The goal of this Tier List is to inform Quick Match players regarding how strong Heroes are in the current metagame.

Introduction
The goal of this Tier List is to inform Quick Match players regarding how strong Heroes are in the current metagame.
Guidelines
Tanks and Healers are not that popular in Quick Match. Because of this, Heroes who are more independent (such as having engage tools when there is no Tank) and can do fine in an environment where team compositions may not follow any conventions (for example having self-sustain when there is no Healer) should be preferred as they have more chances to succeed.
Tier S
In this tier you can find overpowered Heroes that will do great in most games.
Notes
Brightwing is a well-rounded Healer with crowd control, global presence, a powerful Cleanse effect, and a solid healing output. She is particularly good at dealing with high-mobility Heroes (for example Genji).
Dehaka excels on big Maps, where you can get value from
Brushstalker to quickly join your team.
This tool can be used to outnumber the enemy team while
the enemy Offlaner is busy somewhere else
or still traveling due to not being global like Dehaka.
Hogger is a well-rounded Bruiser who can clear Minions and Mercenaries efficiently and dish out a solid amount of damage against Heroes during team fights, especially in the late game.
Johanna is not only the most durable Tank in the whole game but she can also provide a good amount of crowd control to disrupt enemy plans and help her teammates in team fights.
Mephisto is the most powerful Ranged Assassin in the game when it comes to damage done to enemy Heroes in team fights, however, he does not excel at macro, especially at capturing Mercenaries. Avoid unnecessary team fights and spread when fighting against him.
Nazeebo can keep stacking Voodoo Ritual,
his Baseline Quest, on Minions during the game. This mechanic allows him
to become extremely powerful in the late game
against teams who let him farm uncontested.
Rehgar is currently a solid Healer who can provide a balanced mix of sustain and burst healing, with the ability to quickly clear Minions and Mercenaries.
At the cost of being not that strong in team fights, Samuro has one of the best kits for playing macro (self-sustain, good waveclear, escape tools).
Zeratul is a formidable Melee Assassin that, thanks to his mobility and damage output, can easily threaten most Ranged Assassins. On bigger Maps, with the appropriate Build, he can even split-push.
Tier A
In this tier you can find strong Heroes that will perform well in a lot of games.
Tier B
In this tier you can find good Heroes that will generally be fine but not that strong.
Tier C
In this tier you can find situational Heroes that will only do well in some circumstances.
Tier D
In this tier you can find weak Heroes that will do poorly in most games.
