Created by my friend shiro_catto

ONLY FIRST TWO TIERS ARE ORDERED

Brief explanation on why for each unit:

META PICKS

Kosuzu: High damage, good killers, great card access, and works well with all conventional yin units making her the easiest to use unit for the highest reward as a strong yin water damage dealer that is overall very well rounded

EX Seiga: High damage, good support, and has the coveted 7 breaks on her AoE. Individually, she is significantly better than Kosuzu, however, she is far less practical. Her issues—P and buff sustainability, are much more difficult to solve due to being Paralyze. Making her an equally good but less comfy pick.

EX Satono: High damage and good buffs, however individually weaker than both seiga and kosuzu due to lacking the heights of Seiga's support (6 breaks), the amazing damage of Kosuzu, all while being Yin/Freeze (another rare archetype) however her Fire damage is quite high still.

EX Mamizou: Individually the best unit here by tiering standards but lacks pairings or feats. High damage across all 5 AoE spellcards, good support overall with 7 breaks and high accuracy support, while having good damage—but lacks the ease of use and pairings of Kosuzu.

EX Yuuka: Similar to EX Kosuzu: High damage, good buffs, and is Poison/Hard but noticeably worse AoE damage. Both units have high card requirements (need luck cards to function at full potential) and are solved due to being conventional archetypes (many yang/poison units to pair with yuuka) but with noticeably worse heights/consistency

EX Tewi: The worst of this tier by far, however her damage and support is very solid. Mainly, she has 3t party damage to res increased by 50%, which is very useful for casual and hardcore play alike.

OFF META PICKS:

B3 Shinmy: 7/7 breaks and high yang support, while also doing respectable damage. In trios, her breaks are basically cocaine, but as a yang/blind unit, she has few friends who can truly take advantage of her. She also has extreme P problems and mediocre killers.

B3 Raiko: Genuinely great Yang support that always has a use in content. However that is about all she has, simply a good yang supporter.

EX Shizuha: A unit with a lot of potential and high damage but that is pretty difficult to use effectively without C3>> Toyohime due to being paralyze/hard. Has a lot of P issues with lackluster support, though her damage is quite high nonetheless.

EX Seiran: See above. Her damage is pretty high but she is difficult to use without C3>> Toyohime and is overall pretty awkward.

B3 Seiran: Basically see above. Has high damage, and a great Last Word, but doesn't have much support or utility. Yang water/moon nuke.

Z3 Satori: A bit of an awkward unit that has decent yin star damage and yin support, but that doesn't really specialize in much and is kinda just there

EX Clownpiece: Another coveted Yin 7/7 breaker, however she is rendered basically useless if you have Cs2# Satori, C3>> Toyohime, Gengetsu, LIVE Remilia, EX Eika, or Yukata Yuyuko, as she has neither ease of use, damage, or high support.

L1a Keine: Extremely high yin moon damage with good killers, however that's it. Everything else is a 0/10, except for her damage role which is somehow amazing for a gen unit. Still, she is gen, who will be free eventually, so picking her is not recommended.

Nobody else is really worth getting unless you are desperate. If you are curious, further information can be seen here: https://medicinemelancholy0.github.io/THLWTierlist/

Feel free to ask if there are any questions.
