How this tier list works

Our crawler polls battle logs around the clock and stores every Path of Legends battle for both players. This list sums each card's wins and battles over the last three complete weeks, then places it relative to the sample-weighted average win rate of the cards shown here: 2 points above the average is S, 2 below is D. Cards without a large enough sample this window are listed separately instead of being tiered on noise.

Tiers move when the game does. A balance change shows up here within days, without anyone editing a list by hand, and the same data powers every deck page on the site, so a card's number here matches its number everywhere else.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a card a hero?

A hero is a premium variant of an existing card with an added ability, the tier above evolutions. In battle data a hero is identified by its variant level, and this list counts only those variants.

Why are hero sample sizes smaller?

Heroes are the newest and most expensive variant tier, so fewer players field them. Any hero below the sample floor for the window is listed under the table instead of being tiered on thin data.
