Naturally, Minihouse gets its own tier of course
Variants Tierlist
Sorry, but S+ needs to be a bit bigger. There are so many amazing 2 player Variants.
S+ is basically just for favorites; previous 2 years I didn’t include it but it felt more appropriate to have it just for extra clarity
In my opinion I think horde deserves to go in B or A tier
Horde is heavily unbalanced by nature, although some say that White has the advantage, most players will likely prefer Black. I've seen much lower rated players be able to decimate higher rated players because White needs to play a lot more precise. Nobody's gonna be going around changing the variant though since it's the accepted format.
Hi everyone!
So I made this: https://www.chess.com/blog/Real-ChessMasterGS/variants-tier-list-3-years-later
It's basically a tierlist of all of the non-gamerule variants (e.g., NCVs, historical variants, etc.), please judge me for the choices I made if you disagree, I want to see everyone's opinion
