My BFN Tier List:

Well, finally, I'm here to introduce you my new tier list, it took a long time because I wanted to study the game after the November update, I have no idea if this pattern will change in the future, but be assured of one thing: it was very difficult to decide this tier list, especially in the top tier and some specific characters. But anyway, let's start:

 

*Why do i post a Tier List in this Forum? Because this might help the developers see what is strong or what is weak right now in the game, i just want to help them with my opinion on the characters (be sure to see the explanations before making an opinion about the list).

 

The Tier List follows the obvious order: the lower the worse the characters are, the higher, the stronger the characters are, there is also order within the tiers: ascending order from left to right. Characters vary their strength within their own tiers, as seen in these "+" or "-" in their icons, characters with "+" represent the best characters within their respective tiers, varying the strength between them, characters with " - " represent the worst characters within their respective tiers, also varying the strength between them.

 

I am a player of PvZ GW, GW2 and BFN, I had more than 2500 hours of play on GW2, I want to reach that number on BFN. I am max rank in GW2 and BFN, I studied each character of the game and want to know everyone's opinion on the following tier list:

 

Well, I need to give some necessary explanations about some things on the tier list that will make some people confused, so come on:

 

.Top Tier: Well, as I said at the beginning, I had a hard time completing a Top Tier in this game because of four characters: Scientist, Citron, Super Brainz and Enginner. They are all very strong and have great potential to be the best, not including the Space Station with passengers present (3 or 4), which makes it the best "thing" in the whole game by far. After studying hard all the characters again, I conclude that the best ones in the game are Scientist and CItron, they have the most options, they do it all alone, they have extremely broken upgrades (mainly Citron, and I'm not even talking about the laser upgrades) and win any matchup (except against themselves). Super Brainz and Enginner are still very strong and this is unquestionable, but I believe they are no longer rated "best in the game".

 

.Deadbeard and Cactus: These are two characters that everyone will doubt their positioning, but I will talk about them: they are EXTREMELY underated. They are super improved versions of what was Camo Cactus in GW2, Deadbeard has broken abilities, both have a good close range option, very strong drones among other things. I think Deadbeard is better because of its abilities and, for some reason I can't understand, I find him much more "functional" and easier to play than Cactus.

 

.Z-Mech: I put Z-Mech separate from Imp because of how much better it is compared to Imp, Imp's best build is now completely based on Z-Mech Call, generating what we see in online games: MANY Z-Mechs. He has great damage, Madness is still very good, and a broken Eject, literally the only thing I find useless about him is the Bionic Bash, which is literally a port of GW2's Robo Stomp, which I already found useless.

 

.Chomper and 80s: These are two dubious characters too, both have great potential to be High Tiers, but I've always found them very easy to deal with, so I decided to put them in the Mid, but make sure one thing: they're the best Mid Tier characters, almost going to High Tier.

 

.Sunflower: I was very doubtful where to put Sunflower, as she can carry entire teams with her Healing. however, I think she really deserves only the mid tier, because she needs a good team to get along, without that team she becomes useless.

 

.Snapdragon: This one is going to make some people really mad at me, but I really think he's mid tier, he has potential I won't lie, but he has MANY problems to be a high tier, like his size, skills with many bugs in between and others.

 

.Corn and Imp: Everyone will agree that these two are here, but I must give an explanation as to why they are in this state now: they are bad GW2 Ports, they just took them from GW2, nerf some stuff, and passed to BFN. PopCap really needs to review them, their situation is depressing, Gravity Grenade, Shuck Shot and Husk Hop are jokes now, skills that just don't match the game.

 

Well, this was my tier list, please guys, remember: this is my opinion, if you have any questions or disagree with some position, say in the comments, I want to know everyone's opinion. Thanks! 🙂

  • @GutmanSca Wow, a lot of work must have gone into that! I don't feel I can properly judge your tier list, as I've not mastered everything yet, but I would maybe say you need to put full space station in the top tier - you've put oak & acorn and imp & mech in separately, so I would do the same with the cadet & space station.
    If you're ever bored, I'd love to see an analysis of all the upgrades!! 😆
  • @chompchomf I think this tier list is more based on how effectively characters can fufill their intended purposes. Sunflower, the healer, is crazy good at healing. Imp and corn, the attackers (that are supposed to go around vanquishing dudes), seriously struggle with attacking and vanquishing.
  • @chompchomf Sunflower definitely took the biggest dumbing-down of all the old characters, which I hate! She's not completely useless though, when protected by team-mates or supported by another sunflower
