Are you wondering which heroes to build, use and fodder in Hero Clash? Well, that is a problem many players have so I decided to give you a tier list that is not based by power rank but by how useful a hero kit actually is in the game.
I my ranking below I take more than just the power ranking into account, as synergies, control effects and scalers are really important for heroes once you left the early stages of Hero Clash.
What are the best heroes in Hero Clash?
Let’s dive into the list that I try to keep as much up to date when new heroes are released in Hero Clash.
Update! We added our first impressions on the new hero Manggu who is actually really the whole package.
Tier NEWShields massicely and his (true) damage bleeds are massively scaling by his max HP. Incredibly strong hero to make your team more sturdy and still output some decent damage but needs to be built right and run in a solid team with enough support to keep him alive.
Tier S+A lot of burst damage and her built-in rubberband death protection. Super nasty to deal with and if you have her on your team there is little that can go wrong.
Tier S+She is incredible. Chips damage but basically blocks healing, shield and resurrection on enemies so your team can focus them down one after the other.
Tier S+We'll see how he fully settles in the meta but he is, I am cnfident to say, a top tier tank but also I am sure THE new meta for tank heroes in the game. So pulling and investing here will be nothing to regret in the near future.
Tier S+Meta straight off the bat for endgame but also not a hero available to build for everyone. She will become more available in a while but she is crushing it so bad right now that I actually want to have her on top.
Tier S+Absolutely wicked kit of dealing damage and suppressing enemies enemy and ults and also can enter stealth mode. He is universally strong and useful just for the enery messing and his stealth that make him sustain long enough that he will be on the meta early in 2025 for sure.
Tier S+When he starts snowballing he deals damage like nothing else. Absolutely crazy.
Tier S+Great executioner that helps clearing enemies off. That is often times more helpful than you might think without having almost dead enemies survive and give your team a hard time until you can hit them enough with AoE. She makes sure they get cleane off early which makes her overall a great hero in Hero Clash.
Tier S+She will be meta-shaping for sure witht he amount of debuffs she does she requires a counter that clears them or the snowball effect is insane. I am sure this is what we see in 2025 a lot and if you consider going for her and building her I am sure you will not regret it.
Tier S+She is giving me already headaches with her right-pocket-left-pocket swapping energy and incoming damage around. Plain easy she mitigates damage and heals so your team can survive burst better and right now I see her a lot more valuable in PvP modes where we have our usual suspects of dealing high burst damage that she can counter. If PvP is not your priority, she is not a hero to care much about since there are plain up better healer/supporters out there. In PvP she will be meta I can tell that after a few short tests already.
Tier SWow... his kit is really something. Honestly quite restrictive in terms of team building as you need well-built void heroes to go with him and in a perfect world he snowballs with them - and with perfect world I mean one where you have stuff maxed out in values where your house stacked more mortages than Lennart stacks Erosion effects. He is a whale hero in all honesty and as a regular player no hero to even think about and if you are one of the players high on the leaderboards, well, this is the hero that will make you stay relevant there. That makes his ranking quite tough and I feel putting a hero like him on top gives away the wrong impression as he needs that strong void hero team to really work or he will be rather mediocre by itself. That's why his ranking is not top, not because he doesn't have that incredible potential, but because he is not great without a great team.
Tier SFrontline with support but most interesting is his True DMG Shield which helps a ton against popular comps, espcially in PvP. For non-pvp players rather questionable if you really get your moneys worth with him but for PvP will shape the meta in 2026 I am sure.
Tier SSuper interesting mechanic with the rage, the buffing and the counterattacking. Really needs a very solid build to not get wiped off the board super quickly and as he needs to be front row to get hit to make his kit roll, this is what you need to prepare yourself if you want to use him, he is not hero to min max.
Tier SHeals based on her max HP, extends max HP with excess healing and deals true damage based on her max HP... absolutely crazy and useful hero for sure and works pretty much always, everywhere and really well.
Tier SA lot of survivability support scaling with his own HP and a damage battery that deals extra damage dependign on your main DPS. All looks good here in terms of pretty much any team out there can use him but nothing in his kit is super unique or powerful in ways that you have to get him. If you look for a strong support and survivability is an issue for you a lot, he can be a great pick but i also don't see the world ending if you don't.
Tier SSuper interesting kit with a lot of shielding (well, there are other heroes for that) but more interestingly debuff protection, damage resistance and burst damage protection for the backrow which will work very well here. Absolutelya good addition hero but if he will make the meta will show in the next weeks but I think every player knows the struggle when backrow assassin heroes wipe out your team before the battle actually really started.
Tier SIncredibly strong and if you want to afford it a hero that will do a lot for your in the future. I know, he is expensive, but also the strongest new hero we have seen in a while in the game. He is so easy to plug into all kinds of teams, reduces damage, heals practically all damage taken, and also deals damage based on his max HP which is not on the level of a damage dealer but still alright. One of the best heroes in Hero Clash, I can tell that after short testing already.
Tier SVery important for his damage mitigation for the whole team that can work wonders and make teams hard to crack in many occasions. Very much needed in many modes these days and a hero that you can always build without regrets.
Tier SIncredibly strong control hero and mandatory in Arena to deal with opponents, espcially as you can directly target who to imprison. Not too easy to build but one of the strongest heroes in Hero Clash.
Tier SStrike my initial concerns here. Yes you need support but Belial rolls like a charm here and also his ability to counter True Damage is so important later that he can be easily names along the tough heroes that the Hero Clash developers released recently.
Tier SI need to do more testing but it's a very promising kit with a lot of good healing and buffing for your team so I honestly don't see any serious reasons why she wouldn't be good. I mean she heals and heals and heals basically with every action and turn so I can even see her taking a good approach to take the best healer in Hero Clash crown. But again, more tests need to be done but if you think about getting her now and you need s strong main healer, she is a pick you won't regret unless you have built Yord, then I would really reconsider this.
Tier SHe can burst and do crazy stuff, but be aware to have a solid support setup in your team to prevent him to glass cannon himself out of excistence.
Tier SCrazy kit when she has her gear very well-built and can even shut down enemy teams and outspeed them increadibly. Not a starter or mid-game hero since you need the massive invest to actually run her.
Tier SA hero like him is always welcome for the shielding and damage reduction as we're lacking them in the game right now, period. But the way to only get him through wish summon is also making him a quite expensive invest so make sure you know what you're getting yourself into for a hero that will not be on top of the meta but very useful on many occasions.
Tier SI really do like the kit and the scalers in it, can even potentially ranked higher.
Tier SAmazing support for energy, healing and also dealing quite some damage when attacked.
Tier SWelcome to madness if you read her skills, sounds incredibly overpowered but the fact that her main source of damage is the bleed which is not Skill Damage but Abnormal Status makes her kit a little less over the top and scales her reasonable. Looks quite strong and I am sure there will be things to do with her but I also see her not being crazy flexible when it comes to team building since you can't just scale her like most other damage dealers with supporters.
Tier SHe is a straightforward damage dealer/executer but I want to test some more setups more to make sure if he is overall good. He doesn't provide anything for your team which I always find a tad lackluster. I, and this is more my personal gut feeling here, think he is not that worth it after all and only a niche hero that you will use in certain modes or against certain teams.
Tier SNice hero to have in your squad if you need some survivability, shich he does provide. He is not making the world turn reverse, but there are situations where he can make your team survive.
Tier A+Quite a stat-based defensive hero to protect your team and with her own row protection gears more towards PvP where you want to target specifically. Against DoT she struggles more and is good for survivability but honestly I rather recommend most players to sit her out unless PvP is really your thing and wait for a more universal meta hero to be released and save your resources for that. If you really want her, I think she is not a massive mistake to build.
Tier A+Very fast blast hero to target the enemy backrow for the obvious targets that trouble a lot. She seems designed to take out those metaa backline heroes and literally trade herself for them since her kit has literally no survivability and too much sacrifice that will not make her a glass cannon to not be able to survive for too long or cheese the enemy comp. She will still be very important for the meta to deal with those recent heroes that have been just too strong to deal with team-wise and hard-countering them keeps the game balanced. You will not need her unless you are in the end-game content.
Tier A+IN the new player 7-Day login available and fairly easy to build, shecarry well and is viable and worth it.
Tier A+Very nice kit overall that is helpful in many ssetups.
Tier A+I like tht she deals damage based on target HP but other parts of her kit are more ment to be used against enemies that use DoT.
Tier A+Kit doesn't sound too bad but away from the pure healing there is not much else she provides for your team. She is not bad but sometimes overrated and I can't understand tier lists that give her a top tier since she is not doing all too much that other heroes donÄ#t.
Tier AA lot of burst but needs to be build pretty well to work and not glass-cannon himself out of existance. We will test more but he looks solid, though I don't really believe meta-changing.
Tier AVery funky kit with the way her activation works and honestly I don't see her necessarily too much on top of the meta but also quite a solide damage dealer in the way she deals damage. Not a mistake to get her but if you don't feel her kit or want her you can survive without her.
Tier AA lot of damage that ticks mercilessly and the ability to come back make her so viable in pretty much everything, but not too crazy since the damage is not burst and there are things to deal with it before it's too late.
Tier AOnce he starts snowballing he deals a ton of damage and and stuns enemies which makes him extremly good, but also there are things that can go wrong before so he is not too crazy all the time.
Tier AGood damage and also the energy control make her a very strong hero in almost all situations.
Tier AShe is pretty much the God S+ version of Avilia, so this means higher buffs than Avilia and also more sturdy. If you're not in the endgame, you really don't have to mind her too much. If you are, well, I don't see her as the new meta-changing hero so unless you really want to or see something in the meta here that I don't see, you can actually postpone building her.
Tier AVery solid support to keep your team alive.
Tier AGood damage, follow-up attacks and enemy energy reduction make him a good and solid hero in many situations.
Tier AHer healing should be higher espcially when you want to use her before the late/endgame content where her cc protection becomes more important. So, with that said she is not a hero to think about too early in the game as she can't really be your good healer in the lineup and you don't have to handle the ridiculous cc amounts. If you start struggling with that and Ocean Princess is not available for you, she might be a good choice. But anti-cc you still want to go with Andal over her for that and for pure healing other heroes are also better so she sits quite in between the chairs here.
Tier B+What can I say, his kit is so specific designed to counter the current meta that it will mean they will introduce a counter to him later. For most players he is a hero that you can ignore and if you are actively doing PvP, you have to get him. In my opinion there would have been beter ways to deal with the little trapped PvP meta right now other then releaseing a hero like this but it is what it is. This makes ranking him incredibly difficult so I hope you are reading this description. For average players not being competitive in PvP, he is not useless but not too important. For active PvP players he is basically must-have now but probably will not be too important further down the road so that is why his ranking is so low, he is niche. He will have his short time to shine but unless you are taking PvP very seriously in the game and are one of what is called a whale, he is not a hero that will give you a big progress boost.
Tier B+Can have some flaws but overall a solid hero.
Tier B+Has stun, has damage so that is enough for me to rank her here. She is not crazy strong but a useful package that you can run.
Tier B+Nice to clear up aginst backlines and overall a hero that has some fun moments, for sure.
Tier B+Could be ranked a little higher and is not a bad hero, but the combination of healing and damage doesn*t make her stick out that much and she doesn*t have anything in her kit that helps either keeping the team alive, control enemies or burst damage.
Tier B+Nice contrl effects and in my opinion the strongest S-Rank hero in Hero Clash.
Tier B+Overall a decent hero and sometimes is amazing, but the silence is also sometimes a pain with the requirements to proc. Can be a little higher tier if you want to discuss but I feel more comfortable ranking him here.
Tier B+She is alright overall and can make an impact, although I feel that there is some scaler missing in her kit that makes her really go off as the other heroes you can see higher ranked above.
Tier B+Designed to be a good supporter but she has quite too many own attacks in there that leaves her hanging in between the roles in Hero Clash.
Tier BGreat executioner with great targeting and damage overall but easy to take out and also only a situational pick.
Tier BGreat for any setup when your enemy either relies heavily on buffs or if you have to handle a lof of debuffs. Situationally good is the term, I guess.
Tier BNice targeting and damage make her a great hero in my opinion but honestly she is not the shell-cracker she should be and with the powercreep ehroes being released in the past 18 months she falls off more and more.
Tier BDoes damage but the cool thing is the more crit you have in your team, he will trigger extra damage which goes a long way overall. Unfortunately not really too viable anymore with all the newer heroes that have been released.
Tier BPretty useless on her own but in the meaty team she is incredible strong so that makes ranking her really difficult. I can't assume that you have a full meaty team for her built to give her a high tier here but also I can't just look at her individually and give her a super low rank, that is why she is ranked in the middle since she has relevance in the meta.
Tier BAndrew is designed to deal with the most lethal enemy but then he has some damage reduction for allies and other stuff for protection in his kit that make him not pop in this role well enough for me to rank him higher in this list.
Tier BAnother hero with hybrid of atttack and healing that just doesn't work out too well.
Tier BHer scalers work and she is actually one of the best S-Rank heroes in Hero Clash to actually build.
Tier BPrimarilly good for scaling backrow damage dealers but for that she is really good.
Tier BFor a S-Rank hero pretty strong for debuffing enemies so she also works in end-game and is an amazing S-Rank hero to build.
Tier BAlso one of the few S-Rank heroes that are viable in end-game as he scales his support on percentage so he can work with stronger S+ Rank heroes as well.
Tier C+Wouldn*t call her bad but she is not really scaling for own damage but more enabling other heroes and that depends a lot what heroes you run with her. Then some healing as well, I find her kit not well-rounded.
Tier C+Too easy for too many etups to deal with her makes her not too viable overall in Hero Clash in my opinion.
Tier C+One of the strongest S-Rank heroes in Hero Clash as she can scale up damage against targets and work with stronger heroes as well. I believe if you pull her erly you should really build her.
Tier C+I am not a huge fan of him to be honest and the very only way is when you have to deal with a lot of shields, but also removing enemy shields is tied to soo many requirements that it often enough is not reliably working.
Tier CUsed to be one of the craziest AoE damage dealer in Hero Clash and a great one to have in almost all situations but with the release of powercreep heroes in 2024 and 2025, she became pretty irrelevant.
Tier CNice to stun front-row enemies later but in earlier stages is a good hero so building him is not the worst idea.
Tier CMore useful for the speed buff in arena.
Tier CCan be alright in earlier stages of Hero Clash but actually you don't find many spots for her later where her kit is needed. The banish is not doing much anymore as you almost never have situations where you have one sturdy frontline hero that stops you from taking over and banishing one frontline hero is not making that much of a difference.
Tier CThe crits and stuns make her also viable later in the game and early she really can wreck a lot.
Tier CYou'll get her early and she will carry your team for a while pretty well. She is not meta in end-game but still can do things so building her is not a bad choice but don't rely too much on her.
Tier CSolid to build and will be viable quite long.
Tier CA solid healer for quite a while and although not a great end-game hero still worth building to get you there.
Tier D+Nice for sniping low-HP enemies, even later in the game useful.
Tier D+Not really that great but can work in earlier stages up to mid-game.
Tier D+Good ealry and mid-game carry but will fall off towards endgame in Hero Clash!.
Tier D+Great early but he will fall off after mid-game where his kit stops scaling enough.
Tier D+As a starter hero alright but he is a glass cannon and early you can use him but later he will not be that viable anymore.
Tier D+The stun is alright later but more a carry hero in the early and mid-game phases of the game.
Tier D+With the disarming a hero that can be used later very situationally but overall not a meta hero after mid game.
Tier D+Goo starter hero but that's about it.
Tier D+Can sometimes work to del with a certain hero in alineup but overall not the gretest choice of a hero.
Tier DHis kit is not working, maximum a filler hero.
Tier DYou can use her to fill your team but she is not able to do much after the very erly stages in Hero Clash.
Tier DFill or very early hero to use but switch out as quickly as you can.
Tier DNot good after the initial stages.
Tier DI really wouldn*t invest too much in him.
Tier DShe is not good and you can even fodder her.
Tier DReally bad, even in the beginning.
Conclusion
I hope this tier list helps you focus on the heroes in Hero Clash that will help you without the distraction of the rankings you see inside the game, which I believe are completely done by power which gives zero clue about how useful a hero really is.

Any chance we can get an additional updates for the builds that don’t have best builds yet? And updates on current best builds with everything like (Gem Skills, Insignia’s). Also adding in best teams would be nice. Loving the help and appreciate you all
Bro deliger is like one of the top meta, how do you not have him at all here? Almost makes the list invalid.
thanks for commenting, there was a bug in the list that didn’t show him. He is now showing again.
You forgot deliger bro🤦♂️
How would you rate the various pets? Which is best?
