Community Campaign Hero Tier List

By CKLSK, in Imperial Assault Campaign

Hi All!

I am currently gathering data to make an unofficial community tier list for campaign heroes. If you could fill out this form, it would be greatly appreciated!

Here is the google sheet with live results:

After a few days have passed I will post an analysis and the Tier List

Hi friend. Welcome to the boards. Don't mean to slow your roll, but you might want to check out either of these threads.

Hey Pollux,

Consider my roll unslowed. I haven't posted before but I've been playing IA for a while now. I always found those two posts to be less than helpful because it is a single person's perception of the characters. Not to mention the posts are rather dated as of now.

This post was made to scratch the itch of knowing how the community views the heroes, not just a few people.

Thank you regardless, of course

Not a bad idea- I like that you've incorporated an existing system, but opened it up to the public. Submitted my responses!

I have to admit, my faith in this was shaken while reviewing the google sheet when I saw an entry that had Fenn as an S then everyone else as a D.

Not that I want to be negative, I’m still interested to see the results.

Who voted Vinto with a D must have been an imperial very unhappy with his job and his life.

Nicely done! I submitted my evaluation.

Yeah, almost seems like that person just immediately got bored with the quiz or something. Or Fenn has a secret admirer.

It looks like there are a pretty significant amount of results, though- that troll should have a minimal effect.

If enough people participate in this, the results should actually be pretty accurate. Might be good not to be hasty to publish the results after only a few days though, you need a good sample size to create a true aggregate. Have you been sharing this doc on the other forums?

This has been posted on Reddit(first) and boardgamegeek. If you know of any other is forums, please post it there and inform me

I see someone published it on one of the FB groups, too.

Will be interesting to see what folks say. I submitted my votes.

So it looks like you're using modal results, I'm not an expert on statistics or anything, but am I correct that should theoretically prevent any outliers from skewing the results?

I am going to convert the letter grade to numbers then take a trimmed average. I will then convert that average into letter grades ranging from S+ to Biv Bodhrik

For each hero I would make an horizontal bar chart. Each bar is a tier (s, a, b, ...) and value is the count of votes for that tier. This will show more information. In example some heroes may be seen at the same time very strong or really crap (bifocal distribution). Likely they are difficult to build or they have two builds that perform differently. There'll be a lot more to discuss on this thread once you posted such results.

Has the result for this been posted yet? :P
