Base game card tierlist

I've played enough games for my understanding of cards to be established, so I decided to make a tier-list of all the cards in the base game. Tiers are sorted by pick priority and situationality

I'm not claiming that this is a completely objective list, but it works for me and I can usually use the weaknesses of weak cards (C F and some of B tier) against my opponent.

The draft is not my strongest side, it will be interesting to hear the opinions of other experienced players.

I’ve never tried the expansions, but I can say that the base game offers enough variety for a hundred or two plays, especially if you rebalance the cards a bit.

I can say with expansions, the whole thing would be totally different. Which means there are less patterns that you can follow, I do believe it is much more fun. I guess if u have any chances to play expansions, u may not wanna play base game anymore

I’m also a fan of the extensions (still sad about them being gone). The base game is too likited for me. The tier list is a fun exercise though.

Perhaps I was misled by the arena settings (they indicate that the current season has expansions), but have they completely disappeared? I always thought that only some expansions were removed, and some still remained, so the "play with expansions" option did not disappear.

They removed all expansions as well as the option. It wrecked the arena season. Then "all expansions" came back as an option. I believe there are some expansions (maybe 1?) In "all expansions" now i think that there used to be 5 expansions in "all expansions" though. I cant seem to get any opinion from anyone else. This forum is not very active.

Actually you got an answer (2 weeks ago) in the thread you created to ask specifically this question. The answer is just one click away:
