these options either require it to slow down and shoot, or use up an ability in its kit (phase dash or arc wave). Either way, the tripwire serves its purpose. It also has unexpectedly large blast radius, so it isn't uncommon to have pilots get blown up by it. 2) I don't get your critique about the vortex shield. You're implying that the main purpose of the shield is the return damage, but honestly, it's just a perk, not the main purpose. The main purpose of the shield is to hold back enemy fire until you can reach a safe position. Damaging an enemy with the return fire is just the cherry on top. 3) You are seriously underestimating the potency of laser shot. It's a pinpoint accurate hitscan projectile that can one-shot pilots, and deal sizeable damage on titans when hitting the weak spot (which is very easy to do thanks to its 100% accuracy). It's probably the best sniping tool in the game, since even Northstar's railgun doesn't have the hitscan capabilities of this weapon.
In my opinion, all titans are equally as good. It's all dependent on the user. As you've mentioned for basically every titan, in the right hands, every titan is a complete menace. (Except monarch. Monarch is OP and shouldn't exist)
Monarch is based off of the Expedition kit in the campaign, excluding the vortex shield and switching it to an arc shield. Unfortunately you can't fully make the entire upgrade since the two stage three upgrades are XO-16 burst and lock-on missiles.
Before Monarch came out, I used Legion. Afterwards, I started playing Monarch as a hit and run kind of thing. You can literally get all 3 cores without damage to your titan. The shield siphon and rearm are so OP. Middle rack is good at taking down ground units, or peeling off enemy shields. Always get the XO-16 mod as upgrade one, it gives you 10 more rounds and drains shields fast as fuck. Also to add, once you get all 3 cores, you can pretty much just get full shields whenever using the core. So it’s just that much more OP.
Titanfall 3 will be amazing game, with all the Apex lore and characters, the weapons of apex and if they rehearse the TF2 formula well enough tf3 would be a gameplay and story gem
I don't think it will ever come out
Can you rank every zmech in garden warfare 2?
scorch is my main ive managed to get insanley good at leding shots even pilots who are grapeling through the air
Honestly I think you underrated Legion a little. The reason for me saying this is because Legion's 2 main counters are scorch and Ion due to their manual shields(shields you have total control over) if neither of them are being used by a good player a decent player using Legion can relatively easy to go head to head in a 2 on 1 or in the hands of a really good or lucky player even more difficult odds with the fight being 50/50. I'm not saying he should be S tier but he should be at least low A tier to even high A tier.
