S tier

Expand Tweet

S tier includes some of the best units currently available in the game. Units like Barbarian King, being a Defender class hero, can help you safeguard the low HP characters of your team. On the other hand, if you need more damage dealing aspect you can choose Ruffs or Ice Wizard, which are two of the most formidable attackers in the game.

There is also Hog Rider who has been present in the S tier ever since the release of this unit with amazing, attacking ability and speed burst. With this unit in your team, the Turbo Boosts lasts a little longer.

Furthermore, Ruffs is also a great addition to the S tier this season.

Character	Rarity	Reason
Barbarian King	Epic	The Barbarian King is a defender with high damage-dealing capabilities in melee combat. This unit’s attack speed gives him the power to take down multiple enemy and world bosses alone, and his tanky build safeguards the allies.
Miner	Rare	Miner is a top pick, especially when you are trying to run a high DPS team. In his Ultra form, Miner becomes untouchable with his ability to stun enemy, slowing them down, so that the kill becomes easier.
Hog Rider	Rare	Hog Rider has a special ability that increases the duration of Turbo Boosts, helping allies enter and escape Squad fights easily. Besides, their attack speed and high damage dealing ability also proves to be crucial for the team.
Ruffs	Epic	This Epic rarity character has high damage dealing capabilities, and can help you eliminate monsters, and units from enemy squads easily.
Ice Wizard	Rare	Ice Wizard is one of the recent launches, and is one of the top picks in the game. He can deal extreme damage by throwing ice projectiles. Getting Ice Wizards in their baby form will also help you get a Super Freeze Spell every time.
Max	Epic	Max is one of the best units, especially with his turbo that allows you to chase down other teams.

A tier

We have units like Archer Queen and Jessie in the A tier. You can rely on these Attackers to deal immense damage. On the other hand, there are healers like Poco, and Battle Healer, and tanky units like Tank have also entered the A-tier. These are some of the best picks depending on your match situations.

B tier

In the B tier, there are All-rounders like Archer in this tier, who can attack enemies, and defend their allies simultaneously, thus, a great pick for your team if you fail to manage to get the top-tier attackers. Suppliers like Greg, Mavis, and Goblin can also help. However, if you want to increase your damage in the game using the B-tier characters, there are some great options such as the Elita-1, Optimus Prime, and more.

C tier

Expand Tweet

The C tier might surprise some players as we have units like Bo, Wizard, Frank, and others in this tier. However, these units have fallen from their top, and are currently used as the last resort or in moments of desperation when players fail to find better alternatives.

D tier

Expand Tweet

This is the worst bunch of units in the current game. None of these players can make a difference in intense Squad Battle situations. Therefore, it is best to avoid these units.
