Warcraft Rumble tier list
Our Warcraft Rumble tier list represents the game’s current meta. The best units are placed in the mighty S-tier, and the worst are far below in the D-tier. Of course, each update brings new buffs and nerfs, so we’ll be changing these rankings over time. Characters with (L) next to their name are classed as leaders, and are especially useful in battle. If your favorite hero is listed lower than anticipated don’t worry, this guide is here to help you experiment.

How do we rank Warcraft Rumble units?
We decide on rankings for our Warcraft Rumble tier list by combining our own in-game experiences with the general thoughts of the wider community. While there are plenty of ways to play and combinations that complement each other, there’s still usually a consensus as to which of the many units are the best in battle.
For example, it’s clear that the three best leaders in the game right now are Rend Blackhand, Baron Rivendare, and Tirion Fordring. Not only are they useful in battle through combat skills alone, but Tirion’s healing abilities keep your units in the battle for longer, while Rend and the Baron’s skills each provide more or cheaper units to stock the arena with minis ready to march.
It’s more difficult to weigh up regular units for our Warcraft Rumble tier list as they can be quite situational, but those in our S and A tiers pack the most punch. A personal favorite is SAFE Pilot, as they deliver a decent amount of damage to a specific area of your choosing on the field, which is especially useful if you need just one more hit to take out an enemy boss. Chain Lightning is similar, but packs slightly less of a punch.
Can you perform a Warcraft Rumble reroll?
As Warcraft Rumble isn’t a character collector, not a gacha game, you don’t have to worry about enrolling and trying again. You unlock some of the top minis early on in the game, like Darkspear Toll and Tirion Fordring, so that also helps. Some S-tier battlers don’t arrive until later on, so your best bet is just to keep grinding the PvE mode until you have a roster of characters ready to face down online opponents.
