June 2026 Legendary Tier List: What Folan’s Patch Changed

The June 2026 update pushed the legendary meta a little further toward speed, control, and flexible utility. In practice, that means champions who bring turn-meter manipulation, arena speed auras, team-wide protection, or reliable debuffs gained value, while pure damage dealers without a strong secondary purpose became harder to justify outside of niche content.

The biggest winners

Armanz the Magnificent remains one of the safest premium picks for Arena because his 28% Speed aura in Arena supports fast openers, and his toolkit fits aggressive control teams. Any legendary tier list built around practical account value should keep him near the top.

Acrizia is still a monster for accounts that need raw boss damage. Her 19% Critical Rate aura in All Battles is modest compared with speed leaders, but her real value is that she converts investment into huge single-target output for Clan Boss, Hydra-style encounters, and high-HP dungeon bosses.

Admiral Blacktusk is another standout because utility matters more than ever in 2026. He brings a 60 ACC aura in All Battles and a 15% SPD bonus aura for Dwarves, making him excellent for faction-focused progression and debuff-heavy teams.

Where mid-tier legends matter more than ever

A healthy tier list is not only about the very best champions. It should also reward legendaries that solve account problems. Acelin the Stalwart offers a rare combination of defensive value, with a 25% DEF aura in All Battles and an extra 15% HP bonus aura for Bannerlords. That kind of dual aura profile is ideal for early-to-mid accounts that need one champion to carry several modes.

Alsgor Crimsonhorn is a strong example of why HP-based legendaries often age well: his 60 RES aura in All Battles can be more valuable than flashy damage in difficult PvE and resistance-check teams.

F2P and P2W advice

For free-to-play players, the rule is simple: build around champions who do multiple jobs. Prioritize speed auras, cleanse, protection, turn control, and debuffs before luxury nukers. One excellent support legendary can improve your account faster than three average damage dealers.

For spenders, the best value still comes from champions that dominate several modes at once. A premium tier list should favor universal impact, not just Arena hype. Folan-era balance is clearly pushing RAID toward champions that influence turn order, survivability, and consistency.

What to remember

The June 2026 legendary tier list is less about “best damage” and more about “best problem solvers.” If a champion helps you start faster, survive longer, or land key debuffs more reliably, that champion is climbing the rankings for good reason.
