Ranked Lists and Tier Lists evolved from fighting game communities where characters were categorized based on competitive viability. These lists eventually transcended gaming to become a staple of internet culture, used to debate everything from fast-food chains to pop culture icons. The visual format typically features categories from S-Tier down to F-Tier, allowing users to express strong opinions in a visually digestible way. On social media, these memes spark endless debates, as presenting subjective opinions as ranked facts is a guaranteed way to drive engagement and viral controversy.
