Villager Popularity List - Updated

[Chrystina]

Oh boi. The guide's probably going to change a lot. I can't even imagine how hard that's gonna be on you :/

Good luck Chrys! We're super excited to see how things have really changed in the VTP. A lot definitely has, in a short period of time. Since it's way easier for people to get villagers now, and there are 50 other villagers now. That's a big number. Also, I noticed in your signature that you also have a favorite villager returning. I hope you find him soon hehe. He's really cute ^^

Surprisingly it made it a lot easier, haha! Less voids = one less thing I need to take into account for with ranking c: and thank you!! I'm still deciding who I should move out to make room for Dobie though omg. Debating getting another cartridge just for all these returning cutie villagers. I hope you ended up getting Cleo!

I did, actually! Someone gave her to me, and I feel blessed <3 It has been a little hard deciding who to sacrifice for all of these new villagers. I love so many of them! And I'm glad to hear that it's actually easier for you to work on the guide! That's fantastic. I cannot even imagine how much work it was ;A;

click here for general info & faq *please read the faq before asking questions! PSA: ACNL update *11/11 update A few questions have been asked regarding whether I will be including the new villagers in the next update. As of right now, you cannot trade certain new villagers via wifi, so the list will remain the same, for now, in terms of villager count. To obtain Epona, Ganon, W.Link, Cece, Viche, Inkwell, Felyne, Toby, Chelsea, Chai, Marty, Etoile, Rilla, Holden, and Medli, you will have to purchase the amiibo cards yourself. With the December 2nd launch, the 50 unranked villagers found at the bottom of this post will eventually be included in each tier.​

Thank you for the update, Chrystina. I've noticed quite a few changes with my villagers.
Positive changes:
* Diana climbed three spots to #2 of Tier 1 (after ranking #5 last update), right behind Stitches, who regained the top spot for the first time in over a year.
* Kyle climbed into Tier 1, well deserved if you ask me. So now he joins Julian and Marshal as the third smug villager in the Top Tier.
* Maple once again climbed back into Tier 1, she deserves it so much.
* Flora came back from the brink, jumping from Tier 4 back into Tier 3 again.
Negative changes:
* Beau slipped four spots to #6 of Tier 1 after ranking #2 last update.
* Deirdre dropped back to Tier 3 after moving up to Tier 2 last update.
Other than that, most of my villagers stayed more or less than same rank.

Chrystina you murdered Molly ;-;
Good Job on update though

JULIAN ISN'T NUMBER ONE

 

[Sibero78]

Yay Stitches <3

 

[N a t]

Just looking at the LF thread I can tell that Ketchup and Raddle are gonna be SUPER popular when the 50 get ranked >>

 

[Blueskyy]

Hopefully Ellie is mid tier. I don't want her to become too overrated. She's only noticed by a few so far

 

[Paperboy012305]

Just looking at the LF thread I can tell that Ketchup and Raddle are gonna be SUPER popular when the 50 get ranked >>

I sure hope so. Honestly, I thought Raddle would be tier 5.....

 

[N a t]

Once I have my babies I don't care what tier they're in lel

 

[Chrystina]

Raddle is definitely unique, so I can see him having a spot in the higher tiers, ketchup obviously yeah a high tier 2 or tier 1. I might be increasing each amount within tiers by 5. so 5 more villagers have potential for tier 1, 2. etc. better than throwing w bunch of them into tier 5, for sure

Hopefully Ellie is mid tier. I don't want her to become too overrated. She's only noticed by a few so far

I think Ellie will at least stay out of tier 5, tier 3 maybe? she has such a nice color, I'll be shocked if she's unnoticed. overrated though, not sure D:

 

[Believe]

Curious to see how Olive and Dobie place as well They seem to be rather popular

 

[N a t]

I am seriously hyped to see how the new villagers Tier lol. It's like a competition. And I wonder if the VTP will be less busy because more people will just buy the cards, or if the VTP will be more busy because people would rather get their villagers for free on here?

 

[Flare]

b.u.m.p

 

[toadsworthy]

I came here because I wanted to see how the new villagers would be worked into this... and shed a tear for poor Chrys in managing it all

So can you get the 50 welcome amiibo characters through wifi trade or nah?
because Piper I miss you so freaking much

You sure can!

 

[toadsworthy]

You sure can!

hm, has circulation been pretty good for them?
not gonna lie though, the thought of updating all my towns for this is anxiety inducing.....

 

[Mink777]

I can see Maddie being a low tier 2/high tier 3 at first. but I wouldn't be surprised if she is a tier 4 because I haven't seen much of her in the LF thread. She is pretty much the female version of Walker who is a tier 5, so who knows what could happen there.

A few people have the new cards, but I'm thinking circulation will be a lot more increased when they're released in North america.
