This Bloons TD 6 Hero tier list ranks the main BTD6 Heroes from S to D based on their overall usefulness, versatility, map support, damage, and performance across different strategies. Hero strength can change depending on the map, game mode, and tower combination, so a lower-tier Hero can still be the right choice for a specific strategy.

What the BTD6 Hero Tiers Mean
S Tier: Strong overall Heroes with excellent value, versatility, or scaling.
A Tier: Powerful Heroes that work well in many strategies but may need more setup or have specific limitations.
B Tier: Solid Heroes with useful abilities and clear strengths, but they are less universal.
C Tier: More situational Heroes whose effectiveness depends heavily on the map, mode, or tower combination.
D Tier: Niche choices that can still work in specific strategies but are harder to recommend for general play.
S-Tier Heroes
Adora
Adora is a powerful damage-focused Hero with excellent late-game potential. Her strength increases significantly when you build a strategy around her abilities and upgrades.
She is particularly useful in high-value late-game setups, although her performance depends on the strategy and game mode.
Sauda
Sauda is excellent at clearing Bloons during the early and mid game. Her fast attacks, high pierce, and built-in camo detection make her easy to use.
Her main weakness is range. She performs especially well on maps where Bloons pass close to her position.
Psi
Psi provides strong crowd control and can attack Bloons across the map. Their abilities become increasingly useful as tougher Bloons appear.
Psi is particularly valuable when you need global reach, crowd control, and late-game support.
Geraldo
Geraldo provides a large selection of useful items that can support different strategies. His shop gives players tools for damage, defense, upgrades, and other situations.
His flexibility makes him one of the most versatile Heroes, although getting the most from him requires more active management.
Rosalia
Rosalia is a mobile Hero who can be repositioned within her allowed area. Her mobility gives her useful flexibility when the map or strategy requires a different attack position.
Her value depends on how effectively you use her mobility and abilities alongside the rest of your defense.
A-Tier Heroes
Obyn Greenfoot
Obyn is a strong choice for strategies built around Druids. His abilities and buffs provide useful support while his attacks help deal with Bloons.
He is also a straightforward Hero for players who want a strong support option without complicated management.
Benjamin
Benjamin is focused heavily on generating additional income and providing economy-related benefits.
He is especially useful in game modes where extra cash matters. However, his usefulness changes significantly in modes with restrictions on income generation, such as CHIMPS.
Dan D’Monke
Dan D’Monke has two different forms that provide different types of attacks and support.
His ability to switch between forms gives him flexibility, but players need to understand when each form is most useful.
Corvus
Corvus is a powerful Hero with a large collection of spells and abilities. He can provide strong damage and control when his abilities are managed correctly.
The main challenge is his high learning curve. Players need to actively manage his abilities rather than simply placing him and leaving him to attack.
Silas
Silas specializes in slowing and freezing Bloons while also supporting Ice Monkeys.
His abilities provide additional crowd control and damage, making him particularly useful in strategies that already rely on Ice Monkeys.
B-Tier Heroes
Gwendolin
Gwendolin provides reliable damage and useful area attacks. Her abilities are particularly effective when large groups of Bloons are packed together.
She is a flexible choice, although she does not specialize as strongly in one role as some higher-tier Heroes.
Pat Fusty
Pat Fusty combines direct attacks, stuns, knockback, and powerful support.
His Rallying Roar can significantly improve nearby towers, making positioning especially important. He becomes more valuable when your strategy can take advantage of his buffs.
C-Tier Heroes
Captain Churchill
Captain Churchill is an expensive, damage-focused Hero with strong firepower.
His main limitation is cost and leveling speed. He can deal excellent damage, but his lack of major support abilities makes him less flexible than some other Heroes.
Admiral Brickell
Admiral Brickell is designed for water-based strategies and can strongly support water towers.
Her usefulness increases on maps where you have plenty of water space for Buccaneers and Submarines. On maps with limited water, her value is naturally reduced.
Striker Jones
Striker Jones provides useful support for explosive towers and can be effective against groups of powerful Bloons.
He is particularly useful in strategies built around Bomb Shooters and other explosive towers, but his value is more specialized than that of the higher-tier Heroes.
Etienne
Etienne provides an important team-wide camo benefit after reaching the required level.
This can save money and simplify defenses that would otherwise need additional camo detection. His early-game performance is less impressive, so his value increases as he levels up.
D-Tier Heroes
Quincy
Quincy is an inexpensive and straightforward early-game Hero. He provides useful early damage and can handle several common threats.
However, his overall value falls compared with Heroes that offer stronger support, scaling, or late-game abilities.
Ezili
Ezili has several useful abilities and can become powerful in specific late-game strategies.
Her main limitation is that much of her value comes later in a run. She is therefore more specialized than Heroes that provide strong benefits throughout the game.
Does the Best BTD6 Hero Change by Game Mode?
Yes. A Hero’s position on an overall tier list does not mean they will have the same value in every mode.
Standard games: Income generation, early-game strength, and general versatility are important.
CHIMPS: Heroes that depend on extra income lose some value because of the mode’s restrictions. Damage, support, and efficient leveling become more important.
Boss Events: Hero abilities and long-term scaling can become more important because boss fights require specialized damage and support.
Water-heavy maps: Admiral Brickell becomes more relevant when your strategy uses several water towers.
Late-game: Heroes with strong scaling, powerful abilities, or useful buffs can become much more valuable than their early-game performance suggests.
Final Notes
This BTD6 Hero tier list is intended as an overall ranking rather than a rule for every map and game mode. Your tower combination, map layout, difficulty, and strategy can change which Hero works best for a particular run.
Hero balance can also change with future BTD6 updates, so the rankings should be reviewed after major patches and new Hero releases.
