shoutout to when eggman literally grabbed sonic and held him underwater trying to drown him in sonic x

He’s almost always there, and you found a way to make him not as high as you think. Nice job dude.

3 things I want to point out: 1. In Sonic Unleashed, Eggman didn't want to control a beast that was beyond his control, he didn't want to control Dark Gaia, he just wanted to harness Dark Gaia's energy to use on his things, at the end when Dark Gaia was whole again, he just told Dark Gaia to crush Sonic but that didn't work at all 2. And in Sonic Frontiers, Eggman ALSO didn't want to control a beast that was beyond his control, Eggman came to the Starfall Islands in search of the secrets of the Ancient technologies, so he could study it and create better machines, weapons, etc. The Cyberspace is where all the Ancients knowlodge and memories are stored so Eggman wanted those for his own selfish reasons, but during the process he accidentally activated the entire archipelago's security system made to protect anyone from freeing The End, making everything be activated on the islands, the guardians and titans appearing, Cyberspace locking everyone in, the Chaos Emeralds being locked in vaults, etc. 3. It wasn't Sage who locked up Sonic's friends, she was helping Eggman on the outside since he couldn't leave Cyberspace, yes, but Tails, Knuckles and Amy were locked inside of Cyberspace for the same reason Eggman did, the Island was trying to secure The End from being free, Sonic was the only one not locked because he was the only one who could freely travel in and out of Cyberspace, that's even the reason why The End called him "the key" and wanted him to do the dirty work by defeating the titans, which would open the Cyberspace making everyone being able to get out of it, freeing Tails, Knuckles and Amy like Sonic wanted (and Eggman too by an extent), but also freeing The End in the process since it was also trapped in there just like Eggman, Tails, Knuckles and Amy Sage KNEW about The End and wanted to keep it away from being free, that's why she tells Eggman what he did was really silly, and that's the reason she is telling Sonic to leave the whole game while constantly attacking it, while she also is trying to find a way to free Eggman from Cyberspace without freeing The End aswell

S3&K he napalms a whole jungle and actually fires the death egg to reignite a volcano, elite

11:43 "This dude was gonna take out your enemies. Why didn't you take him out after?" It's a matter of pride, yo. I can't beat Frankenstein's monster in the original Castlevania, but if someone beats him for me and I then kick their ass, it's not gonna make me feel accomplished, because I still know I couldn't beat him.

I was about to say SA2 is an easy Elite tier but I keep forgetting that Shadow did outplay him there lol

at first he think he's bowser and he keep kidnapping the princess got me rolling on the floor ngl, also when metal sonic's turn?

WERE PISSING ON THE MOON WITH THIS ONE!!!

I love that Eggman had a backup Egg Carrier only for Perfect Chaos to immediately destroy it.

I Have a Fresh New Idea Rank how Useless every character in Super Smash Bros Brawl is, Specifically, Subspace Emmisary!

Ranking How USELESS King Dedede is in Every Kirby Game Ranking How USELESS Percy is in Every Thomas Episode & Movie

Very happy to see Sonic CD be elite! The lengths he goes in that game is truly horrifying, to the point where I personally consider it to be the darkest Sonic game of them all, even more than SA2 and Shadow. He’s a complete psychopath in Sonic CD, and every single bad future and it’s music will make you feel awful every time. You can’t do anything, so don’t even try. Horrifying. Nightmare level villainy, if you ask me.

Hey Jeremy it's me the guy who won the gamcube, I love your "how useless is" series

Notice how all of Eggman's "elite" games, involve him winning for someduration of time? I feel like that's not a good enough metric for his threat levels given that he is just as clearly a MAJOR threat in games like Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure. I think there needs to be another tier that reads something like "Just Shy of Success/Elite" cause a lot of the ones that got placed in the "A Major Threat" tier feel like they range in threat levels. I guess I'm saying that the "A Major Threat" tier needs to be separated into 2 tiers so that the stuff that would qualify as "more likely to end the world" could be properly separated from the stuff that "is only threatening to x specific character".

in sonic generations Eggman should at least be typical bad guy because yes the 2 Eggman's did lose you must remember there are also 2 sonic's in that game

Next how useless is Sonic in EVERY Sonic Game?

Sonic Rush games for Eggman boss are really crazy for me that I really loved. The egg wizard & egg salamander being Multiversal+ power of the stars, having magical abilities The sheer force of its power can create earthquakes and when channeled, it can destroy entire planets. On its own, the Egg Wizard is capable of flight at speeds matching that of Super Sonic and Burning Blaze. It can also launch excessively large missiles and restore itself at will. I believe the egg wizard is also Eggman's most powerful weapon besides the time eater,final egg blaster etc. I love the Eggman bosses so much:3

4:45 "I'VE COME TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT-"

4:35 "DID YOU SEE THAT HOT JPEG FOOTAGE? IT WAS JUST-"

Eggman Nega is confirmed to be from Silver's future and as Eggman's descendant. It's never clarified well in the source materials. But in all likelihood, Eggman Nega poised himself as an alternate counterpart of Eggman to make sure he doesn't… you know… get written out of existence by accident by revealing he's his descendant. Also, speaking of Rivals, Eggman actually plays a crucial role in Rivals 2 because he's always in communication with Shadow about Nega's plans. I don't know where he'd be ranked here seeing as he doesn't play the villain here. He's implicitly in Rivals but he's been into a card by the start of the game, so he'd be ranked Worthless.

Who else can never look at Sonic Adventure 2 the same way again after the fandub? All I hear anymore is "I've come to make an announcement, Shadow the Hedgehog's a bi-"

the cunning bald egg finally got a video

Would give extra point for Eggman by aiming and shooting Sonic like an insane supersonic bullet at The End on the Sonic Frontiers DLC. Yeah it wasn't evil but it was useful for everyone and that scene was epic as fuck

Now ranking every metal sonic from useless to elite

Nice vid question can you rate how useful sonic character tier list?

Sonic rush adventure eggman calls the white mustache man nega💀

You barely touch his actual plan in Frontier. It’s not elite, but I will say its menacing.

He is the eggman

Honestly, Egghead was really close to Shadow’s standards. but Sonic Heroes is a WORTHLESS Edit: HOLY GEEZ 30 LIKES?

EGGstraordinary

Eggman: enslaves a whole race *Typical bad guy tier*

*The most moustachioed villain ever, Eggman. I love him, not only on the design level, first he gets divinities, I help Sonic and then he also has a daughter.*

11:42 okay I figure this was just a throwaway line for the sake of making a point but I wanna get into this "This dude was gonna take down your arch-enemies, why didn't you just take him out after?" in issue #14 of the IDW comics, Dr. Starline attempts to destroy Sonic (and Silver) in a well-thought out and executed plan, which appears to succeed. Despite this apparent success however, Eggman is enraged, saying: "The hedgehog is MINE to destroy! I could carpet bomb him any day! That's not enough- that's NOT THE POINT! I have to BEAT HIM! I have to prove I'm SUPERIOR!" Eggman doesn't just want Sonic to be defeated. He specifically wants to be the one to defeat Sonic, and anyone trying to beat him to the punch is his enemy as well.

You forgot to mention in SA2 Eggman also blows up GUN's military base/island.

Did dude literally forget that in SA2 he had a stranglehold on the whole plot and also blew up prison island in a successful operation to cover his tracks? The hero’s had to always play catch up with Eggman throughout the story and he literally almost killed Sonic. I think SA2 is in the elite teir.

4:51 yeah with his super laser piss

Hey to be fair in Sonic Generations the two Robotniks had to go against two Sonics. I mean if one Sonic can beat one Robotnik, how could two Robotniks beat two Sonics? So I don't exactly agree with you on this one. The other one I don't quite agree with is actually Sonic 4 episode 1. I think he should be kind of dumb in that because he is literally doing the same bosses all over again with the third one actually being a little different but that's it.

YAY MY WISH HAPPENED (I love your videos)

Imagine showing somone this list to somone without giving the title, seeing forces at the top and heroes at the bottom

Poor Eggman being the Eggclown almost all the time Bowser and Eggman were defeated, now it's time to see if Ganondorf or Ridley can give a better fight

As much as I have a bias towards certain games, I agree with the ranking. Nice job.

Friendly reminder that all of 06's character designs are peak AF, Eggman included. I'll never pretend it's not good, I'll keep waiting for when the world also stops pretending as well. Thank you for your time gentlemen, move along now.

We need to find the secret to his perfect mustache..

Eggman wins the minute he finds an allpowerful deity that does not betray him he wins😂

In the case of Sonic Frontiers, Eggman didn't just not understand the full power of The End, he didn't even know The End existed, Eggman was simply trying to harness the power of the Ancients' technology, he had no idea The End was a thing. Sage was the one of trapped Eggman in Cyberspace to protect him from The End while also failing to tell him what she was doing. Probably cause she knew that if she told Eggman about The End, he would try release The End from its prison so he can harness its power

Perhaps you could do How Useless Super Sonic is in Every Sonic Game! That'd be a really cool one to see!

YESSSSS!!! I HAVE WAITED LONG FOR THIS ONE!

Definitely should have included Sonic Battle!

2:19 You forgot to add the "Yes" 1-Up sound for Elite

Eggman character development on Frontiers was emotional

Sonic 2 is elite tier eggman,he made metropolis zone

Now I want a video like this for Dr. Wily because of how often the games portray him as just pathetic. I genuinely want to see if even a single Wily appearance would end up in Elite tier.

Awesome Video Bro! Eggman's Nintendo counterpart is Master Kohga Leader Of The Yiga Clan.

eggman was one of the few characters in forces that I think was actually written well and actually makes him seem competent every step of the way.

I love how you glossed over the fact that eggman literally erased time and space in generations

Eggman is literally out for blood in Sonic CD, happy to see it in elite tier.

Eggman outrunning Sonic is Sonic letting him get ahead.

day 2 of asking you to do "Ranking How useless Mario is in every Spin off"

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BRO IS BUILT LIKE AN EGG !?!? WHAT EVEN IS AN EGG !!!???

5:39 this is what I came for

Are we just not gonna tell Jeremy that eggman built a literal TITAN out of scrap metal in Sonic Mania? And that he almost killed sonic at the end?

I understand why Heroes' Eggman is in the Worthless Tier since he got captured by Neo Metal Sonic and then got beat up by Team Chaotix, but he did also give Team Chaotix their missions. I bring this up because many of the missions involve stymying Neo Metal Sonic's plans. For example: Rescuing Chao in Ocean Palace and Lost Jungle prevents Neo Metal Sonic from getting more Chaos Data. Destroying the enemies in Grand Metropolis and Power Plant liberates the city from Neo Metal Sonic's control and prevents him form stealing its energy. Destroying the capsules in Bullet Station destroys the Shadow Androids within, or at least destroying ways for Neo Metal Sonic to transport them. The rest of the missions serve the purpose of guiding Team Chaotix to where Eggman is imprisoned so he can be freed as soon as possible. Despite being locked in a room for most of the game, he did manage to be involved throughout the game's story. This could be grounds to move Heroes' Eggman up to at least the Kinda Dumb Tier, but having a game in the Worthless Tier is better for content.

10:33 the way he says silly billy 😂

Dr. Eggman is one of the greatest video games villains there is! He may be goofy at times, but there are also other times where he can be very threatening especially when he blows up half the moon or holding Amy at gunpoint in Sonic Adventure 2. Eggman is a little bit goofy in the later games especially in Sonic Boom even though Mike Pollock still did a great job voicing him just like Deem Bristow did in the games.

In eggman's defense for the Rush games and Generations, there WERE two sonics, so...

In two of the DIC cartoons, Robotnik was NOT useless. He actually CONQUERED Mobius.

What if you rated the main characters, like Mario, Sonic and Link? Pretty silly but it came through my mind a while ago

7:11 - You kinda glossed over the parts where Eggman and Eggman Nega beat up Blaze with the Egg Salamander to get the Sol Emeralds, used the Sol Emeralds to tap into The Power of the Stars (a primordial cosmic power that can reshape the multiverse), almost merged Sonic’s universe with the Sol Dimension with the now Super-level Egg Salamander, and took on two Super forms at once in an even fight. Also, the Egg Salamander is one of the few Eggman machines that can outright hurt a Super form. So this is easy bump to Pretty Menacing.

Can we get a video on how useless toad is?

Damn Robotnik is dumb 💀

No Knuckles' Chaotix where the bad ending involves a giant Mecha Sonic burning a city down?

Awesome. If I may suggest it, what about the Game Gear, Master System and Arcade titles? (Sonic 2 GG, Sonic Blast, SegaSonic the Hedgehog…)

7:16 - EWWWWW!! WHAT IS THAT!?! Had me rolling! XD XD XD

I did not know he had a first name 👀

9:20 so you mean when i keep going in the fridge hoping there is food i like💀

in 06 after all he still does a lot to stop sonic and friends, apart from wanting to harness the princess power, the usual bases full of robots, he makes sonic and dark team fall into a trap blocking them into the future so he could do what he wanted, and escaped sonic many times with the princess, the real bad thing would have happened because of a malfunction killing him and elise but sonic avoided that, but in the final area i recall that he helped coordinate as usual the other characters to fetch the emeralds (this is at least what i remember)

Pls do video about how useless toad is 😭🙏

I'd have to rate the Sonic Advance games higher, since he succeeds in kidnapping all of Sonic's friends in 2, everyone but Sonic and Tails in 3, and intentionally splits the world in 3.

@jeremymklinger Your explanations left me no room to disagree, and you made me laugh out loud at several moments which is a rare reaction for me from any YT video. You did an elite job sir, well done.

I kept feeling like shouting "ROBOTNIK!" every time I heard Eggman. My memory has that villain as Dr. Ivo Robotnik

love the vid! idk if you misspoke but iirc the robots weren’t “controlled” by flickies in adventure, they were powered by them

Imagine Conquer the world and telling your enemies 💀

You forgot his attempt at the freight marketing in 95, when woody and Buzz has to reach Andy before is too late

4:48 But he’s going go higher

Hey can I ask a question what music did you used in Sonic frontier box art intro plss I love that song

Hard disagree on Sonic Rush. There may have been two Eggmen, but they weren’t fighting just one Sonic. Blaze was there too. The two Eggmen almost ripped apart two different dimensions, Rush absolutely deserves higher.

Sonic Forces has C-tier gameplay with an S-tier story.

I don't mind Eggman's design in 06, I think it's pretty cool. Here I said it

“How. Can a man. That fat move fricking fast?!” - Sonic (Sonic Shorts Vol.8)

Please Rank how Usable (Aka How oftem they would the best choice for the game) Pikachu is in every Pokemon Game (Including Mustery Dungeon and Pokepark)

I don’t know if Dr Eggman is a better scientist than Dr Wily.

3:04 RIP Hyper Sonic Mention

I'd consider Eggman in Sonic Adventure 2 pretty elite! I mean he pissed on the moon!

Hm, I could also not forget the one to add when you vouched for CD-Eggman being the most brutal that it wasn't even mentioned that if during that one race that everyone was popular with, that if Metal Sonic failed, despite being his front-liner of the game, was killed by the Doom Beam and he didn't even show signs to care in the game at all, making him a bit more cruel even than Lord Freiza there for the "cost of failure = death" treatment. (well, we know he simply rebuilt Metal Sonic later on, but....) Also I do agree with the other users here too, but I have to add this: Despite Sonic Forces being somewhat a bit disappointing but not awful, the fact that Sonic had to go with his younger self AND *you* as two others makes this side serious; He is a pain to Sonic, while Infinite is a pain to *you* just the same, yikes!

1:34 I saw an animation that better explains this being Sonic gets tired from fighting Silver Sonic. Which is why bro gets away so easily.

So Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine isn't not good enough for you? It's canon man, CANON! You had one job to bring glory to this game, and you shoved it under the rug...

I predicted from the start that Sonic Hero’s would be his only worthless tier

Pretty nice video. I've been liking a lot of these ranking videos. One question: I notice you haven't been included "Sonic and the Secret Rings" and "Sonic and the Black Knight," in these rankings. Do you mind if I ask the reason?

3:29 Are we just gonna ignore the bad ending with the massive mech teased at the end?

Eggman Nega is not an eggman from another dimension but a descendant of eggman he just really liked going to other dimensions. That's why he is both an enemy of silver and blaze even after the split of those two characters after sonic 06
