Our Smite tier list can help you cut through the gods as you take on battles with deities in this smash-hit MOBA. It may be over eight years old, but its popularity remains as huge as Olympus. Smite has an almost neverending list of playable characters, and so if you’re battling the gods for the very first time, or you just want to keep up to date with the current meta, then we’ve got you covered with a Smite tier list for season 11 and beyond, detailing the best and boldest gods to take into the arena.
For more even more helpful tier lists, we’ve got plenty to help you out, including our Type Soul tier list, Raid: Shadow Legend tier list, and Zenless Zone Zero tier list. Plus, if you want even more of a helping hand, we have lots of Wuthering Waves codes, Genshin Impact codes, and Honkai Star Rail codes so you can bag some gacha game goodies.

Smite tiers explained
Like most MOBAs, Smite has a truly mind-boggling amount of characters to choose from. This means a constantly changing meta and gods that can fall from grace or rise from the ashes of previous seasons thanks to constant buffs and nerfs and balances. Here, we explain what our ranks means and why we’ve put certain gods in their place.
Naturally, this Smite tier list is based on the current meta and so is subject to change as the game evolves throughout seasons. So don’t be too disheartened if your favorite ends up in the bottom (we know there are at least three Anubis stans out there, we see you and we hear you). It’s nothing personal! As with any tier list, the most important rule is that you play whatever character you enjoy the most, as it’s totally subjective.
- S – Only the best of the best Smite characters make S tier, and these are the gods you’re most likely to see over and over again in online play.
- A – Our a-tier roster is made up of some potent omnipotents, but all of them lack a certain something or have an obvious weakness, and that keeps them out of the higher echelons.
- B – B is bang average for this list, with all of the characters under this ranking only really viable for use if you consider yourself an expert in their playstyle.
- C – We don’t recommend using C rank characters unless there’s a specific reason for you wanting to use them, or if you just want to mix things up a little from your S tier main.
- D – Unfortunately, the characters we’ve ranked at D tier just aren’t worth using, and should be avoided at all costs.
