Tier movement summary

Two abilities widely seen as S-tier dropped a full tier after the mid-May patch. Two utility abilities previously rated B moved up to A.

  • S-tier deflection ability adjusted by 12 percent cast time.
  • Two utility abilities now compete with previous meta picks.
  • Cosmetic-only items unaffected by the change.

How to adjust your loadout

Players queuing ranked should swap from the nerfed S-tier ability into one of the newly buffed A-tier abilities for the next two weeks while the meta settles.

  • Pair a buffed utility with a survival deflection ability.
  • Use code rewards on cosmetics, not gameplay-affecting items.
  • Re-check the tier list page after the next two weekly resets.
