From best to worst. Based on how much you want them in your team (personal experience no looking up stats)
What will be your list?
Stukov at the top, Deckard at the bottom for me.
im usually the healer on the team. ive had a lot of success with anduin being my best performing healer. however, if i had to have someone else be a healer, id say deckard players have always been reliable in that all i need to do i just pick up potions. worst healer to have on the team (and only from my experience n not from stats) have always been uther. i get he’s great when utilized well, but i play qm. qm uthers r by far the worst healers ive had
A lot of healers are really draft dependent, kind of hard to rank them out of context.
My quick and dirty tierlist of all healers :
S: Rehgar
A: BW, stukov, lucio, [uther], [auriel], [whitemane], [tyrande]
A-: malf, deckard, [kharazim]
B: [ana], [alex], [morales], [anduin]
B-: [lili]
S - pretty much always best; A - can be best, depending on draft; B - average and generally easily replaced by something better
names in brackets ([healer]) - very draft dependent
I would say there are no really bad healers atm to put in C or lower tiers and rehgar is the only one who badly needs nerfs.
The overall strongest and quite draft independent healer is of course rehgar. Stukov and bw are also easy to build around and fit many situations. In more specific situations, whitemane, auriel, uther and tyrande can be very far ahead of the pack.
I’d say lili is overall weakest healer atm, but the blind can still be crucial in some drafts and she can work as 2nd support often; also she’s quite easy to play and that can never be a minus.
Anduin is massively overpicked for how average and heavily counterable he is - I simply don’t want to ever see him on my team (the biggest “oh no” moments are when ppl first pick him).
P.S. I guess deckard could go down to B without brackets or gain brackets if I leave him in A-.
P.P.S. I think Ana can be very strong in some niches, but I leave her down in B because I think most of the players (of any rank, GM included) simply can’t deliver the minimum needed performance on her. Ana mains should put her higher up.

My top 3 and bottom 3 I want on my team
top: Whitemane, Ana and Deckard
bottom: lili, Khaz and alex
I just have bad experiences with the bottom 3.
Best healer is Abathur. Worst healer is Medivh.
I dont know how this happened, but my statistics is saying that…
Because his D saves lives.

I completely disagree. Even if he’s not first pick material, he’s a solid alternative to BW and Stukov. His healing is acceptable, he has CC, his damage is supplementary, and he has one of the best saving ability in his base kit.
He’s also very simple and beginner friendly to play so a lot of players would naturally gravitate to a more reliable pick rather than someone they’re not confident about like Whitemane or Tyrande even though their healing numbers can be extreme. But to each their own I guess.
I would personally rank Brightwing, Stukov, and Anduin on S; Ana, Rehgar, and Deckard on A; Tyrande and Alex on B; Whitemane and Morales on C; and Li Li on D.

I think this also has a lot to do with the player. An Ana who can’t hit her heals for the life of her is worse than a Li LI who knows what she’s doing. I know that’s not what this thread is about but its important to know.

More like Funduin!
The only healer I have a problem with is Lt. Morales and really only because she’s boring as eff and I hate her energy resource. I hate it on Auriel too and it’s even a bit worst then Lt. but she makes up for it big time giving me that rush hitting ppl against walls.
People dump on Lili but she’s not boring so I’d places her above Lt. These two are sitting on the floor and on the chair and I put the rest of he healers up on the table, there’s my list.

he has a lot of heal buttons, if not the most of the heal buttons.
Q, W, R, D, 1, 2, aa can all be used to heal different targets.
Medic has Q with optional Shield talent, but otherwise doesn’t have many tools to save an ally.
Li li has mulitiple tools, but they conflict — serpent only heals in combat so ally may take more damage than they heal, or rather, li li takes damage to heal so she mostly heals herself, even if she can get buttons. However she can’t use her buttons while using 1000 jugs.
Tyrande mostly has one button (her q) and one-buttong healers tend to be considered “heal bots”

Happy to have
- Anduin
- Brightwing
- Stukov
Rather easy to do, there is usually not much of an issue.
Rather yes
- Alexstrasza (Q/W build)
- Ana
- Auriel
- Deckard
Those are by experience often not played as well as the ones above, so i´m usually weary.
Rather no
- Alexstrasza (E build)
- Malfurion
- Lili
- Lt. Morales
- Lucio
- Reghar
Single target/HoT heal is pretty often insufficient against all that AoE spam in most games. With Lucio i just dislike the character. Rehgar is still overtuned, so i´d rather have it on the other team to give that FotM player some hell.
Hell-no-not-this-trash
- Tyrande
- Whitemane
I have no interest in any interaction with this trash on my side, at least on the other i can kill them.
