Mortal Kombat Onslaught features Mortal Kombat characters that have one of these types: Mind, Body, and Spirit. Each fighter also has their playstyle defined by one of four classes: Attacker, Warrior, Assassin, Sniper, Support, and Defender. They also possess Auto, Passive, and Special skills.
Considering all these factors, this tier list categorizes all characters into tiers SS, S, A, B, and C. Like other RPG titles' tier lists, you will find the most robust units in SS and the weakest ones in the C tier.
SS tier
The following characters are the most robust in this game's current meta. Include them in your roster, upgrade them, equip them with gears, and you can breeze through any stage. Here are the characters in the SS tier:
- (Fire God) Liu Kang
- (Hellfire) Scorpion
- (Wind God) Fujin
- (Revenant) Kitana
- (Razor Hat) Kung Lao
- Shao Kahn
- Sindel
- (Arctika) Sub-Zero
- (Undying) Shao Kahn

S tier

- Erron Black
- Frost
- Noob Saibot
- Quan Chi
- Raiden
- Skarlet

- General Kotal
- Jade
- Johnny Cage
- Kung Lao
- Scorpion
- (Camouflage) Sonya Blade

- (Firestarter) Black Dragon
- Fujin
- Jax
- Kano

- (Cryomancer) Lin Kuei

C tier
The following Mortal Kombat Onslaught C-tier units are great for beginners in this mobile action title. Use them to familiarize yourself with this title's gameplay and to understand the meta. These units provide little to no utility:
- (Sniper) Black Dragon
- (Medic) Special Forces
- (Sergeant) Special Forces
- (Lancer) Shokan Warrior
- (Elite Guard) Shao Soldier
- (Guardian) Spirit
- (Deadly) Spirit
- (Mending) Spirit
- Sonya Blade

- Overload Cyber Lin Kuei
It’s important to note that the Mortal Kombat Onslaught tier list will not remain the same. This is because NetherRealm will introduce new characters with updates, which alters the ranks of existing ones.
Moreover, this tier list only provides a general idea of the current meta. You can use whichever units you want. However, ensure you upgrade them whenever possible; this is the best strategy to win more matches.
