Do writers read power tier (lore wise ) lists?

I would like to know what they think about. It is always fun for me, even sometimes I don't create a message, I usually read them.

I know Rioters occasionally delve into "Who's the most powerful" conversations, but not in any real serious sort of way. I don't always read them, because A) they're usually quite similar - you've seen one tier list, you've seen em all, and B) there's a lot of good stuff to read round here, I need to be selective! I'm more interested in worldbuilding convos.

It's fun to think about, but sometimes it feels a bit like asking "What's the best ice-cream flavor?". There's a lot of reasons why you might favor one or the other, and there are obviously big hitters and niche picks, but other than just turning into shouting matches about why no-one in their right mind would say strawberry, it usually results in agreeing that many different flavors have things to commend them, and depending on circumstance one might be better than the other.

Also, narrative never comes in and lays down the law on that one - and I'm happy they don't. Where's the fun of wild speculation if someone just comes in and says "It's mint choc chip. Get over it."

I like to check them out here and there. But, as Bio noted about the Narrative crew, I don't like to skew a fun debate with a prescriptive answer. But the answer is Bard.[slayer-jinx-wink]

Tier lists? What do you mean by that?
