S Tier

S Tier of The Fire Emblem Heroes Tier List
S Tier

The S Tier of the Fire Emblem heroes list will include the game’s most powerful and strongest heroes. These heroes are given legendary status in the game and are very rare to get. They will offer immense offense and defense with incredibly powerful weapons, powerups, and great combat skills to help you win any battle without a sweat.

With their unique abilities alongside apex stats, having these heroes in your arsenal will give you a great advantage in any combat, so make sure they are on your side before entering the arena.

A Tier

A Tier of Fire Emblem Heroes Tier List
A Tier

A Tier of our Fire Emblem Heroes Tier List will include all those heroes with all the abilities and potential to be ranked among the game’s greatest and most powerful characters. After noticing some flaws in their powers and abilities following our experience with them, we felt they didn’t quite have the competence to make their way into the S Tier List, so they had to settle for a place as the best among the rest.

They are still very much powerful units in the game, so if they are put to better use, they have all the potential to give the S Tier List heroes a run for their money.

B Tier

Average Characters in Fire Emblem
B Tier

We now find ourselves talking about the B Tier List, it best suits uncommon characters, and the players can easily get them in the game. These heroes require very little grinding to be obtained.

Although they may seem weak compared to the heroes of the S and B Tier list characters, with good strategy, powerups, and attached weapons, these heroes can offer you much more than expected. So after trying out these characters, we believed the B tier is the good tier for what they bring to the table.

C Tier

C Tier of The Fire Emblem Heroes Tier List
C Tier

The C tier of the Fire Emblem hero tier is a below-par tier that includes all those characters with average stats, combos, and weapon powers, with both average offensives and defensive abilities. These heroes are classified as common game characters and can easily be acquired with minimum grinding.

Having them in your team is recommended only if you are a 3-star player, as they’ll struggle against the powerful heroes in the prior tiers. They might not offer much in the arena, but they remain a great unit if you are halfway through your rank.

D Tier

Worst Characters in Fire Emblem
D Tier

Coming down to the business end of this Tier List, we have our last tier, the D Tier. This includes all the familiar characters accessible in the early stages 0f the game. These heroes have a very low base attack, shaky defense, and weapons that deal minimal damage; in short, they are the weakest heroes in the game.

We suggest using them only in the game’s early stages, like if you are a 1-2 star player. It’s best to toss them away from your team once you’ve reached a higher rank by leveling them up and providing them with rare items and using your best strategy with these heroes won’t help you compete against the stronger heroes.
