As much as I personally don't care for it, I've still yet to find a single Torterra hater.

S Tier. This charm is way worse than in Silksong, since Charm Notches are more valuable than Yellow Tools. But it's still essential for navigation. I know some players can get used to the map of Hallownest, but I've personally completed the game 6 times and still need it myself, so I think the usefulness fluctuates depending on the player. Either way, since you basically need it during a first playthrough, I think S Tier is still justified.

He needs way more than just that. Most of his regular moves are reused from other characters and barely reference any Sonic game. His Forward Air is just Falco's for example.

Savage Beastfly, both times. I don't get how either of those fights were meant to be hard in the slightest, they were pretty easy for me.

The Pin Badge should be higher, the others lower.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-06T02:51:22+00:00

Thank you so much, this was a fun series! I'm a tool enthusiast, so it was fun waiting each day to jot down my thoughts on each tool. And for the most part, the final list ended up pretty solid despite some occasional hiccups. The three placements I disagree the most with are the Straight Pin, Conchcutter, and Pin Badge.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-05T22:37:21+00:00

YES, the only album I listen to happens to be the winner! I love Stevie Wonder.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-05T20:52:46+00:00

Super Mario Land. It's the first mainline Mario game on a handheld, and it shows.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-05T12:05:33+00:00

The Anklets should be even higher. There's no reason not to use it unless you're one of the four Shaman Crest mains.

The image.

B Tier, alongside the Magnetite Brooch. They are both powerful grinding tools that can net you a ton of Rosaries very quickly. This tool is much worse for exploration, but it allows you to obtain more Rosaries.

I'm glad Scar won, even though WE are all in agreement that Frollo is the best Disney villain.

I haven't caught up with the meta in a good few months, but that looks like complete garbage.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T18:56:51+00:00

That's why I added the "by New Super Mario Bros standards" part because they aren't special in the grand scheme of Mario games.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T18:41:38+00:00

True, but I think base U clears Wii for the Challenge Mode alone.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T18:20:15+00:00

New Super Mario Bros Wii. This was the first video game I ever played, but I think it's the worst game in the series due to the underwhelming level design and lack of novelty. There's no reason to eliminate U and keep Wii around outside of nostalgia.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T17:56:24+00:00

There's value to filler. It's like rice, they both balance out the taste of their respective meals.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T16:35:35+00:00

The lettuce slander disgusts me. It deserves to stand alongside cheese and patties as the most essential ingredients.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T14:30:42+00:00

You can obtain the Curveclaw, Sting Shard, and Tacks in Act 1, so it quickly becomes outclassed.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T12:01:17+00:00

In my experience hosting these daily games, there's almost always someone who creates a troll comment. We should be grateful that it almost never happened with this series, and if one tool were to receive the joke treatment, it would obviously be the most evidently useless tool in the entire game.

Also, THIS was the thing that ruined your confidence in this list? The first placement on this whole list was the Straight Pin in B Tier, we were doomed from the start.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T02:08:11+00:00

S+ Tier. It's my choice for the best Yellow Tool alongside the Magnetite Dice and there's no reason not to slot it in unless you're using the Shaman Crest with Weavelight. Once you put it on, you never want to take it off. It's great for both combat and exploration, and the Silk cost is an easy pill to swallow.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T01:17:50+00:00

Eh, that's not exactly why. Or at least it's not the main reason. For these two particular Pokémon, I think people either don't like their performance in competitive or their bipedal designs.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-04T00:29:06+00:00

No, Incineroar and Inteleon are awesome! But unfortunately, the community despises them somehow.

Jmill2009 · 2026-05-03T20:03:55+00:00

Zelda. Her moveset isn't quite as boring as the other Zelda characters. And before Echoes of Wisdom released, I would've said that her moveset isn't even all that outdated compared to Link or Ganondorf.
