I main bruisers in almost every MOBA I play, including Predecessor, and just so it happens that they are kind of OP right now. If you’re wondering what else is meta in the current patch, check out our Predecessor tier list just below.
All Predecessor Heroes Tier List
Before we dive in, know that this is a general tier list, and considering how new the game is, easier champs seem to perform better. Still, if you’re a one-trick, you can make even the lowest-tier characters work. So, with that in mind, here is the definitive Predecessor heroes tier list for this patch:
| Ranking | Hero Names |
|---|---|
| S | Argus, TwinBlast, Gideon, Greystone, Kwang, Wraith |
| A | Muriel, Khaimera, Rampage, Narbash, Zarus, Countess, Steel, Riktor |
| B | Iggy & Scorch, Dekker, Murdock, Drongo, Revenant, Grux, Kallari, Howitzer |
| C | Feng Mao, Crunch, Phase, Lt. Bellica, Serath, Kira, Sevarog |
| D | The Fey, Shinbi, Morigesh, Sparrow, Gadget |
Which Role Should You Main in the Predecessor?
Before you can pick a hero to main from the tier list above, you’ll first need to choose which role you wanna play in Predecessor. If you exclude the 3rd person perspective, you’ll find this game very similar to Dota 2 and LoL. Still, that extra layer of gameplay significantly affects the difficulty of each hero, and the same is true for roles. So, if you’re unsure of which one you should main, here is a quick rundown of them all.
Offlane
This is top in LoL terms. You’ll be on an island where you’ll fight the enemy offlaner and potentially jungler/support/midlaner, depending on their map movements. Heroes for this role are mostly tanks and bruisers, so you’ll be expected to be your team’s frontline/peel.
Jungle
As a jungle you’ll spend the biggest part of the game clearing camps. However, your help is crucial if you want your teammates to win their lanes, so ganking is also a must. This role requires the most game knowledge, and most of the top champs on the tier list are hard to play, so if you’re just starting out Predecessor, it might not be the best fit.
Midlane
Midlaners have similar responsibilities as junglers, which are ganking, rotating, etc. However, they also have to care about winning their own lane. This is the role that probably gets the most action in the game and has the largest hero pool. Plus, this kind of intensity is very good if you want to learn the game quickly.
Carry
You’ll notice that most of the best heroes on the tier list are carries, and that’s because it’s the lowest skill floor role in Predecessor. Your main focus is farming and getting as much gold as you can in the early game to scale. In team fights, you’ll be your team’s main damage dealer, and staying out of enemies’ range is crucial if you want to keep up the DPS.
Support
Support also has a low skill floor but a very high ceiling. It’s one of the roles that, together with jungle, will be gapped the most, and that’s mostly due to the player’s macro. If you want to play this role effectively, you have to support everyone on your team, not just the carry.
That does it for our Predecessor tier list. If you’re wondering what the best characters are in some other video games, do check out the rest of the articles we have on Twinfinite. We’ve even got tier lists for mobile gachas like Solo Leveling Arise and Monster Never Cry.
