Building a monster in Monster Never Cry is a long process and a long-term commitment, so you want to pick the ones that are worth it and I wanted to give you a overview of how the different monsters perform later in the game which should be a good indication for you which ones to invest in rather than picking ones that will not be useful later.
So, don’t pump all your resources in the first heroes you pull and rather wait for the ones that will make your progress and carry in the long run.
What Monsters Are Worth Building in Monster Never Cry?
Rarity is a big indicator in Monster Never Cry but there are also some lower-rarity monsters that are quite viable in the late- and end-game parts of the game.
Below you find my first version of the tier list that I will gradually expand so if you want to see something added just drop a comment below.

Vespa
S+
Amazing with the charm that will make her turn any team against themselves even on high deficits which is key in later stages. I can assure you building her is an invest but one that will carry you a long time..
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/Support
Octasia
S+
Great healing and shielding is useful basically everywhere and she does so well from early to late game.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Support
Lilith
S+
AoE damage is nice and stealing attack is sweet as well - one of my favorite heroes in Monster Never Cry and one that you will love in every stage of the game.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Zenobia
S+
The reviving is so crazy strong and useful no matter what mode you're in..
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/DPS
Synderhelden
S+
Amazing damage but can be a glasscannon if not supported well - still, you need the damage often enough and support is mandatory the further you progress so I am am very confident that the top tier applies here.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Avanzo
S+
Extremely useful with the invicibility kicking in if you go against burst comps or you deal with higher deficits in late game..
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/DPS
Coronis
S+
Just the fear ability makes it a great hero and one that will help you out in tough spots or against annoying setups so much with literally little to counter against..
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Undine
S+
Can be sometimes a little squishy when missing ult but overall still an incredible strong monster in the game and the further you get the more you have to deal with the RNG effect overall anyway.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Dullahan
S
The taunting and disruption of enemy formations make him really useful and not just gainst certain comps - ultimately a monster that wil do so much for you.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/Assassin
Dracula
S
Wild damage, hits all enemies and deals true damage which becomes more important against higher deficts later but also against setups that use high def.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/Assassin
Kukulkan
S
Incredible useful support in all means and works in pretty much all teams and all situations so well.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Support
Sarcophagurl
S
Very nice espcially with the knockback effect that is so annyoing for the enemy to deal with and also can release a lot of pressure for your team.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank
Shipshark
S
Very useful for the crowd control, not so much for the damage but the further you progress the more important cc gets.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Reddy
S
Great tank with strong shielding that is quite universally working for frontline start to endgame.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank
Mischa
S
Strong assassin but also needs support or will be a glass cannon. Still, a hero that you can use so well once you have a strong support hero in your team and in late game support is strong anyway.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Assassin
Nafitha
A+
Damage and support are both good and I like th hybrid role here. I am normally not the biggest fan of monsters that do multiple roles as they normally won't work, but Nafitha does.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS/Support
Gurnius
A+
Solid damage and good support make him a great filler in many teams although not outstanding monster on his own in Monster Never Cry, his versatility and universality is so great..
Rarity:Legendary
Position:DPS/Support
Oul
A
Strong because the stats as Hellfire hero is high, but compared to other Hellfire heroes he falls off as his role is not really shaped well in Monster Never Cry. Still a strong and working monster, don't get me wrong, but compared to the top ones and the invest to build I would prefer others.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank/Support
Barend
A
Not neccessarily bad but I wouldn't build him ith so many other Hellfire rarity heroes being so much better - his kit simply is wonky for a Hellfire hero and other Legendary heroes can keep up with him.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:DPS
Jarm
A
I am not the biggest fan of him simply as I believe healing should be a support hero job and his self-heal makes him stand up but there is only little he contributes for the team other than just keeping himself alive.
Rarity:Hellfire
Position:Tank
Loki
A
Great and even useful at the very highest stages of the game so investing and building early on is something that is really useful for your progress in Monster Never Cry.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:Assassin
Horace
A
Provides a lot of shielding and survivability for your team and as most of it scales in target, works also late game with hellfire rarity heroes.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:Support
Adlington
A
Falls a bit off as tank later but before that and in earlier stages a tank that does well and even deals quite some damage.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:Tank
Siren
A
Great support, espcially putting the enemy with the highest attack into sleep is so useful in several critical stages.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:Support
Sylph
A
Nice damage and devouring is also really nice and helpful.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:DPS
Haborym
B+
As epic hero not really able to stay up in end game but overall still a good carry ealier.
Rarity:Epic
Position:Assassin
Guardian I
B+
AS epic tank not able to keep up in endgame but up to there works actually.
Rarity:Epic
Position:Tank
Knightomaton
B
Alright but will fall off in endgame, espcially as tank when the deficits get higher.
Rarity:Legendary
Position:Tank
Sadora
B
If need to reduce enemy healing as a niche fit hero alright.
Rarity:Epic
Position:DPS
Conclusion
This list is hopefully a good start for you to pick your monsters in Monster Never Cry that you invest in that will carry you in the long run without setting you back – please mind, the ones you don’t see on the list are not really worth investing so you rather want to use them until you can replace them with the ones on the list that are worth it.
This is the best well organized tier list I’ve seen for this game. It really helped me out big time. Thanks you!
Thanks 🙂 Recommendations for rune and glyphs are coming soon!
