Epic Seven is one of the most popular RPG gacha games in the market right now.
The gameplay loop revolves around collecting heroes that help you progress through the story. You can select up to four of these heroes to use in Epic 7’s turn-based battles.
In this guide, we will rank Epic 7’s heroes according to their stat growth, skills, utility in battle, and even their niche uses.
So without further ado, here is the most up-to-date and definitive Epic Seven hero tier list, updated for the latest patch in 2021.

You’ll notice that there are only a few heroes in S-tier, but a lot of them are spread in tiers A through C. This is especially true after the early 2021 set of patches. B and C-Tiers have gained a large number of heroes, making it fairly easy to put together a team that can at least stand a fighting chance.
This is indicative of Epic 7’s wonderful game balance. It lends players the agency to build their party upon various strategies.
If you’re looking ahead to venturing until the endgame, make sure to consult this list as you go. It will be wise to bookmark this page as we update it from time to time to reflect the current meta.
