MCOC Tier List: Best Marvel Contest of Champions Characters, Ranked

We are the (best) champions.

Marvel Contest of Champions. What an amazing game. I remember playing it during my school years quite frequently. It was during the early stages of release, so pretty much I had just a couple of heroes available at my disposal to fight the likes of Thanos or even Kang the Conqueror. I recall fighting in the Arena to unlock the new character that was being offered as well. Those were really a grind. But then I stopped playing. Maybe I changed, but what really changed in my absence was the game itself. Now there are more than two hundred characters from all factions of Marvel Comics. So yeah, I was overwhelmed. But you, my friend, you that are enjoying your days of youth, you still have time to adventure into the world of MCOC. So here is the Tier List of the Best Marvel Contest of Champions characters.

Tier List: Best Marvel Contest of Champions Characters

In order to understand, we will have each tier divided in its own section and in each tier, every type of hero will be grouped with their peers (cosmic, science, mutant, etc.) We will first explain each tier and then begin ranking the best Marvel Contest of Champions characters.

  • S-Tier: la crème de la crème of MCOC. These fighters are above all the rest thanks to their unique abilities, and their few counters.
  • A-Tier: great characters that can still give everyone a good fight, but are just a step behind the guys above.
  • B-Tier: really mild characters, neither terrible nor great. A little above average, I would say, but don’t get your hopes up with these.
  • C-Tier: really bland characters. If you have your favorite character in here, you will have to invest a lot in order to have a decent fight.
  • D-Tier: simply not worth your effort or your time. These are the type of characters that, when you get the, you say “oh man”.
