So you guys guys know I've been doing the Mileena Thread. And I've been wondering, where would you place Mileena on a tier list? Me personally, I would place her in the Mid to Upper-Mid tier.
 
I don't believe in, or abide by tier lists in this game. It's balanced enough that a character is what you make of it. The top "tier" fighters can be horrible in an amateur's hands and a bottom "tier" fighter can be unstoppable in the right player's hands.
 
while i agree with raddus, if i had to choose, id probably put her at middle of the pack overall, shes a good anti zoner though.
 
I'd put her in mid tier although tier lists don't really matter to me I picked my characters according to who I like playing as not who's the "highest tier"
 
pretty much me too, love noob.

tho, according to tom brady all my aesthetically and gameplay pleasing characters are s or a+ tier lol.

noob, reptile, csz, kano...gotta lovem
 
Yeah, I've enjoyed Ermac since his UMK3 debut. His moves and red ninja motif were aesthetically pleasing. I don't care what tiers say, I see more bad Ermacs online than good ones.
 
Mid tier maybe. she has some nice combos but at the same time her specials are very punishable. Keep in mind frame rate data is also a factor but TYM doesnt have any for her yet.
 
I'd go with High-Mid Tier.

Mil doesn't have any programmed High-Low Mixups. However her low starter can combo into Ball Roll which makes her a very viable and dangerous character.

Sure, her specials are super punishable on block, but that just means you can't freely spam them willy-nilly. In terms of applying ranged pressure, Soaring Sai is all you need. Otherwise, she's as solid as they get and I'm glad I started playing her.
 
High mid tier, I heard Tom Brady said she is more or less A+ stuff ....

Mileena is more or less, balanced : her special moves are very punishable, perhaps, the most punishable in the game, who knows ?

Anyway, Mileena has 2 deadly overhead moves / combos ( split kick and boot down) that, if hits just once, can start some basic , but, very BnB combos, good ones. And her roll ball , once connects , is the key to do others good combos, so, you pay the price to try these moves, expecting them to fail, or give your good chance to do damage in the opponent ..... your try, you take the chances and the risky factor .....

That's how you should play as Mileena. The majority of her specials leave her open, however her BnB's are where she shine. Not particularly damaging, but very deceptive and a delight visually. Keeping your opponent guessing is key.

Her specials are meant to counter and punish any mistakes your enemy makes, rather than to be used offensively. If you are using her Ball Roll and Teleport Drop and they are constantly being blocked, it's a clear indication that you are using her specials wrong. Other than that, I agree she's a balanced character, not Nightwolf balanced, but still balanced.
