How Critical Healing plays

Critical Healing is B tier over all champions on patch 26.21: #135 of 226 augments and #51 of the 90 gold cards. That is the average over every champion; on the right one it is worth more, on the wrong one much less.

It gives critical strikes, ally heals and shields and sustain, so it pays off on champions that already use those. On a champion that doesn't, it is a wasted pick, whatever its tier.

It does best on Nilah, Senna and Karma. 13 of its 15 best champions are supports.

Its tier holds in every pick it can show up in (B tier), so there is no bad moment to take it.

The card it pairs with best is Upgrade Death's Dance: if you already have one of the two, the other jumps up your list.
