Mobile Legends Bang Bang tier list (MLBB tier list) tries to point out the best Mages, Tanks, and other champions in the current meta. Due to Moonton Games constantly updating their metas with different patch updates, it is crucial for players to keep track of the best-performing champions in each meta, as that helps them choose the best heroes for ranked games.

The developer only buffs or nerfs a few of the 120+ heroes on the MOBA title’s roster. This MLBB tier list was created after studying the performances of the heroes each month in different Classic and Ranked matches before ranking them in different tiers. Therefore, there are some heroes that are placed in the B or C tiers of the list. However, with enough time invested in them, these champions can grind out amazing results in each game.

After the Fighter meta in the last few months, Moonton is now shifting towards the Assassin meta, as seen in the MLBB patch 1.8.78 update. However, the tank mains remain worryless since the latest patch update did not change the power and ability of the tanky champions a lot.

  • S tier: Baxia, Chip, Tigreal, Khufra

  • S tier: Claude, Karrie, Natan, Melissa
  • A tier: Bruno, Brody, Ixia, Clint, Popol and Kupa
