Character class archetypes

[Zack Fair]

When the original stat graphs came out, the most common stat configuration was:
ATK 3
DEF 2
SPD 2
TEC 3

Which is a pretty balanced stat config.

3223 represent!

Because my logic was that Zack is fairly offensive, in that he can hit hard and is good at doing so, but is also no slouch at movement and defense. He does everything at a superhuman level in his original canon, and 3223 translated that over the best in my eyes (and clearly several others').

Coincidentally, I see a lot of builds with 0 in DEF, I always try to make sure people do justice to that. It's really for people who want to be frail mages and such, considering you will be less resilient than the AVERAGE HUMAN BEING. Most people really need at least a 1.

Honestly, when I see a 0 in any stat my first thought is that there's something unusual being represented. Best example I can think of is Miranda/Xehanort's former alt Zangetsu having 0 SPD because it was just a possessed sword lying around. That's not usually the case, but my first thought is, regardless, something EXTRA out of the ordinary is going on with that character. I just can't wrap my head around the average Prime being below a 1 in any stat.

That said, much respect to those that rock a 0 and pull it off.

4/3/2/1

Pretty sure this is Gamzee's archetype. I have a stat increase so technically, Im 4/3/2/2 but yeh. I'll tidy up this post with a hard counter and junk tomorrow

I have the exact same build for Yajima, including the stat increase.
He may not be anything like as powerful as Gamzee right now, but once I finally get around to buying some moves...
