Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I can say which ones I prefer, but not which are better / worse.

The tricky bit is that on the edge distortion/compression/overdrive thing that a good tube amp does when pushed.

I liked 2 and 5 the best, I guess these might be 2 real amp and 5 Kemper. 1 sounded a bit undynamic in the lows but otherwise ok (my guess is the Helix), 3 was missing loads of the lows (my guess is the Bias), and 4 was bloaty and the distortion sounded a little odd - I know it is possible to get that sound with a Fractal if you have the master too high when boosting the low end in the GEQ so who knows maybe that one is the AX8.
I predict egg.
The way I feel about this stuff is if you've found something that works then use it. At my time of purchase it was Axe FX 2 or Kemper, and I preferred the idea of having all the amp models and then just picking IRs versus going through profiles made by others. Today who knows maybe I'd buy a Helix and a spend the difference on an extra bass guitar. I don't really want to switch at this point because I really like the tones I can get from the Axe and I know how to use it. Plus I like the feel when playing through it. I did not like the feel of the BIAS app when I played through it, no idea how the bias amp differs. If the singer can't sing no guitar tone is going to save you anyway.
I got 1/5 but I'm still happy because the two I liked best were the real amp and the AX8 (and I own an Axe FX 2). I was surprised that to my ears the AX8 sounded closer to the real amp than the Kemper in this test (including the re-run test with different profiling methodology)
