Tier list made by coach Fauwkz for pro play for s8 , there are 2 rogues because tier 2 is with team-up and tier 6 is without team-up .

Now for the tier explanation :

Tier 1 : These are the top 2 chars in each role , if these chars are unbaned they should probably play them

Tier 2 : Beside rogue with team-up everyone else is an alternative for tier 1

Tier 3 : These characters are meta relevant not your first and second choices , but you can create very strong comps with them especially Mantis

Tier 4 : These characters are viable at pro play you might see them , but they will probably not be picked due to player's comfort , you need an adept player for them .

Tier 5 : These characters you should not be seen in pro play

Tier 6 : These are bad but not horrible

Tier 7 : Those are just horrible

I reached it again like in 6.5 , this time in less hours with almost 6 hours .

I must say it felt a little harder to do it now because of the new characters that adds to Magik's powercreep those being White Fox and Black Cat , first one being a soft-counter and the second being a superior version of Magik.

White Fox: they buffed her post-release like she was not a balancer character already(the only buff needed was the resource tails after spawn/ult everything else is powercreep) aniway the character is a soft counter since she can teleport through walls if you try to dive her and go to her team-mates , and if you wana off-angle vs her she goes melee and drags you in her team with the grab combo

Black Cat : If DD was Magik 2.0 with way better sustain and CC , Black Cat is Magik 3.0 with way better mobility and utility , the char is broken , you can't dive her she runs she can do 5 double jumps before she touches the ground , she beats you with her whip into i-frame combo with no counterplay , and don't even get me started about her utility , i hope she is hard nerffed next patch.

Aniway i hope Magik will get buffed next season , like i already said i don't want her to be meta but only more balanced and not this niche C tier char that is only a little bit above the edge of bad characters like Wanda for exemple .

She might get a little bit of a buff all the high elo content creators says she is bad like Cozy that is aparently their representative , and needs some love since they put her in almost the lowest tier .

What buffs i hope for her next season :

1. Omni-directional portals

2. 275 base-hp

3. Self-stun after ult reduced to 0,4 seconds

4. Window follow-up available for spin/demon to 5 seconds

5. Fall-off buffed with 30% in both base and ult

Tier list made by a console player from cel1 from the SillySphark discord, that said he is in the contact with top500/eternity players where no one says Magik is op and only the c&d and sue players say that , we must start asking netease for buffs( i already send them 4 tickets , 2 actually but on both their site and in game) otherwise this char will stay C tier , just a little bit above the edge of bad characters , there is no real reason to play Magik right now for the following reaons :

1. From the 49 chars you can name at least half like 25 that counters her .

2. She has no place in the current meta because her niche of brawl/dive is not strong enough.

3. She is powercreept by the new gen of dps that do her job but better and with less counterplay : Cat ( magik 3.0 with way better mobility and utility ) , DD ( magik 2.0 with way better sustain and CC ) , Elsa ( range magik with way better ult almost best dps ult beside wolverine) , Killpool ( almost range magik but he is better because he has less counterplay , and he becomes op after all the upgrades which he keeps in overtime play 3-3 ) , Spiderman ( way better diver who can throw people from the map ) etc .

I suggets you to send your ideas to NetEase about what you want about Magik for her to actually find a place in this meta that will come, and to not remain this niche C tier character that you have to swap after one good fight .

My opinion about her skins .
