Tentative battlegrounds tier list

After playing battlegrounds for a couple hours, here are my thoughts. While I think the mode is somewhat restrictive, I love it overall due to the strategical implications of making a deck and banning other champions. This is my opinion on who the best characters in the mode are. Keep in mind I play with suicide masteries, and that this only applies for the current modifier (masochism). Also this is my opinion 
. If yours is different, then yeah, i don't mind lol.
SS = defining the mode, would highly recommend having these champs in your deck, and consider banning them for the opponent if you don't have them. Has either the versatility for both attack and defense or the insane raw damage output to wash down most opponents.
S = very good. Would place in your deck if you have them available. Playing around them doesn't define the game the way that you may see with the SS champs, but they will get a very high level of usage if you do decide to put them in your deck.
A = either has above average offensive value, or is good defensively, but doesn't particularly excel at being versatile. Good in niche positions but certainly not a must have.
B = one or two redeeming qualities. Would not deck or draft if you can avoid it, but in a pinch can suffice, and maybe cause your opponent a headache under the right circumstances.
C = skillset doesn't fit the format. Either doesn't provide enough of a challenge on defense or lacks the raw damage output required to burst down opponents as quickly as the mode requires.
Anyway, hats off to kabam. Although I feel the mode has some flaws, I still think it is the most interesting thing released in quite a while, and look forward to it being official.

Masacre is actually busted for this game mode and nobody bans him, glad to see him in ss tier
My opponent used Storm X as a defender. I didn’t have a good counter option on hand, so I used Mojo because the bulk of his damage bypasses her glancing. All I did was focus on completing his prompts and throwing his sp2 and I finished with nearly a full yellow bar. Took probably 90-100 seconds to do, but if you’re in a matchup that punishes you for hitting or dramatically mitigates conventional damage, he’s a great pick.
Also - Domino is easy peasy when you bring Guardian against her.
