Tiers explained:
- S Tier - The most outstanding in the game, they have powerful skills and tend to be highly used by players.
- A Tier - Great heroes that are good to use generally.
- B Tier - Normally 'Ok' heroes who have some uses but are preferably not used to a greater extent.
- C Tier - Heroes with poor qualities. They usually have terrible skills and/or terrible stats and are thus avoided by most players.
Heroes are categorised into tiers and separated by rarities. They are placed according to their stats, skills and role based on PvE battles (e.g. World levels, Draft Dungeon) and PvP battles (e.g. Arena, Tournament of Champions).
This tier list is purely a rough estimate of a hero's value and does not generally mean they are good, bad or alright. It's especially noted that heroes of different rarities in the same tier do not equate with another, just a measure of how good the hero is in its rarity. As a general rule, a hero with a higher rarity will be better than one in a lower rarity but higher tier. There are exceptions to this rule, especially if you are comparing a C Tier Leg to an S Tier Epic or something. But it's a good rule of thumb. Not all heroes are flawless, even the S Tier heroes have some setbacks. For example, Rolanda the Lion is pure support but does poorly at dealing damage.
It is advised to discuss a hero's worth with your guild or fellow players to suit your needs in battle before you invest heavily in Talents or gear for that hero; however, using this guide to prioritize your resources and which tokens to concentrate on looting will almost never lead you astray.
Note: Use the find function (Ctrl + F on Windows, Command+F on Mac) to easily search for a specific hero.
