How this Generation ranking works

This page ranks Generation 5 heroes using the current raw Conquest dataset, precise gameplay-observed tags, base stats, position versatility, stage ceiling, and generation context. Arena order is a preliminary projection because direct Arena data remains limited.

No raw win-rate leaderboard

Heroes enter the dataset at different stages and are tested at different frequency. The ranking uses a composite rather than rewarding simple usage volume.

Accessible alternatives

This generation contains only Mythic heroes in the current dataset. Continue using developed earlier-generation Epic heroes when a new Mythic hero is not ready.

How to use the ranking

  • Start with the mode-specific order, not one universal tier.
  • Check the individual hero guide for position and counter conditions.
  • Do not replace a developed older hero with an undeveloped new hero automatically.
  • Use the ranking to choose tests and investments, then verify the exact matchup.

Conquest conclusions use the current raw Conquest Lab dataset. Arena conclusions are preliminary projections unless a section explicitly says otherwise. Exact private rows, lineups, powers, and ratios are not published.
