The Best & Worst Agents to CLIMB RANKED for Episode 8 

I run omen on breeze bc he has good one ways and still win w him in diamond as solo smokes, harbor is not good anywhere.

@@elijahsiegal5739 I agree. Harbor is not that good in regular comp. Harbor is better with a coordinated team and even better in pro play because people in regular comps tend to just run through the smokes without an issue unlike pro teams who respect it and use util to clear it instead.

Skyes definitely c/d tier now almost dead in my opinion

I feel like if Skye is a tier then gekko should be too I think Skye and gekko are very similar and now with the changes gekko is better

@@ghostcod26 skye has far more guaranteed value than gekko. Id rather have 2 skye flashes than 3 gekko dizzies, a skye dog rather than two wingmen, and a better cypher ult than a fish which can be shot.

same😂

Im keeping it high 😔

Relatable bro, 40% win rate with Neon. However I do have good K/D with her.

New player that just started playing. Would you recommend Neon for a new player? Her movement looks super fun and I play a LOT of Zeri in League (Zeri and Neon are very similar in both model, design, and playstyle), so I figured I should try out Neon.

@@lethalfurret9082 I think if you know how to move fast, neon is a great pick! I wish you luck in your games

thats what clickbaits are

play with their mind

As a deadlock main I was furious

I come here to say this too, there plenty of way to do clickbait without lying but he choose the worst way to do it.

frfr

buff harbor!!

Why is it bad, if ur winning with em that means ur better than the rest

eh. it’s based on averages. sage is most people’s first pick when they begin playing, so she’s gonna have low kda average. if you like em, u like em

All mine are in b and a

Frrrr

It doesn't really matter Mr dittoz mentioned every time the word 'statistic' which means it's kind of just an average and trust me it gets affect cause everyone switches and plays a diff agent which affects these data...so just pick an agent depending upon the map and the condition...I'm an omen main but sometime I play cypher like in breeze omen isn't useful but cypher is very good there

You are right. I'm a breach main but at times when I'm agent hoping I'm kinda bad on those agents Just pick what you like and play them enough times to be really comfortable with them you know

maining one agent isn't really good, what if someone steals that agent and you don't know how to play anyone else?

@@GhostIsBadinstalock

@@wodkdnwiwondsn and if someone is faster?

i used to be a killjoy main i i will say now that i main cypher i get soooo much more value and fun.the only edge (but a big one) is the postplant that kj has. other than that though, (and chip damage), having you and Ur teammates able to collect free kills through smokes and stopping lurks is very strong.

Im a hardcore cypher main since SECOND WEEK BETA (I no joke have over 1k hours on competetive play on cypher specifically) I will stand for cypher supremacy on ascent over kj but on maps like icebox I unfortunately swallow my pride since immortal people don't fall for cypher gimmicks usually and no unbreakable traps or one ways there hinders him😞

disliked so people CAN'T see

@@remuz3561 imma touch you

He isn't talking about pro play though, he said quite a few times.

@@11ui55 I wasn't referring to him, I was just speaking about a lot of tier lists in general. When I mentioned the part about a pro team, whoc each player gave an individual tier list; there tier lists resembled our reality (non top ranked players) more than immortal to pro player so called tier lists that you typically see. Like some of them had Reyna higher than D tier, and some of them had Phoenix in B tier. One guy even put Brimstone in A tier, and two had Gekko in A tier. I kid you not, I never thought pro players would vary so much in their interpretations. One player even put Killjoy in B tier. More than half their tier lists had Yoru ranging from B tier to S tier. They mad their tier lists based off of personal experience, not statistics, which statistics without proper context is very deceiving. This guy's tier list isn't like the ones you necessarily see on Skill capped or TMV, which base most of their tier lists on pro play, but because he uses a lot of those stats, his tier list is actually closer to TKV and skill capped than it is what some of the pro players think, and TMV and skill capped think their tier lists accurately reflect pro play, but apparently pro players think very different. So yeah, I wasn't trying to say this video is guilty of the same things, but just to tell yall that tier lists can be very subjective, and not to let community tier lists form too much of your idea on who is strong and not. I'll see if I can link the video of the pro team's tier list below.

i aint reading allat

@@kylew8492 I tried, but it was just way to much.

As a low rank Breach player (silver), Breach is literally op in these ranks, considering how low rank players dont know what his kit does, similar to what u said.. but that is also the main issue.. 6 times out of 10 when I pop my ult my team does not swing, or when i simply use my stun my duelist does not take advantage of it bc they are absolutely clueless. Its rlly a give or take situation in low elo but I usually see breach picks at the top of the leaderboard regardless. He's a hidden gem

don’t say that, they’re gonna nerf him again!

Fr ! Breach is basically a duel below dia coz people can't dodge his flash

The amount of stuff wrong in this Video is hurting me, dw breach is fine Much love: immortal player

Brother breach is one of the strongest agents in game, the video creator just has brain damage 😭

Tier lists don’t really matter. Imo there's only 3 tiers: Great, Good and Bad. Most Agents are Good, and high Skill Ceiling agents are generally great(except Yoru). So at the end of the day play whoever tf you want!

@@lead5916agreed 😅

And if you know how to count it tells you how many people too

@@snwmn4783 Imo Gekko Is one of the best initiators for info if used correctly,the only others better than him for info are probably sova and fade, I'd say that Skye gives the same amount of info as Gekko it's just that no one currently knows how to use gekko in pro level,only a few people actually play him well

KJ has the same the problem. That's a sentinel issue in general or any site anchor really. Youre last to rotate. A 2v1 is regularly doable since it's easy to isolate fights but a 3v1 is usually bad or even a 3v2 if you aren't with your teammate and they die while you're still rotating.

cypher is borderline broken, i dont think its fair that he has the ability to have unbreakable trips that only 2 agents in the roster have the ability to break is balanced or fair

Rat

I do agree that phoenix should be much higher but I feel you underestimate Astra. Firstly you can just place a stun or suck wherever and get free assists when you see your teammates killing people on the map. Second I find that she makes you play a lot more passive and less aggressive which forces you to stop taking fights you don’t need to be taking. I’ve found I entry a lot less as Astra whenever I play her than other agents that aren’t duelists

the thing with astra is that she really needs team play to be effective, which in low ranks just isnt gonna happen.@@_Iceey

Phoenix is only good if the enemy team is bad. That’s sounds really stupid but phoenix just doesn’t work against good players unlike other duelists

@@toxicvold3164 well phoenix sucks if we are talking about a pro comp, but we arent talking pro comps, phoenix sucks if he is the only duellist but works fine as a 2nd duellist and in a completely balanced game he isnt worth it. but if your team dosnt make the right decisions every time phoenix have the ability to play for him self, unlike other duelist.

@@toxicvold3164he has good flashes for close range, a wall, an alright ult and a molly

Phoenix isn't bad. He's actually who I usually go for if I get stuck as a duelist (which is rare because I'm usually instalocking omen or Cypher/kj). I think his wall is a good substitute for viper on breeze and also let's your viper on icebox keep a permawall on B if you want to hit A. I rarely play duelists though he's rhe onky one I'm comfortable with

miniboo would disagree hard

ISO is good but why play iso when u could play raze or jett

@@DrPigs Not my cup of tea,

@@user-kz1ir4dl6mreyna does his job much better, having a ult that you can die in does not make sense, just literally no value because of the single fact that reyna exists

bro im sorry you do not have a brain if your in diamond LMFAO, your opinion is like asking a jv basketball player compared to lebron

as someone who’s played in immortal, its not very different. you want to take fights and keep fighting on reyna. you’ll get more útil in those ranks to help or hinder you though

Hard stuck iron and get to sil 2 by just switching Only Omen to Only Reyna and Practicing Gun fight mechanic. I would say that IF My gunfight mechanic is better than the enemy. I can solo carry the game. This is only one condition to win in very low rank lobby 😂 and Reyna really fit this.

Bruh....i just find lurking reyna in my plat lobbies. She just steals the kills from behind. As a cypher main.......my kit is highly designed for lurks and info...........these dumfk reynas just pops up in every lobby to lurk all the time. Mostly becuz if she is unable to take entry and make space, she goes to the other site for rotating kills ......... but cyphers cannot take entry. Its hard for them,, they lack movement and flashes

Pro play and ranked is not at all the same. Pros pick based on what works well together. Your commebt is stupid af

Why

Why

He isnt S bc he doesn't flash

Sad to C Gekko in the C tier (appreciate the pun pls, I only just came up with it)

Ye idk why he put her so low, having good aim on Reyna can get you at least to ascendant without having to think too much. Shes def an A tier and even S tier if you have insane aim. But I understand why he said it

@@historic6752 fr i used her from bronze to ascendant and it was soo easy cuz I have always had good aim so imo she is AT LEAST high A if not S

I have like a 20% win rate on kayo this act lol, I do NOT know what I'm doing

Nah, every one on my team in my bronze lobby is. I've never won with him and I think I only lost 1 or 2 against him. Usually he just flashes his team lmao

For the same reason, I would lower Killjoy to a C or even D tier. Her abilities are very good for protecting the site, but post planting or attack or retake is very dependent on the team. The same Cypher, on the contrary, can act alone in all these situations.

These agents are really very strong, but they open themselves only with a good team, which is unacceptable for a solo rank up, where randomness decides your good teammates or irons with the rank of diamonds.

ive been scrolling through all the comments for someone to stand up for astra as an agent 😭, i don’t main her but i play her regardless how many people i’m queued with. i think i have a decent 90% post plant 1v1 win rate with astra

Fk no he already gets 2 life's every 3 rounds

@@CubeInspectorwell he is still one of the worst characters in the game lmao

Yeah all of his abilities help, except a few I’d the gekkos I play with molly is off and then detain us with his ult haha
