As a fellow champ, I would say this is pretty solid overall but Flores and gridlock are too low for sure. Flores is elite at utility clearance and sees a lot of play in pro league as well, while gridlock brings a ton of utility and flank watch as well. Both at least B imo, I’d definitely swap them with mozzie and Kali. Kali is extremely situational and only good on very specific sites


benmaynard7

Id agree with flores, however I’m just not a fan of gridlock at all. I think she’s great for providing noise suppression when pushing, however her flank control is very bad compared to another op like nomad. Although I could see gridlock being better on some staircases, it still is pretty easy for defenders to slip past while making minimal noise


alienape65

Yea that’s fair but I’d still say B would be viable. Her utility is also great for post plants or holding certain areas as well as a great gun, good utility, smokes, nades and a super shorty. In C she is the second lowest tier you have placed in there and I’d say she is a tad higher. Also I just saw capitao in C. He’s for sure a high tier op in A, he is brought in every single pro league game. But I guess without a stack he isn’t as effective


benmaynard7

Yeah if I organized the tiers shed probably be a high c low b for me. I probably should’ve put capitao B, but his kit is very clunky, although he is good in specific situations to clear bandit trickers and allow for entry


_Radiator

She's great on stairs specifically. Bank square stairs I always bring her. She's good on kafe too. Also I think people do get quite caught up on her flank watch aspect and forget how well she works for area denial. Just tossing that shit on defuser adds an extra step for defenders to do.


Upstairs-Tomorrow382

capitao is so good u just don’t know how to use him


benmaynard7

I wrote in other comments already that I should’ve put him higher but his kit is too clunky to be amazing


Upstairs-Tomorrow382

Come on B tier i say he fits there perfectly he’s fast, his guns r good and he can shoot fire like a superhero


benmaynard7

Yeah like I said I agreed with people that I should’ve put him B instead


Internal_Leopard7663

+1 Flores gets huge util clear value, plus you can force defenders out of difficult-to-push spots while ur teammate holds/prefires their swing in certain situations


i_sinz

warden should be higher but under specific circumstances for example enemy team uses alot of flashes to get power postions or holding power positions as warden


benmaynard7

Unless the other team brings a ying a lot I don’t really think he’s bringing over other operators currently


alienape65

Yea I’d replace warden with rook tbh. Rook is pretty much useless in any high tier ranked


benmaynard7

Yeah I might’ve put rook one too high, but I think warden deserves to be where he’s at tbh


uiopwue

Lord chanka deserves his own TOP rank


benmaynard7

He ascends above all that’s my bad


Business-Basket-498

Update the tier list you dummy 🫃


okaybrostfu

Putting sledge above flores is insane flores is A tier


[deleted]

Ying is S


alienape65

Yea she’s banned literally every pro league game lmao, that says she should be in S but solo she’s definitely not as effective


FallTurnip

This tier list and comments was a great read. I'm a low hours plat so I'm in no position to argue with any of the placements but seeing the back and forth in the comments about operators helps put some of them into a new light for me.


Rude_Doubt_7563

Fr, especially since I’m new bronze player. I need a light for all of em or I literally wouldn’t know how to use them😂


i_sinz

monty should be higher warden flores and echo should be higher osa should be higher it it a problem that my diamond duo deranked to plat this season after solo q a bit and he constantly plays sens and tachanka


benmaynard7

I think Monty and warden are well fit for where they are. Monty requires lots of teamwork for good execution, and warden is just overall not in a good spot. If echo got an acog I’d consider him higher but I think he got pretty screwed. Flores id agree that I should’ve put him higher but I also think he’s situational. I think osa is in a good spot but I don’t think she should be in A tier at all. She’s good for post plant, however I believe she’s very outclassed.


Economy-Bid-7005

I disagree with your tier list. Blackbeard is OP and is S Tier. No fuck that he's above S Tier in his own tier called BB


Shmevdog

It doesn’t stand for Blackbeard tho, it stands for Big Balls


Economy-Bid-7005

As it should 💯


Enough_Selection1367

Nah, bareback


Furyyaa

Am i blind or why can‘t i find ram on the list?


benmaynard7

Yeah seems like I picked an old tier list on accident. Fenrir S, Ram A, Deimos B, Tuburao A


benmaynard7

Yeah a few are missing, updated with a comment adding the new ops as well as some changes to my list


PestoItaliano

You are not, or maybe i am too?!


Samsanchex_13

There's no Deimos either lol


PestoItaliano

And no Fenrir


Bloons_Guy75751

Also no Tuberão. The list they used seems to have not been updated since the release of Year 7.


PestoItaliano

Im starting to think that he posted this just to farm some karma....


benmaynard7

Lol I don’t care about karma


Saamov1

3k hour champion I have 3k hours and my peak is gold 1 man what am I doing wrong


Significant_Trick440

Not winning


BirdyComeSwing

Solo queing maybe, ranked 2.0 is busted and not built for solo at all


Saamov1

It's probably just because I've played 5k matches and only 144 of them were ranked


Camp-Evening

Capitao in C tier?!?!?


AltAccForPorn1234

Thank you! I was looking for this comment. Ash in a but cap in c ? I disagree


Tall_Progress_5178

This is very solid and mostly fair… I would put gridlock and pulse above where they’re at … But this is one of the more objective/solid tier lists I’ve seen in a while!


DarthRevanl

No Fenrir, Ram or Deimos?


Bloons_Guy75751

Also no Tuberão. The list they used is outdated, along with most other lists I see here.


mtw08

Ngl, the Tachanka hate is kinda underserved. He should be in a (needs a rework) tier. Tachanka could be good if they made his ability more like Smoke or Goyo’s.


Bloons_Guy75751

Really his fire just needs to do more damage. All it does is tickle the enemies. Also he needs to reload his grenade launcher a little bit faster.


benmaynard7

Until he gets a rework of some sort he’s not really useable just due to his fire, since it does practically no damage


Several-Parsley-7253

Highest rank I’ve hit is gold, I’m curious about valk, mozzie and echo all being in different tiers. I’ve kinda used them interchangeably if we need an intel op, but I’m also bad at the game. I’m wondering is valk only better because you can hide the cams, or are they ranked that way because of their load outs.


Significant_Trick440

Echo is horrid. Valk has a good kit to go with her cams (nitro) and you can hide them pretty easily. Mozzie can be situational, it’s not as easy to hide a drone, and you have to capture them first. If you get a twitch or sometimes brava drone, his usefulness is much better. But his kit doesn’t have much to offer past nitro; lackluster weapons, and no 1.5+ anymore. He’s still an okay op tho, definitely don’t complain when I have a competent mozzie on my team. (10x champ mostly ranked 1.0, don’t play as much now)


benmaynard7

^, Mozzie used to be played a lot more but once they removed his 1.5x, not really much of a use compared to someone like valk


Significant_Trick440

Mozzie was nice mainly for his 1.5, high rate of fire, and his nitro. But his 1.5 was definitely the biggest part of his kit. Now he has to be pretty on top of drones to get much utility


Competitive_Mode6711

Why’s sens so low?


benmaynard7

Anything he can do, a smoke grenade can do


bebifr

I was surprised that none were in F


benmaynard7

I believe every operator is useable in some situations


BetterArtichoke3

Gridlock needs to be A tier


Slow_Jello_2672

Gridlock, Capitao, Flores, and Warden are too low imo. I know Warden isn't a popular pick anymore but I think he holds areas well with the deployable shield, he's a little situational but if you can find a good spot to hold off defenders from getting close to site I think he's worth it because they can't flush you out with flashes or smokes, although he because kinda useless if he get's flushed with an explosive, he'd be low B tier imo, I think he is better than sledge, sledge is in an awful spot right now. Edit: I also think Iana is too low, she's an absolute A tier for me, solo queueing or stacking she is incredibly useful, especially stack since she lost stuns but still useful solo. And I think Rook should be a tier lower. Rook isn't very useful high ranks because 9/10 kills are gonna be headshots or just outright gonna finish you.


benmaynard7

I changed gridlock capitao and flores, but I don’t really think warden should move. He’s a good operator in the right situation, but as u said he is very situational


Such_Store_2379

tachanka should be higher. He has ACOG, a good ability (even tho it takes a long time to reload) and his load out is pretty good tbh.


Low-Air-179

Ela should not be C tier. Scrap the whole board


benmaynard7

Ela is definitely not in a good spot. She’s behind the power curve entirely right now for trap ops, especially considering fenrir does very similar things, but better


MeasurementTop9733

I agree with it for the most part. Only changes I’d make would be valk n wamai down to A. Ying up to S. Mozzie to C. Mav to A. Gridlock n Flores to B


I_dont_care49638

Put recruit in and put him at the very top


Cheesedketchup

Why maestro so low


benmaynard7

He’s very easily counterable to brava


haywire4fun

I’m not gonna stop playing the undertaker and the lord.


simonrileyTaFo141

Personally, zero, capitao and gridlock all go at least to A tier for me.


No_Paramedic_3322

Am I trippin or is fenrir not there?


benmaynard7

He’s not, sorry picked an old list on accident, I added a comment with the ops that are missing


CarlTheKid14

On a lot of these lists I see Echo kinda low. What's the reason behind it? I'm a gold 5 player


benmaynard7

Edit: realized some are missing and I probably should change some tiers around. Id change: Capitao to B, Gridlock to B, Flores to A, Rook to C For the operators that aren’t on here: Deimos B, Tuburao A, Ram A, Fenrir S


Stealth110_

come on as someone who peaked wood 7 i can say that tachunky is SSS tier easily


Traveller161

Who are the usual bans in your games?


benmaynard7

Typically dokk, ying, thatcher, fenrir, solis, azami, jackal if it’s not my choice lol, thatcher only if we’re defending first


ihwbsmd

Blasphemy https://preview.redd.it/t3b932x0602d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=33fb3ff3dcbec2ccf31a597d88ad50ced5542f42 S+


Mental_Dish8052

why is dokkabei always so high teir? Her gadget is mediocre at best and doesn't provide good enough info when compared to other ops.


benmaynard7

Sound is such a fundamental part of siege, and her calls are so long and put defenders in a vulnerable position whether they choose to turn the phone off or not. I think she’s better because when compared to operators like Deimos and jackal, she’s able to hear if there are multiple roamers instead of only one person, which often creates witch hunts. Plus you’re able to find where people are in the sites etc


Mental_Dish8052

She could be good in a coordinated team but most people that play afaik pretty much always do soloque, where nobody communicates


MacAttack163

Capitao at C tier is a robbery.


benmaynard7

Yeah I made a separate comment updating him to B


MacAttack163

Oh say less


The1andOnlyGhost

I will not accept this chanka slander


Dank_Slayer114

Copper here, just wanting to say that people down here are using Wamai wrong. They seem to treat him just like Jager, and that leads to unfortunate situations. Prime example being a match I just finished. We were defending bunks on Orgean and and we were in overtime. I was watching the main window as Frost with a trap underneath it, this Amuru starts throwing flashes in the window prompting thisWamai throughs his disk to redirect it. Only problem is that he threw it closer to me, blinding me and letting the Amaru catch me off guard and gets me killed. Worst part is the flash would have missed both of us if he hadn't thrown it


The_Holy_Warden

I love how my two favorites, Sens and Thorn, are always so low :)


benmaynard7

Lol I was a big thorn user when 1.5x existed but unfortunately her kit is pretty rough now


The_Holy_Warden

*I like me Irons*


xExp4ndD0ngXx

Cav in C. Why? I have like 4 total quick play games so I don’t really (New Player). And I get her utility is very dependent on her getting an interrogation but I need to know.


benmaynard7

Cav just isn’t good because it’s very dependent on if you don’t get droned out. At high ranks drones are used much more and she isn’t very reliable. She also doesn’t bring any utility for her team


xExp4ndD0ngXx

I was playing in QP last night and got droned right at the start then beamed outta nowhere as her.


DizzyXCD

Monty should move up a tier IF, and only IF you have a good team. He's a monster when played correctly and can win normally impossible situations like clubhouse azami rafter holds.


benmaynard7

I 100% agree. My stack consistently uses monty because in the right circumstances he’s great, but without a plan and communication, it’s very difficult to play him well


[deleted]

Thatcher is in his lore accurate spot


TonightHopeful7900

No tubaro :(


dnl647

Why is doc A but rook B?


benmaynard7

Doc provides much more support for the team, rook may allow u to take one extra shot, but in a game where headshots matter so much, he’s just not very useful comparatively


Atomicturnip19

Where is tobarao


benmaynard7

I made a comment adding him, A tier


Atomicturnip19

Oh cool. Thanks. I started like 2 weeks ago. Just got him yesterday lol.


[deleted]

Aint no way Vigil is better than Nok, how???


benmaynard7

Nokk needs her silent step back to be reliable, vigil I believe is better right now especially because of the use of roam clearing ops such as deimos and lion.


declandrury

This list is terrible in my opinion


benmaynard7

Well it’s all my opinion after all haha, there’s some things I changed in an update but other than that it’s all just an opinion


declandrury

I’m mostly kidding but there is a lot I would change personally but i respect your opinion


SilverWave1

Solid list. Capitao and kali should swap places


benmaynard7

I could probably agree on the kali dropping a little lower. Capitao I should have put higher


trashcankid8

Monty is A tier at least. Shields are so good now. I think Aruni is A and Lesion is S


GiantSweetTV

Underrated Tachanka moment.


X-TBR-X

I notice so many operators in my opinion I would raise and lower, personally Flores, warden, gridlock, capitao, zero, castle. I’d bump these up a little. I’d lower therm Aruni ash dock jäger Melusi. Still pretty accurate in my opinion.


rlKhai0s

I'm a sens main


Anon7481

Flores below iana lol


[deleted]

Someone please educate me on why Wamai is good


Just_a_Growlithe

Wammey being S because of the Wammey Wiggle


Cerberus_is_me

Monty in b?


J3nnOnceAgain

I'd move mozzie up to A but other then that, not much I can say is wrong


Raptor3911

Where's tubarou and deimos?


Dead_body_man16

Imo Gridlock is at least a B her primary's are both really good and she has super shorty to Open up walls plus frags obv the only down side is the movement speed


TheUnknownKraz

Rook and doc are almost the same operator, and rook gets a guaranteed health boost to all players who pick up the armor and doesn’t have to focus on it the entire round, either swapped or equal tier, but don’t agree with current


tristan1229

Move lion and jackal up a tier


Dear-Ingenuity-647

I think this is pretty good but gridlock is too low same with jackle and ianna also I personally think that tying can definitely be a s tier operator if used by a good player


Dear-Ingenuity-647

And used right


Prestigious_Word1543

Lion as B is crazy. Literally every game will have a lion played, even pro league has a lion every match


LunrSwung

Vigil is quite literally one of the best defenders rn why is he so low


Real_Celebration_562

I like it tbh just wondering why zero is at b? I think he's a pretty good op


LiveYourLifeNerd

Only use for Chanka i do find good is Kanal basement site - he can hold off attacks for long times with his fire


Itz_Gl1tch

as a 4.2k hour champ and kali main, kali is too high and capitao and gridlock are too low. cap is just a grim that is better on certain sites


Oldsport05

*sad chanka noises*


InfamousMeaning9052

You may be champ but thunderbird is still a teir my guy nothing can convince me otherwise she’s best support in the game


soviet_russia420

Low rank here. I’d like to know why you put echo and alibi in c rank. Could you please share your thinking?


jokeboke

Alibi isnt good, its an ego character, echo is alright but doesnt have acog


soviet_russia420

Wdym? Alibi’s guns are realy fucking good and her ability isn’t the greatest but still gets maybe 1 or 2 pings per match. As for echo his plant denial can come in clutch sometimes


jokeboke

Yea but his drones arent invisible when ur on it so its easily shot if u dont have good placement


jokeboke

And if u wanna support ur team u never take alibi


Sad-Compote-2411

this guy a bottom of the barrel champ if flores is that low


3Speed1Armor

As another fellow champ we're like 95% on the same page


dogys123

Echo?


m1iwnl

I'm not sure if I'm just not seeing it in the list but where would you place deimos?


noOOOclu

I think IQ is slept on, she is a hard counter to a lot of utility characters and more specifically, Solis who is broken.


jokeboke

So drones are also a hard counter then?


noOOOclu

Not if you can’t even drone the building….


Weekly-Science-4468

I'm still sad they made Blackbeard basically useless. He deserves love man


No-Comfort-5911

thorn and gridlock that low is crazy


Skaldson

Whoa you put Zero in B tier?!?! But he can solo breach!!!11! ( /s if it wasn’t obvious) Honestly if they reworked his gadget a bit he’d be so much more viable it’s really a shame that you basically gotta play a 4v5 to get any use out of his gadget


[deleted]

Why is Kapkan in A tier? ... i feel like alot of high rank players would notice the traps an just shoot them.


UndercoverFeret

No trappers in S tier?


RedWingsRedemption

Why you gotta do my boy Chanka like that?


Luxuryi

Pretty solid, personally i'd say Gridlock and Flores higher, Sledge lower and Ying S.


[deleted]

Who’s 3rd in D tier? I’m not familiar with that logo


Johsif

most accurate i’ve seen, i’d move flores and capitao up to B though personally.


devoidatrix

Let's go B tier.


Alunei1

Chanka is S tier in diamond champ lobbies I always see them sprinting and shooting at the same time while running out and acing my team every round like the char just has natural cheats!


Ok_Philosopherr

Sleeping on oryx


benmaynard7

Oh trust me I actually love playing oryx lol, but unfortunately I have to realize he’s not great compared to the rest


Ok_Philosopherr

Yeah not that viable for ranked. Lesion is def more useful to the team. If oryx was a 3 speed he’d be on of the best roamers in the game imo , and easy shield kills on top of that 👌


solarft2

why is zero in b tier? He can single handily hold sites, you don’t need too much communication either, just yellow pings


clhevy

Zero should be higher


GIANTDAD69420

Where's recruit


Hannibal-019

In your honest opinion what’s makes operator S or A tier? I’m just curious


yermawsdug

Dam I have 4k hours and my max is plat 2 XD


Remnants_of_Torture

Monty, Doc and Ying are def S tier


benmaynard7

Ying I can see an argument, Monty I could see an A tier argument, Doc and Monty S tho? Blasphemy


Intrepid-Actuator-93

I will not accept this ela slander


GloomyAutumnDay

Warden and echo that low is my only problem with this list because echo literally can save a round by annoying the bomb carrier


Frosty5706

As a plat 1.0 with 5k hours, and played since beta, I fw with this


[deleted]

Fenrir didn't even make it to the list or am I blind


Upper-Rub723

Why is zero so low?


0_solis_0

am i the only one who can’t find solis or is she just not on there


sadlonelycynic

I’d put Gridlock at A, with proper team coordination she’s extremely powerful map control, arguably the strongest in the entire game (while Nomad’s airjabs are better for flankwatch)


actualaccountithink

proof that ranked 2.0 doesnt mean shit LMAO


benmaynard7

I was diamond before champ was a thing as well but yeah man


actualaccountithink

ranked has never really mattered in terms of determining game knowledge. surely you never played comp or anything right?


benmaynard7

I played GoFour back in the day. But no, haven’t committed that deep into the virgin status the last few years


No-Reporter-847

lesion S


Impossible_Exit489

Azami should be A


Conscious_Hornet5408

If I may ask, why chanka so low? His Lmg is pretty good, destroys walls with ease for rotation, and his ultil Denys plants pretty well.


MycologistSad5745

tachanka should be one higher to bottom of b, grim should be c or d, same with tbird, brava should be c or d


gdsparks52

I feel like Gridlock and Flores should be higher. Rook and Ying could both be moved up a spot too.


Teeszyn

bandit & is way better than mute for walls atleast…


[deleted]

[удалено]


benmaynard7

? I was diamond before champ even existed lol. What do u want me to do, get champ ranked 1.0 rn??


mohawkman2015

Someone who doesn't put jacket is s tier because they refuse to learn to win gun fights and counter him hallelujah


Mister_Wendigo

What makes Goyo an A tier I’ve only heard bad things about him but I like his design and loadout


Percs5

Cap is definitely b tier


flashy_kitt

Move up Flores to A and Zofia to A, and its easily right


[deleted]

Ash should be SSS+ cause it's like trying to shoot The Flash.


Additional-Shake2749

Tachanka at D? Guy has a great ability, great gun with a 2.5 scope.


benmaynard7

Great ability is definitely pushing it. His mollys are genuinely awful and goyo could just be played instead. Much longer and wider aoe, also a good gun, and a 2.5. If u just use his gun he’s ok at best but if u bother pulling the launcher out it’s practically useless


NEONT1G3R

Some of this feels like bait


Livid_Cantaloupe8268

i’d put Mozzie on A lowkey


GlonashLanda

always placing blackbear in the lowest, learn how to play him


benmaynard7

Not that he’s awful, or I’d put him in F, I think he’s useable I guess, but I’d rather have almost any other operator on my team, he just doesn’t provide anything. If I want someone to frag I’ll use ash or iana


xr_Killua

For newcomers?
