We have every intention to delve deeper into said factors in later articles, and below you’ll also find a link to the spreadsheet with all the detailed ratings & calculations (including cases where different sources rate a champion differently). In short, we wanted to avoid making these lists too cumbersome and intimidating. Veterans and experts do take several factors into account (mainly strength of the cards that the Champs come with, and their Region & Archetype) and not only the Champion itself, but for these lists we went for a simpler, more streamlined approach. Our main focus will be making sure we don’t pick the clearly worst choice, while (trying! =) not to fret too much when the power-level is similar.Ī note for Seasoned Expeditioneers : as explained in the “Mindsplitter Challenge” section later below, the main focus of these lists is to ease rookies and new players into the sometimes muddy waters of an Expeditions’ draft. With that in mind, we distributed Champs in three broad tiers (Top, Playables, and Trash), with the most important for our what-to-pick heuristics being Top ( pick these! ) and Trash ( avoid these! ). That starts to deteriorate when the pick impacts more decisions down the line, but certainly card-by-card it holds true, so don’t worry too much about whether you’re right on close picks.” But when we agonise over close decisions–those 53% vs 54% picks–they actually matter least. When the power differential is large enough to be obvious, picking the wrong/weaker card is the most impactful. “A comforting note I heard the other day,” says one of our experts, arthurmauk, “from Ryan Spain in the Limited Resources Podcast is that the closer the pick, the less it matters. In other words: Rather than stressing out about always picking the best choice, focus on making sure you don’t pick the worst choice.
Expert drafters agree on one point: The first rule of Draft Club is you do not take the bad card. When drafting, the player is always confronted with three choices. In following articles, we’ll tackle subtler layers of complexity (of which Expeditions have legion) - this Tier List is the most compact way we found to pack as many insights as possible while not losing too much nuance in the process, but there’s certainly several more factors at play that we will explore in the future. We’ll also shed some light on how we arrived at this list from the sources we consulted, and provide links to said sources when appropriate for those that would like to dig deeper for a more nuanced approach. This article will provide a Tier List aimed at helping you decide which Champions to pick when you start drafting an Expeditions’ deck.
