A meta frozen in time
The app recreates version 1.4.22, so its meta is the M1 era meta: old kits, old numbers, old item builds. Heroes that are balanced today were monsters then, and some modern staples did not exist yet. Since every hero is unlocked, you can play the 2019 meta exactly as it was. Here is how the power rankings shook out.
S tier: the era definers
Esmeralda was the queen of 2019, a tank mage whose shields made her nearly unkillable in the right hands. X.Borg arrived in August and instantly warped the game with his true damage and armor mechanic. Harith was the burst mage everyone feared, and Granger was the marksman who could delete a backline before fights started. These four were first pick or first ban material.
A tier: elite and reliable
Ling, the late 2019 assassin, owned the walls and the highlight reels. Wanwan punished teams that could not break her weakness points. Khufra and Grock locked down the frontline, Kaja picked off anyone out of position, and Lunox melted tanks with her light and dark combo. Guinevere, Leomord, and Thamuz rounded out a deep fighter pool.
B tier: strong in the right hands
Chou, Hayabusa, Gusion, and Fanny were the skill cap assassins: terrifying with mastery, mediocre without it. Claude, Kimmy, and Bruno were solid marksman options behind Granger. Akai, Minotaur, and Lolita gave tanks more answers, while Kagura, Eudora, and Aurora kept mages deep.
How to use this list
Start with one S or A tier hero and learn it properly instead of bouncing around. Because this app unlocks everything, your only cost is practice time. Pair your pick with the ranked climb strategy to test it in real games, and check the full hero guide for the complete roster context.
The meta you remember
Half the fun of the app is that the old power rankings still apply. If you played in 2019, pick your old main and it will feel like coming home. If you are new, start with the S tier and learn why an entire era revolved around them. Download the game from the app download page and try the list yourself. The homepage also breaks down what makes this 2019 build special.
