Guild Wars 2

Im a bit comfused about which class is has more us than the others, im not reffering to its usefulness, but how many people play x class in SPvP.

I know that tecnically, warrior should be the least used class, i want to use the “least used class” but it just happens that there are a lot of warriors both in PvE, WvWvW and even in SPvP (oviously less than in the other two but for sure not the least used there).

So the question is: ¿What is the class popularity tier list in SPvP?

PD: Please forgive me for my bad english

in terms of popularity

in hot joins i’d say

• mesmer
• thief
• ranger
• elementalist
• warrior
• engineer
• guardian
• necromancer

in tournaments

• guardian
• mesmer
• ranger
• elementalist
• engineer
• thief
• necromancer
• warrior

edit: wow i must be going crazy because this posting format just doesn’t work for me at all
edit2: thank you vicious!

ok then i guess necros are not that used in both cases, so i guess ill play necro (i have necro ranger warrior and engineer all 80 so no problem leveling)

You don’t need to level up to sPvP. You’re automatically 80 and have equivalent gear to everyone else in sPvP.

put a space after the *

I think i havent seen a single map without few thiefs in it,while engie is pretty rare breed

Hot joins:

Mesmer/Thief/Elementalist
Ranger
engineer
Guardian/Warrior
Necromancer

Tournaments.

Guardian
Ranger/Mesmer/Engineer
Elementalist
Necromancer
Thief
Warrior

Yup, i guess thats about it.
Tournament teams nearly always have a guardian in it. Yesterday i found a team with 2 well necromancers, but most of the times necromancers are just non existant.

In eu every tpvp team has:
1 guard
1 mesmer
and at least 1 ele, some top teams even have 2
last 2 spots are to 99% filled with thief/ranger/engi

so in eu tpvp the popularity ranking is more like:
1. ele
2. guard/mesmer
3. thief/ ranger/engi
…
4. warrior/necro (very rare)

what i see at eu tpvp:

guardian
mesmer
ele
engin
thief/ranger/ele/necro/engi/warrior
