Chessking345
Player Skill: 8
Builder Skill: 7
Mental: 4
X-Factor: 1.5
Overall: 20.5
comments: Solid player, struggles with building things other than typical balance structures, but that's a pretty common BH pitfall. Hasn't been too in touch with the meta recently but is still on council and has a long history in BH. Still one of the premier starter choices despite these flaws.

TTTech
Player Skill: 7
Builder Skill: 9.5
Mental: 3
X-Factor: 3.5
Overall: 24
comments: Probably the best player in the tier. Highly consistent builds without being locked into the stall he is most known for. A good player but an exellent builder and very good at inducing fear in his opponent through the guessing game of whether he loads hard stall or unconventional offense. Poor record last OMPL may affect a typically good mental. Shame you can't draft this guy.

Quantum Tesseract
Player Skill: 10
Builder Skill: 7
Mental: 5
X-Factor: 1
Overall: 23
comments: The most consistent player in the tier who ladders frequently and typically gets far in every BH tournament. The reason they are below TTTech is that I don't believe they thrive in a bo1 environment, given that they very consistently load balance or BO teams and are therefore vulnerable to getting matchup fished. Shame you can't draft this player.

comments: pokejeff is my favorite pokemon political commentator. This player truly understands that BH is in fact a class struggle. The proletariat (users of cool and innovative mons like simple victory dance power trip) is in an eternal class struggle against the bourgeoisie (fur coat take heart arceus) while oppressed by the police (imposter) and religion, the opioid of the masses (balance structures).

Player Skill: 5
Builder Skill: 6
Mental: 2
X-Factor: 2
Overall: 15
comments: The underdog of this tournament, currently unproven which explains their low stats. Will our hero finally get drafted and prove themselves or will they fall back to the depths of rejection? Find out next time on OMPL.

Clas
Player Skill: 7
Builder Skill: 4

X-Factor: 5
Overall: 19.5
comments: Luckiest player in the tier. Will load an objectively bad team and not get punished because their opponent will have loaded something that totally fails to exploit its flaws. (Genuinely a pretty good clicker too thanks to lots of tour experience)

Ivar57
Player Skill: 9
Builder Skill: 7.5
Mental: 4.5
X-Factor: 2
Overall: 23
comments: Ivar is just a consistent player not much else to say, although I kinda doubt BH is the slot of choice for them. Shame you can't draft this guy.

pdt
Player Skill: 7
Builder Skill: N/A
Mental: 2.5
X-Factor: 3
Overall: 19 (does not build - 12.5/20)
comments: idk I only know them from last ompl

RoFnA
Player Skill: 7.5
Builder Skill: 7
Mental: 4.5
X-Factor: 3
Overall: 22
comments: Very agressive and innovative player who has no fear in using matchup fishy offensive teams to their fullest extent. Risks losing the fish and getting fucked over, but is good enough to sometimes pull through even in bad situations.

rightclicker
Player Skill: 6.5
Builder Skill: 6.5
Mental: 2.5
X-Factor: 3
Overall: 18.5
comments: Relatively strong player who has proven themselves competent for sure, but doesn't have the results to be rated much higher. Certainly a good gamble for a manager who needs a low-budget BH slot. More of a mainer than a lot of higher rated players so likely to be valuable even in support due to being in-touch with the meta.

BoingK
Player Skill: 6.5
Builder Skill: 5
Mental: 3.5
X-Factor: 2
Overall: 17
comments: Solid enough player but hasn't been particularly active in BH, probably a good support option but IMO not a good starter without significant support in building and testing, maybe a good choice if a team already has a player like Ivar or QT but is slotting them elsewhere.

Codename C.A.T.
Player Skill: 6.5
Builder Skill: 4
Mental: 3
X-Factor: 3
Overall: 16.5
comments: Similar to BoingK, solid enough player but not starter material without heavy support.

comments: Have not seen enough of this player. Probably a great player but out of touch with the meta, although they did play in OMWC. We said that about city last OMPL though...

aerobee

comments: Have not seen enough of this player. However, given their custom game and PH stuff, they are probably cooking something.

Sulo

comments: I don't know Sulo's playstyle much, but they seem pretty competent. With decent support they can likely do well.

anaconja (did not sign up for bh but didn't not sign up for bh either)
Player Skill: 8.5
Builder Skill: 6
Mental: 5
X-Factor: 4
Overall: 23.5
comments: Outstanding player who could easily be one of the best in the pool... if not for the fact they have zero interest in the tier.

XxSevagxX
Player Skill: 9
Builder Skill: 6.5
Mental: 4
X-Factor: 4.5
Overall: 24
comments: Very strong BH player who consistently uses stuff even wackier than cityscapes but still makes it work. Very good track record in prefulldex and natdex even though he's been pretty absent from BH recently. Low builder score is mostly for consistency issues, not quality issues.

cityscapes
Player Skill: 8.5
Builder Skill: 8
Mental: 4.5
X-Factor: 5
Overall: 26
comments: Long-time top BH player who seems to have quit for good now. If she does show up she'll do great again, big surprise. Understands BH on a very fundamental level and probably won't need any support if drafted.

Tea Guzzler
Player Skill: 8
Builder Skill: 7.5

comments: Good player dragged down by poor tours mental, probably explaining the lack of signup.

Nihilslave
Player Skill: 7
Builder Skill: 9
Mental: 3.5
X-Factor: 4.5
Overall: 24
comments: High-tier player but even if they do sign up, unwilling to play due to lack of interest. As a support option Nihilslave is an amazing builder but their teams are potentially too hard to use for an intermediate pilot.

Onyx Onix 7
Player Skill: 10
Builder Skill: 10
Mental: 2
X-Factor: 5
Overall: 27
comments: Will not be signing up afaik. Basically a more extreme version of TTTech, with more of a focus on the cheese and stall as the fallback. Scariest player in the tier. Currently preoccupied with completing the randpoke challenge on BH ladder with every monotype.

Geneku2
Player Skill: 6
Builder Skill: 5
Mental: 3
X-Factor: 2
Overall: 16
comments: Solid ladder player, Currently pretty limited in their teams and I'd like to see them sign up and play because I think they have a lot of potential.

Demon Queen
Player Skill: 8
Builder Skill: N/A
Mental: ?
X-Factor: ?
Overall: ?
comments: I have only seen this player use teams build by other people, but they have consistently piloted them exellently. During pre-fulldex, they notably piloted the sample team "Frighteners" on ladder significantly better than its creator. If they decide to sign up, they'd likely be a solid clicker if passed good teams.

Hallward / The Guy Who Has Many Alts

comments: Don't be fooled by Akira trying to bring his draft ranking down!! I believe he is actually one of the strongest BH players right now. He's built a lot of very strong and consistent teams. While they may all seem similar, there's subtle differences, between all of them, which make big impacts during a game. He has a sneaky good X-Factor, which make prep difficult.

its a me pokejeff haha im here with inh tierlist

nr1 bijou
huge glowup since wc I think inh is by far his best tier and he's the most safe pick if u want a consistent player who will win
nr2 don
this guy builds very good but some could argue his playing leaves a bit to be desired
nr3 gary
gary is the ladder goat builds some of the best teams and is very up to date with meta (I think he established like half our current meta)
nr4 cscl
good builder good playerhasnt kept up with tier much + ik he's busy so might not be the most invested
nr5 ana
literally what I said abt cscl but more emphasize on the busy and good builder parts
every1 e else is randos who doesn't rlly play tho I'm sure some tours players could pick up the tier

Dunfan is a great builder but idk how much he plays. i think if u want builder + clicker as ur inh core this is ur best builder.
augustakira knows how to build and is good at making innovative teams and has a very unique view on the tier tho ur actually dumb if u start them in inh over bh
