How do we rank Warcraft Rumble units?

We decide on rankings for our Warcraft Rumble tier list by combining our own in-game experiences with the general thoughts of the wider community. While there are plenty of ways to play and combinations that complement each other, there’s still usually a consensus as to which of the many units are the best in battle.

For example, it’s clear that the three best leaders in the game right now are Rend Blackhand, Baron Rivendare, and Tirion Fordring. Not only are they useful in battle through combat skills alone, but Tirion’s healing abilities keep your units in the battle for longer, while Rend and the Baron’s skills each provide more or cheaper units to stock the arena with minis ready to march.

It’s more difficult to weigh up regular units for our Warcraft Rumble tier list as they can be quite situational, but those in our S and A tiers pack the most punch. A personal favorite is SAFE Pilot, as they deliver a decent amount of damage to a specific area of your choosing on the field, which is especially useful if you need just one more hit to take out an enemy boss. Chain Lightning is similar, but packs slightly less of a punch.

Can you perform a Warcraft Rumble reroll?

As it’s not a gacha game, you won’t have to pull off endless rerolls to get an S-tier unit from our Rumble tier list. You unlock some of the big hitters, like Darkspear Troll and Tirion Fordring, from in-game progression early on. Others don’t arrive until later on, but providing you keep questing through the PvE experience, you should have some high-ranking units before too long.

There you have it, our updated Warcraft Rumble tier list. For more on this exciting mobile title from Blizzard, check out our Warcraft Rumble interview with key players from the development team. Or, if you prefer making moolah to mini melees, check out our free Monopoly Go dice guide.
