Hearthstone Mercenaries tier list

Hearthstone Mercenaries is a popular spin-off of Blizzard's card game, with new and old characters returning for the hunt. The fresh Heartstone Mercenaries format differs quite a bit from the classic game mode, with an emphasis on individual cards over meticulously crafted decks. However, with so many characters to choose from, it can be a little confusing for players new to the format.

In our Hearthstone Mercenaries tier list we've ranked all the most battle-hardened contenders from champions to chumps, so you can try out this alternative game mode with confidence that you've got the right character for the job. The Hearthstone Mercenaries format is slightly different to the classic game, and it's more important than ever that your star card can carry you through battles, so you need to choose your champion carefully.

If this particular card game doesn't tickle your fancy, we've got extensive coverage on Konami's duelling sim, with guides to Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel meta decks, and Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel N/R decks. Or, if Mercenaries isn't doing it for you, check out our picks for the best Hearthstone decks to return to the original format with some extra firepower.
