Ultra Rumble tier list
There are many impressive fighters in My Hero Ultra Rumble, but they all have to rank somewhere, and we’re more than happy to offer you our insight. However, we have to point out that if we stick your favorite Ultra Rumble characters in D-tier, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use them. Tier lists are subjective, so if a certain fighter suits you better, go ahead and use them.

| A | Cementoss, Tomura Shigaraki, Eijiro Kirishima, Ibara Shiozaki, Shoto Todoroki |
| B | Dabi, Mt. Lady, Denki Kaminari, Ochaco Uraraka |

How do I unlock characters in My Hero Ultra Rumble?
Unlocking characters in My Hero Ultra Rumble might seem daunting, but there are various avenues you can take to play as your favorite fighters. Firstly, you can buy Ultra Rumble characters with character tickets in the change character menu. However, these tickets cost hero souls (the in-game currency). Alternatively, you can get rental tickets through completing missions, but these only allow you to use a character for a single match.
If the ticket system doesn’t appeal to you, you can opt to increase the rank of your special license, you do this by completing missions and taking part in games to get XP. If you do this option, you can unlock:
- Katsuki Bakugo at rank two
- Shoto Todoroki at rank three
- Tsuyu Asui at rank four
- Mr. Compress at rank 13
- Himiko Toga at rank 15
- All Might at rank 30
Finally, you can opt to use My Hero Ultra Rumble’s roll system. Head to the change character section and hit the right bumper button to perform a roll to be in with a chance of getting a character stone (which you can use to unlock an Ultra Rumble character of your choice). You can typically receive roll tickets through daily login rewards, the story mode, and purchasing them with hero souls. However, be aware that it could take many rolls before you get a character stone.
Hopefully our Ultra Rumble tier list helps you decide on the right character for you, and now you also know how to unlock them should you need to. To see what other anime titles are out there, check out our list of the best Naruto games on Switch and mobile.
