A LOT CHANGED!! Play THESE HEROES in your RANKED Games! | Predecessor Tier List

[@Empti_]

I didn't want to type this because it sounds a bit ''condescending''' in my eyes however with so many comments I need to clarify that this Tier-list is based off Diamond-Paragon Ranked play. I would like to also say, that Morigesh, Khaimera, Countess & Grux will be higher up if I based this of Bronze-Gold Ranked play, whilst Heroes like Wraith, Feng Mao & Sevarog probably fall a few ranks due to being harder to play/understand.

[@HMZXHD]

The only thing that hasn't changed is Empti's dominance on the battlefield

[@n7jaeger974]

would def like to see a feng mao solo and jungle vid to see why he is so good right now

[@gg8470]

Me too🤣

[@davidmorales7371]

An interesting idea for 2 videos would be a follow up to this tier list. One video would be taking each hero in "C" and "F" teir and going over what changes; anything from minor to reworks, you think the devs could make to improve the heroes. The second would be the opposite, take the heroes in "S" (which are usually broken or overperforming) and go over what changes they could make to bring them within the "A" to "A+" teir.

[@jamesroyal5334]

Argus is still very strong. not the strongest against tanks sure but with how fast his wave clear is he can roam and kill from jungle with ult or push lanes and basically get a free kill on solo lane with a stun, rmb, ult combo. Im shocked hes not banned or even picked much

[@jamesroyal5334]

not to mention hes still a pretty good support

[@SomewhereTrying]

I think Argus is S/A+ as a G1 player. The nerf to his stun is rough, but the QOL change to have a more accurate animation is a buff. I run FULL mage Argus support (Mega, Wraith, Scepter, Noxia, Caustica, O Crown). With that build, you can 1v1 carries or even 1v2 against a carry and support (depending on the support). Since Magic defense items are a little lacking, you do crazy damage in lane and late game. If ran mid, you can execute people from the river if your duo or offlaner has vision on a low enemy that’s hitting a “safe back” under tower.

[@kennethbrownjr9073]

Ngl Serath has been ridiculous melts carries way too fast and can out scale people pretty fast

[@bondboyz2]

Yeah the serath avg pick is crazy to me jungle And off lane I think she is very strong

[@hermanjohnson9180]

I've used her as ADC in Gold Rank and have done quite well. She's just a ADC melee. Once we get Yin, you might see some Serath Carrys. Then all of a sudden she's a good hero.

[@kennethbrownjr9073]

@@hermanjohnson9180 I remember I used to use Yin mid and offlane crazy reach for a melee

[@luisjrsantiago]

Hey Empti, can we see a Greystone video? Just want to see how you play in the jungle. Amazing work thanks man!

[@Empti_]

planned for sure!

[@Lokuzdeckel]

Play the Shinbi give her the stage she deserves. Everyone else is hate criming her (i dont care: mid offlane or jungle doesn´t matter to me. Her music shines in every role)

[@hambusher]

How do you deal with fey as howie in mid? The vertical hitbox on her ult pulls me out of mine every time.

[@Empti_]

It's a really bad matchup for Howie

[@derekgunnels4856]

So for low and gold rank put Feng mao and Wraith down. Put Morigesh, Grux, and Khai up. Everything else matches up at any difficulty from my experience. P.S. I appreciate the Shinbi love. She feels solid in this meta.

[@Empti_]

I'd agree with that one yeah

[@Hoon_Dogg]

thank you for putting mori in f tier. i still wanna see you do muriel mid though

[@otohh]

Finally someone other than me has put Mori where she belongs. Seein Mori is almost a guaranteed win in lane

[@FatalREM]

I downloaded this game with full intentions of grinding it as my main game, but is there a point? As someone who used to play league of legends for money and quit since about 2019, the return of Paragon had me ecstatic. However, whenever i try and lock in for a grind session, the queues seem to make it impossible. Even leveling my account is a significant time investment, are ranked matches any different from just normal queues? And if i start climbing, is the Rank 1 grind even something that is possible?

[@andrewscott2664]

Took me about a month to go from unranked to plat, but I enjoy the game. If you don’t then the grind won’t be worth it

[@FatalREM]

@@andrewscott2664 I mean, I love the game. I'm talking about above plat, as that's still really just metal ranks. The playerbase seems small. And I'm concerned that once hitting platinum and above, finding matches is either going to take forever, or they're going to be poor quality, mixed rank games with little thought or skill expression.

[@evancannata3781]

I really don’t understand some of your placement. Wraith being broken is laughable, and Morigesh having a weak lane and having to get to late game is also so inaccurate. She has the weakest late game of any mid, and wraith takes 4 items to exist if he doesn’t get a crazy lead, and just gets perma pushed. Just some bias I see in most of your reviews. Like the content though, Just question where some of these takes come from

[@Empti_]

Wraith is most definitely broken right now. I think you might not think so because you might not be playing against good Wraith players. Morigesh is just easy to play, so it's hard to do bad on, but generally speaking good mid-laners will out-pressure you and out-range you, and you will only be a human at 3 items + unless opposition is trolling/not playing right. The 'takes' come from Paragon-Diamond ranked queue games on EU & talking to competitive players who play in tournaments, if that helps.

[@evancannata3781]

@@Empti_ I don’t think a character is busted because very high ranked players can do well with him. Most people are not high diamond competitive. Most wraith players I see get bodied, which I can’t say for many other mid laners who consistently do well easily. Hopefully Omeda looks at their own data for balance, because I just worry content creators using very niche data to make tier lists will cause Omeda to nerf the wrong heroes. Like imagine if they decided to buff Morigesh laning based on this video? Or nerf Wraiths poke? She would just roll over anyone, and be would never be picked again

[@Empti_]

@@evancannata3781 I mean I can tell you they balance from top-down, but also take in consideration pick-rate & up-coming skins on heroes.
