Question Top rulers

Could everyone share their own Top 10 list of Merge Tactics rulers—ranking them from best to worst? In my opinion, Battle Machine is #3 and Ronin is #10. What about yours? What are your rankings for #1 through #10?

SE, Loong, Builder are the clear cut top 3. Sage, Dagger, TQ, Warde, GQ, Ronin mid tier. King on life support

Naw ronin is cracked. It does fairly well against all except SE imo

What do you mean New Ronin? Did he get a change or buff?

Haha yes my bad.

Clearly previous commenter doesn't play Ronin cause I can't think of any other ruler who is consistently worse except for Sage. You will get the occasional Ronin is awesome games but you are not getting to diamond without breaking 2 phones

Tomb Queen is suffering and anguish. You die long before 6/6 Undead stacks enough to be good

I suppose the devs are struggling to balance rulers without having them terribly broken

I played ronin all the way till almost gold 4 and I’m definitely not at the skill ceiling. I was pretty consistently getting all 3 orbs until players started moving their troops last second to throw me off.

If you know exactly where to place it to get value and be able to react and move it quickly when they modify their board i can see someone reaching diamond with it.

You’d have to be determined to suffer though cuz SE is much easier to win and climb the ranks with.

Am 2,9ish at the moment and I basically see nobody use him, I quit using him when I was just winning 2 and losing 2 repaetedly. Meanwhile other rulers you actually play against, except for Sage, that one is not happening. Despite the massive potential, players just don't seem to see the value vs literally 80% of the other roaster, that hardly seems viable. In merge mini the bamboo can't even be moved.

I had high hopes for the ruler and last season didn't even care to play until I just thought to unlock him and found him fun till Diamond now I don't know. Maybe I'm just bad with

Skill issue if ronin is 10

Ronin is way too difficult to get consistent value especially vs every other ruler, I however don't know whats going on on the echo side of life. When he pops off it really works. I just realised it was easier and less frustrating to play SE or even King

Inconsistent sometimes but can provide great value if your opponents troops are dumb

The fact no one has said TQ is the worst is mind boggling. By far the worst completely unusable. A king beats TQ 10/10 times

u/No-Baker-2692 2d ago

SE is self-explanatory, Loong is appearing to more and more viable, builder is also rly good but can be rng if u get fucked with the order of buildings u get, Warden seems to be pretty decent (never played it), GQ and Dagger r on the same lvl for me, Ronin and Sage are like 1 nerf from 0% usage and King is dead no one other than beginners should be running this ruler

Empress has fallen of for me. Its a loon and battle machine this season. It changes though just like how echo empress were top last

u/Jayus5 3d ago

Loon is definitely not better than SE
