Below is the updated Madden 23 ability tier list by GutFoxx, ranking the X-Factor and Superstar abilities in both offensive and defensive lines from the best to the worst. What to note is that the same ability in different positions may have different effects, so you will probably see it in more than one tier, in addition, considering the AP cost, the overall rank of some abilities may be lower than you think, for example, Gunslinger would be an S-tier ability, the issue is that it's too expensive.
