Tower of God New World Tier List – A Player's Breakdown

Hey everyone! If you’ve been diving into Tower of God: New World, you know how many characters are in the pool—so much choice, it gets overwhelming real fast. I’ve been climbing that Tower for a while now, testing characters in Adventure, Arena, Guild Wars—you name it. This guide is me sharing, as a fellow player, the freshest tier list for 2025, plus deep dives into builds, roles, meta shifts, and how to invest your resources best. Skip fluff, keep it real—let’s go.

I. Tier List & Methodology

A. Full 2025 Rankings

According to updated Pocket Gamer & Sportskeeda, here's the current tier breakdown:

• SS/S Tier:

• S: [Black March] Bam, Ha Yuri, Karaka, Anaak, Evankhell, Garam, Khun Edahn, Evan, Zahard, Endorsi, Yihwa Yeon… and more.

• A Tier:

• Standouts include Shibisu, Khun Aguero, Summer Arkraptor, Princess Endorsi, Rachel.

• B Tier:

• Characters like Urek Mazino, Vespa, Goblin targets, early-game flairs.

• C Tier:

• Underperforming units (e.g., Grey, Hansung, Prince, etc.) .

We aim for S-tier first; A-tier fills gaps; B-tier is okay for early to mid-game. C-tier – drop ASAP.

B. How We Ranked

Our ranking is based on:

1. Performance Metrics: DMG, survivability (tanks), CC (crowd control), healing, etc.

2. Rarity & Role: SSR+ and UR units are stronger, but epic/legendary heroes are no joke too.

3. Data & Meta: Win rates in Adventure & PvP, pick/ban stats.

4. Meta Changes: Characters rise and fall after patches—spy on patch notes.
