Snegurochka is just a bit disappointing for what we were all hoping for out of a 4* Agent. Vetochki meanwhile is decent enough for what she is, but what she is isn't that special.
The tier list update for Episode 16 is out! Mantra initially fits in at S-. She's pretty good, but a bit off what we've gotten used to the last few patches. Vetochki and Snegurochka both fit in at C+.

Additionally, Lumen and Shining have both gone down one tier. They just don't really do anything special these days, so they have very little value, even assuming investment already.
Tier list has been updated for the Ave Mujica patch! Sakiko slots in at S+, Mutsumi at A, Uika and B, Umiri and B-, and Nyamu brings up the rear at C. Pretty powerful patch aside from Nyamu!

I know everyone is all talking about the livestream (RA3 let's goooo), but the Mastery guide for the Ave Mujica collab is up on both LD and S;G.

Tier List has been updated for Ato! Hoshi2 is an easy S+ and Haruka isn't far behind at S. This is the start of some pretty extreme banners so, best of luck to us all.

Big update today! In addition to the new units being added (Leizi2 and Raidian both S+), we've also made a huge overhaul to the top end. The top end was just too bloated. You can find the full details over on the list itself.

Yu has been moved to S+. Potential man has been meeting his potential lately. It took a bit for Yu to come into his own, but he's proven the value of both his teleport and his firewall over the last few months.
#Arknights
The Tier List update for Act or Die is up! Tragodia is our latest EX, and one of the easiest to place there. He's a must-pull unit. Tippi and Miss.Christine slot in lower.

The Tier List update for The Masses' Travels is up! Exu of course slots into EX but her sister not quite as high. Crownslayer got a big promotion and the IS mods look juicy. Check out the sheet for the full update!

#Arknights
A few small rebalancing changes to the Tier List before we get to the big stuff later this week. Gravel up to B+, Waai Fu up to B-, and Tuye down to C+.
#Arknights
There are too many updates to list here, so check out the revisions page for the full explanation of the overhaul.
The Tier List update for Dissociative Recombination is live! In anticipation of the next six months where every new unit is S+ or EX, we have also overhauled the upper tiers. Mon3tr slots into the newly updated list at a very strong S+!

#Arknights
The Tier List update for When Elegies Are Ashes is up! Necrass debuts at S-. She isn't bad, but this is the last easy skip banner before the big gauntlet, so save your pulls!

Whisperain - B- - We count a few Whisperain defenders in our ranks, but we weren't comfortable with Nowell at the same grade as the other B Medics. Whisperain ultimately sticks out among them, so it made more sense to bring her down than Nowell up. (3/3)
Egg2: The powercreep is so insane that even in the short life of the current tier list, it's already too top heavy! It ultimately didn't make sense Egg was so much higher than Ente. He's still a great unit, but laneholders just aren't as good as they used to be. (2/3)
Additionally, we've made two changes for consistency with the new units. Executor the Ex Foedere down to S- and Whisperain to to B. (1/3)
The Tier List update for See You Soon is up! It's a pretty weak banner this time, so not a whole lot to say. Save your pulls!

The tier list update for Such is the Joy of Our Reunion is up! Compared to the last updates, this one isn't nearly as high powered, but still some pretty good units!

#Arknights
The Tier List is updated for the new units in the Exodus from the Pale Sea patch in a few days. Pretty solid patch, but not busted levels either. It's the start of the calm before the upcoming storm...

Mr. Nothing up to B+. Mr. Nothing has had moments in the spotlight before (IS3), but even outside that, the advantages of the Merchant archetype and his Talent synergize to allow him to punch above his weight with high DPH and abusable stun.
Vermeil down to C-. When she was brand new and there weren't many options, Vermeil was usable with her multi-target. Nowadays though, with so many better welfare options, she looks far worse, with the lowest DPH among the 4-5* Marksman and no utility.
Totter - Up to B+. Totter has some pretty remarkable damage for a 4*, plus pretty rare utility and a huge range. While much of it does get outshined by higher rarities, he brings enough to justify being one of the higher graded at his rarity. 7/7
Blue Poison - Up to B+. Marksman are not a super valuable archetype (unless you're Kroos2), but among them BP is usually the best non-6*. She has a high DPH consistent skill, and a high DPS burst skill which ultimately gives her a lot of flexibility for the DP cost. 6/7
Firewatch - Up to A-. Firewatch has a stupidly good cycle, good DPH, and true stealth, plus can flex to a big nuke. It all makes for a very powerful 5* that's more valuable than the first 6* in her archetype. 5/7
Kroos2 - Up to A. How is Kroos2 a welfare? Her total damage is so ridiculous that she has been consistently valuable since her release, plus has control on top. She is arguably the most impactful welfare we've ever had. 4/7
April - Up to A. April is probably the most unique 5*, with no higher rarity alternative in the 4.5 years since her release. Her instantly available stealth and damage marks her as a unique value that can solve a lot of problems even higher rarities struggle with. 3/7
