Everything's better when cats are involved, and that goes for mobile tower defense games, too – and our Battle Cats tier list is here to show you which of these kitties have claws. Featuring all of the Uber Rare feisty felines you need to know about from the game and how they size up, it also helps you remember that, no matter how cute they are, you need a cat that has the eye of the tiger.
However, do bear in mind that this list is subjective. If you like a cat from tier D, then there's nothing wrong with putting them on the frontlines. For similar content, you can check out our Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade tier list, Zenless Zone Zero tier list, Anime Reborn tier list, Genshin Impact tier list, Honkai Star Rail tier list, and AFK Journey tier list.
