(Map-specific) Champion Tier Lists
By Ando
Quick Rankings of each champion's potential on each map. These Champion Tier lists are based on ÆMasters league (some champions may be more effective at lower leagues). Updated till Taeyang Era.

Some champion's map effectiveness based on how popular ships and champions are used on the map, because they are great counters/countered by them. For more information, view Champ Matchups at the bottom of that guide.

Dome Argus


Tier
Champions
Great
Butcher, Baron, Bug, Crank ~ Corporal, Aurora ~ Skyblade, Taeyang
Good
Sharina, Harle ~ Luna, Mary
C-tier
HAMMER, Martel

Changes:
-Bug moved down on A-tier because of Sparrow's higher popularity
-Butcher moved higher on A-tier
-Aurora moved lower on A-tier, decreased health has taken away her superior duelling power
-Corporal promoted to A-tier, great defender against caether tile champ, threatens knockoff on turn 2
-Skyblade is A-tier, as good as Aurora's range and movement, threatens move+attack ship on first turn
-Taeyang is A-tier, considering sparrow's popularity, Taeyang will be a backdoor monster. Foresee him moving even higher
-HAMMER is C-tier, as slow as Martel and no health tiles to support him, not a good candidate for caether tile champion either

I don't think bug is SO great... and mary is understimate in almost every maps. All other ranking r good! (i think also baron is more great than this list :-P )

Looks like it :) I would say he's least great on dearborne though.

So Bug is "Great" on all of them?

Updated for Sharina era! Baron still terrible on Dearborn, but promoted to B-tier on South Pole.
Nostil 1 Jul, 2014 @ 12:17pm 
you should add baron to b teir on dear born hieghts because he can hit arc without being on the edge (and shovable)
