CLAS'S BIG VERY REAL VERY ACCURATE LCMNM PLAYER TIER LIST
also includes players that havent signed up (marked in italics and a red dash)


S - Your GG Atha-level players. May just X-0 pool.

  • Quinn - Won LCMnM Kickoff without any clear LCMnM mainer support and picked the tier up super fast. Also has great knowledge of both LC and MnM alongside just being a very good clicker.
  • Yoru97 aka H4ruto - LC OMs and LCMnM tier leader, and someone that can punch with the best despite lacking tournament results due to not playing in them. Will have by far the most activity in the tournament, but will also demand tests on a daily basis for potentially an hour or longer. If you want a player with high potential RoI, get H4ru.
  • Clas - I hate nominating myself high on these lists, but when talking to H4ru he raised a very good point that is basically impossible to challenge. Since the criteria I have for S is people that would generally dominate the pool excluding when facing other S-tier players, it's not really possible to lower myself down.
    1768081936558.png

A - Solid players that know the meta well. They might not go undefeated but can succeed without support.

  • bleahey - Unlikely that he'll play HE SIGNED UP???, but is the main offense builder for the tier and has a lot of flexibility with his builds. Also a highly respectable LC main.
  • Velcroc - A bit of a choker (how do you choke 3 finals in the same week bro) but picked up the tier very quickly and was the LCMnM Kickoff finalist. Also a strong player in general, but they definitely need to think about their endgame planning more. With that endgame planning present, they're probably in S.
  • Esteb4n - Very unlikely to play, but they did incredibly well back in 2024's TPP without anyone supporting them, going 4-1 at the minimum and if they made playoffs then definitely did better after that. Also a VERY good clicker. Up to them if they want to play again, though.
  • Glory - I taught Glory LCMnM in 2024 where he greatly succeeded, but he hasn't played the meta since. Very solid player overall, though, and will probably start dominating in later weeks, as long as his mental is there.

B - Players that are decent at the game but have limited current meta knowledge or generally require support to succeed.

  • giove97 - Giove has a ton of experience in LCMnM thanks to constantly practicing with H4ru, but her general nervousness leads to inconsistency. With lots of practice with the teams she plans on using on a week-by-week basis she'll succeed most likely, but without that practice she'll probably lose.
  • zastra - While a strong MnM player, zastra has building tendencies that make him a poor fit for LCMnM and his dislike for the current meta and tunnel visioning on unreliable sets often impedes his success in such a comparatively volatile meta. With someone keeping him in check he'll likely succeed if forced into LCMnM, but he will complain a lot.
  • Novax - LC main with a little LCMnM experience. While they will need some help with spread optimisation due to lack of meta knowledge, their ability to adapt to using a wide range of playstyles makes me put them above the average LC main that would otherwise seem suboptimal offensive builds best.
  • qtfox - Fox is a very solid player and builder, but she does like to run some very questionable sets and teams. She'll likely succeed with someone keeping her in check that wants to play other tiers but has some interest in the LCMnM metagame, but will probably falter without that support.
  • Zcarlett - Highly doubt she'll play due to saying she didn't have fun in 2024 as she didn't have any support or prior meta knowledge and then got bleahey -> H4ru back to back W1/2, but with support she probably succeeds if she tries.


C - Players that have no prior relevant meta knowledge or are good supporters. They may be hidden gems or fool's gold.

  • HiZo - crackhead who builds wild stuff and is generally a good player
  • dhelmise - never seen them play but they surely do at least decently well
  • DragonPhoenix333 - picks up tiers fast, such as with camove, and has greatly improved over the years. that said, they will struggle for week 1 and maybe week 2, plus may prefer other tiers
  • Tbp24 - same as dragonphoenix
  • rarre - LC main but never seen them play
  • Ringmaster Uta - feel like ive seen them play but i dont remember. if they have then theyre like low B
  • TrainerGoldAlt - bro has not played lcmnm in years but has direct clas/haru support
  • zmath - clicker
  • Rei - ph main and general clicker
  • pecha nerd - havent seen then play but i think they have? generally best as a support for lcmnm either way though
  • Mok3s - clicker
  • lag=bad - ph main and general clicker
  • Greybaum - om/um main but i havent seen them play lc or mnm before. very strong player tho, probably greatly succeeds w/ proper support
  • Swas - clicker
  • any good, long-time LC main
  • any good, long-time MnM main

If I missed anyone then I apologise - let me know and I'll rank them accordingly!
