Tier list

Tier list

Three lists, one method: decks first, then Legendaries, then base cards. Built on tournament results and top-ladder lists, never on vibes.

Status · Updated September 15, 2026

First ranked lists after Steam Next Fest (19–26 October 2026), from the tournament and the community decklists. Until then every entry sits in “not ranked yet” and the patch tracker below shows what the balance changes did.

How we rank

  1. Tournament results and top-ladder decklists first, then patch reads.
  2. Cards are ranked inside their role: Legendary, unit, spell.
  3. Every move between tiers is dated and explained.
