Since we are done with explaining how we have categorized the characters, we will now begin our tier list. Our list is based on the latest game patch and provides a general introduction to each character that justifies our opinion on why we have placed them in their respective tier.
S-Tier
The epitome of greatness in the game is in this list; they are very powerful and possess abilities that can make you win irrespective of the location and level. Picking them makes your life easy in the game, and victory comes quickly and efficiently, with effectiveness intact.
In this tier, you can see a lot of variance in the stars, but always remember that the stars don’t matter. Many characters in the game are 6 stars, but they are useless even with their special orbs.
A-Tier
The A tier list of our All-Star Tower Defense Tier List consists of characters that are a level below the S Tier characters, but by no means are they bad, and some are on the verge of jumping into the S tier after the next major update of the game. At the same time, some might drop down to a tier below the B tier. But for now, they are in this tier for a reason.
The A Tier is always a tricky one, and here, there can be loads of room for subjectivity, so bear with us on this one. If our opinion varies from yours and if any constructive criticism is needed, do inform us in the comment section below.
B-Tier
These are characters that with moderate requirements for unlocking and can get you past the initial levels with little hardships. They are fairly good for a gamer who is just getting a hold of the game, and utilizing them in the right manner can help you in your defense of the towers.
An Interesting Tier List: Dragon Ball FighterZ Tier List
There are characters with higher stars than the Future T, but it made it in our list because of the glitch associated with this character. If you upgrade Future T to the max and then sell him alongside the yellow orb, the yellow orb will remain with you forever due to the glitch.
C-Tier
The C tier of our Tier List is about characters that are below average but can be useful for some players. They are not that useful in the majority of the levels, but at easier levels, they can save loads of time in contrast to using characters from the lowest tier, which is the D tier.
Like the other tiers, over here, you will see that some 5-star characters are part of this tier. Still, with each upgrade, there are 5-star characters whose powers have gone down; the spade who two months ago would be part of the upper tier has been demoted to tier C because of him being useless in many scenarios in the higher levels, but never the less; in another update, he might jump to the upper tier.
D-Tier
This is the tier where you will find the game’s weakest characters. Knowing them is vital as you have to use them when you are new to the game, and having strong fundamentals is important.
Yes, they can be unlocked easily and are very important in the story mode. Some of them have been here for a long time, while others were recently demoted after the patch last month. There are some gems like Killer, a 4-star character on this tier, but he is much better than the 5-star version, so the D tier is not meaningless.
All-Star Defense Tier List Criteria
The world of All Star Defense consists of more than 30 characters which can be used around 3 worlds, and there are over 25 levels in the game. So much diversity in the game means that we need a good method to categorize the characters in tiers, to help you combat confusion because of a lot of variances in the game.
We’ve made four tiers in our Tier List to help you clear any confusion and to assist you in your journey in the game. The 4 tiers will be, Tier S, Tier A, Tier B, Tier C and Tier D.

Final Thoughts
All-Star Tower Defense is a game where a character’s abilities on paper might be too good, but at the end of the day, other factors like the updates, orbs, and grind make those characters useless, or they are placed in lower tiers. Certainly, this game requires a lot of grinding, and to have a concrete opinion, you need to invest a lot of time into these games.
You can waste cash on characters by not promptly researching them, or you can be confused by the abilities on paper. It is a good practice to see the tier lists, especially on Exputer, that are updated from time to time to save yourself from unnecessary grinding and waste of time.

Ending Note: Our tier list is based on our personal experience with the game. We have put hours into this game, and after a big brainstorming session, we came up with this list. Still, despite the concrete justification backed by evidence, our tier list will differ from yours because human perception is different, and constructive criticism is always welcomed. Still, one thing is for sure: our tier list will help you gain value.
