From the iconic Barbarian to the fan-favorite Hog Rider, there are so many characters to unlock inSquad Busters. With over 25 characters for you to unlock throughout the game, it can be quite a challenge to pick out the favorite ones for your squad.
Every character has a unique set of abilities and skill set that you need to be aware of, to create proper synergy and an unbeatable squad. But having the know-how of every character’s strengths and weaknesses can be quite challenging, especially as a beginner. So, here’s a complete tier list including every character you can find in Squad Busters.

You can find characters of various rarities in Squad Busters. Theserarities range from Common, all the way up to Epic raritycharacters, which have much stronger abilities. But having ahigher rarity doesn’t always guarantee that the character is great for your squad.
To help you understand which character is worth adding to your squad,each of them has been placed in one of the four following tiers. These are the four tiers and what they mean:

Archer Queen
Epic
Best ranged characterin Squad Busters. Shecan target multiple enemies at onceanddeals great burst damage at close range.

Thebest melee characterfor any squad. Not only does heboost your squad’s melee attack speed, but in Ultra Evolution,he provides a free Super Rage Spell, which is one of the best spells in the game.
Max
Thebest speedster, and a must-have for your squad. Not only can theymake your speed boosts much more effective, but also allow your Squad to escape almost any situation.
Royale King
Similar to Mortis, but he canspawn friendly units when you’re opening chests. Providesfree Royal Delivery Spell, and even Elite Royal Recruitsat Ultra Evolution.
Mortis
He is one of the best summoning characters in the game. He can revive monsters you’ve killed as friendly units that support you in battle. Not only does this make your squad stronger, but it also makes farming easier.
