BC Forum Makes an Uber Tier List, Pt. 145-Iz Dancer of Grief

A+, her immunity to pretty much everything makes her one of the most versatile units in the game, I use her all the time for shield piercing and toxic stages when there are no better options for it. Not to mention insane DPS against traitless but not bad against traited either. Only issue is her low range makes her fall off a bit as an attacker in late-end game where everything can shred through your frontlines easily, but it's not as big of an issue for her as it is for her Uberfest counterpart.

A, good utility, but relies a lot on strengthen for damage, and doesnt really do much as a generalist. For comparison at level 50 they have margianally more damage than a level 50+10 pizza cat (13,210 dps vs. 15,767 dps strengthened), while having worse survivabilty, 3x the cost, and 2.5x the cooldown.

and as an anti traitless, they have the most competition out of pretty much any other anti-traitless with hitman, or for low range traitless bw-floating cat. Here are some stat comparisons

please note iz is definitely not going to be strengthened the whole time, and even when they are they still lose pretty often. Iz also has shitty multi hit that honestly just sucks ass, and makes her lose a lot of dps, and her omni is no where near big enough to compensate. Whats even worse is that hitman has ld, giving 4x the pierce, and bw flying has cracked 100% slow with over 100% uptime and mini wave half of the time to slow anything else that happens to get hit by it. Furthermore, if you use research combos these bw flying can build up like more dps than strengthend iz in like, 6 seconds.

Now, obviosly Iz does still have a lot of bulk, is a lot faster, and has good utility with being immune to pretty much everything in the game, while also have 100% s. pierce which is why they are still A tier, even if they are kinda crappy as an anti traitless.

(bonus fact, since her range is so low it prevents her from even being useful on a lot of the crazed and manic stages, which just sucks since she cant even progression skip like other epic fests)

mf im going to strangle you

you probably didnt even read it, and probably think they are better than s. gao as an anti traitless. Why do i even bother writing these out when ppl dont even think of actual practicality and instead just vote based on how much they like a unit without any regards to being objective 😔

For that purpose, she is more useful than Lasvoss imo because of her high speed but it can vary.

The majority of the ubers in A tier have some overwhelming strength in some niche, or strong usage across a lot of places, and that's what puts them in this tier. Additionally for someone to go into A+ tier they must be better than everyone in A tier, not just some of them.

Diz does have rather decent usage as an anti aku, but only as a shield piercer, she perferms quite poorly compare to other anti aku beyond that. Her low damage per hit makes sure that you will never be skipping any kbs, so the shield will be right back up, + her dps is awful without strengthen. Her range is low as well, and her pierce isnt great either. Barrel does a fantastic job when his range doesnt matter, so iz filling the same role doesnt privide as much value as they may appear to at first.

By comparison Lilin is a far stronger anti aku. Her stats are much better than diz's along with have much greater pierce, allowing her to break the shields of everyone on the field, not just those she has direct access to (50 pierce does not count). Lilin is mainly held back by bad survivability, but somehow diz is even worse, and by a good margin too. High speed, low range, and low kb counts is awful for a utility unit.

Also the speed thing makes no sense, lasvoss with talents has 18 speed. If you are comparing them to pre-tf lasvoss i can agree with you (ignoring the combo), since he does suck pretty bad before tf. But this list is evaluating ubers at absolute max, level 60 max talents, so this doesnt matter.

btw i don't think she is the worst in a tier, i can confidently say that garu, tropical kalisa, drednot, R.E.I., and ditama are worse than her.

you are soup

A Tier, Crouton made some very good points that I agree with. Outclasses by Dark’t, and faces competition with Hitman, but she has Shield Piercing so she gets A Tier.

Also, why did she get so much utility? I wish Iz got the abilities Iz has, she’d be so much better😭
