Mobile Legends: Bang Bang has well over 100 heroes to date from its extensive hero list, but while that's great for options, it also means that it's more difficult to differentiate between the right hero to win with and the wrong hero that leads to a loss. Patch 2.1.61 introduced 19 buffs and 9 nerfs that further complicated the pick. This Mobile Legends tier list breaks things down to make that choice simpler when you climb the ranks.
Ranking Mobile Legends' Best Heroes
We use a formula combining win rate, pick rate, and ban rate pulled from Mobile Legends: Bang Bang stats tracker and cross-referenced with official global rankings. Those stats are weighed against pro play data, team-comp flexibility, and performance across all competitive tiers.
Heroes that are limited to five-stack lobbies are penalized. If you're looking for the best Mobile Legends heroes to use, grab a ranked-ready Mobile Legends account from igitems that comes stacked with a full roster, and get to playing at a high level right away.

Meta Overview
The current Mobile Legends meta heavily rewards heroes with strong utility, crowd control, and sustained team fight presence. Tanks like Gloo continue to dominate through unique disruptive mechanics, while supports such as Floryn and Rafaela have become indispensable picks for their healing and protection capabilities.
The meta favors versatile heroes who deliver consistent value across multiple roles and game phases. Fighters like Paquito and Masha bring reliable damage alongside durability, while mages with dependable crowd control have risen in priority, creating an environment that rewards strategic coordination over raw damage output.

S Tier
Gloo remains the premier tank in the current meta, offering unmatched utility through his attachment mechanics that disrupt enemy formations and provide exceptional team fight control. Floryn dominates the support role with her global healing ultimate, enabling split-push strategies and keeping teammates alive through extended engagements. Rafaela complements her as a reliable healer and crowd control provider, making both supports essential picks in coordinated drafts.
Minotaur brings devastating team fight initiation, while Paquito and Masha excel as durable fighters capable of pressuring multiple lanes. Gord delivers consistent and punishing magical damage from range, and Sun provides split-push pressure that forces opponents into difficult decisions. Marcel rounds out this elite tier as a versatile pick offering strong utility and reliable performance across a wide variety of team compositions and game situations.
A Tier
The A tier is packed with strong, reliable picks that can shape games in the right hands. Sora and Kimmy offer consistent ranged damage output, while Irithel provides sustained physical DPS that punishes immobile opponents. Kaja and Khufra bring valuable crowd control and initiation, making them excellent choices in coordinated team compositions. Chou remains a high-skill-ceiling fighter capable of disrupting enemy carries with precise kicks and combos. Julian delivers flexible burst damage, and Diggie offers unique anti-crowd-control support that can completely neutralize enemy initiation. Argus rounds out this tier as a durable fighter with strong sustain in extended duels.
B Tier
Lolita and Harley occupy the B tier as situationally effective heroes that reward players who understand their specific strengths. Lolita provides reliable shield and projectile-blocking utility, making her a solid tank pick against ranged-heavy compositions. Harley brings burst mage pressure with his hat tricks and mobility, though his effectiveness depends heavily on matchups and player execution. Both heroes can perform well but lack the consistent meta dominance of higher-tier picks.
C Tier
Gusion, Valir, Hayabusa, Yi Sun-shin, and Angela populate the C tier as heroes who struggle to keep pace with the current meta. Gusion and Hayabusa face challenges as assassins in an environment that rewards durability and utility. Valir offers crowd control but lacks the impact of stronger mages, while Yi Sun-shin and Angela require precise coordination to deliver meaningful results and are often outclassed by higher-tier alternatives.
D Tier
Hanabi sits alone in the D tier, struggling significantly in the current meta. Her lack of mobility and reliance on team protection make her an easy target in a meta that punishes immobile marksmen. While her passive shield and bouncing attacks have niche appeal, she is consistently outperformed by other damage dealers and is difficult to justify in most competitive drafts.
Final Thoughts
Every patch shifts the meta, so the safest investments are S-tier tanks and top meta heroes that fit most drafts.
