Specialist upgrades

More map-dependent. Upgrade when you actively play their strongest maps or modes — open any map row in the map tierlist to confirm rotation fit.

Upgrade later

Tracked enough but weaker current scores. Lower priority unless you main them.

How to use it

Public meta guidance. Player-specific recommendations layer in once you connect your profile.

Upgrade broad, stable brawlers first when resources are limited. The list above ranks them by score plus coverage so a one-map carry never beats a consistent generalist.

Pick specialists when your favorite modes or current rotation maps match their best samples. Use the map tierlist to check what is live, then upgrade only the specialists whose top maps you actually play.

Use lower-priority picks for comfort, quests, or personal mains rather than pure efficiency. Want a deeper read? Drop the name into Ask AI for a tailored breakdown.
