We’ve compiled the ultimate Raid Shadow Legends tier list, organized by rarity (Legendary, Epic, Rare). Win by gathering the best champions in the game!
Players embark on an epic mission to clear the world of scourge and save the realm in Raid: Shadow Legends. You’ll be gathering Champions for your army as part of your quest.
While all of these Champions are battle-ready, some are more powerful than others in combat. This tier list will act as a ranking system for the almost 400 Champions in the game.
The rankings below are accurate to the current meta of the game, thus they’ll be useful to both veteran and new players.
Having a thorough understanding of the system is essential.
You must become acquainted with Raid: Shadow Legends’ affinities in order to succeed in battle. There are four affinities in all, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks.
| Affinity | Strong Against | Weak To |
| Magic | Spirit | Strength |
| Spirit | Strength | Magic |
| Strength | Magic | Spirit |
| Void | None | None |
Champions have affinities, but they also have a certain role that they fulfill, which is:
- Attack – These are your DPS units, which can do a lot of damage to your opponents.
- Defense – These units provide a boost to your group and are quite useful in battle.
- HP – These are the units that make up your tank. They’re useful for absorbing damage from foes and allowing your attackers to move about freely.
- Support – They concentrate on healing and ensuring the survival of your party.
This information will be contained in columns in the tier list. It’s critical to keep them in mind while you assemble your roster, along with the unit’s ranking, for the best outcomes.
There are different tier lists for each rarity group.
Diversification among rarity groupings is emphasized in Raid: Shadow Legends. As a result, we’ve created distinct tier lists for legendary, epic, and uncommon Champions.
With everything out of the way, let’s get into our current Raid: Shadow Legends tier list.
