Because they’re both irreplaceable in their roles of support and decap/roamer

This is the most accurate list.

Here's the real tier list:

 

F-tier: What I play

 

S-tier: Everything else

This list gets it right.

 

P.s. To the people who insist on off-meta builds, this does not apply beyond the current best bios being used in most cases.

1 of them is a person who calls himself trollingdemigod. I hope I get banned so I can close this chapter once and forall

[jsp.6912]

Guard S tier and thief B tier

 

it's a tier list for bronze player ?

[Shiyo.3578]

I really hope these posts haven't influenced my matches. I keep getting tempests that literally don't heal a single person the entire game, never give auras to anyone, do zero damage, never CC anyone, and instantly die the second they lose respawn invul.

 

Please remove ele from the S tier in all your lists.

this is for top players, at/plat 2+ where people at the very least know what their class is supposed to do. Tempest takes some thought process to make the most value off, its much easier to play dps build and spam damage then to have to know when to heal, who to heal, who to CC, when to CC, even something silly as throwing magnetic aura or proj block field properly take more effort then most dps builds do.

Yes, but some silvers/low golds are going to come in here, see tempest is S tier, go try it out, and randomly get put in my games despite being -200 to -400 rating to me(matchmaking issues) and contribute a total of zero when they could be playing something like reaper/thief/holo and contribute something since those classes require absolutely zero effort for massive reward.

It's not about rating. They're the same rating as you but it feels like they're lower rated simply because, as the other guy stated, support Tempest is one of the hardest-to-play meta builds. It does seem like I drop 100 rating when I try to play it. I have to play twice as hard as any other build just to feel like I'm actually helping the team.

Not at all, this isn't HoT anymore where everyone has 50% passive DR/invul procs, infinite sustain, yet can still kill thieves in 2 hits. Thief actually does insane damage/pressure and is why it's so overpowered.

 

 

[PeerlessArch.6547]

Every game come away with top offense;-- average k/d ratio 10-1. Most are more like 6,7,8,9 -- 0. Yep. Thief is dead for sure.

 

What a B Tier class...
