Do you guys like to rate civs based on all victory conditions or would you have a different list for specific victory conditions? I know a lot of people rate korea and babylon high because they are science based which is good for all victory conditions. But personally I feel korea is just too slow in the beginning to be good for domination and both the UUs actually make taking cities more difficult IMO.
The tier list I posted is for all victory conditions though I would definitely say that it would be more accurate to post different lists for each victory condition, perhaps even splitting up land and water maps since so many civs are affected by that.
Ethiopia/Inca/Maya are my god tier because they could conceivably go for any victory condition and be more effective at it than a theoretical civ that doesn't have any particular advantages and is just average overall. In hindsight I could have put Babylon and Arabia in there; I leave out Korea for the same reason you do, though any list that excludes domination from the calculations would put them at or near the top.
