This is a tier list about flanks
every champ can flank, but well, some are obviously better than others, especially the Flank Champs. (Because they are made for it)
The things that make a Good Flank Champ:
High DPS
Good Mobility/Out of jail free card
Extra: Good Self-Heal

Flanking is usually used to take out 1-2 priority targets, then disengage, otherwise, you will just get gunned down by the enemy team.

ss

Evie Evie

The best in the game, useable in almost every situation, good in everything they do, no significant downsides.

Evie is well, Evie.
Extreme good mobility with fast cooldowns, good self-heal with the right cards and good DPS, can disengage really easy, can kill very easy, can heal fast to reengage, and doesn't have to wait for cooldowns.
Because of that, SS tier.
The only thing bad is her HP, but you shouldn't stay in a fight for long anyway, just look out for those strix players, because they might just instakill you.
(I hate evie, but she is just that good.)

s+

Androxus Androxus
Maeve Maeve

Very good flankers, useable in almost every situation.

Androxus:
Good Mobility, good self-heal with the right cards, and with the right deck, his cooldowns are almost nonexistent
his DPS is good, but his revolver has a big spread if fired too fast, because of that only S+ tier.

Maeve:
Insane Mobility, Average self-heal, but only slightly above-average DPS, making her slightly miss SS tier, her mobility is just insane, but she lacks the DPS and her Self heal is also not the best, S+ tier because of her mobility.

s

Moji Moji
Buck Buck

Good Flankers useable in almost every situation, but which also have some things holding them down.

Moji:
Average mobility, INSANE burst damage, and good self-heal, the damage might be cool and all, but well, you will kill one, then probably die, because of your mediocre Movement ability, S Tier because her DPS is higher than some ults. (Also her ult is pretty good against tanks.)

Buck:
My favorite champ in the game, but I have to admit he has some things keeping him away from S+ or even SS.
Using bounce house, he can engage in a fight, burst down the enemy, and immediately disengage again, he also has a good self-heal ability, that doesn't need cards to be reliable, he has a good ult which buffs his already good DPS even more, but the thing keeping him down is firstly his hitbox being pretty large, and he being too reliant on hitting the jump.
Tl.dr: Good DPS, Good Self-heal, Good mobility, but way too reliant to hit that bounce house leap, basically dead when missing the leap.

Koga Koga
Talus Talus

Extremely strong in a few situations, but mediocre outside of them.

Koga:
Might sound good on paper, and he is really solid, Good Damage, Good Self-heal, but what really holds him down is his mobility, damage immunity and removing any negative effects is cool and all, but the path is super easy to predict, your other ability for movement is also not good, and the climbing up walls is only useful in super specific situations.
Slightly missed S-, but his mobility isn't good enough for that.

Talus:
Similarly to Koga, sounds good on paper, high DPS, good escape options, but no mobility, you might be able to get a few kills, but that's just it, you are also very easy to hit and have mediocre at best self-heal, you are also super vulnerable to people camping your rune exit. just barely got A+, really bad mobility outside of his Rune.
(His ult is also pretty useless because supports will usually be next to the tanks, good luck with killing them when the entire team gets alerted what you are up to.)

a

Lex Lex
Zhin Zhin

Characters effective in a good few situations.

Lex: People might disagree but I think lex is pretty good, with good aim, the right talent and deck he can essentially slide around forever with 90% Damage reduction and CC immunity, but well, his Damage is bad, his guns get way too inaccurate when firing too fast and his ult is too reliant on his team to deal enough damage.
A Tier, he can barely be killed if you have good aim but he won't kill anyone either, also with the right cards you can have a permanent 50% speed increase as well, which just makes you even harder to hit.

Zhin:
Good disengage options, good mobility, good ult to take out priority targets, just his DPS is well, his range is limited for his first 2 swings, and in general you will not have fun with him, as a flank your fights shouldnt go longer then 5 seconds, which they usually are with Zhin, but he can be effective in a good few situations.

Skye Skye

Too specific.

Skye is trash, invisibility is cool and all, but when you get discovered you have no chance to get out alive, she might deal good damage, but she is way too reliant on that invisibility, also a bad ult, that is way too easy to dodge.
C Tier, she is just not good, invisibility is easily countered and she also doesn't have the health to compensate.
She is only useful in a few matchups and situations, just pick Maeve or Evie when you wanna play flank, instead of Skye.
She is pretty hot though.
