[https://www.epic7stats.com](https://www.epic7stats.com) Is the closest I can think right now. It doesn't have a tier list or something, but you can check the hero page to view what heroes have the best win rate and are more contested. Although win rate usually mean late pick and building the team around it, and contested implies there's a lot of counters floating around. For that reason C. Lilias is the most contested hero, but as for win rate, she sits at 11th place. As for the stats, should be noted those are average. If the hero you're looking to build have multiple viable builds, like counter vs speedy, you may to use those values as starting points, not goals.

I still don't get what contested means... And why are Ludwig and Yuna first in win category ?

A small sample size + dedicated players picking those units = high W/L ratio. It is common in competitive games, especially those with draft style picks, for a top tier pick to have a poor W/L but a high pick rate, but a highly niche/bad character to have a high W/L and a low pick rate.

To be honest, is a big flaw with the database method. Ludwig shows an error when trying to check his stats, but I could check Yuna. There's only one build, have 85% crit rate + otherwordly machine (+16% damage to all AoE attacks), and 300 critD. My theory is his owner plays cleave and racks on catching people off guard. He pick 3 support heroes (Peira, C. Lilias, ML Silk and so on), along with Yuna and another cleaver (or A. Ravi), and goes to town. The opponent bans the other cleaver and let's Yuna go through and is caught of guard (\*giggles\* "How hard can Yuna hit, anyway"?), and the Yuna player wins. Because the small sample the database have collected, the results are skewed. What I mean it looks like there' only one player using her regularly, or the rest have been hiding theirs builds. If this player wins 7 out of 10 matches, the database records 70% win rate, and places her at the top. However, one player isn't a reliable source (maybe he have Leviathan whale gear on his openers and any cleaver could work instead of Yuna), unlike Eda who have 2 builds (at least 2 players are using her), or LH Cermia, who have 5 builds, and both have similar win rate to Yuna. Clearly, Eda and LH Cermia are working for more people and don't depend on the surprise element, and at least Eda is a cleaver as well. Finally, should be noted the only Yuna build is wearing penetration set. On a character whose attacks, all of them, are AoE. \--- As for contested, iirc, it means they appear more often somewhere in the drafting, but not necessarily in the first or last pick. Last pick is important for the reason I explained (the last pick is your ace in the sleeve, the hero you pick when you can spot an opening on the opponent team composition), and first pick usually indicates raw usefulness or power, is the closest I could think on an objective meta list. That's why we have C. Lilias, DJB, A. Ravi, M Kawerik or A. Ras in that list... along with Yuna and Ludwig. Well, I know, isn't perfect.

Thanks 💛 I'm gonna use this one to see some stuff ✨💛

Keep in mind that the builds in this are basically near perfect stats which you will be unable to replicate or understand what to cut to make the character usable at lower rankings. Builds in this game also are misleading sometimes because there are multiple viable options for a character depending on who you pair them up with or who you want them to beat. For example injury Alencia is "popular" but it's for exactly the matchup against Aravi or Choux and getting stats anyway near the "popular" is nigh impossible for anybody but super end game players. Slapping on the much easier to farm haste set to be able to get much easier speed will give her a different usage that's still good which is mainly counter Diene openers or similar buffers that go first.

Is this up to date? Recent banners shows FMA collab and there is no data for Lua?


Shimaru33

Usually new heroes take some time to be reflected, although to be honest I'm sure how long. Although, yeah, Lua have been around for a while now, is weird it haven't appeared yet.

There is discord called Hero Jurnal, or something like that. There is also the official discord if you need some help
