This Idle Heroes tier list has been curated by veteran Idle Heroes PvE and top-ranked PvP players.
We’ve done everything we can to ensure that this is the best Idle Heroes tier list on the net and that it has everything you need for success.
Idle Heroes Best Heroes
This is not just an Idle Heroes 5-star tier list or an Idle Heroes 10-star tier list. We have ensured that our tier list is based on strength, not stars.
SS-Tier Heroes will practically be God Tier status.
D-tier holds Heroes that you will want to avoid at all costs as they are not worth the time to level up.

Idle Heroes PvP Tier List
PvP is all about disruption and healing. The best Idle Hero units have ample Life-steal, and/or the ability to completely shut down enemy DPS.
Instead of picking high-tier heroes at random for your PvP team, remember to strike a balance.
Too much DPS and your team will be melted before they can do damage. Too much healing and your team will have no-kill potential.

Idle Heroes PvE Tier List
PvE is where the damage is dealt! Most high-tier PvE units are either going to be dealing major AOE or single target damage.
If they’re not dealing damage, they’re increasing the damage dealt via buffs. As always, this tier list assumes that all of your heroes are maxed out in levels.

How to Use Our Idle Heroes Tier List
Strike the Balance
We’ve said it a couple of times now, but your team must have the right composition.
It is especially critical during PvP fights, since your opponent will have a min/max’d team comp, and if your team is lacking a role it will be doomed from the start.
PvE has a bit more leeway since you will be facing off against Ai. This is where you can experiment with unique compositions and weaker units.
Star Player
Not everyone can have a team full of the best heroes in Idle Heroes. It takes a lot of time to level up, and max out units.
With that said, your team should have one or two units that are in the SS tier. The rest of your team can be made up of smaller players until you can grab another high-tier unit.
It’s better to have one or two SS-tier and some C tiers, than a team full of B tiers.
Max out Units
Our Idle Heroes ranking assumes that your units are maxed out. It doesn’t matter if your units are all SS tier or all F tier, you must put in the work to level them up.
Level 40 is the max level a unit can reach in Idle Heroes, and that’s the level you want every single hero on your team to be if you want to succeed.
You may have success in PvE with an underpowered team, but PvP will be nearly impossible.
Idle Heroes Best Attackers
Attackers have pretty much the same role in PvP as they do in PvE. AOE is a bit more important in PvE, and PvP favors single-target burst damage a little more.
However, these are just rules of thumb and can be played with a little bit depending on your team comp and personal preference.
Scarlet Queen Halora
Scarlet Queen Halora has some of the best damage in the game. She can melt enemy teams, which makes her fantastic for PvP or PvE.
Halora is the best of every world. Not only does she have massive damage, she also has incredible debuffs. She can inflict bleeding on enemies, as well as shut down their crit chance completely.
Scarlet Queen Halora is the best hero in Idle Heroes, hands down.
Delacium
Delacium may be the best DPS for Idle Heroes PvE. His passive deals damage to random enemies, which is not as desired in PvP but is great against AI teams.
Delacium’s damage scales with enemy debuffs, so he’s the perfect star to build a team around. Bring Delacium with heroes that debuff enemies and they’ll synergize perfectly and stomp any PvE challenge.
Idle Heroes Best Tanks
Tanks, in general, are not super popular in Idle Heroes. We think they are a bit underrated though, as a strong Tank can make a team.
In Idle Heroes, the top-ranked Tanks will also be able to deal massive damage and/or buff their whole team.
Garuda
Garuda is a well-rounded tank fit for any PvE team that you create. Play around her Feather Blade and take advantage of her innate defense stats.
Tanks are not very Meta in PvP at the moment, but if you want to experiment, Garuda is probably the tank you’ll want to take.
Sigmund
Sigmund is technically a tank, but he packs insane damage at the same time. Thanks to Counter Attack, Sigmund can absolutely destroy any unit that attacks him.
Note that Counter Attack only works against units with less armor than him, but in our experience that will be most units.
Sigmund excels in both PvE and PvP. PvP players are more likely to have an answer for him, but overall he is the best Tank in Idle Heroes.
Idle Heroes Best Supports
Supports play three major roles in Idle Heroes. They heal, they buff, and they debuff. What kind of Support you want depends on your goals for Idle Heroes.
In PvP sustain is essential, while in PvE buffing and debuffing units will be the difference between victory and defeat. With that being said, these traits do crossover quite a bit between the two game modes.
Heart Watcher
We talked about how important damage buffing is, especially in PvE. Heart Watcher has the best damage buffing in Idle Heroes. She increases damage by debuffing enemy defenses.
Heart Watcher is so powerful that almost every late-game PvE player will have her on their team.
Amen-Ra
We gave you the best PvE support in Idle Heroes. Now, here’s the best PvP support. She is so strong because she can disable all enemy heroes, as well as fully heal her entire team.
Healing and disabling are the keys to victory in PvP and Amen-Ra does both extremely well.
And that’s about it as far as any Idle Heroes tier list can go. Get the best out of it!
