Outcome Memories Recreation Survivor Tier List
This list is for Recreation’s eight-player servers, not for original OM’s packed chaos. A character that hid in a 20-person stampede can look like trash when four teammates are watching you miss a counter.
Ranks assume you know PC controls and the ring timing from the escape guide. They also assume the executioner is competent. If the killer is friendly, every tier is S. For the other side of the board, use the executioner tier list.
Current ladder
| Tier | Survivors | Why |
|---|---|---|
| S | Mighty, Metal Sonic, Sonic | Peel, HP, and dodge still decide Recreation rounds. |
| A | Tails, Knuckles, Silver | Info, counter, and vertical tools travel across maps. |
| B | Blaze, Eggman, Amy | Win rounds, lose them louder when misplayed. |
| C | Cream, joke picks (Meowl, Steve) | Need a team or a meme lobby. Cream is C until she has someone to heal. |
Why Mighty sits at the top here
Original OM never fully owned an armadillo whose Protect converts an executioner M1 into a stun and whose Throw deletes positioning. Recreation did. On void maps he is also a movement character because of wall climb. That combination is unfair in the fun way. Details and vod timestamps live in the Mighty guide.
Why Cream is not automatic S
Heals are strongest before LMS, not during it. In a small lobby, the executioner can just kill the medic first. Cream players who hide for 90 seconds and then try to be a hero at 1:20 are why people flame the character. Play her as a shadow for Metal or Knuckles, not as a solo queue comfort pick. Kit numbers still live on the survivors page.
Map modifiers
Silver climbs on Green Hill because height exists. Mighty climbs on Not Perfect V2 because the void exists. Tails climbs the information ladder on Mystic Cave. Sonic is stable everywhere because dodge does not care about architecture. If a restart nerfs Throw or Protect, this table will move Mighty before we argue about lore. Until then, pick for the map rotation you are about to play, not for Twitter thumbnails.
Eight-player math is why Cream is not automatic S. Heals are strongest before LMS. In a small lobby the executioner can just kill the medic first. Amy’s tarot can brick a round that Sonic would have stall-won. Eggman looks like free food and then double-jumps a grab — until the void on Not Perfect disagrees. Read kits on the survivors page, then ask the matchup tool about the actual executioner on the board. Rankings without a killer name are lobby cosplay.
There is still no code that grants an S-tier main. The codes status is empty. Farm Rings, finish the ring, win LMS. Mobile ranks shift down one tier for counter kits — see mobile controls. PC ranks assume you already toggled sprint on PC controls. If you only came here to argue Mighty versus Sonic, both are S, and both lose to a coordinated Tripwire if nobody peels.
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers for the searches that actually land here.
Is this tier list for original Outcome Memories?
No. It is tuned for Recreation’s eight-player OvA and extra kits like Mighty.
Why is Sonic still high?
Dodge meter still buys mistakes. Beginners climb faster on Sonic than on Amy.
Where would Super Sonic as a survivor go?
Unstable. Rework footage looks S until the next restart. We do not rank patch-night toys as gospel.
Should I always instalock Mighty?
Only if you will actually Protect other people. A selfish Mighty is a worse Knuckles.
