Investing in your heroes in Kingshot is crucial but there are some pitfalls that you have to know about or you can end up slowing your progress down by a lot – with every generation your server grows, new heroes will be added and investing in Exclusive Gear of a hero that becomes less useful might be a huge mistake.
For this reason, I have created a tier list below that helps you understand what heroes you’re aiming for to max out and which ones you will probably replace sooner or later in Kingshot.
The Best Heroes in Kingshot
Before we get into the list, please undertand some fundamental things about heroes and servers in Kingshot. The age of your server determines what heroes are available to you, so you will see the heroes in the tier list below ordered by generations.
A rough overview of the generations is:
- 1st generation server are younger than 40 days
- 2nd generation server are older than 40 days rolling out on the earliest servers
- 3rd generation server are older than 120 days
- 4th generation server are older than 200 days
- 5th generation server are older than 280 days
- 6th generation server are older than 1 year
- 7th generation server are older than 1 year and 80 days
This means, new heroes become available to your server after about 5-6 Lucky Wheels (every 80 days) and that means that the newer heroes normally will change the roaster of heroes. To read the tier list below correctly, you have to check what heroes are available on your server and what generation your server is and then look at the section to see the correct ranking of the heroes. Amazing heroes on 1st generation servers in Kingshot aren’t that great on 5th generation servers anymore and so on…
But that also means that it is hard to say “this is the best hero” or “build this hero” since newer heroes are typically stronger but you can’t just wait it out until they are available. For this reason our list below is sorted by the Generation a hero is released in but also showing how a hero performs in a later generation. So if you build a Generation 2 hero to see how many generations that hero will actually be viable in Kingshot.
Please also check out our new main march guides for all generations here and also check here the guide for the new arena teams in Kingshot for the full picture and the synergies.

Conclusion
I hope this overview helped you and I will try to add more info to it, please comment below what you think would be helpful. If you have any further questions, please also post a comment and someone from our team will be happy to reply.
Your hero tiers are very skewed by being a rally host, and using one tier for all attributes is kind of counter productive. For example chenko is S+ as a rally joiner, but since she only has 3 skills B as host, arena performance is a bit random but can sometimes turn the tide because she hits so wide B+. Marlin is S+ arena, S as a rally host but D as a joiner since his skills dont stack. Since we have three entirely different modes of gameplay your scores should reflect that. Way too many people dont build Chenko, but we need her for bears and attacks and all kinds of other events.
Is there a larger chart that shows A+ down to D?
