I really think that BrawelEX should be in the Possible Tier List Designers. He is quite the good opponent when it comes to Duels.

I think i've just realised a way on how to find out their peak points exactly, but i shall have to edit it tonight instead.

Also i think Brawler should go in the possible chart crashers too, he's definitely good enough for it.

Maybe I shouldn't be on it yet. Let's at least see if I am able to get some medals. Then again MoD hasn't updated this in a long time.

I think he updates it after every LDC and WITLO**/WITBLOAT finish. So yeah. :3

Carrying over what I said in the Duel topic here.

As an answer to the questions, yes, duels do affect your tier placement, although they're taken into account during routine big changes caused by LDCs, RVs and WITBLOs, among others. However, just beating a high tier designer doesn't automatically mean you switch spots with them, it means that you will definitely hit a few notches up the list and maybe, depending on the performance of the losing dueler. The latter is less likely to happen. In your case, Nan, if you do happen to beat Volcove, something tells me you'd go from 24 to anywhere between 18-21. Depends on the level itself. This would be unlikely to knock Volcove down unless he happened to do unintentionally subpar work.

In the case of BrawlerEX and Karyete, seeing as they were both designers of around equal talent, I'd foresee a nice debut in the bronze tier for Brawler, around the late 20s, maybe 30. This would be more determined by the results Brawler returns in the 18th LDC, the next time a tier would update. Odds are you'll make it, though.

And sorry for the misinformation, the tier was updated early March last, with minor edits in regards to the official WITBLO11 list.

If you do select a place for me in the third tier due to the 18th LDC results, I must ask that you do not to judge my rank on the second part of my entry for that was completely rushed and possibly my worst work. Is it possible that you could do this MoD?

It really depends on your overall score and your impact on designing. Time will tell, Brawler.

and between you, me, and the floorboards, I didn't find your second part to be bad at all- just buggy.

Several edits done, but I had to rush. Details will be ironed out tomorrow.

    MessengerOfDreams leaps into the top 5, gaining 4th.
    Level4 and King switch spots- level4 is now in the top 10.
    Nin10mode and DarkBlaze leap to 15th and 14th from 20th and 17th.
    Doram moves up 1 to 18, switching with Killswitch
    Amp breaks silver tier at 20th
    Yoshi Boo 118 jumps to 24th
    Brawler and Mega debut on the tiers at 28th and 30th.
    AwesomeJRFD is knocked down to chartcrashers and is joined by portal designer Jose_242.

...I think I accidentally deleted someone. o.o

I feel as though we've talked about special placings before. Like, King of Gameplay/Graphics/etc, and lower tiers of said areas. Can we?

And yay :P
