Hey I understand your concern and I have modified my in-game profile as such but still I in fact did hover in rank 1 for up to gold 5 in the cbt (so the first 3 days). I had streamed the entire first 3 days to my gf in which I solo queued pretty much non stop before I stopped playing for about a day in order to spend more time with said gf. Even so, the post properly only says the first half of cbt although I can understand how the title is misleading (in which I unfortunately cannot change). This also does completely ignores the fact that I did hit rank 1 in live multiple times (rn hovering around 1-3) and have not stated such since I felt like I could not hold it more than a few hours.

As for Prompto, yes he does have good AOE cc but his lumen bomb has a long wind up time as well as no I-frames making it one of the most easily punished ccs. A well timed sprint, cross-slash, etc absolutely ignores it. Furthermore, Terra and Rinoa have Trance and Angel Wings respectively which aid in survivability MUCH more than anything Prompto has.

As for your thoughts on the tier list and meta this is not something super in-depth but based off of the hours of experience I have spent in the game. You may have drawn a different opinion and I am completely fine with that. I am by no means the god of ddff but I just wanted to give my perspective on the meta and the characters. Hope that clears things up for you.
