Plarium’s faction-by-faction tier list, last updated September 3, 2025, is a useful starting point: it assigns S–D tiers and ratings across selected endgame content, but it is not a verified October 2026 meta ranking. The strongest choice for your account still depends on the mode, role, and team you need.
How to read champion rankings by rarity
Rarity tells you a champion’s category; it does not establish that champion’s usefulness in every fight. Plarium’s tier list is organized by faction and tier, and its combined score draws on selected endgame content. Plarium also notes that suitability varies with playstyle and with PvE or PvP goals. Use the dated ratings as evidence about the list’s scope—not as a single cross-rarity leaderboard.

The examples below show what the available tier evidence supports. They are not direct comparisons between champions from different factions or a complete list of the best champions in each rarity.
Legendary champions
Marichka
Plarium lists Marichka as S tier for Banner Lords and identifies her as a Void-affinity Support champion. That makes her a high-tier example within the cited faction list; it does not by itself establish that she is the best Legendary for every mode or account.
Baron
Baron is listed A tier for Banner Lords and is identified as a Void-affinity Attack champion. Plarium’s 2025 list gives him a 4.8/5 average endgame score. That is the list’s own selected-content rating, not an independently measured or universal strength score.
Epic champions
Doompriest
Doompriest is listed S tier for Knight Revenant and identified as a Force-affinity Support champion. The rating is faction-specific and comes from the same selected-endgame-content framework as the other tier examples.
#1 Best Overall
- ZEZTZ Midnight Shadow Capsem Action Figure Japanese
Giscard the Sigiled
Giscard the Sigiled is listed A tier for Banner Lords and identified as a Spirit-affinity Defense champion. His tier and Doompriest’s tier should not be treated as a head-to-head result: they are listed in different factions, and the source does not present them as a direct comparison.
Rare champions
Coldheart
Plarium’s tier-list search excerpt describes Coldheart as one of the best Rare champions, and Plarium forum advice also names her as a Rare with long-term value. The cited material does not provide a directly comparable tier score for Coldheart in the examples above, so treat this as supporting context rather than an equivalent S–D ranking.
Mythical champions
The captured tier-list material does not establish a Mythical example with a ranking that can be responsibly compared here. Do not infer that a Mythical is automatically stronger than the Legendary, Epic, or Rare examples: the evidence supports no such cross-rarity ordering.

Choose by content, role, and account need
A practical shortlist starts with the job your team needs filled, then checks faction, affinity, and the relevant content. A champion rated highly in a faction list may not address a specific Arena, Clan Boss, Doom Tower, or dungeon-progression gap on your account. Plarium’s Champion Tags guide reflects this role- and use-based way of categorizing champions, including Arena and build use.
- Mode: Identify the fight or progression target first; PvE and PvP needs can differ.
- Role: Check whether you need Support, Attack, Defense, or another function before comparing rarity.
- Faction and affinity: Keep these visible when interpreting a faction-specific tier placement.
- Team fit: Consider your existing champions and the gap a new champion would fill, rather than ranking in isolation.
- Evidence date: Treat the examples here as Plarium’s September 2025 snapshot, not a verified October 2026 meta assessment.
Rarity is not rank—and neither is a summon guarantee
Rarity and rank describe different things. Plarium’s Tavern guide explains rank progression through Rank 6; ranking up requires sacrificing Champions or Chickens of the same rank. A champion’s rarity should therefore not be confused with its current rank or investment level.

Summoning is random under game-set rates. Plarium directs players to the in-game Summoning Portal for current probabilities. Its support page describes an x2 event as doubling the chance of summoning Epic and Legendary Champions. It also describes x10 events differently: rarity odds remain unchanged, while the chance of obtaining the specifically named champion is increased conditional on summoning an Epic or Legendary. Check the live event notice and Portal rather than assuming a past event’s figures remain current.
Plarium Support lists, for the x2 boost described on its page, a 16% Epic chance from Ancient and Void Shards, and Legendary chances of 1% from Ancient and Void Shards and 12% from Sacred Shards. The captured support page does not state a publication year; these are event-context figures, not guaranteed current rates.

What the ratings can—and cannot—tell you
Plarium’s list also displays Arbiter at 4.9/5 average endgame score and Baron at 4.8/5 in its 2025 article. Those numbers belong to that article’s scoring framework and selected content; they are not population-level performance statistics or proof that one rarity outperforms another.
The most defensible use of the list is as a dated shortlist by faction and tier. Use it alongside your target mode, desired role, and existing team, and verify newer rankings and live summon odds in Plarium’s current materials before making a decision.
