Just getting started in Warcraft Rumble and want to pick the best starting leader? Well, that’s exactly why I put this guide together. I’ve spent a bunch of time with all of the leaders to answer this question definitively. I’ll break down who I consider to be the best leaders and steer you towards who I recommend that you pick.

Warcraft Rumble is the latest entry in the Warcraft series, and the first entry on mobile. You have to collect miniature versions of Warcraft heroes and units, and create a deck out of them. You then send them out into battles within a PvE campaign or PvP duels against other players.

You can check out Warcraft Rumble on Google Play. We’ve also put together a Warcraft Rumble tier list to help you get started.

Warcraft Rumble Best Starting Leader

Now, let’s take a look at what I consider to be the best Warcraft Rumble starting leader.

Baron Rivendare

If you like undead-focused builds, Baron Rivendare is your best choice. He’s an excellent tank, featuring high HP and 50% physical damage reduction. He deals elemental damage and is one of the fastest units in the game, making him a great option for attacking towers.

His Leader Ability, Army of the Dead, is incredible. He periodically spawns a troop of Skeleton Warriors at a nearby building under your control. This has both defensive and offensive application.

Lastly, his talents take advantage of nearby skeletons. You can swap your summoned warriors for mages, sacrifice a skeleton for health, or grant all of them bloodlust.
