TapTap Heroes - Best Heroes Tier List (PvE & PvP) with Runes, Artifacts & Talents

I was working long to create this tier list that should help you to identify the heroes in TapTap Heroes that you should go for and invest your resources in and I also update it frequently.

My personal problem with many other tier lists have been that I found them either being too generic to provide much value or listing the same heroes over and over again in one tier without any additional information.

Also, other tier lists almost never give any recommendation to artifacts – and we all know how artifact can change the way a hero performs in TapTap Heroes, right?

Of course people will have different opinions here so if you want to start a discussion please go ahead and drop a comment at the end of the page

For verthandi i thought better use speed/hp, dmg reduce, control resist and dodge rune if want to make her as tank? So more durability? Or still better to put attack? And for ripper 2nd talent better with true dmg? Why dmg reduction better? Pls explain tq

like other reviews, Ripper is a bit underestimated. He should be a A(A) I think. Also the most cost effective hero in this game.

Vivienne and Vegvisir are now top tier heroes:

If there isn’t a hero, it means that he is under rank B?
